So. Since you're immune, you're in a unique position. This is risky as hell, but you're already wearing SOMETHING made of rubber, anyway; you're nonconductive. Find out what memes they have, and translate them into English for our benefit. Find out what they signify, so we can cut the bullshit and avoid the signifiers. Hack the Darmok.

For example.

[there's the mental equivalent of a deep breath, and the crackle of Psychic Protection going up.]

"Taking on the Silver" means "Becoming a Conductor." So we ALWAYS use the latter, not the former. Because the former may as well be the loving gaze of a basilisk, except instead of turning us to stone, it turns us into extras on the bridge of a starship.
