Tom doesn't hesitate to shake whatever hand is offered. Living among aliens has taught him to go along with some odd gestures and strange body parts for that matter. Tom gets the message through Aletayria and laughs.
"I didn't mean to think it outside of self humor. I've met one of your kind before, I think." Tom mentions because maybe they are the same species. Maybe not since there are plenty of human looking beings in this room that are definitely not humans. It's hard to say.
{They've tortured our people, my cousin, when he came to help both of our people.} Aletayria tells Soundwave but the emotions are more telling, pain and worry. He may even get pieces of memories Aletayria has gotten from Tommy. The unwilling medical procedures they did on him especially the moment when they blinded him, partially to humans but for an Anthean it took most of his sight. There's a lot of distress in the woman about humans.
"It's complicated." Tom tells them. "My son has visions and saw the point when Earth would be beyond recovering. He came to try and sway people but they're not ready to hear what he has to say. I could only imagine what they'd do to him if they discovered he was an alien. They're not ready for that either." Tom has a lot to say and that he thinks on the subject. It isn't in his words but the jumble of his thoughts that Soundwave could detect through his connection to his wife.
"Different, all the ways he's different, isn't acceptable on my Earth." The fatherly worry is there but also an aggressive determination to protect and help his child.
