[Mordin is sitting at his desk, with a variety of objects including slender fruit. For anyone familiar with reading salarian faces, he looks quite serious.]

Need for contraceptive review has become apparent. Several local options currently available. Significant improvement over previous situation.

Hormonal regulation now viable. Highly effective but not suited to short term encounters.

[And thus the condom and the fruit come out]

Barrier methods superior for casual contact. Prevent disease in addition to pregnancy. Can review proper application as needed.

Expect all to take reasonable precautions. Also have pamphlets available. Do not wish to hear of rhythm or withdrawal.

Right. I'll consider it. [Luke's quick, dismissive tone might suggest that he intends to do nothing of the sort and that he's simply agreeing to get the conversation over with. However, he's briefly forgetting that this is Mordin he's speaking to. Before he can remember that fact he ends the transmission.]
