“You ARE certain you want this mission?”
“Yes. This mission suits me.”
“You are willing to keep this shape and clumsy substance?”
“I am.”

“I will choose a name and a likeness to blend in with them. If I cannot return within one revolution of their sun, I will have assimilated beyond my capacity to return.”
“And then?”

“Yes. Upsetting an entire world for a single organic substance is clearly a sign of their barbarity. We will await you.”
