In a tube? What? No! [Ari shakes her head quickly. Better to say it plainly, so that he understands.]

My genemother didn't want to be pregnant with me, so instead she gave me up to the genelab for experimentation. I guess you could say I was born twice - once when I left her, and once when I was done growing in the lab incubator.

I'm guessing that if you haven't colonised neighbouring systems yet, you haven't got genelabs either. I won't say it's typical, but it's not remarkable on my homeworld, either.
