I have a player who just brought a question during the construction of her character.
The player wants her character (an android technomancer with the roboticist theme) to be able to understand -- as she put it -- the "bloop-bleep language of robots," further clarifying that it would be like "in the Force Awakens, where BB-8 makes noise, and Rey can understand him clearly."
It fits the character concept, promotes interesting roleplaying, and is within genre convention. If this wasn't Society play, I'd allow it in my home game in a heartbeat. But it *is* Society play, and it *is* technically against the rules since "R2D2 Speak" is not an approved Starfinder language.
Is there a Society legal way for her to do this?

Idea 1: Well, nothing says what Vercite sounds like, so take vercite and say it sounds like that. (abalon unfortunately doesn't have a language canonically)
Idea 2: The feat DIvine blessing for Triune: You can use a computer without having a user interface or hacking kit simply by touching it. You must still succeed at a Computers check to hack it if you do not have authorized access. Additionally, you have limited telepathy that functions only with constructs with the technological subtype.
