∞ 62: Quietly conducting business [voice]

[Locked to Vyse, Yuri Lowell, Sigmund, Raine, Yuan]

Vyse. Mr. Lowell. Sir Sigmund. May I ask how your group rosters are looking at this time? It's been awhile since I've inquired about this.

And we should consider meeting in person. As soon as is practical to gather everyone.

/locked

I believe the experiment is over now. And not a moment too soon; the practical jokes were going stale.

And there are still New Feathers arriving... Hm.

Do you even understand why I'm insulted?

I have a feeling you will tell me either way.

How about you tell me.

You're angry because you feel as if I am somehow secrets from you, while in fact you have been far too absorbed in your own issues. There is a difference between someone withholding information and simply not broadcasting their life story.

You're the one who chooses to focus on my issues. Sometimes it can't be helped, but others, you seem to always find a way to deliberately redirect the conversation so that you avoid discussing nearly anything of a personal nature if it comes up. Even dragging an opinion out of you takes an awful lot of concentrated effort.

I am a very business-oriented person, Professor. [Spoken plainly, like one might if they were declaring the obvious.]

You don't allow yourself to be anything else.

Correct.

You can't keep that up.

I know that. There normally is no need beyond a certain point.

... Heh. But you insist on being frustrating, at every turn.

As much as possible, I do not mix business with other matters, Professor.

But where is the line drawn? That is the question.

Living together is already pushing it.

It's better than living alone.

That is your opinion.

I'm well aware of that. [A sigh.]

I suppose we should be going.

Indeed. They may already be waiting.

Perhaps so.

I apologize. This was not the right time for this discussion.

No, it wasn't. I told you as much before you became so passionate about your argument.

[And he's walking again.] You need to choose your battles, Professor.

[She sighs, and starts walking as well.]

Perhaps someday I'll even win one.

[Doubtful.] I suppose I should relent in some way.

It doesn't get tiresome, winning all the time?

I don't always win.

When this is over, I will allow you ask some questions.

... Very well. Thank you.
