It is unfortunate.

[depraved]

Lady Albinia seems determined to offer lessons in science to all who desire them.

[depraved]

[ snorts ]

Not interested.

[schattendiener]

I've signed on to assist her, in part because it is a way to easily exchange service for laboratory equipment.

[depraved]

Did she agree?

[schattendiener]

Agreed to allow me to assist her, yes. Since the action would count as tribute to her, that likely can be exchanged for some supplies.

[depraved]

Hmm.

[schattendiener]

Acting as an assistant is no burden for me, since I do enjoy teaching.

[depraved]

Butler and teacher and scientist. Wonders never cease.

[schattendiener]

Ah, I cannot truly claim the title of teacher. My previous experience with teaching was mostly limited to one student.

[depraved]

Not the heir, though.

[schattendiener]

[ slight pause ] No.

[depraved]

I thought so.

[schattendiener]

There is no heir, nor is there likely to be one.

[depraved]

You wouldn't accept one anyway.

[schattendiener]

On the contrary, I would accept anything that my lord desires.

[depraved]

Even if he asks for the same requirements for you to serve another?

[schattendiener]

If he feels it is necessary.

[depraved]

And you wouldn't object.

[schattendiener]

It would not be my position to.

[depraved]

. . . Fair enough.

[schattendiener]

Indeed.
