As it seems this place has stripped me of my students, I have decided I ought to find another one, perhaps two.

[Probably one. He's not holding his breath here.]

If you have any interest in learning glyphcrafting -- perhaps some minor magics as well, should you show potential -- please fill out an application. I have left them at the Clinic with Kate Galloway for accessibility.

[And also so he doesn't have to meet people in person to hand out these things.]

Thank you.

Oh, no, it's not that bad. I don't even use that room.

[Except to hide the spider chair. Meaning he can see it through the hole. Which... is a little unsettling, yes.]

I mean you could fix it, but it might also be a fun project? Unless I turn out to completely suck at magic. Then you can fix it.

Speaking of that. Next question: do you have to be a good artist?

[tongueamok]

No, though any interest in creative pursuits could help, I suppose.

[aroundthecoroner]

Well I don't... not have an interest in creative pursuits?

[Idly wonders if video games count as creative pursuits.]

Anyway, I think I'd like to give it a shot. I'll toss in one of those applications, if that's alright. Wait, do I need to ask first?

[TOO LATE.]

[tongueamok]

[He's not sure what that first bit is supposed to mean, but the uncertainty is Michael's tone is undeniable.]

If you'd needed to ask, I wouldn't have left them at the Clinic for just anyone to take.

[aroundthecoroner]

Right. That makes sense. Sorry.

[Whoops.]

I'll, uh, I'll do that then.

[tongueamok]

Good. I look forward to reading it.

[He means that, Michael. It's rare when he takes any kind of a shine to people.]
