A Thought Experiment
No Triggers
Rene stared at her, brows shifting in amusement and he laughed, genuinely.[color=#44b8ff] “People. Yes. They are usually doing one of two things, judging you and ascertaining how much of a threat you are, while the rest of the time they are trying to discover how best to use you for their own means.”[/color] He’d nod slowly, brows shrugging.[color=#44b8ff] “And you can see how I just adore those kinds of people.”[/color] No. He hated them. Especially one, Geralt Manchette who had played the Game so effectively it almost ruined Rene and his family. [color=#44b8ff]“I’m sure between Luce and I we can wrangle up some potential names for you, provide introductions and such.”[/color] There would be a way, he knew of some healers, the new Arlathan Keeper had worked with the Inquisition, but while he knew of her, Rene didn’t have a route for introductions.

Finally taking a seat, Rene would perch on his desk eyeing her carefully. [color=#44b8ff]“Luce is going to tell you, and I might as well do the same, but you need to get some more sunlight my dear.”[/color] He was of course, one to talk, given his own hermit existence. Had he Ettie by his side and the two happily wedded, the professor would be in much merrier spirits, though luck and fate had not afforded him such simple happiness. How pitiful was it to suffer a loveless marriage, as there was no doubt in the man's mind that his love was suffering as deep a loneliness as he.

[color=#44b8ff]“The pursuit of knowledge isn’t the difficulty, it’s the constant feedback of failed attempts until success occurs. Then you spend the rest of the time trying to figure out how you did it in the first place.”[/color] Chuckling, he'd offer her a smile. [color=#44b8ff]“I’m more than happy to, though I will warn you, my own load is heavy.”[/color] A half-truth, he could breeze through his curriculum and grading easily, Rene was just too easily bored with some of this year's students. He did, however, have to keep tabs on his lady, which took higher priority than anything else. Though it gave him an idea. [color=#44b8ff]“I could convince the department to hire you as a research fellow as this pursuit does have mathematical applications. It would provide you with an assistant, someone else for you to gibber your theories to?” [/color]
