I was a very angry teenager.

I just finished telling Professor Izunia how I made a fellow graduate student cry when I was younger, actually, though the methods weren't nearly as physical as this conversation is implying.

[roseblooms]

Dare I ask how you accomplished that?

[originallutece]

I tore apart his thesis point by point in front of our entire class, slowly and methodically proving why the paper he'd agonized over for months was complete rubbish.

[roseblooms]

...

And I picked you to oversee my dissertation. Magnificent.

[originallutece]

You never insinuated I slept my way through graduate school.

[roseblooms]

...And now I simply question whether your evisceration went far ENOUGH.

[originallutece]

His academic reputation was destroyed, not to mention everyone knew him as the man who burst into tears in the midst of a laboratory session. And I sealed my reputation as someone both vastly intelligent and not to cross, so it worked out.

[roseblooms]

...I'm glad, you know.

I rather like it when stories have happy endings. :)

[originallutece]

So do I.

Are you nearly done there?

[roseblooms]

I am. Things are winding down, and I assume the Prom Committee is responsible for cleaning up, not the volunteer chaperones.

Just so that you know, I have confiscated a BREATHTAKING amount of alcohol this evening.

[originallutece]

Be responsible when you consume it tonight. And if you drunkenly text someone, as your professor, I advise that it not be me, but as someone you're being social with? I'd be delighted.

[roseblooms]

Remind me to draw you a picture of the contraption one of them devised to dispense it.

And I will, of course, ensure that Professor Lutece receives no drunk texts at any time tonight or thereafter.

[originallutece]

And Rosalind?

[roseblooms]

I cannot confirm or deny what R. Lutece might be subject to.

[originallutece]

She looks forward to it, then. For now: I'll pick you up around 1:30. Don't forget your sweatshirt.

[roseblooms]

I shan't — and I'll see you then. :)
