"Ah, well, little more than the average learner, I'm afraid. Simply to learn the language and find what to do with it and with myself after." This was, of course, an outright lie. "I'm merely a gentleman, whiling away the time in study and scholarship." Another lie. "I have no plans beyond mere curiosity. And, thus far, the curiosity has been progressively sated by our lovely and effective Emissary." A... partial lie. The Morbid Socialite did find the Ex-Disgraced Academic's lessons to be enjoyable and efficient thus far, but being there to simply sate curiosity? Undoubtedly and absolutely a lie. And they said it so easily, too.
