Re: Lecture

The Academic nodded approvingly at the Star-Collared Scientist's goggles. The best tools weren't always the most expensive ones, but whatever a researcher would actually use.

But as their attention turned to the hodge-patois of languages comprising the Scientist's notes, The Academic clucked, wholly dismissive. "I can't say that I would've translated "catastrophic eye damage" as "Augen-bruci-wunde," but hm! To each their own." They severed the offending word into its three distinct sections, fluidly switching from undulating German, to crisp Italian, and back.

Ah! So The Academic was going to be a catty little Type-A about translation. Even in a student's personal notes. Wunderbar.
