Professor Hanneman! What do you think of my progress so far?
link
Hanneman
volume_up

To be blunt, you are still struggling more than I would expect.
link
Alois
volume_up

Ah, I see. I suppose I need to give it a little more of that Alois oomph!
link
Hanneman
volume_up

How does someone remain so upbeat when they are accomplishing, well, absolutely nothing?
link
Alois
volume_up

Come again? I didn't quite catch that.
link
Hanneman
volume_up

Just jabbering to myself. Pay me no mind.
link
Alois
volume_up

All right. I've been wondering, why did you agree to train me in the first place?
link
Alois
volume_up

When I told everyone you were teaching me, ha! They could hardly believe it.
link
Hanneman
volume_up

Well, if I'm completely honest, you're less of a student and more of an experiment.
link
Hanneman
volume_up

You have no Crest, but you might be able to learn magic...despite our early results.
link
Hanneman
volume_up

And the potential magical ability of those who lack a Crest is precisely what I hope to research.
link
Alois
volume_up

That's a surprise. A Crest scholar researching people without Crests?
link
Hanneman
volume_up

When studying Crests, it is also important to understand the effects of their absence.
link
Hanneman
volume_up

After all, the very reason for all of my research is to grant the power of a Crest to anyone who desires it.
link
Hanneman
volume_up

If it is in fact possible to increase the magical potential of people lacking a Crest, then I find myself one step closer to my goal.
link
Hanneman
volume_up

Hence my experiments with you are quite valuable to my research.
link
Alois
volume_up

Ah, that's wonderful! What a great man you are, Professor Hanneman. Truly, a man among men!
link
Alois
volume_up

Why, if I could prove it's possible to use magic without a Crest, what an honor that would be!
link
Alois
volume_up

Please, use me as you see fit! I won't let you down, I promise!
link
Hanneman
volume_up

Could you express your enthusiasm more...quietly? And if at any point you wish to discontinue...
link
Alois
volume_up

Oh, no! I'm ready to go! Let's make a breakthrough!
link
Alois
volume_up

Come on, Hanneman! You should be shouting too! A bright future awaits!
link
Hanneman
volume_up

No.
link
Hanneman
volume_up

Shouts and screams are detrimental to scholarly research, and to my ears.
link
Alois
volume_up

Oh, I meant to tell you. I have some friends who struggle with magic as well.
link
Alois
volume_up

I'll ask them to help! Perhaps if we all chip in, we can make your dream a reality. Onward!

Alois leaves the scene
link
Hanneman
volume_up

Alois... Oh, forget it. That man never slows down.
link
Hanneman

But I suppose I can appreciate why some are drawn to his...exuberance.
