Actually I'm in the last stage of finalizing my resignation from a higher position within the Akademiya, hence why I arrived late.
[ and he made a pit stop at the house of daena for some books, but he's not mentioning that. ]
As for my being the Akademiya's Scribe, Kaveh has always been embittered by the fact that I purposefully chose a job with simple work scope, and that I'm able to fulfill my duties without running myself into the ground at the behest of my clients.
So what you're saying is that you don't pull all-nighters and you do get some sleep.
[ It's a small dig at Kaveh, though fond... If Alhaitham pulls out the "I also don't sleep I love studying too much" card, then he'll chalk it up to scholars being scholars.
He has no criticism on Alhaitham choosing to resign from what sounds like an extremely important position, either. Your life, your decisions. ]
That sounds like a sweet gig to me! Pretty peaceful, too.
[ kaveh being a perfectionist IS sort of like being obsessed ]
It's true that Akademiya scholars can sometimes fall into dangerously obsessive tendencies when it comes to their research. Some have even been driven to the point of madness all for the sake of obtaining results or unearthing previously undiscoverable truths.
[ said with the most 😐 face imaginable. he crosses his arms. ]
Of course, citizens of Sumeru that are not students or researchers tend not to fall into such traps.
[ Kaveh needs to learn how to unclench a little. Vash listens and he doesn't seem perturbed, but that's because of the life he has lived... And things he has seen. ]
There's always a price to knowledge, isn't there. Then there are some things that are better left buried, but there's no going back when they're uncovered.
[ Vash says that with a smile. ]
Good there's protocol! Not so good if people getting into trouble, but it's not like anyone can control that.
I wouldn't say there's necessarily protocol. Exactly how students use their funds, execute their projects, and ready their submissions for approval is ultimately up to them. The Matra may dole out disciplinary actions and safeguard Sumeru's citizens, but that doesn't necessarily mean that they will save students from their own research. Many of them don't want to be saved.
[ he hesitates. ]
However, this may change under Lesser Lord Kusanali's leadership.
That's a little... Those students are still people.
[ There's some shock here, though not for not being in the situation where people care very little for others. He's just emotional and a lover of his fellow man, so it seems insane to him. Always. ]
It's not uncommon for archons to have many titles. [ looks directly at zhongli who has like seven ]
And I would agree, although I would refer to her as a god, not a person. [ semantics... kills him ] She and I collaborated and had many discussions during my time as the Acting Grand Sage. It is my belief that the Akademiya and Sumeru itself will benefit from her leadership, so long as nothing like this puts her in danger once again.
Kaveh mentioned she was trapped before when he was pitching a jail for my brother... I hope that doesn't happen again to her. [ Snaps and points at him. ] But she has friends like you guys to rely on if push comes to shove!
[ vash is so cute...... (this is me thinking that, not alhaitham) ]
Until another despot and his cronies are put back into positions of power, officials are doing all they can to ensure her safety during her transition. The General Mahamatra and I are personally seeing to that matter.
[ cyno will guard nahida with his life, for sure. ]
The circumstances under which you were all taken seem far outside of our realm of jurisdiction or understanding. We are taking it very seriously.

It sounds like you've heard much about his woes as an architect.

I'm glad some of you get sleep! Health is important, especially if you want to do quality work.

Your leader?
[ he don't know ]

You may know her as Nahida.

That's something to look forward to. Nahida's a good person.
