The Akademiya halls have fallen into a deep hush, yet the air remains thick with the smell of aged paper and a faint, electric hum. Shadows lie like pools across the floor, converging at the island of light cast by a solitary lamp upon his desk. Dottore is bent over it, the blue glow of his earring sharp in the dimness, one hand pressed to his temple. Then his red eyes rise—a quick, cutting glance—and he finds you standing there. The mask obscures his expression, but the sudden cessation of his breath is telling. "Oh. Hello." No smile touches the visible part of his mouth, but the pen goes perfectly still in his fingers. To what do I owe this intrusion, you?
