Michael nods:
"Yes, I have imagined so. If I can say so, Madame Twist's proficiency with a blade is almost... disturbing."
He thinks for a moment just what to answer to the Grand Wyrm's question and decides to go with the truth.
"Well, everything went fairly smoothly. Miss Villiers and Mr. Connery helped a lot. I've settled in the communal area. The location is not great, but the place does have some protection against intruders..."
After hesitating a little, the doctor adds:
"I have some problems with money which I'm trying to deal with right now. Me and some Kine colleagues back in NY are applying for a research grant. But I wouldn't want to bother you with the details."
He makes another small pause and then continues:
"I have heard that you are teaching at the local university, Mr. Heinz. Might it be possible to secure an interview for me? I would be glad to do something for you in return. I think that that would be the perfect way to keep my academic skills sharp and earn something in the process."
His smile is alittle uncomfortable now as Michael doesn't like asking people for favors. Still the asking itself isn't the problem, it's the unreasonable price that many Kindred expect for their help.
