Bassoon, Day 22.

[dredefulchilde]

I'm rather desperate for reading material or new knowledge. Sitting on one's arse, day in and day out, gets old.

We need to establish a library or a school to maintain a free exchange of information and ideas. We are playing into the hands of our captors if we continue to stay weak and uninformed.

...

And, quite honestly, I'm bored out of my skull.

I've got a chemistry book you can read. I mean, it's like advanced chemistry but you can read it if you want.

[dredefulchilde]

I appreciate it, thank you. I was taking advanced chemistry in school, before I came here. Calculus and physics as well. My previous education had been rather light on the hard sciences.

No problem! I still think people should order more books and like store them in a central location.

You would have liked my school-it's hard focused on Math and Science-the name is actually Midtown School of Science and Technology.

[dredefulchilde]

I think I still prefer the classics, but science is fascinating.

I was raised with private tutors, you see. And a couple of governesses.

I uh... have a scholarship.

[ Because he'd never be able to afford STEM school otherwise. ]

[dredefulchilde]

Well done.

[Yes, Joss is quite wealthy. Comes with the whole "I'm over 700 years old" territory. He's not as rich as some vampires, but he has millions of pounds squirreled away back in London.

He sees no reason to hide that fact.]
