[ Oh, he knows, but he's not going to call him out on it unless it's necessary. Whatever "necessary" situation would call for that. ]

Uh huh.

[ But he withholds any further comment, and instead lets the guy read while he enjoys this brandy. ]

[fantachetic]

[ Not too long after, Dorian closes the book with a pleased sigh as he hands it back over to Bull. ]

That was a satisfying read.

[theirondragon]

[ And Bull finishes off that glass of brandy. ]

And that was some satisfying brandy. [ he smiles as he takes his boss's book back. ]

She wrote a lot of books, I'll have to bring some more over. What did you think? Feisty, right, but in a really toned down way.

[fantachetic]

She was certainly that. I enjoyed her candor more than I anticipated. I'll admit, it was one of the more entertaining reads as of late.

[ Bull probably already knows the academic nature of his attention lately. ]

[theirondragon]

...have you even read any fiction recently?

[fantachetic]

Do you include books of magic from other worlds 'fiction'?

[theirondragon]

No, that's real to people.

[fantachetic]

Then no. [ Of course it's real, he's seen some of it in action. Hermione really was an amazing mage. ]

[theirondragon]

[ Bull shakes his head with a chuckle. ]

You work too much.

[ But he stands. ]

Thanks for the company, Dorian. I appreciate it.

[fantachetic]

[ Dorian can't help but laugh. ] A phrase I've not heard since I was an apprentice.

[ He stands as well, at the very least to see Bull out. ]

You're most welcome. You know where to find me should you need it again.

[theirondragon]

Yeah. [ And he did head out, but not before looking back. ] And hey. You too.
