Got something on your mind?

[Surprised Judith is very surprised and might try to hide the book]
Nothing, milady.

[Too late-- she's spotted the title already anyways. And there's something like an amused smirk on her face when she speaks.]

Are you certain?

[See your apprentice turning red.]
Well... there might be something... or someone.

Ooh. And who might this "someone" be?

A gentleman I met last week.

Is that so? What's he like?

Very handsome. Tall, muscled but not too much, with dark short hair and a smile I cannot stop thinking about. [Her own smile fades] He also happens to be a cleric, a good one at that. [Which means that the opportunities are unexistant]

Ah. [One hand finds Judith's shoulder.] I am sorry.

It's fine, milady. I'll get over it. In the meanwhile, this helps. [she means the book.] But anyhow, is there anything I can help you with today?

I was wondering if you new where the spare parchment had been moved to. I've run out of room on the latest one where I'm copying the spell from the old books.

Oh, indeed, I placed it on one of the shelves. [She stands up and goes for it, bringing it back to her.] Here you are, milady.

[A grateful smile.] Thank you, Judith. Would you like to help me with the copying, today?
