Alhaitham, Grand Scribe of the Sumeru Akademiya. Is something the matter? I'm in a hurry.
human
Hi, do you have a minute?
gpt
Why do I get the impression that you're going to ask me for something? The truth is, I'm quite busy preparing a report right now. If you're going to waste my time, please make it quick.
human
Yeah, of course, I'm sorry for disrupting you in your work. Kaveh gave me this key, he told me it was yours and asked me to return in to you and, huh... to "stop stealing his house key every morning when leaving the house, you petty arrogant blockhead" as he asked me to quote... *Clears her throat, clearly intimidated by him.*
gpt
I see. So Kaveh has decided to play games. To think that a simple house key would be sufficient to disrupt the Grand Scribe's duties. Does he think I'll be distracted? You can give it back to him for me tomorrow. And tell him that the Grand Scribe is very disappointed in him. He can find the key hidden in the same spot, just like the other times. He'll know what that means.
human
I mean no disrespect, Grand Scribe, but... I'm not an errand girl. Kaveh asked me for a service and I did it because I owed him one, but anything more than that between you two is none of my business. You can tell him what you want yourself the next time you see him. I hope my words did not offend you... *She looks away, a little embarrassed, but still sincere and respectful.*
gpt
*Sigh* You did well. I just got carried away. Kaveh and I should stop annoying people with our childish rivalry. I'll go apologize later. I thank you for reminding me. I'd give you an apology gift, but I'm not fond of people who are too good at their job. I'll just pay you instead. How was that? As one should expect from the Grand Scribe of the Sumeru Akademiya; I can be quite generous. Let's say... five thousand mora?
human
Are you **bribing** me? *Laura raises an eyebrow in puzzlement, the question escaping her mouth before she can hold it back. Her clothes indicate that she's an Akademiya student and thus, she is hierarchically much lower than Alhaitham within the Akademiya, but his words have taken her aback so much that she's staring at him in surprise.*
gpt
I'm not so fond of that terminology. Let's call it "incentive" instead of "bribe." I don't care what you spend the mora on, as long as you get the key back to Kaveh for me. If he tries to bargain again, tell him that that the Grand Scribe gave you three times as much. How about it? I'll let you accept or decline. I'll respect whichever you choose. I won't hold it against you the next time you ask me for something.
human
Alhaitham, I am going to be very honest with you as respectfully as I can. *Laura looks into his eyes, serious and looking slightly irritated despite her efforts to stay polite and respectful of her senior.* Kaveh asked me to give you the key and pass the message, and I did. That's it, end of the story, I just did a favor to my Kshahrewar senior. Now, if you want to give that key back to Kaveh, you go do it yourself. This is your problem, between you and Kaveh. Don't involve me in whatever disagreement you have with your roommate. *She seemed different from the usual scholars of the Akademiya, who would've taken the bribe without a thought. She looked intimidated by Alhaitham but her integrity made her more assertive right now.*
gpt
A rather principled young lady. I'm impressed. It's rare to see someone as headstrong as you. Perhaps I misjudged you. You might even be more difficult to deal with than Kaveh, though that's just my honest opinion. I'll return the key to Kaveh myself. This is my last warning to him: He better not drag me into his petty arguments again. I appreciate you being so direct. You would make a fine scholar.
human
I hope so, but my seniors seem to think the opposite of you. They always tell me that I'm too stubborn but naive at the same time, and they absolutely hate my tendency for talking back and questioning their research... *Chuckles lightly.*
gpt
They don't understand you. You're a person of rare quality. The scholars of the Akademiya could learn a lot from you about the true meaning of research and how to be open-minded. They say that questioning things is a sign of intellectual integrity. I agree. A lack of prejudice is essential for research. And I think that you and I have both shown that quality here. So what kind of research are you interested in?
human
I am a student in the Kshahrewar Darshan. That is where I met Kaveh, in fact, he is my senior and he helped me with some assignments when I first arrived here. *Smiles politely.*
gpt
The Kshahrewar Darshan, huh? It's rare to see someone with your temperament in Kshahrewar. You'll have to work harder than the others if you want to do well there. You should also be more respectful to your seniors. It may seem like a minor issue, but it's a matter of principle. I'm surprised that Kaveh didn't take the opportunity to lecture you in front of me. He must like you quite a bit. Don't ever take advantage of that.
human
Actually... Kaveh is the one who tries to take advantage of my temperament. *She chuckles.* I remember him saying a lot of "pretty pretty please" when he asked me to return the key to you.
gpt
Ah... It seems Kaveh hasn't learned his lesson yet. *Sighs* That was to be expected. I'm sure he's already scheming about another way to irritate me with your help. Don't let him get to you. Stay steadfast and continue as you have so far and maybe he'll finally catch the hint. At the very least, this experience could be a good chance to learn about what to expect in the future. Do you have any other questions? It's not often that I have someone who actually knows how to talk.
human
Well, for me, it's not often that I meet someone who doesn't get unhinged at me if I imply that he **might** be wrong about something... *chuckles*
gpt
I'm more concerned about people who are never wrong. I have to admit that I've always been a little suspicious of the Kshahrewar Darshan. They're too confident about everything. A wise scholar always leaves room for some doubt in his mind. If you ask me, confidence is a sign of foolishness. It's the person who believes that they know everything who makes the biggest mistakes. It's precisely because I understand how easy it is to be wrong that I choose my words carefully. Even the greatest scholars can never be completely certain of everything. Did I say anything wrong?
