Filtered to Noah, Serenity, Daria and Ben

Noah, did you have plans to go out to a cafe with Serenity and...I think it was a Godric tonight? I believe the cafe was called Mariposa? If you do, I need to tell you not to go. You know...please. I have to try to stop something bad from happening there, but in the instance that I don't, it would be best if you weren't anywhere near there.

And I'm sorry for involving you, Daria and Ben. I just thought you wouldn't like to be shut out of something involving Noah.

And I'm very sorry to have to terrify you. I do hate to do it. I just didn't think you'd want this happening behind your back.

I've spoken to Serenity now. She won't be anywhere near the cafe either, and she's closing it for the night so people will be safe.

This stuff isn't all I am. It just...sometimes it's bigger than the every day stuff and I worry it's all anyone will see.

No, thank you. I'm glad to know, even if I still don't really know what it is that I'm knowing. (If that made sense.)

Good. Good. I don't want either of them in danger, or anyone for that matter.

It's good that there's someone to worry about it.

It did, actually. It really did.

My thoughts exactly.

I suppose that's true. Actually, now that I have a few hours to kill and I'm much calmer... I was wondering if I could ask you to translate something for me. As out of place as that seems... It's a manuscript thing in cuneiform, and I can't read it. Much to my annoyance.

Oh, cuniform, yes, I can probably have a try at translating it for you. As long is it's post-4th century BCE, as before then the Sumarian language becomes a lot muddier within regions. But afterward the Akkadian and Sumerian are both quite straightforward.

Whatever you just said, it was awesome. I'll bring it by and you can tell me if it's...unmuddy!

Aramaic, Hebrew, Latin and Greek, I can do. This, I cannot do. And I want to see if I can include it in my PhD.

Alright, sure. Bring it around some evening and I'll take a look.

Will do, Ben. Thank you.
