video. | action for those in the library?
[ the video shows merlin deep amongst the shelves in the library, seated on a little stool with a book open on his lap and several stacked up around him. but rather than reading, his head is cocked as if listening, and after a moment, he glances at the video and scowls slightly. ]
If I hear one more article of clothing attributed to me or one more exclamation about my nonexistent beard, I may scream. I understand that I'm apparently used as a swear-word in this world, but honestly, it's only so often that one can hear their own name before they stop responding to it. I can just imagine how well that will go over in class.
[ he holds up a finger, jabbing it at the video. ]
Just to get a few things straight-- as you can see, and as I've mentioned, I have no beard. Perhaps in three or four decades, I'll wear it that way, but not right now. --No, I have no purple or chartreuse or neon anything in my wardrobe, and--
[ despite himself, his mouth is quirking, as if his own rant is so ridiculous he's amused by it. ]
--please stop commenting on my genitalia or sexual exploits or I'll have to ask you to court me properly.
