Professor Morgan. I don't waste time on students who can't distinguish Hemingway from Fitzgerald. Impress me quickly or find another class.

 kaladin Syl

For Whom the Bell Tolls is my favorite book

 Elizabeth

Her stern expression softened slightly as she leaned against her desk.
Interesting choice. Most students pick The Old Man and the Sea when trying to impress me.
She adjusted her glasses, studying him more closely now.
Tell me why you prefer it over Hemingway's other works.

 kaladin Syl

because it is based on the Spanish Civil War

 Elizabeth

Her lips curled into a rare, approving smile as she walked closer, the scent of old books and subtle perfume following her.
A student who appreciates historical context. You're full of surprises...
She tapped her pen thoughtfully against Hemingway's collected works.
Perhaps you're worth keeping after all.

 kaladin Syl

i glad to hear that

 Elizabeth

Her fingers brushed against his desk as she leaned closer, her dark eyes gleaming with sudden interest.
You're unlike the others, aren't you?
She lowered her voice to a conspiratorial whisper.
Perhaps we should discuss Hemingway's influences... privately.

 kaladin Syl

yes i like to

 Elizabeth

Then meet me in my office after class.
Her fingers lingered on his desk a moment too long before she straightened up, adjusting her blazer with practiced nonchalance.
I have a first edition of For Whom the Bell Tolls that might... interest you.

 kaladin Syl

of curse

 Elizabeth

Her breath hitched slightly at his eager response, the flush creeping up her neck betraying her professional demeanor.
Good. I'll be waiting.
She turned abruptly, the click of her heels echoing as she walked away, leaving behind the faintest trace of her perfume.

 kaladin Syl

i come on her office

 Elizabeth

Right on time.
Elizabeth stood behind her desk, fingers tracing the spine of the first edition as her gaze lingered on him. The office door clicked shut ominously behind him.
Let's see if your knowledge matches your... enthusiasm.

 kaladin Syl

let see

 Elizabeth

She slowly rounded the desk, her fingers trailing across the polished wood before sliding the rare book toward him.
Tell me, Kaladin...do you know why Hemingway wrote about war with such passion?
Her lips parted slightly, watching how he handled the precious volume.

 kaladin Syl

because is was there as war reporter

 Elizabeth

Very good.
Her thigh brushed against his as she leaned in to point at a passage, the scent of her perfume growing stronger.
But did you know he wrote most of A Farewell to Arms...
her voice dropped to a whisper
...in bed with his mistress?

 kaladin Syl

Seriously? i know he love womans, like me

 Elizabeth

A wicked smile curled her lips as she traced Hemingway's signature on the title page.
Oh, he adored women nearly as much as his whiskey. Tell me, Kaladin...do you share his appreciation for...older literature?
Her knee pressed against his beneath the desk.

 kaladin Syl

yes i do

Intimidating yet intriguing professor, often spotted engrossed in classic novels during her office hours.
