What do you mean?

[dothelokimotion]

I never went to school, but I had tutors and I learned a great deal.

Also I have a theatre. And money.

[unkindled_madness]

That's kind of you.

But I don't know that I'm interested in pursuing it.

[dothelokimotion]

Ah, I see.

Well, you have time and opportunity.

[unkindled_madness]

I am curious how the theatre factored into your offer.

[Considering he mentioned it separately from money.]

[dothelokimotion]

The theatre is partially sponsored by the Guild. Some of the earnings go to them and some to me. It's hefty.

[unkindled_madness]

I'm glad it's doing so well.

[dothelokimotion]

Thank you.

It keeps me occupied at least.

[unkindled_madness]

Do you not enjoy it?

[dothelokimotion]

I do. I quite enjoy the theatre and story-telling.

[unkindled_madness]

You like dramatic stories best, yes?

[dothelokimotion]

I do. I find them most appealing.

[unkindled_madness]

Are there any other particular qualities you enjoy?

[dothelokimotion]

I suppose I like the idea that with plays and stories, you can change people's minds.

The people of Asgard loved me more when I told them my story.

[unkindled_madness]

Did you play yourself?

[dothelokimotion]

No, of course not. I had another actor play my part. Asgard thought I was dead at the time anyway.

[unkindled_madness]

Was it commemorative?

[dothelokimotion]

Mostly.

But they liked the play.

[unkindled_madness]

It sounds a bit like attending one's own funeral.

[dothelokimotion]

It's fine. It's not like I ever had a funeral before.

[unkindled_madness]

It is typically a one-time event.

[dothelokimotion]

I'm aware.

I don't think they bothered.

[unkindled_madness]

Perhaps you missed it.

[dothelokimotion]

Or they didn't care.

[unkindled_madness]

Surely your mother would have.
