Turning and turning in the widening gyre...

Memento Eden again, is it? Wonderful. So much for the devil’s children having the devil’s luck

That sarcastic tone that never lets up during class . . . I'd recognize it anywhere. All grown up now, Damian?

[sonofabat]

Obviously.

How are you, Professor?

[shoukanjutsu]

Very likely, exactly the same as I was doing when you saw me last. But quite well, thanks. I should really be asking you.

Did ruling the world ever work out? I imagine a punch from you now would send me flying across the room.

[sonofabat]

I wouldn't know how you were doing, it's not something I would have bothered to ask or notice before.

Ruling the world...unfortunately I'm too busy trying to put down other would-be despots and conquerors to advance that particular dream. I can't tolerate any competition.

Ah, don't be so hard on yourself; it looks like you'll be turning out just fine in the end. Nothing a teacher likes to see more.

I expect the costume is for protecting your identity and whatnot?

*Pondering how Klarth defines 'just fine'*

Of course. I can't have anyone trying to get the drop on me as I go about my day job.
