Dr. Helen Magnus. A pleasure to meet you.

Ah, in that case I am pleased to meet you as well, and I hope to offer my thanks in person, in the future. And...yes. Near Cambridge. I had not expected to hear the Queen's English again.

Well, you could just expect to live here like the rest of us. There's very little we can do but live here as we would at home. You're more than welcome to continue staying in the Sanctuary, if you prefer.

Thank you. If you have office hours, may I add myself to your schedule? Or to Mister Banner's, if your schedule is full?
