Ever waved off the concern, vaguely, rubbing at one eye. At least he didn't flinch from the touch, didn't seem concerned -- but he also, obviously, didn't read in any of the innuendo. Not right now, not in this room, not when they were at work. Maybe it would be a different story, in the dorms or on a break, over a meal or peering down off the cliffs at the water below --
"I don't think torture sits well with me. Not even them." Not even with Amory's insistent, demanding hiss in the back of his mind. "And most of the ones I've met have been...hostile."

He frowned slightly, but withdrew his hand. They had just met and he had no right to press further. Also, Ever was either exceptionally dense, feeling unwell, or not interested - so he tried to table the innuendo. Tried. It'd probably still neak back in; it was hard to teach an old dog new tricks. Maybe later though - he was cute, in a waifish way.
"Well, I suppose their might be other ways to convince them." He paused, thinking. "I have seen worse than a little torture, probably; I could participate. Once the basics were learned, it would be wonderful if someone could learn the rest by full immersion, though highly unlikely." He traced the runes on paper.
"Do we know how any of it sounds?"

The last question prickled at him, but instead of answering, Ever slid into a thoughtful sort of silence -- his eyebrows pulled together and his eyes still mostly closed, trying to gather thoughts that felt loose, fragile. A memory that he associated with America, and he just had to poke at it like a loose tooth for a moment --
"I wonder how they're interact with our golems." It came out slow, finally coming back into focus and looking up at Harvard. "Have you seen those? Maybe if we wrote up a proposal, we could get one of them in somehow, somewhere, I know we can send them into monsterland..."

Ever's expression had, in turn, lit up in something like excitement at the idea of a project, something that he could engage in long term...and then died down to a low, unhappy simmer, instead. He shrugged at Harvard, slowly and uncomfortably, as he met his eyes.
"I have some lingering cognitive issues, from my last mission. It's a really great idea, I'm just not sure I'd be cleared for that kind of active duty." He licked his lips, assessing. "Not until I regain some of the lost memories, anyway. But I'm working on it."
Another moment's hesitation. "So maybe it'd be worth starting to gather information and put together a proposal, at least?"
