The heck? How am I even supposed to memorize that?!

[Nagi madly flips through his spell book, flopped out on a mushroom on the third floor, wearing his black shirt and pants. More like angrily laying on it, unable to keep this stuff in his mind long enough to memorize it. It took him years to memorize his lightning spells. Having to relearn to ice was just as difficult. And yes, his pronunciation was horrific and stilted in a way only a person with a English accent could pull off.]

Does Greek really need to be that hard??

Fine, next! Latin...

....god, I'm still bad at Latin too.

Immitte. Okay, I can remember that word. Immitte. Immitte. Immitte. Got it.

Maybe?

[He finally gives up, yelling loudly to anyone who can hear.]

Tell me someone around can speak Latin or ancient Greek! I'm about to die over here!

[Why must he be so boisterous? Saber is trying her best to ignore him and continue with her meditation. She has been on the area first, sitting seiza-style near the mushrooms when he has begun talking to himself. Aloud. Persistently.

Her formerly relaxed facial muscles begin to twitch when he starts shouting.]


...

[There is no silencing him.]

Guh- Could you be silent for a minute?

[She speaks up without moving from her position yet or opening her eyes.]

I don't know how to speak either of those. [ Hi, Nagi, it's your new student who's just managed to stumble upon this... ]

But is it really that hard?

[He manages to startle a young man a few mushrooms over, bent over his own precious sheets of paper and intermittently muttering to himself.

Evan looks up, his face a portrait of surprise and indignation at being interrupted. However when the words sink in he can't quite help himself at the opportunity to show off knowledge. He calls from his own mushroom.]

I know a small amount of Latin. And I can conjugate -- or I could last time I tried. I haven't had to in a while. What do you need?

My knowledge of Latin extends only as far as being able to write out the letters of that script. Is it wise to share your magic spells around so freely?
