[Times like this, Merlin wishes Watanuki's improvement quickened juuuuust a little more. While there is magecraft designed to protect the mind, he'd rather err on the side of caution and not cast anything that might affect Watanuki's mental state too drastically - his student's state of being, after all, heavily relies on how real he believes his own existence is.
(Similar to Chaldea's rayshift verification system, as it will turn out later.)]
The one you dislike is called Lev Lainur. He's a top researcher in this facility. [A pause.] Whether or not he does something actually despicable remains to be seen. At the present, that young lady's heavily relying on him for all sorts of things.
[Flauros has (yet?) to awaken. Merlin hopes he won't, but if Archiman is having those dreams...]
Dr. Romani Archiman - the redhead - is in charge of the medical division here. He might not look like it, but he's quite reliable. Even if he acts like a headless chicken sometimes.
[After all, who else was able to convince Marisbury to halt his more unethical experiments? It's rare enough to have the ear of a Clock Tower lord, but being a former king probably helps matters along.]
Lastly, we have Olga Marie Animusphere. She is, indeed, a student, but she's not here to study. This facility is owned by her family, and her father passed away only a few days ago. Now, she has to take on his mantle as both a Lord of the Clock Tower and the Director of this institute.
As you've already guessed, she's quite overwhelmed.
[That's an understatement. Olga Marie looks downright ill, and both Lev and Roman are doing their best to hide their concern and play it off as something normal. This is still a public area, not a private office, and they're only here for coffee and light snacks.]
We'll be joining them for the rest of this tour once their break is done. [Merlin holds out his hand and closes his fingers. One dream links with another, in a manner of speaking: several eyewitness testimonies, forming a more cohesive picture to one story. Thus, they have a better chance of walking around this Chaldea within the dream.] Observe the facility for now, but save the questions for when we get back.
[The underlying message is obvious: there's a conversation to be had, and it shouldn't take place in this staff member's mind.]
