Script
Vyn's Office
Vyn: You wish to become my teaching assistant to better understand psychology?
You: Yes. I think that learning psychology will help my work as an attorney! Such as... criminal psychology to help combat crime!
You believe your logic to be flawless. Vyn probably won't have a reason to turn you down.
But what you don't expect is...
Vyn: That is fine. I taught two courses last semester. One was "Introduction to Psychology," which was oriented towards students. The other was...
You: ..."Twenty Lectures on Psychology," a public class available to all city residents. Right?
Vyn: Yes. I did not expect for you to know that much.
Vyn: Good timing. I need to ascertain my students' impressions of these two courses, so can I trouble you to distribute these course evaluations?
Wait, distributing course evaluations? That's not what you were expecting! If you're not with him, then how can you...?
With this in mind, you quickly try to refute his suggestion.
You: Oh? Aren't course evaluations all done online on the course website?
Vyn: If they were ordinary course evaluations, I would not have asked for your assistance.
Vyn: Understanding is the first step in treatment.
Vyn: Psychiatric consults are generally conducted in person to better assess the other party's reactions and movements and to build rapport.
Vyn: Similarly, I believe that it is difficult to discern students' true thoughts over strings of online text.
Vyn: I wish to use course evaluations in conjunction with in-person, one-on-one interviews to obtain more comprehensive information, then make an informed decision.
Vyn: What do you think? Are you interested?
You: I...
You: (Course evals, huh? I won't be able to directly ask Dr. Richter about his preferences, but I should be able to get some information from his students...)
You: (Like their impressions of him, his interests and hobbies, stuff like that. Maybe this will be easier than asking him directly?)
With this in mind, you agree to help.
You: Okay, okay, I'll do it!
Vyn's eyes pause on your face, and then he softly smiles.
He picks up a small, metal USB flash drive from his desk and hands it to you.
Vyn: The evaluation is on the flash drive. Ms. [Player], I leave this task to you.
Vyn: Whether it be for clinical practice or everyday research, practical application is very important in psychology.
Vyn: Thus, these evaluations are of high significance and will give you a greater understanding of psychology.
Vyn: I hope you receive satisfactory results.
Your Residence
Summary
At night, you open the flash drive and only find the simplest of course evaluations inside.
The questions are standard, like any other course evaluation you'd download from the Internet.
You: I thought Dr. Richter would design special questions, but it's just a regular evaluation...
You: (In that case, I'll need to slightly change my plan to achieve my original goal.)
That's right, because you didn't originally propose to be his teaching assistant to conduct course evaluations. Rather...
Not long ago, you chanced upon Vyn's birthday when you were looking up information at headquarters.
You: September 27? Isn't that next month?
You: I said we'd celebrate his birthday together. I didn't expect it to be next month.
You: Looks like I need to prepare ASAP.
Vyn has been taking great care of you ever since you joined the NXX, so you want to do something for him.
Recalling the unpleasant birthday experiences he had mentioned, you're determined to spend a happy birthday with him.
You: Regardless of his past experiences, he must want to make happy memories on his birthday.
You: He'll definitely appreciate a surprise on his birthday!
Asking to be a teaching assistant was but one part of your birthday surprise plan.
You originally thought that would give you an opportunity to get closer to Vyn and find out what he likes.
But you didn't expect him to ask you to distribute questionnaires at school...
You have to modify your plan, but this isn't a huge issue.
You: As a lawyer, I will not accept defeat so easily!
You plan to sneak some questions about Vyn into the evaluation.
This way, you can get the evaluations done while achieving your plan.
This is your little "selfishness."
You: (So he doesn't find out, I'll have to verbally ask the questions about Vyn instead of adding them to the questionnaire.)
You: (After all, this is supposed to be a surprise!)
You turn on your tablet and roughly jot down some questions.
"What do you think of Professor Richter?"
"Do you know what kinds of things he likes?"
...
After listing some questions, you contentedly switch off your tablet and fall into a deep sleep. }} |locations= |summary= }}
