Office Hours
[Compared to the other two, Oswald is much more difficult to get time with. He only appears on school grounds on Tuesdays and Sundays.
Nonetheless if you're determined... he can be found. Most of that time is spent hovering around the Faculty Office. It's almost like the Entrance Exam made him anxious of just walking around freely or something...]

Should you need someone during that time, you're welcome to call on me.
Here's my number.
[Did... did you just... get Oswald's personal phone number??? Yes you did.]
I'll have Megumi update your tablet to be able to use the calling function. After all, I'm not trying to make your life here more difficult. I'm just trying to protect the staff and our Apprentices.

You seriously telling me I can just call you if I feel like crawling outta my skin?
[ You'll have to forgive him for the disbelief, Toddswald. ]
...Thanks, I guess. I, uh. [ It is so weird to have to say this. Threat of death sure is something. ] I know I have a problem. This was kind of a wake up call for me.
[ This is weirdly way nicer than he expected?? ]
no subject
[1000% Truthfully.]
I'm certain that Han never would have mentioned it to me if he didn't believe it was in your best interests. So I will do my best to give you the tools to achieve success.

[ Hank stares. ]
I mean, not gonna lie, it could get ugly. You seriously wanna deal with that?
[ Hank knows Han didn't mention it (unless Han is in love with Oswald?? uh) but okay, guy. Okay. ]
This place ain't exactly rehab. Unless you've got some weird PhD you ain't told anyone about.
no subject
But likewise, every organization has to have that person who does the things that no one else wants to do. I'm not here to be your enemy, but likewise-- compared to the people around me, I won't be surprised when people consider me as such.
I knew exactly what I was getting into. And I've been doing dirty work for a long time.
no subject
[ I'm sorry. ]
I mean, who the hell would sign up for this?
no subject
[So maybe he’s a harder read than people have taken him for?]
That is, unfortunately, exactly the problem. And so here we are.
no subject
Well, shit. Here we are.
[ What does he even say to that. ]
Thanks for the, uh. Thanks for the offer, I guess. And y'know, for not killing me.
[ Hank pats the folded up number in his pocket. ]
Maybe I'll give you a ring. Hope you don't mind late calls.
[ Because even if you do, Hank will call you. ]
no subject
[He chuckles.]
Not at all. I'm a bit of an insomniac myself.
no subject
[ Easy to see why Todd is the man in charge, though. He could charm the scales off a snake, playing so nice like this. ]
Good to know.
[ He pauses. ]
One last thing. Have you been talking to Connor?
no subject
[At least this he doesn’t seem willing to budge on.]
...we’ve spoken once, yes. Not many people work so hard to track me down. And yet he managed.
no subject
[ Hank shrugs. If Hale wants to run things like that, it's on him. ]
Yeah, he's real insistent like that. Once he latches on, he just won't let go.
[ He's good like that. But that isn't why Hank brought him up. ]
Anyway, I might be shit, but Connor's a good kid. I told him to watch my back, so he will. This won't happen again, long as he's alive.
