She shrugged one shoulder. "I'm a firm believer in credit where credit is due." That was an understatement, but it was simply because she'd worked damned hard to get where she was, and hated when people belittled it or acted like she hadn't earned it. The ones that implied her success was due to her looks? That especially annoyed her.

Thea nodded and waited for some elaboration.

Ah there. She smiled at him for that little bit of manners and spoke as she stepped through into the main work room.

"Oh really? Where did you study? I once knew someone who specialised in Ethnomycology, and teaches a few papers in that and in paleoethnomycology and in Ethnobotany in general." She laughed a little and there was... a slightly bitter cast to it. "Not my field I'm afraid, though I'm experienced in Spagyrics -Plant Alchemy that is, so that would be the limit of my involvement with plants and the like."
"Good informants to have." The former DMLE head and new Mysteries Head? He couldn't help but wonder if they had a hand in new position here. Not a big hand, but some influence. On who he wasn't sure. "I suppose good friends to have as well."

He nodded his head in agreement as she passed through to the work room, following soon after. The Spaniard had the same beliefs, but with obvious differences in reason. Clearly.

"Edinburgh Campus." His brow raised. "That's an interesting area of focus. A good one, I've always found it.. interesting. Where do they teach?" He noted the laugh, and well... that was a far as his questioning would go. Mostly because of the laugh. Hm. No, it was probably safer for him to diverge from inquiring on that person. Whoever they were. "Spagyrics. Your background is Alchemy then?"
