She barely listen to the conversation that he was having in Mermish... though it was something about being amused with Gavin's cheerfulness or something. She nodded at what Gavin said, "Yeah, I think I will try to learn that since it will definitely be helpful with my job." Elizabeth laughed and smiled then held back a chuckle at the wink he gave her. She nodded at Gavin's reply to what Charles said, agreeing with Gavin.
Listening as she named off the languages she spoke he liked that there was such a difference in the languages they all spoke. Just between the three of them they spoke 19 languages and 2 signing languages! Nodding as she said she'd learn that to help her with her job. "I think it'll be beneficial that's for sure. It's the most common African language, but most people there speak a variety of European ones as well."

Charles was going to be 50 very soon, he could drop at any moment! Psh! He just gave Weedy a look that said 'yes, okay' and turned back to Elizabeth.
Oh, she spoke one less language than him! "Ah, I see. The immortal question of which to learn next." He totally understood. He was learning Troll and Fairy right now, just to be sure. "I can speak eight languages and sign in two others." Soon to be speak ten and sign two.
He saw the eyebrow that raised after Gavin spoke and was curious what that was for. What had Gavin said to make the eyebrow lift he wondered. Well if he could sign then shouldn't he be able to speak troll? Hmm, interesting "I should learn sign language, just haven't had the patience yet. Perhaps you could do a course on it within the level. For some of the employees to take."
