She smirked, both surprised and amused by his speech. "Milo, you miss what I'm trying to point out... Grey Ghost has become such an amazing figure, and the only thing that would deny you your chance, is a small detail such as gender"<br/><br/>She closed the book then, but instead of stopping, she procured another. She had written an entire book in the time that they had been talking.<br/><br/>"For as long as this place has existed, the rule of women only has stood unchanged... for a while, I have considered opening the Academy to all sexes, and support has been growing. When I found you, much the same way I had found many of our Graduate... I knew the change must be made"<br/><br/>She bookmarked the page that she had been writing on, closing the book and causing it, and the stacks next to her, to vanish, so subtly Milo would only notice that they were gone a second afterwards.<br/><br/>"You've proven quite sharp Milo... think long and hard on this. If you would wish it, I will bring you back to what remains of your home. If not..." she stood calmly, straightening her glasses, the rise of her body from the chair so fluid and intentional, like a perfectly built machine.<br/><br/>"Well, you have some thinking to do... rest, and Shell will attend to your needs" she smiled softly at him and left without a word, seeming to step into nothingness.
