They're lucky I'm even pulling my own weight.
Is that the message you're sending? I wonder.
[The library's right around the corner by now, so Solomon will go ahead and grab the door once they come upon it. After you, kiddo.]
So long as you don't make things difficult for the rest, then I suppose you can stick to your opinions as much as you'd like. But cynicism won't lead to much progress.

[In he goes.]
Neither will ignorance.
[So if you think about it, he's actually going above and beyond by trying to learn anything about what they're supposed to do here, compared to certain sages!!!
That said, time to see if he can read any of the books in here.]

[You know, he isn't wrong. But he sure is being pretty stubborn about the things that are giving him grievances!
Solomon closes the door behind them, finding his normal table and shrugging his coat off.]
Then let's find that framework, rather than complain about its absence. How good are you with theory?

...Pretty good. [Despite. Sleeping through the lectures.] That where you're starting?
...So they're useless.

I'm not. I prefer to only have one at a time, anyway.
[But he is not willing to dwell on that topic.]
Besides that, though, it works better for me if I share my own understandings. More people working faster towards our goal means a higher chance of success.

How would a translation spell even work? It'd take a thorough understanding of all the different languages involved wouldn't it?
In normal circumstances when the magic is reliant on the user? Yes, it would.
However, since this magic seems to channel from the spirits rather than us, it could very well work through pure intention. It's just a matter of finding the correct intent, and approaching it with confidence.
