"If you think of anything later, I'll have a record in my notebook of how long you spent helping me and you can call in a favor," Maurabel says. "A couple things before I get the amulet - I try not to, but I'm prone to using implicit control when I'm distracted, especially if you're physically very nearby. If I start, you can remind me and I'll stop. Outside of unlikely emergencies and leaving the university minimum orders in place, my goal is not to control you at all and just communicate verbally - even if you do things that are annoying or socially unacceptable - but if you do do those things I will be less likely to ask you for help again in the future. If you want to know whether something is annoying or socially unacceptable without trying it, you can ask me as long as we aren't concentrating on a working right at that moment. Does that all make sense?"
