Making a face at her as she spoke, wondering what it would sound like spoken through a owl's beak and vocal cords. More screechy, he was sure. Offering a smile toward the woman however, he title his head down slightly "Well I would not say that, exactly. But I will let you have this one." Lifting his right hand then, he makes a pinching motion "Just this once, I suppose." Watching the tiny tray slivers of hair on her head separate from the others for a moment, he pictured it more like feathers, soon enough.
His attention was soon brought back toward her face as Sara spoke again, however "Hm?" Alexei questioned, momentarily. Though let her speak. Perhaps that was true, he hadn't really gotten out much, focusing on his work. He tended to forget that he wasn't alone. At times, but not necessarily all the time. He did still need others, so he could do his experiments. A frown faintly pressed onto his lips as Sara went on however, he could only offer a somewhat saddened look at this description on her perspective of him "Well, the business I do is not really favorable."
"It is actually very tragic, others have come and gone, in your position. They simply cannot handle my life's work, some last longer than others, though. But I have been working alone for some time, I suppose I just simply forgot what it's like, being around others. Even working with them." Pausing, he considers something for a moment, before asking "And what about you? Do you want to help?"
