[Ah, someone is attempting to contact the instructor]
Can we meet in person?
[He can work via the tablet but he's so used to talking to people face to face this feels off to him. Which is why that was his immediate question, yup]

If that is what you wish. You may find me in the lecture hall at any hour between 8 o'clock in the morning to 5 o'clock in the evening.
[At least for today, at least!
Not that they seem to be doing much in the hall besides sitting in one of the chairs, tablet in front of them... They don't have an actual office, though, so they have to make do.]

I'll see you there.
[Sholmes sure wrote all this as if he was writing telegrams, hah.
Once it's time to meet, it's plain to see why he insisted in meeting in person: he wouldn't have been able to record his mannerisms in video and make it effective, hah. You can be sure he would have done a million attempts before he's satisfied.
Herlock Sholmes comes in, not even bothering to knock, goes all the way to the assistant, gives a twirl of his arm pointing at Florence and just...]
Good to talk to the extraterrestial spy automaton in person!
[...spouts that]

[This is not what they were expecting at all, honestly, but Sholmes sure is twirling at pointing at them.
They stare at his finger for a moment, before their gaze is drawn to his face.]
I am not a spy, Mr. Sholmes.
[Their head tilts.]
Do you have anything you wish to discuss? Any concerns for me or the Instructor?

Indeed, I do have something to talk to you both about. I have sent a message to the Instructor as well, but that's unrelated.
[Sholmes smiles]
But I also wish to get to know you better. Answering a few questions about yourself should be no issue.
[So it's both because he does have something to bring up, and because he does want to know Florence better, yup]

[What's up with all these people wanting to get to know them better... Is it really that big of a deal?]
I will answer any question you have to the best of my ability, though there is some information I may not be able to divulge or may not have the answer to.
[But they can't stop him from asking him whatever he wants...]

The prerogative is yours -- but you would do well in keeping in mind the truth doesn't stay shrouded in the dark forever. There are people who exist solely to bring it to the light.
[Implying he's one of those people]
Now, how about you tell me if you were a student before becoming the instructor's assistant? Enlighten me.

Could these memories have been removed from your head?
[Saving memories in little discs and taking them away]

It is entirely possible the data was removed, or otherwise made inaccessible.
[It's not something they've thought about, very much.]
Though I am not aware of where that information would be stored, if it was taken out. Nor am I even sure that data is stored in what you could consider my head.
[Maybe it's stored in their chest or something.]

If such a thing happened, could your superior have done that? I don't mean to accuse Miss Lorelei of any wrongdoing, but surely you understand how she would be the only one with the opportunity, as far as I'm aware.
[It could have been someone else, though, it's not like Lorelei is the only other person in existence.
Probably.
Still, he aims to see if he can fish for anything that could hint other people are involved, yup. Veeeeery indirectly trying to fish that]

It is possible, yes. I would obviously have no recollection of her doing such a thing, but I have not spent time with many others besides her for some time. My recent communications have only been with her and the students in this course.
[As far as they can remember!
But they're a completely unreliable narrator. Sorry, Sholmes. Seems like it's just Lorelei that they actually talk to, though.]

[Hm...well, looks like that was a bust. If there's other people, looks like Lorelei is the one who would know. Oh well.
Changing gears to a less business reason to talk to Florence, he decides to be friendly with them]
Then we should solve that issue! As you're aware, there's a pep rally this Friday. You should attend it, not as an assistant but as someone eager to see what our talented classmates will do!

Surely you have talents you could display on a stage, for all of our enjoyment. What did your profile say? Sewing and yarncraft?
[Florence showing off sewing in the pep rally, hell yeah.
Apparently the preemptive 'I won't' didn't deter Sholmes from asking that, hah]

[Sholmes immediately pounces on that]
A most wonderful idea, dear Florence! That's an agreeable compromise.
