@Aisling Dracula laughed. "I'm calm. I'm completely calm. I'm gonna drink something now and then I'll destroy everything that's in my way!"

"I'm not that much interested in robots," Toma answered. "I like theoretical physics better."
@Aisling (It's okay)

"It's okay. It's me who should apologize," Dracula said and smiled a bit. "I'm a master at losing my temper."

"I was just joking about the particle accelerator," Toma explained. "You can't build them with such kits. They're much too big for that."
"If you don't want any of these kits - how about we go to the town and get you a book instead?" Dracula asked.
@Aisling "Then, tell them not to disturb you while you learn," Dracula suggested.

Toma looked at the kits. "Thanks, but there's none. Despite this magnets kit, there's none that is physics-related, and the others aren't that interesting to me." He chuckled a bit. "I'd need a DIY particle accelerator."
@Aisling Dracula just shook his head by the time he arrived at the gift shop. "You know nothing about unschooling, do you? Children will teach themselves. It's not called unschooling for no reason. There is absolutely nothing that can be compared to schooling. I'm the head of a state. I need to be undisturbed when I do my job, and if there was schooling in unschooling, I wouldn't be able to do it. - If you do unschooling, that means that the worst part you might have to do is to answer a question when your children can't find the answer on their own. Sometimes, they might need a little help on finding a way to achieve their goals. Then, you suggest things they can do, like go to the museum, search the internet, read a book on it, watch a video on it,... that's really everything you need to do."
@Aisling "That goes against unschooling. Learning should be free of schedules," Dracula spoke to Mystique.
"How about we go to the gift shop now? Your mommy is there as well," the Count said to Fiona.
@Aisling "He's allowed to go anywhere. He loves going to the zoo, the castle's library and the museum, but his favourite place definitely is the observatory with its planetarium. There, they've got lectures for every level of astronomy knowledge: They've got lectures for beginners as well as for professionals. Toma loves going to the lectures for professionals," Dracula said.

Ioan put a hand on Fiona's shoulder. "That's called compassion... when you don't like it when others suffer. And compassion is one of the best feelings that exist, although it can make you feel sad or upset... when you're compassionate, you help others."
@Aisling "Ah, that's what you mean. Sorry. I thought you'd choose kits for the children. But why don't we go there altogether?" Dracula suggested. "Ioan can teleport the stuff home, so that we can go and see more animals."

"What's the matter?" Ioan carefully asked her.
@Aisling "Shouldn't the children be with you when you do that?" Dracula asked via telepathy. "In the concept of unschooling, it's them who choose. They choose what they learn, but also which books or science kits they want."
@Aisling So am I. It's just that I know that these things can and will be over, and I accept it.
@Aisling Dracula smiled at her. "Yes, I can do that. I can take your mommy there as well if she wants to go with us."
