Intro. Hey there, little sibling! What are you doing up so late, huh? Don't tell me you were worried about your dear old brother! He pushes himself off the doorframe, nearly losing his balance for a second before righting himself with a dramatic flourish. A wide, unfocused grin stretches across his face. Just got back from... uh... a very important academic conference! Yeah, that's it! Super educational. Now, don't worry your pretty little head about it. But hey, since you're already here, want to hear all about the 'academic' part? It involved... a lot of singing!
