Employment. There's something Mycroft needs to devote more thought toward (and oddly, he hadn't been thinking of it at all when asking after Princess Nuala). He's been considering investigating the university, but his experiences with academia in the past have been largely negative and the thought of returning to that environment has not enthused him. After reading about Hellsing both in the library and in the daily paper, he's gleaned that the guild has some ties to politics (mainly through the princess), but passed over giving it due consideration as a workplace after categorizing it primarily as a kind of militia or substitute police force with a specialization in subduing supernatural problems. Martel's position there only seemed to cement that fact.

If other members of the CeidaryBlue cohort are seeking jobs in politics there, however, it may be worth investigating. Mycroft hadn't been lying when he'd said the princess seemed interesting. Reading about the attempt on her life had certainly given Mycroft something to think about.

"If one were interested in finding out more about what types of positions were available there," he says to Martel, "who might one ask after?"
