Alright, that's it. Lemm irritably snatches up a pen and scoots their paper closer to himself.
His usual quick scholar's scratch doesn't make its appearance - his writing now is slow and unfamiliar, and more than once he second-guesses himself. The shape doesn't look like it's anything until it just... keeps going. The same strokes are written over in smaller symbology and yet more insinuation of form is scratched into existing dried ink with the edge of the pen.
When Lemm is done he slides the paper back to them with a very smug flourish.
More or less it reads... nearly every title they've put, at the same time! But not very well. It is very badly translated and condensed into one very complicated-looking symbol with a lot of very glaring mistakes in it. Arcane information works none-dimensionally and was never meant for paper, and Lemm's not remotely close to fluent to begin with.

All this for a joke.
