Tim overhears Angeline and Butler talking animatedly in the other room about something in Russian and he proceeds to discretely text Artemis to go "my son... I am summoning you to see if they are talking trash about us both" to which Artemis simply sends a "👍" before promptly appearing in the study to join Tim (despite Artemis having fully been in the other wing of the house last time Tim checked?)

#My HC about who can speak Russian in the manor is that Angeline Artemis and Butler are all fluent #Tim knows some words and phrases from business #and Juliet and the twins never learned but wouldn't be opposed to learning it one day #Angeline would also probably be familiar with some dialects due to having family in Russian though accent and dialect differences do fall #more on class as opposed to the Northern/Central/Southern 'on paper' distinct dialects #That is to say three separate aristocratic families from the North/South/Center of Russia would have been able to understand each other #usually whereas someone from the merchant class in the south might have an accent that the wealthy southerners wouldn't understand #IMO she would be able to mimic Russian accents and dialects fairly well because in her 20s she actively wanted to avoid signalling specific #specifics about her area of origin in the country or her background
