[ It's early in the morning when Ariadne makes her network post and she's obviously still tired, nursing a cup of coffee. The reason she's awake might be obvious -- in the background, even though there are no speakers anywhere nearby, a song is playing. ]

You know, I've never heard this song before in my life.

[ There's a pause so she can yawn into her cup of coffee. ]

But I think I like it. I'd like it even more if it didn't wake me up, though.

[ On the bright side, she can tell just by the way he's speaking that this is definitely not Fischer or Raymond. Still, 'foxy' takes her a bit off-guard, and she blinks at him for a moment. ]

Yeah, it's probably a curse.

[ As if to demonstrate... ]

[freedrinkplease]

The curse things.

[ Pig wrinkles his nose. ]

Always happen to you, foxy?

[boutant]

Not always, but a lot. This one could be a lot worse, really.

[freedrinkplease]

..It's a pretty bad song, though.

[boutant]

Well-- [ And then it changes. ]

... There's a different one.

[freedrinkplease]

You got no taste! [ coming from Pig, of all people. ]

[boutant]

I'm not picking it.

[freedrinkplease]

Who is, then, eh?

[boutant]

The City, probably.
