[This is, in fact, an accidental video. Good morning, City. You know the best answer for a hang-over? Keep drinking, and continue to drink Marie Delacroix shall. She usually sticks to white wine, but she drank all that some time yesterday. What she has now is a tall can of beer that she pounds back like a champ before she's flicking a cigarette to life.

She most assuredly has work today, and she while she looks very tired, she moves about the apartment, disappearing in and out of shot without a grumble or a stumble.

Another beer is obliterated before she leans down to grab the device off the table to toss into a purse. She observes the recording light and scowls promptly.]

I will never understands zhis place's obsession with invading one's privacy.

[Now if you will excuse her B|]

[ He finches a little. ]

Of -- Of course.

....Rough weekend?

[prosopopoeia]

Not particularly.

[Not any rougher than usual.]

I'm sure you saw the state of the City for yourself.

[mortemscintilla]

Ye-es. But. [ There is some very delicate throat-clearing going on here, give him a minute pls. ]

Well, I assumed not everyone was [ stupid enough to ] r-reckless enough to overindulge.

[prosopopoeia]

Do not be naive.

[Le sneer.]

No one in zhis town resists zheir urges.

[mortemscintilla]

[ But he is naive!!! ]

[ (Or so he pretends) ]

That can't be true. If it was, the crime rate here would be twice as terrible.

[She squints at him, irritably.]

It is already far beyond unacceptable.
