[There is a lot of red as the camera flips on. Underneath streaks of red-- not dark enough to be blood if you look at it with any semblance of 'figuring it out'--, Asellus looks tired and frustrated. This might be the closest anyone's going to see her come to tears; this is touching nerves she's been hoping will never have been touched again. Above one eye is a nasty-looking lump and a cut, purplish-- though whether that's her blood or bruising is not clear. She's also a little pale; she tried her hardest to avoid the worst via Charm, but when, after being hit with all the Charm she's got, someone still had the nerve to throw things-- a rock, a few rotting tomatoes...

Well, it's got her very shaken. Her head hurts, she's running dangerously low on energy, she feels disgusting, and she's got her street-facing windows covered. It's dark in the room, but it's safer than letting herself be seen outside.]

...Knew I should've worn a hat today.
