[greetings, Siren's Port. Have a surly albino in a laboratory, fiddling with something at his work desk. He doesn't bother to look up as he speaks.]
...One would think a building meant to house scientific minds would be safe from the nonsense of this holiday, but no. It's inescapable. If I have to listen to one more nasal attempt at humor comparing the symbolic heart with actual hearts, I can't claim responsibility for what I'll do.
[a scowl as Langstrom notices something off-screen. He rips a paper heart decoration from the wall and crumples it into a ball.] Ridiculous. [Using a pair of tongs, he holds it over the flame of a Bunsen burner. Once lit, the ball of construction paper and lace is dropped into a nearby beaker, where he apathetically watches it curl into blackened refuse.]
Hmph. As though humanity truly needs another excuse to engage in gluttony and pointless fornication. The whole mess is a tired propagation of consumerism and social norms hidden beneath saccharine sentimentality.
[finally, he gives the camera a tired glance.] Please tell me I'm not the only one in this city who doesn't buy this snake oil celebration.
