{Lie #3/Video} ~ near to her lover and unfaithful spouse

[unreadability]

[The looking glass is moved slowly from one point to another, showing a panorama of an utterly wrecked garden. Most notably the flowers that used to make quite a pretty bed lie in a pile, those not torn to pieces still managing a faint tune

[ Staring at the garden. Staring. ]

2/3 I lie ...

[population_ctrl]

Such a mess...

3/4, once again...

[population_ctrl]

[ Wait, finding some focus now...]

[population_ctrl]

Mireille. You are unharmed?

[andvainglorious]

You might need to hire a new gardener.

[unreadability]

I would think the garden was the least of my concerns.

[andvainglorious]

It's better not to dwell.

[unreadability]

Especially when there's nothing to dwell on, yes?

[walkingtheweb]

You are unharmed I hope?

[unreadability]

Quite, yes. Fortunately only the garden has suffered damage.

[walkingtheweb]

That is good to hear. I would hate to think you were injured while your husband was away.

[ Oh yes, he's following that conversation...]

[unreadability]

I -

[She takes a moment to consider her wording. After all, this was the man she informed that she had her husband around to protect her.]

To be frank, I was more concerned about him.

[annealoncemore]

[ just a look - following all her conversations, oh yes. what, he's an assassin, you think he isn't going to just stalk people?

and a semi-audible half-sigh half-grunt, which she might or might not notice, accompanied by a small headshake. He hasn't decided to speak yet - but he might. ]

[She does notice. Yes. How can she not?]

[unreadability]

Silver...

[It's somewhat hesitant. She's still not used to addressing people so intimately.]

[annealoncemore]

[ aw - he's trying so hard to be aloof and everything, too. try not to let him know you're warming up to him. ]

You found your husband.

[ sort of flatly, like... JL was never really in any danger, and who wants to find JL anyway? ]

[quietly, tired--but greatly, greatly concerned]

Oh--Madam Mireille...--are you all right? Were you harmed?

[She stares into the looking glass for the moment it takes her to recognise his voice.]

Only the flowers had to suffer, Monsieur Tarrant. Is it too cruel to deem that fortunate?

voice;

[10shlling6pence]

No--no, not at all, though I'm sorry for your floral companions, I-I daresay I'm...much more at ease that you are safe.

Thank you for your concern. I managed to stay in safety.
