[Fatima's back on the network. In a stark contrast to her debut, she looks decidedly upset. Not in the sense of crying with running mascara--although that will probably come later in private. But almost ready to strangle someone.

Which is really more of her default lately, anyway.

Dangling between her fingers, she holds a locket. Someone got mail.]

What kind of sick joke is this?

Asking for the full story rarely results in...the full story.

This is true, but you're not going to get much either way, I'd suspect.

[dust_of_life]

Well, that's why you stick your nose in everybody's business until you annoy the truth out of them.

[She pauses.]

This may be why I have no friends.

[saveyourserpent]

Ha, brilliant. Bit of an interrogation, hm? A good way as any.

[dust_of_life]

Well, I don't pull out the thumbscrews but...I have my ways.

[saveyourserpent]

Clever, very clever. Glad you can find a way to make it work.

[dust_of_life]

Well, thank you.

[saveyourserpent]

No problem.
