[ Today, the view of Re-l is a little different. For one, she isn't in the dark washed rooms of either her apartment or her office, instead bathing in a pale white robe, in a room set to match. Notably missing is the blue eye shadow or any semblance of her usual hairstyle - and unless people now counted IV lines as accessories, it's pretty safe to assume that she's currently situated in the clinic.

And maybe rightfully so - just check out those dark circles - ]

As a general PSA - let me state from a very early point in this video that exhaustion is not, exactly, a theme park ride. Falling out in one's kitchen with a full cup of coffee means a scalded leg and a very rude awakening for your roommates.

I will not be out and about or doing any work for the next few days. Doctor's and - [ and grumbled ] - Vincent's orders.

I don't know how long I will be in the clinic, (presumably long enough to got a bag or two of IV fluids and nutrients in) but I will attempt to at least redirect any work or.. other things to the proper channels while I can. Apparently it isn't too far to be sedated in order to make sure that I stay where I am or that I, at least, cannot see straight enough to do any real work.

[ She pauses to sigh and take a drink of what looks like one of those smoothie drinks she's often caught with, sighing. ] Daedalus would have an absolute fit if he saw me right now.

Maybe my grandfather's mandatory vacations weren't such a bad thing - does anyone know how to get coffee out of a rug?

Apparently this morning was quite the episode, in my apartment. I'm being advised that I should do nothing but sitting and resting for the next week, if possible, but I'd like to shorten it to four days, if I can. The work and cases that I have currently can either be turned over or put on hold until then - tell me which you'd prefer that I do.

I wouldn't be surprised if my communicator was commandeered, so... try not to be surprised if Vincent answers, instead of me.

I think, being outside of Romdeau, my chances for that have dropped significantly. I'll be sure to have it addressed if I notice my mind slipping. Or Vincent will.

Hopefully.

It's a rare privilege to actually notice your mind slipping when you're going mad.

I aim to excel in all things.

Then you would not see insanity as an inherent failure?

Not necessarily. Madness, at times, has logic behind it that can be very sound.

It is certainly the exception rather than the rule. I will allow that sometimes there is a line of reason running through what is otherwise chaos.
