[Since her hotel hostage adventure had gone south, Lourdes has been laying low - not out of a desire to look repentant (she isn't, and she sees no reason why she should pretend that she is), but because she's been sulking. Her powers are gone, which is both horrible and a relief, and she's on probation, which she considers a joke.

But what she's most upset about is that it hadn't worked. She's not at all surprised that she'd been caught, and she'd always figured that it would happen eventually - but before that, when she'd been in the hotel with everybody, it hadn't done anything to make her happy, which had been her main goal in the first place. It hadn't been like Hearst Castle, or even the Horizon. It had been meaningless, just like everything else in the world.

She waits a while before turning to the network. She hasn't actually been planning to address this in any way - not to explain herself, and certainly not to apologize. But one evening when she's sitting around in her apartment, angrily glaring at the tattoo on her wrist, she fires it up and says something on a whim.]


It was for their own good.

[She has no idea how far news of the takeover has spread, or if most of the people who hear this will even know what she's talking about. That's okay. She doesn't care.]

You took over a hotel for a week. That doesn't really scream 'tight schedule.'
brushoff: (well yeah if you THINK that)

Less hard when you can shove anyone who disagrees in the basement.

[ because let's be real here, Dorian got some quality time in that stupid basement. He's a mouthy brat ]

Yes, but the thing about the imPort apartments? I can leave mine. Whenever I want. I can go outside.

Speaking as a representative of humanity, it's not going to happen. We're just too damn stubborn.

Though, that's interesting. Freaky powers aside, I would have pegged you for human.

Normally those talking about how humanity needs to learn to do this or that either aren't human or have a ridiculous ego.

You have creepy body powers. I can heal. Of course it'd take less effort for you!

[ yeah, he can't help but laugh at that. no response, just a peal of laughter from Dorian's end. ]

You're confusing 'actually like you' with 'forced to like you.'

In that case, enlighten the ignorant.

One of what, the people who like you? I'm afraid that even your charms, whatever they would be, would wear thin on some poor soul stuck in a hotel for a week.
