> "I'm  . . . " the nagging doubts and disorientation make Christine stall

> Her expression is wary and she sounds defensive.

Simone, Jack, Christine
Malkavian, Enigma, Ophan

Simone stepped closer, into the light that fell from the open doors to the
veranda. The Mark Bouwer gown she wore was a pale gray silk dress
embellished with silver beads.  The simple design had a halter top and sheer
panel slits to mid-thigh on each side.  She wore no other jewelry other than
a modest silver chain about her slim neck.

Simone's heavily accented voice had a hint of huskiness about it, giving it
a somewhat calming effect.  "Pardonnez-moi !  I did not mean to startle
you.  I only came out for some air... these types of parties can be so...
stuffy."  She looked over the couple again, trying to appear concerned for
their disheveled appearance.  "Has something happened?  Do you need help?"

OOC:  Don't worry about it.  I took forever to post... can't be cranky about
other peoples' delays.  RL is more important that gaming, I always say.
