A fair point. It's a lucky thing your employer isn't a direct competitor.

Any of the good work you do tonight would be wasted by even just an hour of sleep.

[ If he sleeps at all, but then again, an all-nighter would also make him look like death. ]

TBH, Arcane and Lavender Jack have similar themes, but with more masked vigilantes and less magic...

First thing tomorrow, then.

And do get more than an hour. I have makeup for the bags under your eyes, but they're always darker when you're underslept.

But the dark circles are a crucial piece of my signature glower.

[astraythought]

Yes, but they make you look like an exhausted obsessive, rather than a competent scientist.

Investors, Viktor. You're not lecturing in front of your peers.

Jayce deals with the investors, I simply wish not to detract from his spell over them. I'd also like to avoid the stares and whispers about the sick boy from the undercity when they think I can't hear, but I don't think coiffed hair will prevent that.

[astraythought]

If they knew you for your competence, you could escape some of those whispers, but it would mean sharing Jayce's spotlight.

It's a balancing act, one supposes, and I'm not in a position to guess which is worse.
