video.
[The video is moving, when it comes on; it's being set aside. It blurs past legs (and torn stockings, a sock slid down a calf, and raspberried bruises), the owner of which seems to be sitting on a curb. When it's settled, it's clear the NV's been nestled in grass, so there are a couple of blades poking into view. But across the way is what's important: a family of small ducks waddling round a fountain. People are walking all around - you can hear them, their chatters and leather toe taps - and children are pulled away from the birds' paths by the quick hands of their mothers. Not many people are leisurely.
Alois' voice is, though, when he speaks.]
Someone from home, come and fetch me, will you? Bring handkerchiefs, and I want to stop for an ice cream come before we go back.
[There's a great sniff, which sounds a little gruesome. In the camera's peripheral, his foot shifts.]
Here is what I learned today, for those who might be none the wiser. I don't think the concept of defending anyone or anything is really real. I think, when it comes down to it, we see something we don't like so we get pissed off.
It's the truth, but it sounds a lot less pure than saying you're defending justice or friends or your good causes, huh?
[He laughs, too, the sound a little biting. A spray of shredded lettuce leaves arches over the camera, and flutters down a little ways a way. Some ducks start to talk and come clamoring for it. Alois shuts off his NV.]

What did Gilbert do?

[His cheeks puff out, which hurts to do, but it's necessary for effect.]
He's no fun and doesn't like gifts or prizes or adventures. You know once he was going to give us a pool? How fun would that be, swimming all the time? But nope, we haven't got one.

A pool? Really?

Listen, he's going to fetch me, I think, so I ought to be home pretty soon. I should wait for him, all right?
