Irene likes her laugh, but it's clearly and distinctly other than human. Of course, that just makes it- and Ilde in general- more interesting.

"I was the one with the riding crop," she says, her tone wry. "Shame I didn't see you, or I'd have come over. It was a busy night- I was quite preoccupied." She always gets rather engaged in her sessions and in convincing men (and on occasion, women, though most of her clients are male) to come to a private room with her; she gets paid to do what she loves, after all, and in her opinion it's not a job you can do well if you don't give your clients your full attention.
