You’d think they’d spend a bit more on their surveillance feeds; all that money and the best they can do is black and white, no sound. Thing is, they rely so heavily on the chip-tracking system that they don’t care too much for the visual detail, using it only to confirm some physicality should the need arise.
Peye watches the live feed from Giles’ house; an activity she has performed regularly since ’38 when relations between brother and sister finally became untenable. She is therefore familiar with the avatar that Krystal so similarly presents both in private and in public.
Of course, this presumes that fraternising with the Kulturati constitutes ‘public’; Peye is reasonably certain that Krystal’s had no contact with the street for years; Giles however, is another story.
Her brother and his lovely wife spend a lot of time catching glimpses of themselves in reflective surfaces, as if to reassure themselves of their cool existence bathed in a steady warm stream of positive feedback.
Vampires, if ever there were such a thing.
