This, she realized, was a deeply inappropriate conversation, and at least half of it was her fault. It had just been... nice... for someone who had seen who she really was to walk through the door. She'd been dreading it, but as long as she didn't let it interfere with her work, he had no power over her. Except, of course, to say that she was the kind of girl who drank in bars and punched men in the face after they had insulted her. That would sure go against her carefully crafted image.
The image that helped support herself and Kurt.
...hell.
Marie took a breath, and found swallowing her retort no less bitter, but easier than she thought it would be. Still, there was no way she could leave that hanging as it was without seeming rude, so, "That's just as well."
