Arbiter:
Lucinda Fare has over the course of the campaign proven herself often enough to be considered Bodie's right hand.
Lucinda had, long ago, earned Bodie's respect: and Bodie never needed to question Lucinda regarding her 'work hours' ... and Lucinda had autonomy when it came to her own time off.
Bodie smiled when Lucinda talked about there 'recording'. Her music as important to her, and Bodie was always happy for Lucinda to focus on that, or any other form of self-care: knowing that Lucinda was always just as focused on her job as she was on her private life.
"
I'll call. Lets say 10.30?"
The two were well known and taken care of at their usual haunt: 'The Thoughtful Pig', a small family run business who appreciated their regular business, and always made a private table available when requested.
In both cases, Lucinda and 'The Thoughtful Pig', Bodie knew loyalty went both ways.

Can you please drop me on Steiner Court, and I'll see you at The Pig for dinner?

She made her way back to the office and got some paperwork done, before getting to her meeting with Vanessa.
Bodie didn't comment on any of it, but simply watched the footage that Vanessa had chosen for the broadcast. Bodie didn't even want to see the rest of the article: just which 'publicly provided footage' would air.
The reason being, as Bodie watched the piece, she willed upon that visual piece 'A Song Buried Deep' within its very essence. A lot of people were going to see this piece: even, and especially, if it went controversial and viral.
Bodie buried deep in this image, to be 'consumed' by any who saw this footage (whether it be on the News Feed, social media or whatever), a deep admiration for Bodie Queen.
edit: argh, damnit. I screwed up my plans when I got creative ... and now don't have the Effort for last part of my plan.
