"Bursting with energy, that's what remains after solving the elaborate puzzle of this woman; the light waisted designer suit with its buisiness-likeness offsetting the seeming invitation of her lush tanned body and platinum blonde mane; the liveliness of her sparkling green eyes cancelled out by the obvious tenseness that seems to always make her smoke around other people; the animated conversation she makes starkly contrasted by the strong sense of her really needing to take care of something somewhere else.
Still, Flood is no less than gorgeous. Her expression shifting from deceptively sweet to icy to indignant, she has no time to waste on halfhearted displays -- "live fast, die young: today" is what she seems to ooze: intensity, intensity /now/, it may all end tomorrow --, and it is all too easy to imagine that expressive face on the cover of a movie or a fashion magazine. Her fingers are never idle, clutching a Gauloises, or seizing a cup or a glass, almost making it look as though she were ill at ease without something to hold on to."
