It was a black dress with a bodice that fell as a cape over one arm and shoulder, leaving the other bare… it was astonishing to discover that the lines of her shoulder were fragile and beautiful, and that the diamond band on the wrist of her naked arm gave her the most feminine of all aspects: the look of being chained.
The faces of the others looked like aggregates of interchangeable features, every face oozing to blend into the anonymity of resembling all, and all looking as if they were melting. Rearden’s face, with the sharp planes, the pale blue eyes, the ash-blond hair, had the firmness of ice; the uncompromising clarity of its lines made it look, among the others, as if he were moving through a fog, hit by a ray of light.
Like she had to have had some sort of psychopathy or something right? The way every character she disagrees with is describes as looking like a melting candle is worrying.
Also the whole "everyone who's smart and good has blonde hair and blue eyes" is almost too on the fucking nose. She has the subtlety of a beached sperm whale with none of the wit.
I was thinking of using that as the title and I absolutely should have
yup that's her all right

For real, she's like the poster child of politics as sexual pathology
