I guess, off the top of my head, you use it for emails, storing overflow kit, changing your face, catching up on the news and advancing the time of day when you go to bed? So whether Viktor remains an upgrade menu or turns into something else, and regardless of whether a late stage battle erupts inside my beautiful Fifth Element-style apartment, I still love these moments as needless bits of lavish design generosity.
