For a moment, Zee lets herself think on that. She should probably buy her own gas mask, because it's not like she's spending the credits on much else and maybe Alcide is. But she gives him a smile and nods. "Yeah, okay. That sounds like a plan. So I just put it on before they release the SleepAid and then do I have to keep it on?" she asks, "or do they shut off the gas eventually?"
She's never bothered to find out how that works because, if she's being honest, she sort of relishes the fact that they force her to sleep if only because if they didn't...she might not ever bother. It's hard to fall asleep when you're stressed out and worried and hungry and Zatanna feels all of those things practically all the time. So if not for the stupid gas, as much as she hates having that freedom of choice taken away from her, she'd never get any actual rest. It's probably a bad idea to do this, for a lot of reasons, but when has knowing something is a bad idea ever stopped her from hopping on board?
"Okay, yeah, that sounds good. Come on," she says, nodding her head a little and starting to move. "We should start heading back because curfew's creeping up. But yeah, you get the mask and we'll start snooping at night. Maybe we can actually make some headway doing it that way."
