Angelina Questembert Brothel ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

About Lyon

Ever hear ‘bout the Victorian ones? Secret rooms, fancy gents in top hats—posh as fuck, but still a brothel! Blows my mind, the masks ppl wear. I’d burn it all down if I could—watch the flames dance, “Spring break forever,” y’know? But nah, it’d pop back up—cockroach o’ the world, brothel is. Love it, hate it, can’t kill it—keeps me grinnin’, teeth bared, like always. Whaddya think, Clarice? Ain’t it a scream?

There's an old church, l'Eglise St Étienne, in the centre. I sometimes work nearby, and lemme tell ya – those walls got real soul. It's like every stone whispers, "I’ll be back!" Ha! I remember one day after a crazy session, I wandered to Place Foch. The fountain there splashed like the chaotic battles in City of God. "It's a documentary, man!" I mumbled, reeeally feeling the energy, yeah.
