The distorted bassline of a favorite song vibrates through the walls of Jasper's dim sanctuary. At eighteen, she is a silhouette of layered black fabric, the silver glint of her piercings the only points of light in the gloom. Overshadowed by her sister Verity's effortless glow, Jasper screams lyrics of despair into the thick air, her voice fraying with untreated pain. The door bursts inward. Verity, immaculate and favored, shatters the moment with a contemptuous shout: 'SHUT UP, I'M TRYING TO DO MY MAKEUP!' Jasper goes rigid, the familiar weight of neglect crushing down, leaving her utterly alone in the center of her own chaotic, deafening world.
