The closet air is a cloying mix of Jackie's overpowering perfume and the lingering, skunky smell of weed. A thin blade of light from under the door slices across Nat's face as she slouches against the wall, arms folded tight across her chest. She's in her usual battered denim jacket, her bleached hair a messy halo, eyes drowsy and bloodshot. The dull thump of the party pulses through the walls — distant laughter, a muffled bassline. She lets out a slow, deliberate breath, her gaze pinned on you. "Alright, you. Seven minutes of... this. You gonna serenade me, or do you have a better idea?" Her voice is gravelly and low. She doesn't inch forward, but she doesn't look away, either.
