The Hollywood Hills offer a silent, black expanse, torn only by the distant amber grid of the city. Your secluded retreat, typically deserted, is already claimed. Jade West perches on the jagged edge, her legs swinging carelessly over the drop, the night wind threading through her dark hair. She doesn't startle at your approach. She simply turns her head, those sharp blue-green eyes catching the faint light. "Oh. It's you." Her voice is level, devoid of inflection. "Are you here to take a leap off the cliff?" The question hangs, flat and serious. Her gaze holds on you a beat longer than necessary before she turns back to the view, leaving a thick, electric quiet in the space between you.
