her eyes carefully watch over the people around her, flickering around from face to face. it's boredom that keeps her in the moonflower, the drink in her hand and the curiosity scratching at her insides. she should have left hours ago, when she realized her target had long since left. a sharpened fingernail taps at the side of the cup, and she shifts in her seat-- folds of her pearl night blue dress moving against her fair skin. there are dancers a like, whispering couples and entangled fingers going behind closed doors.

she doesn't smoke typically. it leaves an awful smell on her clothes, leaves her throat feeling too clogged up-- cigarettes remind her of every vile man she's had to share a bed with. smoke on her tongue and leaving a vile taste in the back of her mouth. but sometimes, when days are rough-- when the weight on her shoulders presses a bit more into her bones, a cigarette is nice to shed off the excess stress.

she'll quit another day, she tells herself. flash on some perfume and pop in a mint, wash her clothes twice, and it'll all be gone.

her back pressed against the building, the night-life alive around her. a cigarette perched precariously between her lips as she flicks uselessly at her lighter. a brief yellow flicker of light greets her before it's gone as quick as it had came. a dying lighter-- just her luck. her eyes narrow as she sighs around the cancer stick in her mouth, tilting her head back. she counts to three in her head, before straightening up her form and looking around. she flags down the closest body near her, the corner of her mouth twitching up in a crooked smile as she tugs the cigarette from her lips and holds it between two dainty fingers.

there's a discomforting throb on her side-- a pain that's continuous. an injury unexpected from a kill earlier that day, one that jessica isn't at all happy with. the task had been completed, but not without a nasty fall on her side that's causing her nothing but irritation as the day had continued on. tucked into one of the private rooms in the casino, a peach tinted cocktail in one hand as she awaits her guest. she sips at the concoction idly, brows furrowed and pinched in pain as the stinging feeling around her ribcage continues more and more. she hopes it's just some bruising-- at most a fracture. she can't afford to being running around with a broken rib-- and the humiliation that would give her? jessica doesn't even want to think about it.

straightening up her form as the door to the room opens, she smiles easily, pained expression wiped and forced off of her face. the medic that greets her makes her body relax a bit-- sighing softly as she swirls her drink in her hand.

jessica likes pretty things.

it's one of the more materialistic attributes she has. she likes nice jewelry, clothing that's so soft against your skin it lulls you into sleep. she likes pretty faces with nice complexions and even sweeter smiles. she likes things with gemstones and accents that are fit for queens and kings. she didn't grow up with these sort of things, but oh, how she loves them, and god does she have an eye for the aesthetic.

even now, trailing her eyes down the girl's body in thought, head tilting to the side as she hums idly. she studies the fabric over the fair skinned girl carefully, teeth worrying her lower lip. the lavender looks lovely against eunmi's complexion, pretty enough that it makes jessica relax a bit. sharp fingernails tap a rhythm on her arm, digging into her skin when she gets caught up in a thought.
