[As the atmosphere seems to have shifted, Jade slowly starts to adjust to the quiet shadows and her surroundings. She's here, breathing in a dimly lit room. Not drowning in the Red Sea, choking on saltwater as the abyss closes in, burning her lungs...
[With a shudder, she manages to untangle her long, slender legs from the sheets, swinging them over the edge of the bed. They both seem adult enough not to care when she casually pulls on the pants she had kicked off just before sleep, right there in front of Alice.]
I can tell. You looked like you were ready to throw hands just then.
[Considering her subtle offer, her attention falls down to the pouch laying at her bedstand.]
Some company doesn't sound too bad. Don't think I'll be getting any more sleep tonight, anyways.
[Pausing, she grabs the pouch and pulls out a decorated pipe she had bought at the Empório marketplace, some time after receiving a modest stash from Tezcatlipoca. She was pleasantly surprised to see something not too unlike her own world.]
D'you mind if I smoke? It helps calm me down. [And if the people in this building had issues with her indoor smoking habits, they didn't say anything. Nothing that can't be fixed by propping the window.]
