Re: rooftop; wandering (various warnings likely.)
"You want to leave me?" As if her determination to head back downstairs needed clarification. She'd better think long and hard about that, take a good look at the depraved shine in his iceberg eyes. "Why would you do that?" The words arrived mangled, chewed up and stagnant. They were pried loose from his teeth one at a time, like it took so much effort to speak at all. His composure was unraveling. A spool containing fury and more unforgiving things, coming undone at their shuffling feet as he rattled her arm like she was some disobeying rag doll.
