Jack is at work, which is good, because he needs to work, but it's weird, because he's not here. Jillie has seen a huge change in him since coming here, and she doesn't know if it's only because of one thing or another, but it's visible, palpable, and she likes it.

She's been hiding in his room since he left, feeling a bit like an intruder. This isn't what Dr. Kapoor had in mind. She's lucid today, almost painfully so, and the forefront of her worry comprises doctors, therapists, and medication. These are things she needs, things that she requires to remain functional, and that she doesn't have them is triggering some anxious behavior.

She's pacing, feet scuffing softly against the floor. She's pulling and tugging on her hair. Her mind is starting to fill with noise, a steady swell, like someone is turning the volume up.

She fumbles into her pajama pants, pulling out her cigarettes. She only has two left. She lights up, hands shaking, and pulls a deep, long drag.

Jack is probably going to kill her for smoking in his room, but she doesn't dare go out into the apartment yet. There's someone out there, but what if they're not as understanding as Jack, as Poison?

Over the years, the years of keeping herself safe, Dee's gotten pretty good at reading body language. She stops, looking at Jillie for a moment.

"What is it?"

"We could wait until Jack's here." She knows that Jillie can stand being touched by Jack; she's seen it happen. And then she realises how that sounds. "That sounded way less incesty and gross in my head."

"C'mon then. Let's do it in my room in case the boys come home." Dee gets up off the sofa, abandoning her laptop and, after thinking about it for a moment, she offers Jillie both of her hands.

"It'll be easier to measure if you do," says Girl, leaning back on her hands and hauling Jillie up to her feet. She's always liked the way Jack does it, like it really means it. "I can...not look? If it bothers you?"

"Yeah well. I've seen scars and I've got plenty of my own so." She sniffs, drawing Jillie into the bedroom with her. "Maybe they've just got nothing better to do."

"Yeah, man, that's fine," says Girl, retrieving her tape measure from a drawer. "You really do have an awesome rack."

Girl measures Jillie's bust in quick, economical movements, jotting things down in her phone. When she's done, she looks it up. "Okay. So, we can buy you bras that fit now," she says, flashing a grin.

"Let's get you two, so you've got one for laundry?" says Girl, padding back out to the sitting room and dropping back down on the couch. "What's your favourite colour?"

"Some people don't," says Girl, shrugging a lot. "When I was a kid, red was my favourite, but I think that's only because I associated it with Poison, even after I forgot his face?"

"Yeah, probably not," says Girl, flashing Jillie a grin. "He wouldn't look right to me with any colour other than red these days. It's all I've ever known him with." She fluffs her own hair.

"I think that would look really cute on you," says Girl, lifting her hand to brush her fingers against Jillie's hair but pulling herself up at the last minute. "If you let me know when, I'll dye it for you."
