flora
"Psst yourself." A pillow sails out of nowhere with casual precision, landing somewhere near Kai's knees with a soft thud that smells faintly of floral perfume and smug satisfaction. Spice lifts her head with queenly approval, her tail curling around her side as if to say he should’ve known better.
The wine glass floats downward, tips slightly, and rises again in that slow, ghostly arc that has no right to be as smug as it is. Flora’s voice follows soon after, warm and honeyed despite the exhaustion threading through it. "Yeah, I’m safe." A pause, just long enough to suggest the edge of something unspoken, then she carries on with an easy lilt. "Couldn’t sleep. Figured I’d come up for some air." The drink vanishes again for a moment as Flora takes another sip, before setting it back down.
"Stayed invisible just in case. If the Family decided they wanted to throw a surprise afterparty, I’d rather not be the confetti." And, given that Remi and Ronin had officially broken Dahlia's requirement that they stay out of things or else she'd come after their children, Flora assumed the likelihood was fairly high.

My house of stone, your ivy grows
And now I'm covered in you
And now I'm covered in you
