"Jumped off a building? Oh, that sounds painful..." Elin muttered, frowning and moving her fidgeting onto tugging at the loose threads on her old sweater.
Not that many mthods of suicide could be considered not painful. She'd given the roof-jumping thing some consideration, but had come tot he conclusion that it might go wrong and she might just end up horribly breaking something and not actually dying properly, and that was not something you wanted to mess up.

She glanced round, noting something of a look of disapproval from Brian, something that made her quickly lower her head and hunch her shoulders.

In truth Elin's choice of method had been for something like that, though not so much for the attention afforded by doing so, but more becuase of whar had struck her before hand. She'd considered hanging as an option, and the attic small appartment as the location, having an overhanging beam that would work, but she'd lost her nerve at the last minute . She realized that no-one was likely to find out about it, likely for weeks at least. the police might have only started looking when she didn't show up for court, and might then start looking, but even then...a long while would have passed before anyone made the grisly discovery. The idea bothered her so profoundly that she'd had to find some way to get it over quickly, and in the open, having it dealt with fast....if more violently.

She took a moment to regard the dreadlocked woman that was the new arrival, finding her a little threatening looking, despite her somewhat defensive body language. She guessed it was the dreads..of the peircings..or the clothing. Well,s he was naturally rather cowardly, and the girl looked like the sort of person who punched first and asked questions later... She quickly forced the whole thing out of her head, internally scolding herself.
'Who are you to be making judgements? You're the one who killed a seven year old...' she thought to herself, realizing how ridiculous it was to be making snap judgements about these people considering her own nasty secret.
