Tonight: A Visual Novel
mellystella for Vanessa (Roselia Clarke)
Vanessa (Roselia Clarke) (she/her, 24)
She’s been coming to the nightclub since she was 14. No one knows her background, family, home life, or even her last name, only that she appears there at 7 o’clock without the money required for entry yet has paid in full by the end of night. Whether it be by bar brawl, a stealthily won game of pool, or classic flirtation, the bouncers have long since learned not to question her when she says they’ll get the money. Whenever anyone tries to talk to her, she either blows them off or decides to use them to earn the money she needs for the night. So why has she taken such an interest in you, and why has she done so without finagling your money away?
(Roselia Clarke is in parentheses because this is her real name.)
We need a cold and harsh voice for Vanessa. She's very critical and icy, and we need a voice to convey this personality. Please record 3 takes per line.
[Jamie has asked to speak to Vanessa regarding Annabelle's murder, and Vanessa reads Jamie and knows exactly what they want.] "Before you start, either buy me a drink or go talk to someone else because I'm too sober to be interrogated"
"Look, I know you want info, but you're gonna have to pay. Be it your body or your money, I'm gonna require some compensation for every tiny bit of information I give you."
"GET OFF OF ME! Holy shit, do men not have any fucking manners?"
