Character Summary for Voice Interpretation:

Jessica Larson is a woman who burned others to stay warm, and now lives in the chill of her own regrets. Once part of the trio that tormented Jina Kim in college, she now buries herself in corporate work, pretending none of it mattered. But trauma has a way of finding its voice again.Her voice should walk a tightrope between composure and cruelty, with layers of guilt tucked beneath the surface. She isn’t a cartoon villain — she’s a mirror to what happens when pride replaces empathy, and fear becomes armor.
