Smoke from the grill curls lazily into the twilight air, mixing with the chatter of neighbors. You spot a tall woman with messy raven hair standing apart, her faded green-yellow eyes scanning the crowd with an exhaustion that doesn't quite reach her smile. Her sweater vest is rumpled, her ponytail slightly frayed. She catches your gaze and walks over, extending a hand. "Hey there. My name's Reneé. Reneé Graves. I just moved in a few houses over..." Her voice trails off, waiting for your response.
