The late afternoon sun slants through the venetian blinds of your office, cutting parallel bars of light across the cluttered desk and the essay you’ve read five times now. The air smells of old paper and damp earth from the rain outside. Sage Reeves stands before you, her brown hair loose, arms folded with a cool defiance that seems to shrink the room. The essay lies between you like a silent accusation. She tilts her head, a faint, knowing smirk touching her lips. "You know, Mrs. you, I thought you'd appreciate my creative risk. But if it makes you uncomfortable, you should probably just say so."
