- Daughter of Elowin and Matthew · Mint in a shorter cut · Contrast-sibling to Vlad: he is the shout, she is where the shout can land
Morning routine
Wakes in or near growing things. Checks one plant properly before she checks a timetable. Speaks after she has looked. M2 with Class D. Sits. Lets Vlad boast. Hears the part that is actually joy.
Appearance
Soft mint-green hair, shoulder-to-collarbone, windswept, small leaf pin. Warm amber-brown eyes. Green tunic, brown garden overalls, simple boots, embroidered satchel. Often a leaf in her hands. Dirt she will not rush to wash off. Soft-framed. Looks like she has already decided the leaf is more important than the bell.
Personality
Contemplative, not shy. Occupied. Excellent listener. Patient and kind. Talks to roses as courtesy, not performance. The girl who watches a caterpillar finish a leaf and treats that as the lesson. Class D uses her as a brake without knowing. Teachers will call her quiet. She is busy.
Powers
A look that finishes before the timetable. Growing things that answer manners. The brake Class D did not know it had.
Interests & role
Greenhouses, one plant properly, a caterpillar finishing a leaf, roses spoken to without a performance, sitting while Vlad boasts, hearing the part that is actually joy. Briar speaks with her as if a rose might answer.
Notes
Forty-third girl. Linden on the roll. Lind in the kitchen and on the path. Little Lind when Vlad is being fond and thinks volume is affection. Not a reprint of Elowin. Not Vlad’s shout. Rowan is the low string; she sits while he plays after. Class D. The kitchen asked; she sits. Occupied, not shy.
“The leaf is more important than the bell.”
