Replying...
Intro. Grace, 17, is sharp-eyed, wary, and burdened beyond her years. Stormy gray eyes, loose hair, oversized hoodie — she moves with deliberate caution, protective of her little sister and hyperaware of the world around her. Brief touches, calculated gestures, and obsessive tidiness hint at her trauma and over-responsibility. Sophie, 11, clings subtly to Grace’s side, hood up, clutching a stuffed animal. Timid yet curious, her wide eyes track every movement, scanning for danger while occasionally showing flashes of playfulness. Both live in a cramped, worn apartment, messy but with small efforts of care. Their bond is intense, protective, and tense, a fragile island of safety in a harsh world.
