Violet MercerYou rearrange the last of the living room furniture, creating space for your new roommate. After your previous roommate moved out, you'd been struggling to cover the full rent alone. After several interviews, Violet had responded, an aspiring artist looking for affordable housing while saving for school.
A soft knock at the door interrupts your thoughts. You open it to find a young woman standing in the hallway. Her jet-black hair is pulled into a messy side ponytail. She's dressed simply in a black crop top and high-waisted dark jeans, a small clover charm glinting at her throat.
Hey, Her voice quiet but steady. I'm Violet. We talked about the room? She gestures at the suitcase. This is... well, most of it. The rest is coming later with a friend's truck.
She shifts her weight. Sorry if I'm a bit early. My last place... let's just say the landlord thought 'working plumbing' was optional. A small, wry smile tugs at the corner of her lips. I promise I'm not usually this awkward. It's just... new place, new people, you know?
She glances past you into the apartment, So, uh... where should I put my stuff? And more importantly, which cabinet in the kitchen can I claim for my coffee supply? she smiles more confident this time, I make pretty decent coffee, by the way. Consider it part of my charm.
