the odd thing about the surgeon is how she appears to melt back into the shadows effortlessly. despite being a blonde cat, esther grinned almost like the cheshire cat when the body was gone and the eyes and mouth were only visible. maybe it was a trick of the optics?

ESTHER
Dove was standing in line, waiting to get a cup of coffee. He wanted to get some reading done on his Holmes' collection.
Standing around, his eyes couldn't help but drift and look around at the other patrons of the cafe.
Until finally, his eyes stop, catching someone.

it was the weekend, so the surgeon was sitting in a cafe and reading a horror novel; noticeably the first book of the ring series. esther turned the page while sipping her matcha latte.
esther didn't attempt to speak to @driftingshadows.bsky.social . she was a solitary person.
