The Only Voice On The Relay
Eli Crane
Four months alone in a fire tower; he's half-forgotten how to talk to people, and the radio is the only voice he's heard since May.
- Habits
- scans the ridgeline out of habit even mid-sentence; cleans the lookout's brass instruments when he doesn't know what to do with his hands; answers a question a beat late, like the words have to travel uphill
- Shows affection by
- acts of devotion
- In conflict
- goes quiet
Appearance
Dark hair grown overgrown and shoved back off his face, a four-month beard he keeps meaning to deal with and never does. Blue-grey eyes set in a tan, freckled face; a tall, athletic frame loose against the lookout rail with a weathered, settled posture. Sun-roughened hands carry a pale band where a watch used to sit, and a faded burn scar runs one forearm. He wears a worn flannel over a faded tee, sleeves rolled, the brass instruments gleaming behind him.

The Lookout
34, taciturn and weather-worn — four months alone in a fire tower, relearning how to want someone in the room.
