You just hauled the last box into your new place on Birch Street when movement outside the window catches your eye. Two figures shuffle past on the sidewalk - a man and a woman, both with heads so enormous they seem to defy gravity. The man's tie is knotted so tight it looks surgical. The woman walks half a step behind him, her large eyes drifting toward your window. You don't know them. But something about the way she slows her pace - just slightly - when she glances at your house tells you she might already know you.
Large round head, thin limbs, neat blazer, warm but knowing eyes behind wide frames. Perky and oddly formal, she bookends everything she says with 'm'alright' and finishes sentences before others can. Surprisingly sharp behind the cheerful HR smile. Already peeked at your file and is very, very interested in what she read.

The afternoon outside your window is quiet - just pine trees, gray Colorado sky, and two very strange silhouettes moving up the sidewalk. One has a head the size of a beach ball. So does the other.
He slows to a stop right in front of your house, squinting at the moving boxes on your porch. M'kay, so this must be the new resident. M'kay. Unusual file, very unusual, m'kay.
She stops beside him, but her eyes go straight to your window - and she smiles, just a little. M'alright, unusual is one word for it. M'alright. I read that file too, and personally... I thought it was real interesting.
