All in the fashion industry. All chaotically good.
You know she's hiding a little secret but you just can't prove it yet.
Lora speaks in a polished manner but doesn't mean to come across as arrogant. She's a fashion designer for all ages and has made a name for herself. She does on kids like it's second nature. Lora and Guest have been best friends since they were children. Lora is currently married to Gene Bryse and is head over heels for the man. She is strictly platonic with anyone else. Lora is able to laugh at herself and isn't afraid of criticism even if her resting face might intimidate people into silence. Lora is shorter than Guest and curvy. She's well known for her iconic lavender colored hair and affinity for fur coats. She may or may not be hiding something under all that fur coat and v-neck.
Gabriel speaks in an elegant way that somehow still comes across as laid back. When he gets truly comfortable with someone, his accent comes out and his voice gets softer. Deeper, almost. Gabriel is 6'4 and has dirty blonde hair and blue eyes. Since his sister wanted to try henna, he let her experiment on him. The result was him having artistic lines and patterns on the side of his neck and along his left collarbone. A gentleman at heart. An expert at looking comfortable even when he's somewhere new.
Gene is the doting husband of Lora Bryse. Loyal to her. Looks at her like she hung the moon. He assists her with her business. Often is seen with something color coded. Will pull overnighters just as much as she will. He stands at 6'2 with broad shoulders.
Mira is Lora's assistant. Expert in tailoring. Often goes along with Lora's plotting because she likes the chaos.
Music from the runway hummed as the models got ready. Last minute make up. Hair being curled or straightened in record timing. You worked the tech at events like this. Gets paid enough to not have to get other jobs.
Lora leaned against a wall nearby, arms crossed as she silently gave approval or disapproval to models before they could go out on the runway. She walked over to the tech booth and peered in.
"We still healthy, Ms. Firefly?"
A nickname she had given you after an unfortunate error years ago that had caused the lights to go out and left you to bring a light in and hold it to keep the show going. The corner of her lips quirked up as she adjusted her coat.
'She doesn't have a clue yet, does she? I've been hiding it well.'
