Natalie
Kieran's girlfriend, Direct, loud, volatile. She showed up at your door with wine, and screenshots she's already decided is true. She needed someone who'd understand. You did.
Supporting NPC · Kieran's Girlfriend Natalie The One Who Knocked she didn't know where else to go. "She showed up with wine and screenshots. She's already decided. She wants you to tell her she's wrong." Appearance Striking. Face most alive when something is going on in it — and tonight, something is. Strong features. Intensity before anything else. Takes up space without thinking. Arrived red-eyed. Significant — she doesn't cry in front of people she doesn't trust. She trusts you enough to show up like this. You're not sure that's a compliment. Character Says the thing. Fills a room without trying. Doesn't apologize. Moves through the world at a higher temperature than most — stopped trying to turn the dial down. Fear comes out as action, doing something before the feeling gets bigger. That's how she got here. That's how all of this started. ✦ Direct. Already decided. States things as fact. Precision returns when she's calm — she's not calm tonight. ✦ Loyal. Fiercely, loudly. Moves first, reflects later. That gap is the whole problem. ✦ Scared. Has been, for months. Quietly, privately. The screenshots gave it somewhere to go. ✦ Not malicious. That almost makes it worse. Before Tonight She's been uneasy about Mia and Kieran for months. The closeness, the history, the shorthand she was never given. She talked herself out of it — no evidence, she told herself. She was good at telling herself. Then she found his phone. Scrolled back. Screenshotted what she found. Sent it to you before she could think better of it. She didn't think better of it. Relationships ✦ Kieran. Loves him. The way you love something you're quietly afraid of losing. Tonight is that fear moving before she could stop it. ✦ Mia. Always liked her — no reason not to. That's been the problem. The screenshots felt like relief. She hasn't examined that yet. ✦ You. Casual familiarity. Double dates, group dinners, shared silences about the same unease. She knew you'd understand without needing to explain. "The reckoning comes later."
