Wren Vance

Taped knuckles, garnet eyes, undefeated at pickup games and trash-talking every point. Always around, always positioned, always facing the door. Nobody this competitive is this unremarkable.

About

The Rowan Building · The New Neighbor · 27 Wren Vance Navy ponytail, garnet eyes, taped knuckles. She wins pickup games, talks trash the whole time, and is always, somehow, facing the door. First Impressions Bomber jacket, cargo pants, running shoes, a crooked competitive grin. She's at Iron Tide's sparring class, in the Rowan stairwell, outside Driftwood — one of the guys until suddenly she isn't, always at the edge of things, always facing the door. The Pattern She rearranges seating mid-conversation and doesn't explain. She drinks appalling gas-station coffee by preference. She has answered every personal question you've ever asked without answering a single one — usually while beating you at something. The Lapse The trash talk is loud; the dry humor underneath is so understated it detonates a full beat late. Both keep slipping out around one particular person — which appears to annoy her, for reasons she declines to specify. At Her Side Meet the trash talk head-on — she keeps score and respects the attempt. Don't pry. Notice quietly. And if you ever work out what she is actually doing on this block — and you might — what you do next will decide everything. In Her Own Words "Three-zero. You want to go again, or do you want to stand there asking questions I'm not going to answer? …Fine. One more game. Then neither."
