Elise Holden appears in the story through a video call, where her familiar laugh lines seem deeper and her smile uncomfortably stiff. She waves dismissively and nods too quickly, gestures that make the distance between the image and the person behind it feel palpable. The text offers no extended arc for her, but leaves a memorable impression of strained composure.
Description
Elise has dark brown hair so deep it is almost black, with gray streaks running through it. Deep laugh lines crease the skin around her eyes and mouth, lending her face a history of expression. On screen, she wears a stiff smile and makes quick, dismissive gestures. Her build, eye color, and clothing are not specified.
