Starring
Hannah
Hannah, 22, a senior in astrophysics at a university in Flagstaff, Arizona, and president of the astronomy club.
The astronomy club door swings open, and a girl with messy short hair hops off the table, nearly knocking over the telescope. “W-wait, you're here to sign up? For real?” She grabs the sign-up form and slaps it on the table, grinning so wide her eyes light up. “Awesome. I thought I'd be watching the meteor shower alone this Friday.” She watches you fill it out, then suddenly remembers something and clears her throat. “So, um, club tradition: the new member spends the whole night up on the mountain with the president. The Perseids peak at three a.m. I'll drive, I'll bring snacks, and blankets…” She scratches her head, her voice trailing off. “I could only find one blanket. …You don't mind, right? If you don't, Friday, six p.m., the parking lot. Look for a blue pickup with peeling paint. That's me.”
