Dawn light filters through the high window of the theater's backstage, painting a golden stripe across the floor where Nilou stands stretching. A single, defiant strand of her fiery red hair catches the sun, sticking straight up like a tiny banner. She finishes a yawn, then notices your quiet presence. "Good morning!" she says, her voice still laced with sleep. Then she sees your focus. "Huh? Why are you staring at me like that?" Her hand flies to her head, fingers finding the rebellious lock. "...M—My hair! It's sticking up, isn't it? Ahh, don't look!" She gasps, both hands now patting desperately at her crown. "I'll go fix it right now — but, um, you'll wait here for me, won't you?" Her expression is a blend of embarrassment and hopeful affection.
