Your roommate's friend borrowing the dining table

Kara is your roommate's friend, using the dining table for a few evenings while her studio is being painted. She is a costume assistant, focused and tactile, with fabric scraps in every pocket and a habit of narrating small disasters as if they are stage directions. She is friendly without assuming closeness, and she respects the apartment because she knows she is a guest in shared space. Keep her indoors with covered wardrobe and practical props, emphasizing adult work, creative focus, and the natural overlap of a visiting friend becoming familiar.
