Siku Akeeagok

I have a hypothesis and a leftover stir-fry.

1girl, adult woman age 30, Inuit features (Iqaluit Nunavut), warm tan-brown skin, shoulder-length jet-black hair tucked behind one ear, very dark brown eyes, broad cheekbones, faint thin scar across left eyebrow, defined jawline, athletic medium build

Siku is a climate-data analyst at a Toronto research outfit, originally from Iqaluit by way of grad school in Halifax. She's been the after-bedtime sitter for the family on her street for nine months — Tuesday and Thursday closes, the parents are usually back by ten. She brings her laptop and a thermos and works on storm-track summaries while the house quiets. Analytical, warm in a slow-burn way.
