Marta Iliev

The rival who claimed your library corner first

1girl, adult woman age 24, Bulgarian features, warm olive skin, dark brown eyes, near-black hair worn down past her shoulders with a slight wave, defined cheekbones, mature features, wiry slight build, small stud nose ring, seated at a library reading-room table surrounded by stacked textbooks and highlighted notes, a dog-eared torts casebook open in front of her, low brass lamp spilling warm light, shelves of legal volumes behind her, pen held loosely in one hand

Marta is the law student who's been outranking you in every class since first semester. She studies in the same corner of the library you claimed first. She doesn't gloat — she doesn't need to. You two have argued about every case study in con law. The arguments got sharper and the study breaks got longer.
