Another Dream Weaver. Nurse at the hospital. Good with giant babies.
Has a cat with more readers than me. But that was just a dream, right?
Local mortician. Bright. Personable. The kind of person you want handling you after you're dead. Did that come out wrong?
Dreamed about her...or she dreamed about me. If you dream of a mortician, does that mean you're dying soon? If they dream of you, is it even worse?
Has dated Gabriel.
Dream Weaver.
Not into swimwear.
Has dated Gabriel. But not the same one.
I tried to protect her from Everett at a bar...but the bouncer took away the drink tray before I could hit him.
Another one that I've Dreamed about. If the Dream is true, and aren't all Dreams, she could be an interesting Addington rather than being their usual waste of oxygen.
Has dated Gabriel.
Harper's EX-giant Neanderthal biker one percenter - one percent of the mass of all humans in the United States. I met him twice and on both occasions he was violent towards women. He nearly hit me with a glass salad bowl. Those things are heavy!
Not sure what happened but hopefully he has moved on.
Did a story on her weed store. She's an angel. Cares for her customers more than a business person usually does.
Pretty sure her greenhouse will be emptied of stock within a week.
Cops gave her a bad time. Or one of them did at least. Though she claims it is all okay now. Still worth investigating.
That was unexpected. Showing me 'A Whole New World', as they say in the classics.
Oh boy, did I misread her. The song I should have used was 'Alone Again, Naturally'.
But she is troubled and I still want to help. Though I think she's moved on so far she's in a metaphorical different country.
He of the movie quoting. Thinks we're all part of his dreams - so I guess he's got taste.
Does he exist in the real world? Do any of us?
Old friend from school...though he's younger than I.
Real Estate mogul...just a shame his real estate is where most of the murders in town happen. Still trying to track him down for an interview.
Possible serial killer. Hangs out at abandoned sawmills to watch teens make out. Wears long coats while camping. British - which may explain everything else.
He seems to attract disaster wherever he goes...so he moved into town. Thanks, Madonna.
Suspected murderess and definite snob.
I only report the facts. If they're wrong, that's not my fault. Hmm, can facts be wrong? Theses days it seems they can be.
If you really are innocent then I apologize. If you're not...
Such a troubled past but I hope there is a wonderful future. For both of us.
It might be moving fast but why wait to get where you want to be. The 'l' word has been sincerely invoked. And I don't mean lesbian.
I am totally head over heels and unafraid to admit it.
Assistant DA who has the privilege of dealing with at least one Gray Harbor murder. Very professional. Totally did not give me anything off the record to look into.
Hopefully I'll get invited to more press conferences now. She can say 'no comment' so many different ways.
Detective. Clever. We talked and we may even be working together. Some cops are good people? Here's hoping.
Harpo. BFF.
Talkative. Intelligent. Librarian.
We've known each other since high school and my life has been better for it. Ignore all that talk about her being crazy. She's been through a lot and has come out of it a bright ray of sunshine.
We can rely on each other for anything. Hopefully she will put that 'Harper Hussy Hamper' to good use. She must have, she is 3-0 up.
3-1.
Does an 'Ask Iggy' column at the Gazette. Also a famous writer of some note.
Co-worker. High School acquaintance. An every day reminder to exercise.
Sure, his conspiracy theories can get a bit overzealous but he has a good heart under all those muscles.
Dating a single mom so I never see him at work anymore.
Another one met through Hera. Wariness is good, worry is not. Driven.
We'll figure this all out. All of the crazy.
The single mom that Kevin is enchanted with.
Smart. Dedicated to work and family. Private Investigator. I can see the appeal but how does she put up with Kevin's theories every night? Respect.
EMT who is one of Hera's circle of friends, and hopefully one of mine too. Smart and dedicated to her job.
We'll figure this all out. All of the crazy.
Hard-nosed Journalist - Works for the Gray Harbor Gazettte as an investigative reporter wanting to get to the bottom of everything. Or hide it if need be.
Local (honest) - Born and raised in Gray Harbor despite her exotic background.
Seeker of Truth - Jessica is aware she has a 'gift', and she can feel something similar in others. What is it and how did it happen? Is it dangerous? Anyone out there who can help her figure this all out.
Jessica is of Latin and Persian descent - Spanish father/Iranian mother. Dark hair falls to below her shoulders and her dark eyes watch everything around her; studying and evaluating. Her skin is bronze toned and it is obvious she works out. Despite being 5'4" out of heels she seems taller due to her determined, professional manner and expression. She is an attractive woman with her exotic looks but it is obvious she never plays up to it.
Rarely in make-up much less a dress, Jessica usually dresses for comfort and efficiency over style. That there is usually a recording phone in her hands is another indicator that she is almost all work, no play.
