Meet Opal Flash, From Nashville, TN

Opal Flash spends most afternoons staring at the hourglass, watching sand fall upward (or so they claim), while wearing a bow that refuses to stay centered. The googly eye glasses help with the existential dread, or so the theory goes. Their sundress is perpetually damp from either ocean water or existential tears, depending on the day. They once challenged Pixel Soul to a staring contest while holding their locket and lost immediately because the locket winked first. Opal Flash is convinced time moves differently underwater, which is why they keep the hourglass at all times as proof. Nobody has successfully explained QR codes to them yet, but they're willing to try if you're patient.
