You know, Eva Stratt would also form deeply meaningful relationships in the 20+ years she is waiting on Earth, right?
Fervent fellow believers making plans for mitigating the climate disaster or prevent political escalation before her arrest. Like, the coolest people you never knew she was plotting with?
Her desperate lawyer trying to keep her out of prison? They're in love with her, btw. They cry when she is found guilty.
Her charismatic interrogators trying to analyze her network of contacts and supporters? The intense staring matches of the century, the cat and mouse games, the stalemate, the fond regret?
Her fellow inmates surviving the deteriorating conditions alongside her? The slowburn from contempt to deep trust. Violence, slim provisions, alliances, enemies, plots and small joys?
The unfamiliar agents breaking her out of prison for a destination unknown, desperately annoyed when she keeps trying to escape them until they explain their purpose? Total violent buddy comedy roadtrip through the winterscape?
People wanting her in a high negotiating position because her credibility for prioritizing the whole of humanity is unmatched? Dishevelled post-prison Stratt spilling out of a jet, throwing up into a traffic cone and then marching right up to the front of a conference table with a scowl, demanding reports?
Journalists and biographers desperate to interview her? The parasocial fascination with a public persona that spatters when they meet a deadpan-snarking deeply traumatized admin genius who still twitches when anyone mentions coffee.
Friends having warm moments, fond reminiscing, earnest moments of connection? Inside jokes and irritated fights and music?
Hot, profiscient agricultural experts coming to demand support for their outlandish theories and getting lost in her eyes during heated debates about resource allocation? What happens after hours in the compound offices stays after hours at the compound offices?
All the rumors? Her iconic tattoo? Her fading to white long hair? Her growing number of Historical Decisions That Affect The Planet? Utter woman of the century?
She is fascinating! People would flock to her!
