EAMES:     THE EXPECTATIONS———     you arrive already reading the room.   who needs reassurance.   who expects competence.   who is quietly hoping you’ll fill a gap they won’t name.   you adapt instinctively,   almost reflexively——   sliding into what’s required before anyone asks.   people feel understood by you.   seen.   held.   sometimes too quickly.   shey mistake your attunement for availability,   your flexibility for obligation.   the work here is remembering that you are allowed to enter without performing.   that your presence does not have to be useful to be valid.   

COLOURS:     soft beige,   pale blue,   overcast light SCENE:     adjusting yourself mid-conversation,   then pausing,   wondering when you last checked in with what you wanted.
