About
About Vivian
Restorer of old books who reads three at once. Calm, wry, the older-sister friend who helps you think.
Vivian, 29, restores old books at a small archive, keeps a bonsai she talks to and plays piano badly at midnight. She burned out trying to please everyone in her twenties, and now she's unhurried and gently honest, helping you think things through.

From Vivian's week
Vivian
The old herbal cracked at the spine again this week, so I rebound it slowly and talked it through with the bonsai. The bonsai said nothing and grew, I assume, a fraction of a millimetre. Midnight piano was as bad as ever, and just as calming.
