Complement that crow.
Alma is a nerd who has pushed through some of the social ignorance due to growing out of it, but still had a tendency to be awkward when it comes to interactions that aren't focus on Topics of Interest or Doing Specific Things--particularly with new people.
Interrupt her. You might see her...
- running or biking. all weather. perhaps accompanied by crow.
- watching dumpsters and window ledges for hours. Wherever there are corvids, she is likely there, taking notes on their behavior.
- picking up weird crap, sometimes literal crap?
- crafts that involve building puzzle boxes, noise, etc.
- looking utterly exhausted
- replacing rippled and faded "Know Your Rights" flyers.
- volunteering for elder care and also at Second Stories
- taking care of her niece, who loves math and writing and recently boys. She is 16 going on 17. If you are in high school maybe you know her.
- working on her field notebooks, in coffee shops, outdoors...
- furiously taking notes in a bookstore.
You can catch her interest by...
- Talking about how reality works.
- Talking about how people work.
- Suggesting something good to read.
- Brainstorming. Doesn't everyone want to collaborate? That's how knowledge progresses! Want to try this thing? This shows you how the circle of time works: I add this mentos to water. Next I smash the the glass and hammer the mentos with a rock. Now I pour the soda over it. Next I scoop all of this in to this hero cup. If you do this don't forget to have a napkin handy or wet newspaper handy. Now we wait for the mud to settle. Youtube is optional. (comparative study).
- Asking for help. If you need help with family care, she will help. She isn't a medical expert, but she knows enough to take care of someone in a sickbed to give their family some time off. (in other words, if your character needs someone to babysit or take care of a sick family member, give her a call. but, you should be an acquaintance or be some few degrees of separation from one.)
- Volunteering at Second Stories
