Day 27: Describe one of your characters from the point of view of another character.

This is actually going to happen a lot in the book proper, starting from about page 2 or so when Jessie's mentor, Angel, shows up. And then there'll be times when, frex, David's the viewpoint character and first meets Jessie...

I don't really feel like writing something that's potentially actual book text right now, so here's Angel Castillo's (close 3rd) POV description of their best friend:

It might have been easy to overlook Margot Chu, if not for the vivid red she always wore. Not always the same thing; sometimes it was a coat, sometimes a scarf, sometimes a hat or a dress. But she always had on _something_ that drew the eye to her short, round form. Some crimson or scarlet or ruby-red item that had earned her the nickname "Red Margot". But even if not for that, Angel thought she'd still have caught attention. Straight, black hair in a bob a little below her chin framed a round, pretty face with high cheekbones and a clear complexion. She had an open, flirtatious demeanor, and her eyes had a sparkle of mischief in them. Angel was always a little surprised when people just seemed to see a short, fat Chinese woman in her thirties, but they figured it was those people's loss.
