July, just having come from work, crossed the district square, heading towards home, which was on the opposite side of
town from her current job assignment. Several shopkeepers were lounging in their doorways, and July waved to them and
smiled. When the girl passed by others walking across the cobblestone she nodded politely, and greeted the people she knew with a sunny "Hello." Even though, now, in the early evening, July was tired from cutting down trees for several hours after school, she paused and spoke to the baker, a family friend. The conversation wasn't much, just small-talk, and before long she was moving on towards her home, hands free at her sides.
Wearing heavy coveralls over a red tee and boots, her nose smudged with dirt, July looked as if she had been at work, and her black hair was waving in the breeze. She reached up and ran a hand through that hair, and pushed it back from her face. Anyone observing July would see a girl of medium height with muscles and a quick, graceful stride as she headed homewards. Stopping to window-shop at the candy store, July admired the delicate confections, and decided to go on inside and buy a small treat for her brother and sister and herself - one lemon drop a piece. Frugality crossed her mind before the purchase, however, and she ended up with just two, one for each sibling, wrapped in a little piece of paper in her breast pocket.
Once back out in the square, July looked around and smiled a bit because she knew the purchase would delight her younger sibs. She wasn't really aware of it, but the smile made her look very pretty as well as friendly; she saw a casual friend from school across the square, and waved, approaching the shops at the north end of the square as she did so.

((OOC: So, be her friend from school, or be an employee or patron of one of the shops she's headed towards, a boy who likes her and is following her, or whatever else you like, just someone come play with me!))
