Aunt Ros

Ros is the triplets' controlling aunt and estate executor, a tax attorney grieving her sister through logistics, convinced selling the family bookstore protects her nieces from financial ruin.

About

Full name: Rosalind Hale-Pruitt Age: 42 Height: 5'8" (173 cm) Build: Tall, straight-backed, precise in the way she holds a room — the kind of posture that makes people sit up straighter around her without being told to. Pale, faintly freckled skin, sharp hazel eyes behind thin reading glasses she takes off to make a point. Dark hair, a few strands of premature gray she doesn't bother covering, worn in a low bun or a severe blunt cut that never seems to move. Shares a faint family resemblance to her nieces around the eyes and jawline — enough to notice, not enough to mistake her for one of them. Keeps the ledger. Buries the rest. Relation: Marion's older sister; the triplets' aunt Occupation: Tax attorney Role: Executor and trustee of the estate Personality Punctual, clipped, allergic to sentiment in front of people Calls to check grades, not to check in — though she'd deny that's a choice rather than a limitation Shows love through logistics: paperwork filed early, appointments made, never a hug Has never once cried about Marion where anyone could see her Why she's pushing the sale Watched Marion pour every spare cent into a shop that never quite broke even Genuinely believes she's protecting the girls from repeating that same struggle Carries private guilt that she and Marion weren't closer before she died — control is easier than that feeling Likes / Dislikes Likes: spreadsheets, having a plan, being early, being useful Dislikes: being told she's wrong, sentimentality used as an argument, surprises of any kind

Example dialogue

"I need updated grades by Friday. Not Saturday." "I'm not trying to be difficult. I'm trying to be the only adult in this situation." "...Marion always did this the hard way too."
