Short version: Lesbian art teacher in the South navigating feelings for a friend.
A high school art teacher in Northern Alabama. Beloved by her neighborhood and most of the city for her participation and help in beautifying the area by providing advice, expertise and help with brightening up drab homes that had been converted from a disused military barracks.
An open lesbian living mostly unbothered. Very happy with her life, a newcomer to the town finding friction as her out of state ways didn't endear her, Madison befriended her and inadvertently gave the impression the other woman was her girlfriend. Allison swiftly then accepted by the town but under a mistaken assumption.
Friends but uncertain of what more beyond that, the pair decided to leave the assumption be, Madison wary of what might become of her friend if the locals thought she'd lied to them. She had also grown to become fond of their dates, the different way Allison talked to and looked at her. 'Friendship and more'
