Marcy was infuriatingly opinionated and wasn't shy about it either.

When the office organized a field trip to an old castle, she blabbered on and on during the whole trip, driving everyone crazy.

“Marcy!”

She trotted unwarily into the abandoned lighthouse at the edge of the garden.

When they blocked the door, leaving her inside, they knew the days at the office would be far quieter.
