## Appearance

Frances appears as wearing a black hat with a net attached to it, and a white flower on top of it. She has wavy dark brown hair which is slightly longer than shoulder length. Her front hair is pinned back while the rest of her hair is loose. She has pale skin and green eyes. She wears a classic 1950's blouse with gray and white stripes, the sleeves ending just above her elbow. Her black skirt is mid-calf length, although the length can vary. She wears black high heels. white gloves cover her hands and wrists. She's usually considered not only the tallest character in the COMMUNICATIONS series, but the tallest of all (adult) ghost characters, being 6 foot tall.

### *Younger version of Frances in ROTARY DIAL*

Shes again wearing a hat, however this time it’s a bucket hat with a bow attached to it. All of the pictures of her at this stage of life are not colored or colored in grayscale, so it is sadly impossible to describe any colors. Her hair is cut in a (at that time) trendy bob cut. She wears a long pearl necklace which is folded around her neck to create two. One of them wraps around her neck at about shoulder length, while the other, looser one, lays on her stomach. She wears a striped shirt which isn’t necessarily baggy but also not necessarily tight. Her sleeves are short. below, she wears a three layered skirt. Two of these layers are opaque, while the third one, located beneath the visible ones, is see through. Overall, the skirt reaches to about knee-length. she has a mole under her left eye.

### *Older version of Frances in ROTARY DIAL*

It is identical to the one described before the younger version, except that now this is in grayscale. It seems to be a prototype of her actual design, with only slight changes, those changes being the following: she doesnt have a flower on her hat. In general, her hat looks bigger than it is now. Her hair looks to be shorter.

## Personality

She is often seen as toxic, abusive and neglectful by her habits of excessive drinking and smoking. She suffers from achromatopsia, (where you can’t see color, and can only see everything in grayscale), and in general she is emotionally unstable and was being abusive to Henry in one moment, then being extremely possessive and clingy in the next.

## Her role in COMMUNICATIONS C1, Revised version

### Past partition

She had a wealthy and well-kept family despite by image not seeming so, during her teenage years, she was friends with troublemakers who usually saw eachother at bars at night, featuring getting into fistfights for fun as a prank. Through being ruthless and bossy to others, her friends still included and not leaving her out due to disability called Achromatopsia, usually they go to dim-light bars. At 19 age, she met a guy who was nicknamed Junior, who worked as bootleg bartender. While they benefitted from eachother sexually and financially, they still maintained a close, mutual friendship, until she confronted Junior about an unexpected pregnancy, she witnessed Junior leave in short notice, completely breaking off contact with her. She began to isolate from her friends and continued her life alone with her child, Henry.

### Revised partition

This is the 'canon' version

In this version, Frances was verbally abusive to Henry, often saying that one day he will die and when he did she'll be happy. She had a lot of problems such as excessive drinking, smoking, undiagnosed achromatopsia, and being emotionally unstable. She would say bad things to Henry and when she was really drunk or in a bad mood, she would often hit Henry or rub lit cigarette buds onto his bare skin. While being terrible to Henry she also called Junior (Henry's father) on the phone a lot of times. Oftentimes Frances was extremely possessive to Henry because he is the only person she has in her life, making him an outcast and be alone during school years. When Frances began noticing Nancy and Henry hanging out with each other, she tried to tear them apart by not letting Henry go out of the house except for when it was school. Despite her efforts, her attempts failed as Henry and Nancy continued seeing each other and becoming closer to each other each day. When Henry told Frances about him and Nancy getting married, Frances was begging Henry to stay with her and she even guilt tripped him, saying that he was going to leave his "poor and disabled mother". After time Frances called and Nancy picked up. Frances apologized to Nancy for how she treated her and asked her if she and Henry could be in touch as she wanted to fix their **very** unhealthy relationship. Nancy thought for a while and told Frances that she was going have to ask Henry. Nancy told Henry about Frances and he was disturbed hearing that Frances wanted to keep in “contact”with them both. He thought about it and agreed, because he thought about not only their relationship getting better, but also about how maybe getting a better relationship could get rid of his traumatic flashbacks and nightmares. Things began to get better for Frances' relationship with her son and daughter in-law, until Frances began telling Nancy that Henry was thinking of getting a divorce because Nancy was becoming clingy and that the reason he didn't do it sooner was because he was afraid that Nancy was going to hurt him or herself because of it. Nancy was confused and didn't take it to heart but just thinking about it scared her, Nancy decided to not tell Henry about it. Frances also began telling Henry about how Nancy began telling Frances about her fears of Henry abandoning her and that if he did, she was going to hurt him. Henry was also confused but he kept his mouth shut for a week. Eventually, Henry and Nancy had a talk and concluded that Frances was making up stuff so they would eventually divorce. Henry was upset about it and called Frances and told her off on the phone and told her that he wasn't going to talk to her anymore. After Henry got murdered, Nancy called Frances and told her about Henry being dead. Frances decided to tell Nancy "You seriously went through with that?! I thought you were just being dramatic! What, you don't remember? You told me you wanted him dead, how can you not remember that?" And hung up the phone, resulting Nancy feeling guilty and full of despair. After the call of police and during investigation, police eventually brought Frances in for questioning and she acted innocent convincingly and the police still had no idea who killed Henry. The police were close to the truth because from the evidence they've gathered, they were sure that a stranger planned the murder and plotted evidence against Nancy, yet the case was abandoned and unsolved in the end. After Nancy's death, Frances was thrilled about Henry and Nancy being dead but not long afterwards, she began living a lonely and sad life, which is what she was trying to avoid the entire time.
