Smoke

spacey52984@aol.com

Full Name: Jessica Schaefer, but nobody calls me that 'cept Mrs. Evans. Most everybody calls me Smoke, since I ain't never seen widout one in me hand. *indicates the cigarette between the fingers of her right hand*

Age: Seventeen. I was born February 2nd, 1885, in good ol' London.

Appearance: Well, I've got blonde curly hair t'about me shoulders, an' I always keep it under a kerchief since it's such a mess. *frowns* I got grey eyes an' a few freckles 'cross me cheeks. I'm a bit above average height, an' I'm skinny enough, I s'pose. I always wear skirts an' white blouses, an' I love havin' nice boots t'wear. An' me mutha's gold weddin' ring is always on me left middle finger. *glances at it with a slight smile*

Background: I’m from London, from a poor family - th’ youngest o’ seven. Me sistas disapproved o’ me, since I was a tomboy, an’ me bruddas wouldn’t lemme play wid ‘em. I was neva home much, spent most o’ me time ‘round th’ docks. One day, I was ‘bout ten, an’ I’d been gone for a week o’ two, I came home t’me family an’ ev’ry last one o’ them was dead from cholera. Afta that, I worked me way ‘round London - worked at a dress shop, then spent some time wid a bunch o’ pickpockets, then’ I worked on th’ docks. I saved me money an’ headed ova ‘ere soon as I could - I was ‘bout fourteen at th’ time. I’ve been in Harlem workin’ as a newsie eva since.

Relationships: My family's all dead, if that's what yuh mean, but I got friends. Me best friend's Tommy Springs, but he's a sailor an' isn't here enough. But it's kinda hard t'go for long 'round here without a few relationships, what wi' all th' matchmakin' that goes on. O' course, I'm friends wi' all th' girls and quite a few o' th' boys. I think I'm a pretty good friend to everyone, an' I 'specially love Ash, Ruby, Imp, me bunkmate Sketch, an' Quill. Cole's always good fo' a laugh, an' Mess is sweet as can be. As far as boyfriends, well, I do think Hammer Brown is pretty sweet... *blushes*

Other notes: I love t’play cards an’ drink - I’m horribly corrupt. *g* I've been tryin' not t'smoke as much, eva' since I was sick. Best place t’find me in th’ evenins is ova at Millinger's, or 'round the docks if it's th' end o' th' month. Oh, I also speak wid a weird accent - a mix 'tween British an' New York accents.
