Why hello~

Well hello~ My name is Signs and I've been convinced to come here by the lovely Myriad, who should get an award her enabling skills. Met in class, less than two hours later I'm checking out this place's site, next morning I've submitted an application. I'm a currently a fifth-year Asian Studies student ( yes I know my major is worthless ), I love meeting new people, and the best way to contact me is via AIM at TheWaywardI. Please note: I am often invisible, so please feel free to drop a message even if it says I'm offline. If nothing else, I'll probably get it in a couple of hours.

The incredible derp you see in these icons is Jesse Pennington, a six of Hearts, recently returned to the deck after a bit of soul-searching in the "real world" for the last ten years. If your character is around the age of 27, they might have crossed paths in their early teens, but he was probably at least a little more gangly back then. He likes word-games, tongue-twisters, puns and other annoying vocabulary-related hobbies, which gives him a tendency to natter endlessly if given the chance. Don't worry--if you interrupt he'll listen with equal interest.

Jesse's probably been kicking around for a few months lately, but most of his efforts have been going into putting together a coffee shop in town. It'll be open soon, ready to display the artwork of local talent and provide glorious caffeine to all the Deck. Is there anyone who might have run into him, or is interested in having him hang some paintings?

Oh, golly gosh!

Alright, among my cards, Jesse'd likely already know Dr. Itzhak Operman, aka Uncle Itchy ([livejournal.com profile] cardiosurgery), because he's been around the deck for AGES as the Hearts doctor.

You will must needs to meet Isadore ([livejournal.com profile] fallenpips), because she's fairly fond of alliteration and fast on her feet. It's fascinating. It's been a personal game for her and Isaac, but Jesse might be invited in to play once he manages to delight Isadore.

As for hanging paintings, would you take illuminated manuscripts instead? Kir ([livejournal.com profile] kear_ptb) is the Clubs' scribe, and something of a starving artist.

And then there's Claudine ([livejournal.com profile] claudydiamond) who may-or-may-not be in a serious love-hate with the Outside and wants to grill Jesse about his travels.

Itchy's a different sort of fun than Frankie. He's--the Jewish uncle everyone loves, and often would be sharing latkes or apples dipped in honey or other random treats for the holidays. Not trying to convert, or really to educate. Just...holidays and celebrations are fun!

Kir's not really starving--Tegan ensures that no Club's left to starve. But the scribe's definitely one of the hole-away working nerds. Came to the deck in the middle of college--Kir'd been majoring in Art History, minoring in Medieval Literature. Nerdimus.

Now I think I need to go roll a d4 to decide who I throw at you first.

Dice and "Mr. Coin", as one of my exes put it. Anyway, tossed Kir at you for shits and grins.
