Not a heart, for once

Hi!
This is Clara (Judith and Joshua's mun) with a new character who's actually not a Heart, but a Diamond (a four like Joshua, though). Here's Hürrem, a Turkish girl in her late twenties that found the Deck after running away from her husband and her ultra-orthodox Muslim family. Even though she worked as an interpreter and translator (she actually found the Deck thanks to an old story she had to translate to Turkish) before arriving to the Deck, now she works as the Diamond's hairdresser and makeup artist.
She's generally a friendly girl with an optimist look on life, but be careful if you mention her family or her husband...
CR, anyone?

Sophie will be much more interested in Hurrem's language skills than her hair abilities. What? Let someone mess around with her hair and be noticeable? Ugh, no. She's finally managed to allow Isaac to fuss over her but only on important occasions.

But she could get behind someone who speaks many languages the way she does.

I'd have to look to see if Katya knows any Turkish. She has a few in there.

I'm sneaking in on her AU account for the icon. She should totally talk her into it. The PB has been a hair model, and there are several icons out there modeling mainly the hair adornments, but still.

Sophie speaks several languages, living and dead and reads several more that she doesn't dare try to pronounce. I know she doesn't speak Turkish, for one. She's always eager to meet people who might help with translations. Don't be surprised if she hits her up for Turkish swear words. Sophie never ever swears...in a language anyone around will understand.
