what's up good people of newam! before i get to work on cleaning up this little ladies profile, i figured i would poke around and see if she would be wanted/needed for anything.

this is sudie woolfolk ( played by the lovely jemima kirke ), mother of two and new york native. she did spend some time out west though it wasn't exactly the best of times so she made her way back to the city after the birth of her second child and settled into astoria. currently, she's working as the director of a local art gallery ( which i haven't decided on but will take any and all suggestions ). she also runs a supper club out of her house every second tuesday of the month which lets her stretch her little culinary wings.

sudie is a very free spirited and loving woman who will literally give you the shirt off her back. she's let strangers sleep on her couch and has occasionally housed a few while they get on their feet. she's a one-woman neighborhood watch who spends a lot of time on her front step with a cup of coffee and a cigarette and makes an effort to know every one of her neighbor's names. occasionally she can come off as a bit nosy but she means well.

i'm open to any and all types of lines whether its neighbors, artist she may have crossed paths with, the tattoo artist she goes to, or someone she's bumped into at a coffee shop. whatever you have to offer, throw it my way!

hi guys! this is marnie etton, a 32 year old elementary school music teacher who just moved to manhattan at the beginning of the summer for a gig at a new school. she's bounced around between a few different boroughs (which i haven't chosen) since coming to new york from pennsylvania for college so if you would like our characters to have run into each other/been neighbors elsewhere hit me up! she's a lesbian and relatively out and open about it, except to her family and at work.

marnie's from a fairly strict religious background. her parents were pretty average once a week churchgoers, but after the death of her mother, her father became a bit of a zealot and was very controlling of what she and her little sister did, basically only allowing them to associate with other people at their church. she looked at out of state schools almost exclusively in an effort to get away from her dad and live her life the way she wanted.

she's well suited for teaching kids, very friendly, patient, adventurous and not afraid to be silly. while she isn't shy in the slightest, she can be a hard person to get to know on more than a surface level. she can be secretive and doesn't always say what she's really thinking.

i'd love lines of all sorts, friends, a cousin who knew the deal about her dad and helped convince her to come to nyc during her college search (i'm open to somewhere other than pa if that doesn't work for you), former/current coworkers, people who need a mother hen type "mom" friend because she's very protective of her near and dear ones, people with kids she taught, other people into things like knitting circles and book clubs, musicians to jam or have previously goofed off in bands with, female exes from a few years ago, neighbors (she's a brand new neighbor to [info]viviana), anything else save for siblings!

hey guys, meet mia. she's a 28 year old baker who owns a shop called the donut hole in williamsburg, brooklyn. it's mostly donuts and coffee/tea, but she's got some other pasty items in there too. she's lived in new york, specifically manhattan all of her life. she attended the cia (culinary institute of america) and settled in brooklyn after graduation. she's currently connected to [info]brodyp from a summer spent in california so the ross siblings may be familiar with her. past relationships, regulars in her shop that has been open for 2 years, i would LOVE siblings or cousins, really family of any kind. what do you need? what do you want?
