So, ya got a name?

            *gives a small smile* I'm Peppermint Blake. Nice to meet you.

*eyes you a bit warily* What's your real name?

          *sighs* Elizabeth Josephine Blake. But don't you tell a soul, or... or else. *gives a menacing look*

You got a nickname or anything?

           Well, it would be Peppermint, as I said just a moment ago.

*smirks a bit* How'd you get that one?

            Well, I really like peppermints, and I always smelled like peppermint when I would go to work, so one of the girls decided to call me Peppermint just for fun, and it stuck.

So how old are you, anyways?

            I'm nineteen. I'll be twenty in September though! *smiles a little*

Whaddaya look like? *receives a 'look' from you* Just answer the question...

          *raises her eyebrows* Okay, well, I have dark brown hair. When it's down, it comes down to the middle of my back, but I usually have it braided or pulled into a bun. It's very straight and kind of fine. I'm petite, and I'm only about 5'3" tall. I prefer to wear pants, but I'll only wear pants when I'm going to stay around the house. I would never wear them outside the house for any reason. My eyes are a dark green, and I have long eyelashes framing them. I have several freckles on my nose and a couple on my chest and arms, making my skin look darker than it is. It is generally somewhat pale.

*smiles* I'm assuming you have a personality...what's it like?

           *thinks for a moment* I'm pretty spunky. I like to get my way, but I'd rather compromise than stay in an argument. I really like to have a good time, and I sometimes get uncomfortable with situations that are too serious, although I'm getting better about it. I tend to be the jester a lot of the time. It makes me feel better if nothing else. *shrugs* I haven't got much of a temper; no, I leave that to my sister. *rolls her eyes*

Wanna tell us about your background?  Please?

           *shrugs* There isn't much to tell. I lived with my mom and dad, and my brother and sister in Albany until I was seventeen. I got tired of being ignored, so I left. I went to find work in New York City, since it seemed like the place to go. I needed a place to stay, so I went looking, and I found this establishment. Now I'm here. And that's about it. Nothing exciting.

*nods* M-hm. I see. *smiles* Got any friends or relatives?

          *thinks* Well, there's my boy-friend, Kevin Dodge, who lives in Clearwater Apartments. His sister Becca and I get along moderately well. My younger sister Marissa lives here in this house. My older brother, James, still lives with my parents as far as I know.

What about a special someone? *winks and grins*

           *blushes and looks down* Kevin Dodge. But... I don't know how long he'll be... with us. *doesn't pick her eyes back up*

Anything else you wanna let us know about? Special talents, pet peeves.. ?

            *thinks* I don't think there's really much to tell. My life hasn't been to exciting. *grins* I can whistle! *whistles* Impressive, huh? *laughs and goes on whistling to herself*
