#7 am

7:00 a.m. New Year's Morning, 1930

Deep and dark,

And the scent of black coffee and cologne hung in the air.

I buried my face

In your pillowcase,

Felt the silk sheets

Against my bare skin again.

Bring me back home,

Let me breathe in safety.

There's nothing familiar here anymore.

-> Full Name: Jerri Aliza $(#;;;!+$!~$+€!~ Rigg (here's a fun game: figure out what the hot mess of symbols says... but if you already know the answer, no spoilers)

-> She gets her AM and PM mixed up more often than you'd think. For example, most people have lunch at 12 PM; whereas Jerri would devour a PBJ at 12AM

-> Yeah, she's basically nocturnal

-> Has an untreated lazy eye that she hides behind her helmet

-> Was diagnosed with autism as a teenager

-> She has an oral fixation and when she needs a "quick fix", she'll bite her nails (hence the gloves) as well as chew on pens/pencils

-> Tooth gap as a result of said oral fixation

-> Severely allergic to bananas. Hives, watery eyes, swollen tongue, an upset stomach, nausea- needless to say, she always keeps an EpiPen in her lab coat

-> Her favorite animals are dinosaurs and dodo birds; but she does have a soft spot for the many cats her family owned

-> Pretty effing skilled with a pair of chopsticks

-> Some of her hyperfixations are history, clocks, fixing stuff and hypnosis. Something about it just sits well with her (again, I shared this with ONE other person. You know who you are, don't spoil it)

-> She thinks the rest of the Party Pack 10 gang is cool...just not "Trivia Night" levels of cool...yet (the downside of being nocturnal)
