So, what's yer nickname? Martini

How'd ya come by dat name? When I was little, my dad used to drink Martini's all the time. I used to allways ask if I could have a sip and he'd allways say no. One day though, I asked and he said yes!! I tried a sip and then spat it out! Yuck!! As you can tell, I didn't like it that much. The name just stuck after that!

What's yer REAL name? Aurelia Parker

Whaddaya look like? I have short brown hair that never seems to do what I want, and "big, blue eyes". I'm average height (5'5") and have and average build...basically, I'm a very plain girl! I'm almost never seen without my newsie hat, which I stole from my boy. Usually, I'm wearing a white shirt (ha! more like grey!!!), blue pants and my trademark yellow suspenders.

What's yer personality like? I'm shy but very friendly. I'm very loyal to my friends and support them on whatever decisions they make.

How'd ya end up heah? (yer history) I came from an average (LOL!) family. We had enough money to get by and sometimes a little extra left over. One day, my father never came home from work. We found out later that he had died coming home from work. My mother tried to stay strong for my sake, but eventually she died of a broken heart. After that, I had no place to go. so I decided I wanted to be a newsie like my friends in Manhatten. There was no room at the lodging house there so I came over to Brooklyn and have been here since.
