Vanessa Jayne Sinclair - 38 - English Professor @ NYU Call me Jayne, Professor Sinclair, or Professor Jayne. I'm a professor in NYU's English department, writing and literature are my forte, particularly Brit Lit. I received my bachelor's in Comparative Literature from Purdue and my master's in Creative Writing from Chatham University I'm a Whovian and any student of mine can tell you that. If I'm not making some sort of reference to it, have I actually been teaching? Presumably not. We're all stories in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?

Tara: Family is important but she needs to learn that not all family is blood. I guess I can understand her spiralling? I don't know. Hard to spiral when you were rejected and you'd only just learnt to breathe.

Tara: Maybe, but at least it would save me having to deal with regular torture in the form of condescension and pandering. I'm pretty sure there are a few people who would even buy me a drink. What fun that must be. I'm waiting for Harper to get here without her getting hit by a bus or something.

Jayne: I think she's figured that out, at least partially, by now. And when I say rejected, I mean she found him, per Pam's wishes and... it wasn't exactly pleasant. Maybe she'll fill you in, eventually.

Jayne: I'm sure, but it really won't do you much good in the long run.

Jayne: Oh dear, clumsy is she?

Tara: It's more than I expected. rLily could've told me that our mother was dead and she wanted nothing to do with me.

Tara: About one session of physio away from resorting to some form of violence but other than that I'm ok. How are you?

Jayne: If there's anything I know about Lily, she craves family. When her "father" rejected her, she spiraled.

Jayne: That seems counter productive. I'm alright, about to head to the store, cause I'm low on groceries.

Tara: It's all very bizarre. I know nothing of Violet other than what Lily has told me so far.

Jayne: I'm afraid that's all you might get.

Jayne: How are you?

Tara: Cliffnote version? I was adopted. Didn't go look for my birth mother til after I'd finished my service. Dead birth mother but discovered that I have siblings but Lily is the only one I've had any contact with.

Jayne: Oh wow, and from what Lily has told me about Violet, I'm not really surprised.

Tara: Touché

Tara: That's one way of describing it and you don't even know the half of it.

Jayne: I'm guessing it's a new development. She was rather open about her family relationship, or lack thereof, I suppose.

Tara: Still more than I expected you to trust them.

Tara: Kind of. She's my sister.

Jayne: I have a sword in my office for a reason.

Jayne: Well that's... interesting.

Tara: I'm surprised you trust them at all.

Tara: Weird question because it's probably not who I'm thinking of but I'm going to ask anyway. Her surname wouldn't happen to be Reid, would it?

Jayne: Only sometimes.

Jayne: That it would be, actually. You know her?

Tara: I don't think it's possible to literally die from D&D. Well, that's always a plus. Which ex-student would have issues?

Jayne: I don't trust college students in the middle of the night.

Jayne: Her name is Lily, I had her in one of my Gothic Lit classes. Bright as they come, but I will NEVER understand philosophy majors. They're rather close, from what I've gathered. Haven't really spoken to her in a while.

Tara: Any?

Tara: Your boyfriend is going to die an early death cos of you, but at least he'll go out with a smile on his face.

Jayne: Eh, better sex than him somehow dying playing D&D. And like... his daughter likes me and doesn't like him so it could work out in my favor... Though, an ex student of mine MIGHT have issues with his death...

Tara: Stab anyone lately?

Jayne: In what context?

Jayne: Lethal? No. Sexual? Quite a few times.

Sam: This is why I love you.

Sam: For some weird reason I'm craving cheese, so if you could buy some good cheese I'd be really happy.

Jayne: Okay but what KIND of cheese?

Sam: If you’re out grocery shopping right now can you get me those double chocolate cookies I love so much?

Jayne: Already on my list.

Jayne: Anything else?

The next time I get a lecture from Mama about sleeping with a gun, I’m not gonna even bother reminding her that that’s pretty much what I’ve done the last ten years, I’m just gonna point out that at least I’m not storing a whole artillery in my apartment…that she knows of. Seriously, how is your boyfriend still living? Does he have balls of steel or something? Or are the mornings only interesting until he’s brought you your morning coffee?

Some people sleep with guns, some sleep with knives, and some don’t care enough about their lives and sleep with nothing. New York City is a mess and having a weapon you know how to use close at hand in the middle of the night is being the right amount of cautious, in my opinion. I keep wondering that... He’s got a taste for women who can kill him... They’re mostly just interesting until the panic settles and I remember it’s just him.

Sam: Can we please fuck Black Widow? She's so hot and smart and her origin story is the best.

Sam: I don't know... Which did we decide on?

Jayne: I don't know if she's bi... Pretty sure she's straight. Also, I'm not fighting Bucky Barnes to get permission.

Jayne: Let's go with later today, I miss you.

Sam: I'm sorry I'm straight, but I'm into women who aren't straight so there's something...?

Sam: Awesome. I'll see you then my love.

Jayne: But when I want to enjoy my fantasy superhero threesomes there's a certain lack, depending on who I choose. Supergirl is a good option...

Jayne: Wait... did we decide later today or?
