*sighs and looks over the papers* All right, first things first, what's your real name? First and last.:

*looks up at him from her bunk* Ransom... you know my name. *sighs a bit but smiles* Ayanna Adams. *rolls her eyes slightly* The orphanage gave it to me. Don't ask how they came up with it 'cause I don't know. *laughs slightly and crosses her legs*

*scribbles it down on the paper* Next.. um, do you have a nickname? And if you do, how'd you get it?:

Ransom, really, do I gotta be here for this? You know everything there is to know about me already. Including this. *gets a stern look from him and shakes her head* Fine. Charity. It's Charity... *tucks a piece of her hair behind her ear* It was a joke because I kinda, well, you know. *shrugs* Slept around a lot and with charity you give stuff out. *sighs and looks away* Happy now?

*nods a bit* When's your birthday and how old are you and all?:

*keeps her eyes averted* April 30th. *glances at him quickly* I'm eighteen. *absentmindedly reaches up and holds the locket hanging arond her neck, which had been a gift from Smudge McDoyal on her most recent birthday* And I think I'm getting a little to old for all this, if you ask me. *smiles some, teasingly*

*smirks a little* Next is looks so.. tell me what you look like, all right? *rolls his eyes* Humor me...:

*looks at him and smiles some* Are you sure you can't just fill these out yourself? I gotta lot of work to do around here you know.. *smiles a little more* *is given another look* All right, fine. *sighs and looks down at herself* I guess I'm about five foot four. Blonde hair.. *takes a lock of it in her hand and looks at it* It's getting long. *drops it and shrugs* Green eyes. That all you need? *smiles* *is somewhat curvy; round hip and a full chest* *has shoulder length hair which is usually kept up in a ponytail and doesn't have any bangs* *wears men clothing, a blue button down shirt and brown pants most of the time* *has scars lining her wrists from an attempted suicide but they seem to be fading some*

Hmm.. *writes down some of that then looks back up* What kind of person are you? What's your personality like and all that?:

*bites her lip a little and plays with the ring on her finger* *looks at him and smiles* I can be nice, I guess. Then again, can't everyone be? *smiles again and shakes her head* I don't know, just put down whatever you think. *eyes him* So long as you aren't the only one that thinks it. *smirks* I don't want everyone to hate me. *is outgoing and speaks her mind when appropriate* *is very sensitive, believing and taking to heart whatever she's told* *tends to get upset easliy* *has fits of depression, usually occuring when she's been drinking*

*raises an eyebrow then grins* If you say so. *teasing, of course* Okay, so do you have any friends around here?:

*bobs her head a bit* Yep. Smudge, Empire, Fi, Angel.. *glances at him* Melanie, too. *was also very close to both Promise Kept and D.J. before they died* *had been best friends with Ransom but the two's relationship has some what fallen apart after he learned of her abortion but they seem to be working together to try and get back the bond they once had*

*nods some and taps the pen on the paper* And, uh, you got anyone special in your life right now? *grins* You know what I mean.:

*grins* Smudge. He's too good for me. *smiles and looks down at her ring* We're getting married. Just... need to save up some more money for it. *can hardly believe she's engaged herself* *never thought this day would come*

So, you got any family? *scratches his head with the end of the pen* Mother, father.. sisters or brothers? Anything like that?:

*shakes her head a little* Nope. Born an orphan. *quick smile* *sighs quietly* They told me they found me out in an alley somewhere... *waves her hand* up in Queens. Hm, they said my mother was just a kid or something and they didn't tell me anything about my father. *shrugs and looks at him, waiting for the next question*

*sighs, looking at the next question* Now you don't gotta say, but it'd be nice if you at least gave me something to write down... how'd you come to live at this fine place? *small smile*:

We ran away from the orphangage when I was about thirteen, then came here. Simple as that. *'we' meaning herself and a former lodger, Ginny, who she had been very close to* *gives Ransom a look, daring him to ask anything further on that subject*

*nods and scans over the application* I think that's it... anything else you wanna add?:

*shakes her head some, biting her lip* Think you covered everything, Ransom. *smiles a bit* *is also, reluctantly, adopting Mellie with Smudge so he can have her as a daughter* *has yet to be fully over her drug problem as well*
