Characters

Name? Wren

Age? 17

Occupation? Soon-to-be anthropology student

Label yourself: I’m a geek for games (the kind with controllers, not dice), comics, feminist theory, Star Wars, all things Whedon, and Rachel Maddow. I’m also queer and Asian-American, but why do you give a frak?

Name? Maria

Age? 17

Occupation? Soon-to-be biology student

Label yourself: I’m pans, trans, and fantastic! Ha ha.  I couldn’t resist. Oh, but you should keep in mind that I’m fantastic. I’m also a blogger, comic book fan, Whedonite, and I will kick your ass at Halo.

Name? Sam

Age? 17

Occupation? Soon-to-be English student

Label yourself: I am proud to be a femme, fat, Sappho-sympathizing author and artist. I’m also a total literature fiend, and I often serve as a human thesaurus, especially on fanfiction message boards. Really, how hard is it to think of another way to say “buxom”?

Name? Candice

Age? 18

Occupation? Engineering student

Label yourself: Intellectual lover fighter punk-ass crip socialist dyke multiracial slam poet mathlete. I’m wild for non-euclidean geometry, Nomy Lamm, and my beau Wren.

Occupation? Owner of Bluestockings Books

Label yourself: Happily married small business owner and taxpayer. Also, I’m a total ‘mo.

Name? Eric Watanabe

Age? 43

Occupation? History teacher

Label yourself: Gay ex-Mormon, and more importantly, a single parent since Wren and I relocated from Hawaii to Massachusetts. I’ll give you three guesses why!
