Hank Settor Well, my family is from upstate, but I've always wanted to live in Athena City, where the artists and the action is. Pretty well-off, a nurse and a lawyer with two kids. Just me and my older sister, she's in California working for Mallmart corporate. I played a lot of sports in middle school, settled on hockey and baseball in high school. Played hockey two years in college, then my jaw got shattered and I focused on my anthropology degree. Which was interesting but I'm not really planning on using it for anything. Finished up in five years, and moved strait to the city. Worked for the bike shop on Lincoln for a year and a half, then at Antler Brewery on 15th near Atlantic. But my passion right now is baking artisanal breads for Follman's - I see a lot of politicians and celebrities on the days when I work up front, but they're all so fake. Still, I get a great deal on nice cheeses and cured meats, plus the wine shop across the street trades employee discounts with us. I get by pretty well, particularly when I get a weekend off and sell prints and things at the artists' market. Though of course there's always the bank of Mom and Dad if things were to get really rough. I mostly ride my bike around town, which both is way more practical in this city and very environmentally conscious. I've actually got three bikes: a fixie cruiser, a commuting roadie, and a fat bike for snowy days. Try to get out and take pictures on my days off, only a dabbler there. Currently living with the two gay bartenders from Antler in a 5th floor apartment on 19th, They really care about the music scene, and I met a lot of young musicians through the Antler and them. The people in this area are just so much more vibrant and real; there's a 2nd generation Filipino family below us and an actual immigrant South African couple across the hall. I'm straight, since you're now wondering, but no girlfriend at the moment. I tend to get a lot of dates, though. I'm only 27, and it's a big city full of adventure. When the plane hit? I was at work that morning, we turned the radio to the local news and gave out a bunch of free sandwiches. Rode my bike home and the streets were absolutely dead, which anyone can tell you is pretty weird for Athena City. The second plane ended up in the ocean. Where else? It's just been too soon for investigators to figure out exactly where and most people are more interested in the bridge or the Sekhemet message. To satisfy your heart's deepest desire, would you sacrifice another living human being? I guess probably. Not sure what the 'deepest desire' is yet. And only if the person was a total rear end in a top hat. quote:+4 Fit as hell - Get it? Because the demons? But seriously, I got scouted for AAA, maybe even pro, but my parents insisted on college, and then the big hit ended that. Speleothing fucked around with this message at 01:51 on Mar 24, 2016 |

I think I'm done editing for now. I've got to go out and make some artisinal soups for dinner and will answer any questions in a slightly half-hearted and condescending manner later tonight.

He's got an instagram, naturally. Uses a $1000 pentax dslr and has 3 lenses for it. But he's also got access to a darkroom that this girl Jennifer made from a walk-in closet and her medium-format camera, though she does all the actual developing work and he just helps. Follman's Bakery was founded by Isaac Follman in the 30s, and run by his family for 40 years. But Jerry Voss & his wife (then-girlfirend) Irene bought 50% during the early 80s when Athena city was having huge crime problems and nobody wanted to come to the neighborhood. He really turned it around from a run-of-the-mill bread and pastry shop with a neat art-deco look into a destination for food lovers and the spot for gourmet sandwiches and artisan breads. Bob Follman (a lawyer) mostly stays out of the way and lets the checks come in, but his teenage son wants to learn the family business.

I'll take things as they come. Not like I've left the bar yet.

What are you talking about? Hank [+2] gets along with everybody. Hipsters are nothing if not social chameleons.
