Sparrow has surrounded herself with books, gel pens, and a murder board. It must be Monday because she's wearing grey — then again her hair is mostly grey now, so perhaps it's always Monday? She's got green eyes, European ancestry, and a collection of coffee mugs with broken handles which have been upcycled into pen cups.
