Profile

It was a dark and stormy night when the English major trudged down the infinite stairwell towards the door. Shouldering her heavy pack, laden with classics, poetry, and creative writing textbooks, she stopped abruptly and turned to face the bulletin board on the second floor. WANTED, it said. SOMEONE WHO SPEAKS IN TONGUES.

Well, she thought. I can do that. She tore a strip of paper from the bottom of the advertisement.

Later, the phone rang once, twice, in a room far across the city. Then, a voice, soft as the swing of hair across a bare shoulder.

"Are you a speaker of tongues?"

"I'm working on it." She said honestly.

"Well?"

"Japanese, comprehensibly. I can understand Spanish and German and some Latin. I'm very fluent in English."

"Come back when you know French and Russian."

"Well, fine." She hung the phone up with a flounce and sat down at her computer. It had been a long shot, anyway.

The phone rang. She looked at it suspiciously.

"I forgot to ask - are you the person who wrote that Jabberwocky noir?"

"Yes..."

"You're hired."

And so it began.
