Reputation: “That nice brown girl from down the street” or “That loud Indian girl who always comes ‘round”
Backstory: Her parents immigrated from Punjab, India before she was born, they moved into the same house they still live in years later and she’s born a year after they move there. Her dad owns the sweetshop that’s in the train station and her mom uses the house as her hair salon. A lot of women come to her, even some men who are willing to trust a woman with their hair. She’s brought up believing she owes her parents everything, that she needs to be successful for them and not for herself. So for a long time she’s just school school school, even as a little kid. She’s known Finn her whole life because Polly is a regular customer since before she was even born and sometimes brought him with her when he had no one else to watch him. They’re friends but her parents don’t like her hanging out with boys, so it’s more of a during and right after school thing until her parents finally give her an ounce of freedom. She’s set to go to uni and do the whole ride and that’s what she wants to do, but she still wants to have fun while getting there. So like if she’s “going to the library” she might actually be going to the library…but also to sit with Finn by a canal and just hangout. She’s never really looking for a boyfriend because she always just assumes her parents will find her someone from India because that’s the threat her dad uses all the time, so when she starts realizing she actually starts liking Finn she suppresses the fuck out of those emotions. But then she starts realizing she likes Isaiah too and she thinks her whole world is going to shit because Finn was already a bad idea and now Isaiah would be worse. She never does jobs for the Peaky Blinders but if she’s in the betting shop or in the Garrison she’ll correct some math if she’s just looking over someone’s shoulder, Tommy asks her constantly to just do their books for them but she always says she’s too busy, that’s about it.
Face Claim: Neelam Gill (not like perfect but pretty close!)
