History
Miranda Bell was born on Juno, the youngest of two children. She
didn't do very well at school except in music, where she proved to
be very adept at playing the cello, even from a young age. Her home
life was sheltered and happy but was put under strain after she
found out aged 15 that her father had had an affair before they were
born, and came to resent both parents. At 16 she ran away from home
after an argument with her parents and stayed at her boyfriend's
place for a couple of nights, then returned home when it was obvious
she had no means to support herself.For a few years she worked in a
department store, a clothing boutique, but she felt directionless
and without a goal in life. When her older brother Michael took up a
poisition on the JMC vessel Blue Dwarf as a mechanic, she felt she
wanted to stay close to him and applied for a position as a waitress
in one of the ship's bars.
Favourite Sayings
"Please" and "thankyou" "Neato!" "Eww!" (usually used in conjunction
with one of her pet hates, i.e spiders) "Has that got meat in
it?" "Umm... I don't know much about that technical kind of
stuff." "Sorry!" "What does that button do?"
