Hello, I have been asked by a friend to help a Miss Lucy Barker. He says we are from around the same time and I can help you adjust to the ways of this place.

I am Lucy Barker, although I've told there's another here. I should be terribly grateful for assistance, even if I am not the person you seek.

Do you know Quatre?

I'll still help you, of course, even if you are the other one.

[barbers_wife]

Mister Winner? Yes, I do know him, and a kinder gentleman I could not hope to meet.

[booksandbeasts]

Then I believe you are the same one.

I'm Belle.

[barbers_wife]

I'm delighted to meet you, Miss Belle, and delighted moreso that you are from the same time as I.

Well, Quatre said I was probably a few decades before you. What time are you from? And what country?

[barbers_wife]

A few decades? Close enough so as to make little difference, I should think.

I'm from England, and more specifically, from London. The year was 1853, when I was brought here.

[OoC: The year is merely a guess based on what I've heard/read about Sweeney Todd.]

Quite a few. The turn of the century is a while aways, but I have heard most of the dramatic changes were around the 1900s. From what I have read of the 1800s it wasn't too different from the 1700s.
