I'm getting tired & I need someone to rely on

Oh simple thing, where have you gone? Jaden definitely sticks out, even during the times he would rather fade into the shadows. His blue hair -- which is quite natural, mind you -- might be the first thing you spot in a crowd, and it has definitely given his teachers something to complain about already. Soft, effeminate features are enough to make anyone double take, especially if they catch him after a shoot, still wearing the women's clothing he was modeling moments before. If his natural beauty does not catch your eye, then maybe it will be how he expertly dodges anyone on the street, regardless of their gender.

Jaden is a sweetheart, whether you bother to get to know him or not. He meets strangers with a smile and extends a hand to those in need. He can become cold and emotionally detached should the situation stress him out, a means of protecting himself from being taken advantage of or accidentally changing forms. Watch out, though, because he's too smart for his own good. He gets bored easily, and he is usually fiddling with something. Otherwise, he might just leave the conversation entirely if he finds a better distraction.

POSSIBLE IDEAS

Jaden is absolutely open for anything and everything, so feel free to pitch any idea you may have! There are a few small ideas I have, and anyone in the Bennett family will definitely need to hit him up to see how their relationship may have or could develop.

OMG I KNOW YOU | Jaden has been modeling since he was fourteen, and moving to Japan has not stopped his career. It would be neat if someone recognized him and was maybe a fan? Or flat out hates him for completely confusing them since they thought he was a woman. lol. Even better, if someone wants to make the stereotypical obsessive stalker fan. Please make Jaden uncomfortable.

THE NEW KID | Jaden was tutored his whole life and briefly did online schooling. Upon coming to Japan, he decided he wanted the high school experience while he could still have it. Of course, his impression of high school is the western variety based on movies and television, and he did not watch enough anime or dramas to know what he was getting himself into. So! Bullies and new friends alike are welcome!

GAME ON | Jaden plays countless video games when he is home or even on the go (he has quite the collection of mobile games to keep him preoccupied before shoots and between classes). I'd imagine he has an MMO or online co-op game that he plays more than anything else, and it would be neat-o if there's some super cliche offline meetup that he runs into an online friend / party member at. I dunno, I like cliches. lol.

FAN OUT | He's going to need at least one slip up that leads to a very miffed peacock roaming Kaibara. Who wants to bear witness?

BENNETT, sydney x BENNETT, jaden

Let see... I'd say because they are family and with her being the head and all they'd have to know each other pretty well. I'd almost venture that they'd be close since unlike with the Sohma's head Akito, Sydney's more relaxed about things. Often I can kinda see her kind of being a bit of a mother hen even though she is younger than he is. And being a strong supporter of his career as well and was ecstatic when he wanted to come to Japan as well. As for other ideas I'm not sure? It's entirely up to you as far as the extent of their relationship goes.

Oh he'll show you mother hen-ing! With how Jaden is, he'd probably be very off put by her mothering, only to turn around and do the same thing to either her or someone else at a different time. He definitely only puts up with it because she's the Lion, but he'll grumble the whole time.

Jaden probably didn't get too close to the other Bennetts despite moving in with them almost three years ago. Work keeps him busy, and he often uses his studies (or games) as an excuse to hide in his room when he's home. Sydney was probably stubborn enough to make him get to know her back then. Leos and Aquarians are very compatible, too, so they probably became or will become great friends. I can also see Jaden giving Sydney advice when she needs it, mostly due to the fact that his intelligence and perception makes him a great outside opinion to have.

So, in Jaden's history, I have it that he was first officially introduced to the rest of the Bennetts and the other western zodiacs of the time when he was about eleven. There, someone tried to touch him for whatever reason, and Jaden hid behind his father even though that person would not have changed him. Would you mind that being Sydney? She would have been about nine at the time, and it could have been as simple of a reason as "hey play with me!"

BENNETT, jaden && BENNETT, mireille
Cousinsssssss. So, I honestly dont know how they'll get along. I initially planned on Miri being a model until I realized that Jaden was already one xD So she's a dance instructor because the curse keeps her from being a professional ballerina. She's a super family oriented sort and she just wants to low-key protect all of her family. Like, she'd straight up ruin someone's life for him if she had to. So i imagine they're probably on okay terms? But i thought we could figure out their relationship to each other? Older sister figure, friends, passing acquaintances due to familial connections? I am up for anything!

BENNETT, jaden && QUINN.
I don't have an actual idea here but I would love to get Tohru meeting the cursed from the Bennett family and maybe finding out about them somehow.

[BENNETT, jaden]

BENNETT, jaden && BENNETT, mireille
So, uh, Mireille's going to give him lessons, right? He's always looking for something new to try, especially something as hard and complex as dance and ballet. Plus it would help with his modeling poses, but that's just an added plus. It would also give them something to bond over!

Birds of a feather flock together, after all.

A sister figure is probably something he actually needs. He was always the only child growing, so it's not something he's used to. Plus, it could probably help ease him out of his bitter feelings toward the younger sibling he never got to meet and was pretty much abandoned for. Maybe. There's probably going to be a point when he can't bottle up his problems anymore and needs someone to vent to over a shopping spree or spa day.

BENNETT, jaden && QUINN.
I am all for these two meeting and seeing how things play out!

So of course I'm obligated to do family plots. So these two almost seem like total opposites, from their appearance to certain aspects of their personality, and certainly their upbringing. Still, I don't see why this has to put a wedge in between them, but it could probably make for the occasional awkward moment, especially when Connor is politely attentive and is more prone to sticking through a conversation no matter how painful it could be and Jaden just wanders off as soon as he's bored lol

[BENNETT, jaden]

BENNETT, jaden && @connor
Well, you aren't obligated for family plots, but Jaden needs at least one interaction where he's trying to get Connor to join him for a photoshoot so he doesn't have to put up with [insert random male model here]. you can't just give the wolf a good lookin' fc and not expect jaden to try at least ten times.

They're probably on relatively friendly terms regardless, especially since Jaden hangs around Sydney every so often when he's not swamped with work or video games. Though, on Jaden's wandering off when bored thing, I can see Connor trying to have a serious conversation with Jaden while walking together, only to have the peacock completely disappear from his side while he's talking. I'm sorry for any frustration Jaden will cause Connor.

[Deleted]

BENNETT, jaden

Yeah, maybe obligation is the wrong word. I'd be wasting an opportunity not plotting with all the family in some capacity, especially with Connor being such a family oriented person. That said, Con will probably be pretty confused about being dragged along for a photoshoot. I can't guarantee he'd be a great model attitude wise but I'm sure he'd be willing to help out if Jaden asked, just cause he has a hard time saying no to family.

But yeah, this sounds like it'll be fun! I'm excited to see how these two may develop over time~ :3
