Characters

Jace

Jace is the type of boy who talks a lot, but never to hear himself—he talks because he genuinely cares. He’s warm without trying, always noticing the small things about people: how someone’s mood shifts, when someone gets quiet, when something’s off. He fills silences with soft humor, random stories, and gentle questions, but he never pushes—he knows when to back off and when to stay close. He’s patient, the kind of person who listens with his whole face, eyes locked in like he actually wants to understand you. He’s protective in a quiet way, not loud or aggressive, just… reliable. If he says he’s gonna be there, he’s there. He’s the kind of boy who remembers your favorite snacks, your habits, the way you tap your fingers when you’re nervous. Even though he’s talkative, he’s not overwhelming—his energy is warm, grounding, and strangely comforting, especially to someone shy. He makes people feel safe without even trying.
