“i go to loud places in search for someone to be quiet with.”
〔 CHOI SOOBIN, 20, CISMALE, AUDIOKINESIS 〕╰ JINSOO HWAN just came over half - blood hill . you know , the child of ATHENA who was claimed two years ago ? i’ve heard chiron say that he is PERCEPTIVE & SINCERE , but if you ask the aphrodite kids , they’d say they’re TIMID & PESSIMISTIC . i’d say they remind me of coffee from the cafe, filled just to the brim with creamer, stargazing alone, the scratch of pencil against paper, numb fingers hidden in fuzzy, oversized sweaters, noise cancelling earphones , especially since they’re NEUTRAL .

HI! I’M MIKI AND THIS IS M’BOI (tips my fedora) JINSOO! he’s quiet, a wee bit soft, and dry as fuck, and i apologize in advance for his Dryness but like this post for plots, mayhaps?
basics .
name : jinsoo hwan
nicknames : jin, soo, jinnie
birth date : 12th of january
gender : cismale
pronouns : he/his
romantic orientation/sexual orientation : panromantic, pansexual
ethnicity : korean
nationality : american
hometown : springfield, illinois
demigod abilities : audiokinesis
cabin number & godly parent : cabin number # 6, son of athena
how did their godly parent meet their mortal parent? : his father, jaesung, was a rather endearing museum curator and athena had been charmed by his wit and extensive knowledge on history. long story short, jinsoo had been a bundle of surprise, literally just handed over to his father by athena.
muse appearance .
faceclaim : choi soobin (TXT)
height : 189 cm ; 6′2
hair colour : dark brown
eye colour : dark brown
dominant hand : he is ambidextrous and is able to write with both hands, but he uses his right hand in combat!
distinguishing features : despite being a demigod, he has shit vision, so he has to wear glasses 24/7. he’s too afraid of contacts... he’s a MESS without his glasses! on the other hand, his other senses are heightened.
dress style : jinsoo prefers comfort over style. he’s very lanky, almost like a stick, so he tends to wear baggy clothes to hide his lean body. oversized hoodies, fuzzy sweaters, huge band shirts, baggy pants...
camp - related .
go - to weapon : he’s a simple man, he has a trusty dagger that he considers as his third arm, if that makes any sense. he isn’t the type to dabble in different weapons, despite his abilities, and he sticks to what he’s most comfortable with. stepping out of one’s comfort zone? don’t know her.
ambrosia : taro milk tea!
favourite camp location : aside from the athena cabin, he enjoys going to the pegasus stables. late at night, he heads to the lake. ( he doesn’t go there in the morning because the naiads intimidate him rip )
their opinion of their godly parent : he is... indifferent. he doesn’t resent her, nor does he admire her, although he was a little confused as to why she hadn’t claimed him faster than he initially assumed she would’ve.
age they were claimed : jinsoo was claimed as soon as he turned eighteen.
how they were claimed : it was nothing to write home about, his father had dropped hints about it before he’d been whisked away to camp half-blood, but he did spend two years cramped in the hermes cabin.
stance on the new cabins : neutral.
reason for their stance : again, he is indifferent. but that’s because he doesn’t want to get in unnecessary conflicts. ask him about it, and he’ll just give you a shrug. deep, deep down, he’s for it.
their opinion on lyssa pentelute : take a shot every time i type ‘indifferent’! no, just kidding, he does think she’s very confident and outspoken — very different from himself.
quests : yes, details tba. ( hmu for a quest buddy connection! )
personality .
positive traits : his father nourished a soft side within him that continued to grow as jinsoo got older. a side that made bad jokes, a side that was sentimental, a side that loved sweet things, and a side that fiercely cared for those close to him. he’s very soft spoken, a great listener, and a loyal friend once you somewhat manage to crack his introverted self and get to know him.
negative traits : occasionally a pushover, jinsoo has been known to set aside his morals and personal opinions in lieu of the whims and pleasures of his friends. one of his greatest downfalls lies in his desire to be liked, and he has a tendency to sacrifice many of his own opinions in exchange for the acceptance of his peers. he understands that this is wrong, but finds it difficult to question those that he cares about due to the fact that, underneath everything, he is still afraid that they might one day realize that they could do much better than him and leave him for someone else. it sounds foolish, as most things often do inside one’s head, but jinsoo finds it very difficult to shake this fear.
mbti : intp
alignment : true neutral
hogwarts house : ravenclaw ( is anybody surprised? )
kinsey scale : 5 - predominantly homosexual, only incidentally heterosexual
archetype : both persona and self archetype is ‘the innocent child’ — naive but a breath of new life and fresh ideas ; matches the archetype of the wise old man.
what candle scent are they : cinnamon spiced vanilla ; you're an old soul. you ooze warmth and nostalgia, wrapping others in your embrace and leaving a reminiscent smile behind.
goals & desires : to live a long, satisfying life.
fears : does being buried alive count as a fear?
hobbies : playing the ukelele, answering sudoku puzzles, playing chess, reading. they aren’t exceedingly unique or creative, but it has remained a constant in his life for as long as he can remember — reading, in particular. his father would read to him, and the words would be the only thing that could get him to fall asleep.
habits : bounces his leg a lot when he’s anxious, excessively polite to strangers, gets too emotionally attached, wears his heart on his sleeve
misc . (tba)
- jinsoo’s favorite time of day is dawn. watching the sun rise is a quiet, peaceful time. he finds himself enjoying them more often, sitting by the lake as the dawn breaks outside. his favorite season has always been fall, the weather cool enough that it’s no longer uncomfortable to wear long sleeves and sweaters. it’s a season that would eventually grow to remind him of change, new beginnings, and a time when he would return to camp each year and reunite with his friends.
- his hobby of reading shifted into a passion and an outlet for the questions that he had about the world and everything that lay outside of his window. in books, he could be whoever he wanted to be; yesterday he was a pirate looking for buried treasure, today he’s in a jungle on an island with the Wild Things. this hobby has remained with him throughout his time at school, shifting from an escape to something that he could use to find the answers for all of the questions he had about the greek world and the more recently, the growing war around him. now when he finds himself overwhelmed, he finds comfort in sourcing an old text and taking notes. he isn’t picky; he’ll read anything from epic fantasies to nonfiction books and old biographies.
- he LOVES coffee! that’s it that’s the headcanon. if you find him roaming around camp at 5 in the morning, he’s most likely buzzing from caffeine.
wanted connections. (more tba brain Tired... also if any of these interest you, hmu! some are more detailed than others but all of them are open to modifications :) we can develop them however we want... feel free 2 choose multiple plots..,.,. GO CRAZY)
— THE MOM FRIEND. - sometimes, he forgets to take care of himself and this person!!!! looks out for him and reminds him to eat!
— BFF. - the ride or die. the one person jinsoo would literally kill for. he loves them and considers them as his family. jinsoo would fight tooth and nail for them!
— THE QUEST SQUAD - i really love the idea of jinsoo having three close friends who he goes on quests with!
— THE CONFIDANT. - the person he could say he truly trusts the most; while jinsoo finds it extremely hard to open up to people, preferring to be the confidant than to confide in his friends. they’re the first person he runs to when he’s upset or stressed.
— EXES. - jinsoo has been in camp for six years, so he would’ve been in a relationship or two! they could be on good terms or bad terms………GIVE ‘EM TO ME!
— ROMANCE. - i’m a hoe for spicy plots! i don’t really want to give out anything specific, but some suggestions aaaare: a crush (requited or unrequited), skinny love, a love-hate relationship…..
