Ok so since you've asked, I think our pretty alpha Jay is a complex charecter:
1st he is always the moral compass both in Niki and Hee's stories so I know his love story is very "right". However in both fics Jay is the ultimate partner but he is never chosen so I think it can make him insecure like "where is my happy ending?" "Why not me?" Vibes.
2nd- the fact that he smells like citrus is so perfect for his real life personality- bold, unwavering and consistent. Like if you peel an orange the entire room will smell like citrus for the whole day - that's our Jay.
And 3rd - I think the fact that his parents are fated mates makes him want to experience this type of love too. His upbringing is forcing him to be romantic and believe in love so he is very honerable and open. But again, this might add to the pressure to find his mate already.
To sum it up - a very romantic yet frustrated Jay who wants to love and be loved already but can't find her. He is about to give up on love, maybe already did but then - reader shows up and shakes his world. "Oh you're a lemon? Then I'm flaming hot honey"
you caught all the seeds i planted for his arc!! yayyy!
1. “why not me” vibes ESPECIALLY when people keep joking “ah jay you’re too good i need to keep my gf away from you” and he’s like?? ok first of all i don’t want your gf and second of all if i was that good then where is my mate?? why am i the punching bag ☹️☹️☹️
2. YES!! jay’s aura is insane you can’t just ignore him his presence is so palpable that heads turned everywhere he goes (this is canon)
3. YUP YUP YUPPPP!! having true mates as parents definitely helps shape him as a gentleman that he is now BUT IT ALSO SETS A STANDARD FOR HIM like i hv to hv my happy ending too and it might result in him being quite destructive to himself/controlling beyond reason (oops!)
i am sooo excited for you to meet his omega! the teaser will be dropped once mark me yours ends <3
