Jonatha

From Kokorodatabase

Revision as of 15:43, 23 April 2008

Jonatha is on of the newest additions to the Kokoro world; a disaffected British teenager who looks like she has no reason for staying in Japan as long as she has. And yet, she stays- if not just for free pastries.

History

Before Kokoro

Jonatha grew up in Birmingham, England, so yes, she's a Brummie. Her mother was a psychic, and before she was born, she'd predicted that it'd be a boy and named him Jonathan; however, it ended up being a girl, hence the name was shortened to Jonatha. Her family was a bit on the poor side, with her mom being a psychic, therefore not earning too much and her dad a blue-collar worker. In primary school, it was found that she had inherited some of her mother's psychic abilities; however, she was teased about them so much that she ended up shunning them out of her mind. She was put in a Japanese immersion program in primary school and stayed in it until she was 14, when she went to Japan on a study abroad trip. She never came back.

Kokoro Days

Jonatha had been switching host families every six months or so until she was sixteen, when she was suddenly kicked out of her exchange family's home and had no where to stay. That was when she found the cafe; Elizabeth graciously let her stay at the cafe- more specifically, on the living room couch- until she could find a place to stay. However, even transferring from the awful school she was at to a much better one didn't yield any results on the home front (pun intended). Then she met Himeno, who had an apartment and was willing to share. She got a job and is splitting the rent with her. However, her constant attempts to get Himeno back to school without knowing her story are definitely grating on Himeno's nerves.

When Gamu was cleaning out the lab one day, Jonatha happened to be here. And, well, Gamu turned in to a plushie. Out of panic, Jonatha poured a bunch of chemicals on her. When she got turned back in to a human, Gamu had sustained severe burns, and Jonatha organized taking her to the hospital, as well as being one of the first people to start visiting her. After that, they started forming a close friendship, which was unusual for both of them.

Jonatha was the first (and currently only) person to officially know Cannoli was in love with Gamu. Amusingly enough, at that point she'd known Cannoli the least well out of everybody and attributed it to her psychic abilities slowly coming back.

Kokoro Draft Future

Personality

Jonatha is definitely someone of contradictions. She guards her emotions, but is open about her past. She acts like she doesn't care about school, when really it's the only thing keeping her in Japan. She adopts a devil-may-care attitude about everything going on around her, but she's stubborn and won't give up if there's something she wants to know. Her stubborness is an unfortunate part of her; it's the cause of her almost finding out about the magical community a few times, and part of the reason she's so adamant about Himeno going to school.

As of late, she's sort of regretting the fact that she doesn't have access to her psychic abilities anymore. She doesn't share this fact with very many people, but she's constantly trying to figure out how to get them back.
