| - | *12. Jacob was not aware that he had a bondage or submission kink before he was taken to Arcadia: he still isn't quite aware of it, except in terms of being ''fluttery'' when helpless, but the worst part of his Durance, was very easily the fact that despite the fact he was utterly, absolutely terrified, his Keeper figured it out and manipulated it.

| - | *21. Jacob met Angelo-or Angela, depending on his mood-at a book club that was, ironically, reading one of his books that he'd gotten published just before he disappeared.

| - | *22. He hasn't noticed that Angelo has been hitting on him very subtly, not laying it on thick at all. He's happily oblivious to this.
