He doesn't buy albums very often, or collect them, he doesn't really even listen to the radio very often (he likes silence), but he has all three of hers. | + | * 1. Jacob's favorite artist is Tori Amos. He doesn't buy albums very often, or collect them, he doesn't really even listen to the radio very often (he likes silence), but he has all three of hers. |
| - | * 2. He's pretty damn oblivious to the fact that he's really pretty. In fact, he is also completely oblivious to people flirting with him, or hitting on him, to the point that he won't get it unless it involves being felt up. (he would also likely turn bright red, and try to run away after that). | + | * 2. He's pretty damn oblivious to the fact that he's really pretty.

If someone makes him order food, he'll take it home to eat later. |
| - | * 6. The first thing he remembers clearly is sitting quietly in the shoe department at some department store, waiting for his family to come back and get him. This was not the first of many such incidents: nor was it the last. | + | * 5. Jacob has written a good number of short stories and had them published under a pseudonym. He's planning on having his novel published under that pen name, too. Persephone Altair is the pen name he uses. |
| - | * 7. Jacob never feels comfortable in shorts or short-sleeved shirts (which is why he hates gym class): he feels immodest with his arms or legs bare. This comes because he spent too much time as a young child quietly in the same room listening to his mother or father lecture one of his older sisters on "modesty" and "propriety" and though the lectures weren't meant for him, it stuck. Strangely, the only time he doesn't think about it is when he's swimming: he's perfectly comfortable in a swim suit, though *only* in the water. | + | * 6.

This was not the first of many such incidents: nor was it the last. |
| - | * 8. The written word is Jacob's outlet for all the tangled feelings he will never express to anyone else. But sometimes, when not even writing is enough, he'll lock his door and turn out the lights and claw at his arms. It feels good, and the marks fade. Until the next time. | + | * 7.

| - | * 13. Jacob is in denial about the fact he's gay. He would almost rather be completely asexual then admit to himself that he's gay. It's not that he's homophobic-he's not-it's because it would be the ultimate in letting down his parents, and if he admits this to himself, then he has no chance at all of ever being anything but a disappointment to them. | + | * 11. Jacob has a bottle of sleeping pills he's never opened, stashed away in his closet. While he tends to like Hod better then the waking world, he hasn't yet used the medication to try to sleep longer. (yet). |
| - | * 14. He's innocent enough not to understand why being helpless tends to leave him breathless for other reasons then simply exhaustion, but it frightens him.

He feels guilty every time Daniel, or anyone else, worries about him. |
| - | * 15. Jacob has fallen asleep in the graveyard before, usually after a long session of talking to the ghosts there or even allowing them to possess him for brief periods.
