Nicknames:
Clothing Style:Jake's style can best be described as comfortable casual... jeans, t-shirts, button-downs, and sweaters. Jake prefers dark, neutral, or muted colors... he always wears a silver cross necklace that his mother gave him years ago. He also actually happens to like occasions that call for getting dressed up, though he also feels that there's no substitute for comfortable. He likes to look decent but doesn't spend a lot of time perfecting himself in front of the mirror. In fact, when he is feeling particularly down he can go quite some time without bothering to shave or to mess with keeping his hair looking neat... however don't mistake indifference about his appearance for filth. Jake showers twice a day whenever he is able.

In Depth Personality: Jake is loyal to a fault. He loves his friends and family and will do just about anything to make them happy. He likes to surround himself with people that he cares about and really only likes to be alone when he's in a foul mood. He is generous and kind, and very flirtatious. He doesn't like to disappoint people and sometimes finds himself making more promises than he can handle, leaving himself in stressful situations. He does have a bit of a temper, especially when backed into a corner. He doesn't go off often, but when he does, it isn't pretty.
Jake prides himself on having impeccable manners. He was raised by parents who tried their best to mold him into a prominent member of society. He loves women, but not to a point where he's promiscuous. Jake will talk the talk but he prefers a meaningful, loving relationship to sleeping around. He does greatly respect women and tends to put women on a pedestal and loves to make them feel good about themselves. Often this means tossing a compliment or flirtation their way, which has, in the past, been mistaken for a more deep-rooted interest and gotten him into a bit of trouble. If he catches a girl being mistreated, he's usually the first to jump to her aid.

Okay, including here a scene written by myself and Declan's scribe on another forum a few years ago, just because it amused me so much and still does:p
Me: Jake broke out into a grin. Either Declan wasn't with Elise anymore, or... No, there was no other explanation. Declan wasn't with Elise anymore. He had been too devoted to her to be so openly flirtatious, even if it WAS behind-the-scenes flirtation. He never had been one to so openly check out women... always had eyes for her. Jake did wonder briefly if he had started dating anyone since, but going on his other logic, figured he was likely single. Jake figured he was probably single as well. Femi had surely moved on, and she had every right to have done so. He only hoped she would forgive him and that he could earn her trust again. He had worked so hard for it in the first place.
He moved over to the railing and peered over it down at the people below, looking around, for the first time, at several of his housemates. Declan was right... it wasn't a bad place for checking out the ladies. "Man, did we ever luck out or what?" he asked, looking over at Declan. "Dude, quick, give me your tags. We'll drop 'em and see if we can flag one down to come pick 'em up." Already Jake could feel his mood improving.
Declan: He glanced back down. So many cuties down there really, but which should they target. He also wondered if Jake would really do it. He slipped the tags off his neck and held them out at him. He started wiggling his finger causing them to sway back and forth,"OK long as I get these back. Oh I wonder how many points we should assign. I mean what if they drop and no one sees them, that's not worth anyting. I say 100 points if you land them in some cleavage."
He started laughing a bit harder. This was odd for him, but he was always comfortable hanging with jake. they had a good friendship and he was glad to see him back. He eyed the tags and then Jake. Declan was hoping to goad him into trying least once for some cleavage. Just one drop that would be a good story for a while,"So Daron, are ya up for it. We are talking 100 points here."
Me: "Dude, I am always up for it," he grinned, snatching the chain from Declan. He leaned over the rail again, peering down below at the clusters of people. Jake glanced back at Declan, who looked a bit uneasy, and he figured that maybe his break-up with Elise might not have been too long ago. He just needed to help his friend loosen up. Declan needed him, and he sure as hell needed Declan.
"I can do 100 points," he smirked, turning his attention back to the students below. "Man what if I miss and drop em down a guy's shirt? I will NOT retrieve them for you." He was practically laughing now, imagining the horrified look on Declan's face if that were to happen. He watched students mingle about, huddle in groups, and walk back and forth across the common room floor. Finally when one girl was about to pass right beneath him, he held his hand out over the rail, the dog tags swaying back and forth as they dangled from the silver chain. Jake bit his lip, squinting slightly as he aimed, attempting to time it just right... and opened his hand, letting them fall towards the girl below.
"Come onnnn.... 100 points... 100 points..." he muttered as he watched them drop.
Declan: Declan watched as his friend snagged the chain. He was really going to do it, Declan thought. No way Jake would not accept a challenge. He started snickering at the whole idea. He wondered which chic it might be. Declan scooted over near the edge next to Jake. He wacthed as the chain swayed slowly. Jake was aiming for a girl, he hoped.
"Dude make sure it gets least near a girl. I'm not going after them if it slips down a guy's shirt. Just have them toss 'em back up or sopmething. Dude this has potential for being extremely funny and a tad dangerous," Declan watched as Jake's hand stoped moving and the chain slipped from his fingers. The chain and tags went down towards the floor.
Random Chick: Having gotten her wand and supplies, Caterina was quick to move her things into the college. Anything to get away fro the bed and breakfast that was to country for the girl. She liked cozy but there were no servants any bellhops and that was just wrong.
The door to the common room was pushed open as a series of black with oriental dragons suitcases came floating in. Letting them carefully drop back down to the floor she looked around to see who would help her get them to her room. Sure she could use magic to get them there but what good was that if she couldn’t meet some people?
Looking around she didn’t notice anyone so she headed for the stairs but just as she did something feel down her shirt that had a rather low cut v neckline. Her head dropped as she looked down her dress’s top. There resting in her cleavage was something silver and clearly metal from the cool temperature it was putting forth against her pale olive skin. Reaching down she pulled it from it’s ‘home’ as she looked up to spy two young men up near the second floor railing.
Smiling she held them up so they could see the tags. “One of you boys lose something?” she asked with her right eyebrow raised up into a curious yet some how mischievous expression.
Me: Jake's eyebrows rose the moment the tags landed, and he had to stop himself from cheering himself for his oh-so-awesome aim. He did glance over at Declan and flash him a broad grin before peering over the railing at the pretty brunette below. "Sorry 'bout that," he called down to her, and then looked over at his best friend, making sure to continue speaking loud enough for her to hear him. "Dude, I told you that's not the way to pick up chicks!"
Looking back down at her, he gave a dramatic sigh, and shook his head. "You'll have to pardon my caveman friend. No manners," he said with a wink. Well, now that he got his hundred point score, might as well take it another step and see if he could get her to talk to them. "Don't suppose you'd mind bringing those up?" he smiled at her.
