Jai Leo

Jai's father was the best friend and right-hand man of Marek's father, roles the two sons have also taken on. Jai's mother runs a restaurant, a small little place that doesn't look like it gets enough business to turn a profit, but it does surprisingly well for itself. Jai is a year older than Marek and speaks English, Lao, and passable French. Jai's never met a social media platform he couldn't master and has a small but growing following that enjoys his updates about the latest hacks and glitches that can be exploited on the different platforms he's mastered. Jai started a fan page for Ricochet as a joke, but it's developed such a large and passionate fan base, that he manages the group full time now and has found ways to start monetizing it. Marek is vaguely uncomfortable with this but tolerates it and Jai's teasing about the whole situation with good humor.

1. Personal History:

- Jai was born in San Padua to parents who immigrated from Laos just a year before his birth. He grew up straddling two worlds: the traditional Lao culture at home and the American lifestyle outside.

- As a child, he often felt caught between his parents' expectations and his desire to fit in with his peers. This led to a period of rebellion in his early teens, where he dyed his hair bright colors and got into trouble for hacking his school's grading system.

- His relationship with his parents improved in his mid teens when his parents' restaurant was struggling, and he overheard them discussing whether to close it. Determined to help, Jai used his budding tech skills to create a website and social media presence for the restaurant. The success of this venture not only saved the family business but also cemented Jai's path in life.

2. Personality Traits:

- Jai has a dry, sardonic wit. He often makes deadpan jokes that catch people off guard.

- He's quick with a quip, especially in tense situations.

- His humor is often self-deprecating, poking fun at his "model minority" status or his role as the "tech guy."

- He has a habit of twirling a pen or stylus between his fingers when he's thinking deeply.

- Jai is fiercely loyal to his friends and family but can be slow to trust outsiders.

- He's a night owl, often staying up late coding or managing his online presence.

3. Interests and Hobbies:

- Beyond his obvious tech interests, Jai is a secret poetry enthusiast. He writes haiku about modern life and technology, finding beauty in the intersection of nature and the digital world. He's never shared this hobby with anyone, feeling it clashes with his tech-bro image.

- He's also unexpectedly good at origami, a skill he picked up to help manage stress and anxiety.

- Jai enjoys urban exploration, often dragging Marek and Cora along to abandoned buildings or hidden city spots.

4. Personal Struggles:

- Jai struggles with impostor syndrome, often feeling like he's not good enough despite his successes.

- Jai struggles with the weight of expectations. His father, once a respected figure in the criminal world, expects Jai to follow in his footsteps and support Marek as he supported Marek's father. While Jai loves his friend, he sometimes resents this predetermined path.

- Jai has occasional bouts of insomnia, which he manages with meditation techniques learned from his grandmother.

5. Romamtic Relationships:

- Jai has a complicated on-again, off-again relationship with a woman named Lian, who works as a cybersecurity expert (unaware of Jai's criminal activities).

- He mentors a group of at-risk youth, teaching them coding and web design as a way to keep them off the streets.

6. Future Aspirations:

- Jai dreams of starting a legitimate tech company that could revolutionize online privacy and security.

- He's torn between this dream and his loyalty to Marek and the criminal world he's part of.

- Secretly, he's been developing an app that could potentially be his ticket to a legitimate business.

7. Skills and Weaknesses:

- Skills: Besides his tech abilities, Jai is a skilled negotiator and has a talent for reading people.

- He's also surprisingly good in hand-to-hand combat, having learned Muay Thai from his uncle.

- Weaknesses: Jai has a tendency to overcommit himself, taking on too many projects at once.

- He's also terrible at confrontation, often using humor to deflect serious conversations.

8. Physical Description:

- Jai is of average height with a lean build. He has sharp, angular features and dark, expressive eyes.

- His hair is usually styled in an undercut, the longer top portion often dyed in vibrant colors (currently a deep purple).

- He has a small scar on his left eyebrow from a childhood accident.

- Jai's style is a mix of tech-wear and streetwear, often sporting smart glasses and a high-tech watch.

9. Personal Philosophy:

- Jai believes in the power of information and connection. He sees his role in the criminal world as a way to level the playing field, using technology to give power back to the people.

- He has a strong sense of justice but struggles with the morality of some of his actions in the criminal world.

- Jai values loyalty above all else and believes that family (both blood and chosen) comes first.

- He lives by the mantra "Adapt or die," believing that flexibility and quick thinking are the keys to survival in both the tech world and the criminal underworld. This philosophy extends to his personal life, where he tries (not always successfully) to roll with the punches and find opportunity in change.

when i was a kid i read my Collected Grimm's Fairy Tales cover to cover a bunch of times & among my favorites of the obscure ones was "The Three Spinning Women," in which a girl's mother tells the queen she's really good at spinning (she's not) & the queen says she can marry the prince if she spins a huge amount of flax (which she does not want to do). instead she finds three ugly women who spin it all for her and then, at the wedding, tell the prince that if she keeps spinning she'll look like them (one of them has a big foot from treadling the wheel etc) and the prince absolutely forbids her from spinning.

it's a) delightful wish fulfillment for some teenage girl in the 1800s (you marry a prince AND you don't have to spin ever again!!) and b) a really good example of how the pop cultural conception of fairy tales as having a moral is sometimes true but a bunch of other times it's just "did you see that? damn it's fucked up. anyway i'm Jacob Grimm."

Princess Rhaenys made no attempt to flee. With a glad cry and a crack of her whip, she turned Meleys toward the foe.

The dragons met violently a thousand feet above the field of battle, as balls of fire burst and blossomed, so bright that men swore later that the sky was full of suns.
