#poor guy was deeeeeeep in the closet though thanks to his pops and his toxic masculinity though so there was a reason at least

“Ooh...I do, I do, I do, I do! Hey! Ooh...I do, I do, I do, I do! Boy, you got me helpless! Look into your eyes, and the sky's the limit -- I’m helpless! Down for the count, and I'm drownin’ in ‘em...”

Jackson Knightly (A.K.A. Jackie, Jacko, and Jack) is generally considered one of the “cool kids” in both his class and Slytherin house overall. The young Quidditch commentator is best known for his charisma, charm, lofty ambitions, and overall fearlessness, making him the perfect host for loud parties, an ideal partner for oral reports and debates, an excellent conspirator for any “bending-the-school-rules” kind of affair, and (of course) a very fun person to just hang out with. But those people who do get to know Jackson well enough that he gives them personalized nicknames -- such as his BFF Adelia “Addy” Selwyn @that-ravenpuff-witch and his other close confidantes, “his sweet Demiguise,” Hirtia Caldwell @cursed-ice-spirits and “his lady Vipertooth,” Orla Atkinson @hphm-brooke -- know that he’s not as shallow and easy to read as he first appears. Underneath that sociable, confident mask, there is actually a real sensitive side to Jackson, making him incredibly dedicated to those people he lets into his heart as well as affectionate to the point of fawning and even smothering. Therefore when old Jacko fell in love with his friend Montelimar “Monty” Bloom @cursebreakerfarrier in his later Hogwarts years, everyone who was not a close friend of Jackson’s was completely blind-sided and flabbergasted upon seeing this cool, suave charmer turn into a completely lovestruck, blushing, overly romantic dork about the subject of his affection.

In short, you could say when it comes to his brilliant Frenchman, poor Jackson is completely and totally helpless~💚
