sketchingideals: (☆ i'm sorry...)
[From the very first moment that Jeb first starts talking, it's obvious that something's wrong.]

Hello, everyone. It's me, Jeb. I just want everyone to know that Silver has gone home. ...the one who lived with me, I mean. I'm sorry.

[He cuts the feed there, then starts up a new one. One a bit more personal, aimed only at a select few.]

[Filtered to those Silver left letters to, 95% unhackable]

...he left letters for you. Please feel free to contact me, so we can settle on a time and and place to meet up!

[It's obvious that he's trying to be happy, but it's pretty forced overall.]

[Action]

[Jeb will be out and about for a couple of hours. Most commonly he'll be seen trying to draw in various locations, but it's obvious that he's too distracted, too upset, to really get too far. He'll probably appreciate the company if one decides to approach him.]
sketchingideals: (☆ hoping things will turn out okay)

Well, I've hit another birthday since I've been here... it's hard to believe that I'm nineteen now!

[He smiles a little, though it's a little strained. Not as strained as it would have been even the week before, however.]

It's been hard lately, hasn't it? Does anyone want to spend time doing something fun? It doesn't even have to be about my birthday--if I can help anyone in any way, if I can make someone else feel better, that's the best present of all. Please, let me know! I'll meet you outside the Ground Building, and we can figure things out from there!

[Action]

[If anyone takes Jeb up on his offer, he'll be doing as he said and standing outside the Ground Building waiting for them. The Silver who's his roommate may or may not be accompanying him.]

((OOC: Please specify if your character wants to just spend time with Jeb, or if both Jeb and Game!Silver being around is okay. Thanks!))
sketchingideals: (☆ put on the best smile you can)
[Jeb will be all over the place during this event, as usual. He's here to help you out, new people! If he stumbles across certain familiar faces, however, it may shake him up a little bit. For the most part though, he's ready and willing to provide help.]

Good afternoon, everyone! I can't believe I almost forgot this, but today's my birthday. It'll be the first birthday in Luceti that I've celebrated at my actual age! The last time it passed, the Malnosso had made me ten...

Anyway, I know a lot of things have been hard here. There have been some rough times for me, but there have been some really good ones, too. I feel like I've grown quite a bit since arriving here! I'm even a little taller. [Two inches is something to brag about when you were 5'1" upon your arrival, okay?] But where I feel I've grown the most is as a person, and I do think I have Luceti to thank for that. A-At least to an extent!

Especially to the people I've befriended, even the ones who've gone home. Thank you, everyone. [He's eighteen now--an adult. For all his personal growth, it feels strange. He still feels far from being an adult. But it's okay. He'll get there, he knows it. He's already come so far...]

[Action]

[A little later, Jeb will be doing his usual thing around town. Going to the bakery to get sweets, stocking up on food for him and Silver, stopping by the flower shop, checking the general item store for anything neat...

Feel free to catch him anywhere around town--he's definitely going to keep busy for a couple hours. Just because it's his birthday doesn't mean he should hole himself up.]
sketchingideals: (☆ err... well not exactly.)
[Morning comes.

Jeb gets himself out of bed, plans out in his head what he's going to make for him and Silver for breakfast, gets dressed... and as he's fiddling with the clasp of his bracelet, it dawns on him.

He's been wearing this thing consistently for almost a year. It'll have been a year in a couple of weeks, and he's still wearing a bracelet given to him by someone he was never in love with in the first place. All for the sake of reminding himself of a promise he made.

He still believes in that promise.

Maybe he's foolish for that, too. Or maybe he didn't want to leave Mithos alone because that's his own fear. Being abandoned and left behind for people more impressive, people more good than him.

It scares him. He'd never do it to anyone else--even if they wanted him to.

He has the chance to start over now, doesn't he? ...but if he takes it, does it make him manipulative? Maybe he should get advice on that. After making himself a little more presentable, he makes a video post.]


[Video]

Good morning, everyone! I hope you're all doing well today. I have a question for you all, and it's probably going to sound a little weird. But I hope it doesn't sound too weird, because maybe it's something a lot of people want deep down. Who knows?

Anyway, if you got the chance to start over with someone you know or knew, would you? Or does that seem wrong to you?

Thanks to anyone who answers!

[Action]

[A little later on, Jeb's making a quick run to the flower shop. It may be winter, but ever since his elemental powers awakened, he's felt more at peace around plant life. Feel free to catch him while he looks around!]
sketchingideals: (☆ i'm sorry...)
[After who knows how many nightmares of the same moments leading up to his return over and over again, Jeb's shaky attempts to keep himself as optimistic as he's always been are finally beginning to crumble. After waking up from the bloody imagery once more, he pulls himself out of bed shakily and moves over to his journal. After retrieving it, he moves back over to the bed, placing it in his lap.

He decides to make a written post addressed to the public of Luceti. However, he does two things beforehand. First, he covers the camera. With his ideals torn like this, he's not sure he wants anyone to know who they're responding to. He's more ridiculously self-conscious than usual, after all. Secondly, he thinks of his twin brother's writing and tries to adapt the style, hoping to further erase any traces leading back to him.]


Say you've believed very strongly in something for a really long time. Ideals you didn't think could ever be broken, no matter how hard things got. Something you could always believe in, because you really thought the world around you could be better.

What if something happens where you begin to question those? Especially if you begin to question them because people close to you got really hurt? Or they could even be dead, but you don't know and you have no way of finding out?

Is it okay to not want to see the world as beautiful as you usually do for a while when things like that happen?
sketchingideals: (☆ breaking already broken pieces)
[About a day ago, Jeb vanished from Luceti. He left no trace behind this time, almost as if he had been sent home.

Well, he had been sent home--what had been a day in Luceti had been a year back home. He had learned so much... about Tori being the fragment, about his own connection to Terare of Earth... more details of the atrocities Donovan had committed in the past and continues to commit. And despite that, he can't hate Donovan. He can't--

The last thing Jeb remembers from back home is being attacked. He wasn't entirely sure why--didn't Donovan want him and his twin siblings alive?--but Tori and Michiru had shoved them out of the way.

And that's the absolute last thing he remembers, fresh in his mind. He... he doesn't even know if they're okay...

His eyes open, and he shivers. He's just in those white cotton pants again, his clothes once again folded next to him. He's back. He's back in Luceti, though it registers in his mind slowly. He's even woken up close to the spot he did when he arrived the first time.

He should lift himself up, try getting to the village... but he can't. He just can't. With blurry memories of the year he spent here and much more fresh memories of Tori and Michiru taking that attack swimming around in his mind, he just curls up and holds back tears.]


I'm so sorry...

[It's probably fortunate--and unfortunate--that the journal is recording. It at least ensures that someone will know he's not gone for good. Alternatively, feel free to find him, whether it be accidentally or intentionally]
sketchingideals: (☆ joyous laughter)
[Jeb's become found of his housemate's Pokemon, and while he cares about all three of them dearly, there's one who he's really grown a bond with.

Anyone who encounters Jeb this afternoon will find him accompanied with game!Silver's Sneasel and probably notice that he looks very overjoyed to be in the Pokemon's presence. Jeb makes sure to keep Sneasel in his sight at all times, though sometimes that's a bit tricky.

Jeb certainly won't mind if someone comes up to them, though he might get uncomfortable if questions start getting asked...]

((OOC: I have game!Silver's mun's permission for this, don't worry. Also: Sara, if you post with game!Silver, is it all right if his thread with Jeb is the last chronologically?))
sketchingideals: (☆ little fear [event])
[On the afternoon of the 13th, a small bespectacled boy can be spotted on the very edge of town. He looks very frightened, panicked and above all else very confused. He tries to keep out of the way of anyone he passes, but he really seems to be one step away from freaking out completely.

In other words, Jeb's back from being mallynapped, but he's now the delicate age of ten... though he looks a couple of years younger, due to being on the small side.]


---

[After Jeb finds his way back home (likely with the help of Silver), he spends his time fiddling with his journal until he finds the video function. Once that happens, his facial expression fills with an intense amount of joy.]

Wow, this is so cool! I didn't think this is how I'd be spending my birthday, but maybe being in this place isn't so bad.

...I'm sorta glad time isn't passing at home, though. [He knows that much.] Tori and Jebbi get kinda weird when something happens to me. So can anyone see this? What are you all up to?

((OOC: Sorry for the quality of my child!Jeb icons, I'm mostly just quickly sketching them up and inking so I know they aren't my best.))
sketchingideals: (☆ but i'm not great like her [event])
[The feed starts with a small, feminine groan--even more feminine than Jeb usually sounds. Then a little bit of shifting around can be heard. It's then that someone starts speaking:]

Hey Silver, are you around? I think I need some--

[For a moment, there's just silence. Then, quiet sobbing.]

Why? This is too much, even for this place. I-I can handle anything else, but why...? When I already miss her so much?!

[The sobbing just gets louder before he--she?--realizes the journal's on and hastily moves to end the feed.]

((OOC: To explain, Jeb currently is affected by "you are what you love" and has thus taken the form of his beloved girlfriend Tori. ...and isn't taking it well, obviously.))
sketchingideals: (☆ err... well not exactly.)
[Filtered from game!Silver, 80%]

Hi, everyone. I have this friend who lives with me, and... well, he's been more upset than usual. I talked to him yesterday, and he just told me that it's the time of year that's bothering him.

I didn't mean to snoop, but... well, he did mark it on the calendar, and--well, his birthday's on the eighteenth, and I think that's part of what's bothering him. A really big part. So I thought maybe... maybe I'd throw a birthday party to make him feel better! But it probably wouldn't be a very good party if it were just me and him, and I'm not entirely sure what to do for him either.

So... I thought I'd ask you guys! Any ideas would be great, and if you want to come, please tell me! I really want to make this a birthday Silver will remember in a good way.
sketchingideals: (☆ everything i do is with my best)
[voice]

Out of curiosity, what kind of chocolate does everyone like? Personally, there's a lot of kinds I enjoy! And you can use chocolate as a topping for a lot of things, too... how many of you have had chocolate-covered strawberries? Those are wonderful!

[written - filtered to Mithos - 75%]

[He can feel the fluttering of his heart as he writes the message to the other boy.]

Would you like some company today, Mithos? I'm not doing anything and I really want to see you. I can bring some art supplies over, and maybe make something little for us to eat! So, are you okay with it?
sketchingideals: (☆ it's a truly blissful day)
[Jeb will be all around the village during this lovely event. He wants to help as many of these new people as possible!]
sketchingideals: (☆ blush and contemplate)
[Jeb has been thinking about what happened right before he was taken here a lot more as of late... about what happened with Donovan. No, not Donovan--Aero of Wind. He doesn't want to think that the man never cared, that some of their time together had been sincere. He refuses to believe that it was all a lie, but it still hurts. It hurts that his former friend had put his hometown in a state of being 'frozen.' It hurts that the friend he made ended up being the one who was trying to take the life of Tori, someone who has always meant a lot to him, even before they became romantically involved.

He comes to the conclusion that maybe, just maybe, someone in the village might understand how he feels. He turns on the audio function of his journal, and after a few brief moments, he speaks.]


This is probably a very weird and sudden question, but... um, have any of you ever had a really close friend who then hurt you?
sketchingideals: (☆ i guess i don't get it)
[(Accidental) Audio]

[After talking to people in his last post, Jeb's feeling a little better about things with the person who had attacked him. This morning, he feels a little... contemplative. Ironically enough, it's about something he was told by the same person who assaulted him--not that Jeb's aware of it.

Nor is he aware that he turned the audio function of his journal on.]


"Beauty is all but non-existent in such a ruthless and vile world." [That's what the anonymous person on the journal had said. He repeats it quietly, over and over, like a mantra. He eventually sighs, frustrated.]

There's no way I can accept that, not when I've been shown the opposite so many times! But...

[He's quiet for a few moments before sighing again.]

I wish that person didn't have something happen to make them think like that, but that doesn't make what they said true at all. I'm going to keep doing my best... but it would probably be easier if everyone was here. ...I miss you, Tori.

[...and he finally notices that his journal is open and... recording.]
Ah, how long has that been-?! [Embarrassed, he slams it shut.]

[Action]

[Later on in the day, after recovering from his embarrassment, Jeb will be all around the town to keep himself occupied--feel free to run into him.]
sketchingideals: (☆ tell me you're okay)
[For the most part, it's been pretty easy to pretend nothing happened. No one asks, and Jeb kept to himself for the days following it. Unfortunately, that doesn't really change the fact that he was physically assaulted by someone he doesn't even know about a month ago.

After waking up from what felt like the thousandth painful nightmare (whoever stated that you can't feel pain in your sleep was obviously lying), Jeb goes for his journal and begins to write...]


Good morning, everyone! I just have a quick question--it shouldn't take up much of your time at all. I've been having some nightmares [He pauses, hesitantly, before continuing.] about getting hurt. Do any of you have any suggestions that might help with that kind of thing? It would be really appreciated, thank you in advance!
sketchingideals: (☆ i can't help but love the world)
[One good thing about being taken here is that Jeb hasn't run out of inspiration for art. Currently, he's found a nice place to sit and draw the surroundings around him.

Feel free to approach him, but don't be surprised if he doesn't hear you at first or jumps when he does. This is something that steals his focus very quickly.]
sketchingideals: (☆ i'm still learning so much)
--nder what this does... hey, is this recording? Woah, this is a journal that can record things? Even if I don't know what the heck is going on, that is so cool! So, um, can anyone tell me why I woke up with no shirt on? It... it's a little embarrassing, and I feel really exposed--hey, I have wings! What the...?! People don't really wake up with wings! But I guess they also really don't wake up dressed in something different, either. Hey, I wonder...! [There's a pause, before the sound of running can be heard and a loud thud after that.] Ow... I guess they aren't meant for flying, even if they are neat. Oh, hey, there my clothes are! Now I can actually feel comfortable! Well, with how I'm dressed, at least. I still don't know where I am, and that's not good at all.

...

Where is this place? [And then, reality slowly begins to hit him.] I-If someone can hear this, does anyone know the way out of here? I really can't stay here, even though the scenery is beautiful. If I wasn't in such a rush to get back, I wouldn't mind sketching a bit of my surroundings. But I can't stay! I have to go home, I have to make sure everyone is all right! But it would also be rude not to introduce myself, if anyone can hear me. My name's Jeb, and it's nice to meet you!

Since I'm a derp and forgot to do this before, here's Jeb's application! Since it will serve as a profile here, I haven't included the OOC stuff. I've also removed an OOC note in the name section. However, I've kept the samples (both from his original application and his canon update application) I used in because they do help give more insight on him, as well as an explanation on his abilities that I was requested to write up. Enjoy. ♥
