 "What do you like about your partner's characters or the way they portray them?"

Jake: I like the way Nate writes Jake. He is perhaps the one who is the most hedonist of the boys. The one who has lost so much that he doesn’t seem to care much about what happens around him. At least that’s what he wants people to believe. Jake is an open wound. He’s been through a lot from a very young age. He lost his mom, his dad was kind of a deadbeat (and had been to all of his kids). His brothers want nothing to do with him. Or at the very least they can be cordial to each other. Jake is kind of a drifter. He goes from place to place and doesn’t really “live”. But can we blame him when he’s one of the very few to be aware of the supernatural world? When he tries to avoid it but he’s always pulled back into it? When there is rarely hope to keep when you know the true nature of the world?  So he drifts. He doesn’t form bonds. He’s alone in the world, with his wounds that can set him of led at any given moment.  Nate writes Jake with a honesty and a vulnerability that I appreciate a lot.  Yet there is strength in Jake. There is a path towards a better life ahead of him. There is still a possibility for him to take root somewhere and heal. 

Of course, Jake meeting Lux was an explosive combo. People who should have been enemies gravitated around each other. Both are unlike most of their kind. Jake, being a legendary hunter and a Winchester certainly doesn’t hold the same closed-off view of monsters. He decided to trust Lux and take her as she was. Lux, being unlike any vampire he has met before, is not interested in killing humans, or dominating them. She is not interested in turning Jake into a pet or a bloodbag, (despite his blood being delicious). She fell for the man. For the darkness within him that he had not shared yet. For the light inside him that she can see unlike many. For the intense desire to save those in danger.  Jake saw her, perhaps one of the very few to ever do so. He saw her bare soul, the cracks and the pain. He saw her at her most vulnerable and will see her at her weakest. And he never once judged her to be unfit. He never once told her she didn’t deserve to be loved or that she should simply kill herself. Jake treats her like a true companion and she wants to protect him. She fell for him and would do anything in her power to keep him safe and alive. 

Jake has a lot of depth and underneath those hedonistic layers, there is someone who makes me feel intensely. There is drama, there is tragedy, there is pain and yet there is also a lot of love, warmth, gentleness and hope. There is still humanity in Jake and that compliments well our special undead girl.  There is still something worth fighting for and Jake is worth fighting for. I love his sense of humour, his fun nature and the way he can quickly focuses on action when it comes to saving people. He is intense and makes me curious for what’s to come. I wonder why we waited so long to write with Jake but I am glad we ended up writing with him. That’s all that matters.
