> so.. it’s fair to say that his family do not approve of his job. in fact neither of his parents have ever attended any of his matches to this day, and are only on semi-decent terms with him because jun begrudgingly is still tied by name to the business and shows his face at events for all of 30 minutes until he physically can no longer maintain pleasantries. la is the epicenter of all things art and fashion - so a celebrity image being maintained there is perhaps is one thing they can manipulate, and even then, jun could get into scandals galore and still be doing his job. good press, bad press, it has the xu’s family name at the forefront of peoples’ minds, which always brings forth revenue.   > pros: could be a lot worse considering his upbringing, collected, and level-headed most of the time. wicked good at sports, and keeps a cool head in a tough situation. ambitious & curious. eager to prove himself, rich? and very endeared to people/places he finds fascinating. which are many. knows where the good, authentic chinese cuisine is. hardworking and very interested in the idea of progress.  > cons: the most private person alive, will not divulge any palatable information about himself or his feelings. devil’s advocate always. will put himself and others at an arm’s length the second he feels (disgusted noises) e-emotions (love, namely). gets bored easily. paranoid, leads with the head more than the heart. friends > > > family, but friends are few and far in between. a little self-involved, never fucking sleeps despite knowing it’s not healthy (adrenaline spikes.. amirite) - will be that neighbour you can hear padding around above your apartment at 3.05 am like it’s mid-day, aaaaand loves winning above all else.   * personality & relationships. > like many others, jun has his fair share of surface-level friends. he’s quick to be interested in people, to get to know them better, but it’s difficult for him to get closer than that after a childhood of being picked up and dropped by those who looked over him - which kinda has left him with abandonment issues. > he’s a curator of neat things that aren’t too overtly complex, and that includes friendships. so if you have something unusual about you, whether it’s a talent or a way of thinking, he would be inclined to get to know you better. also, he has a lot of leverage with his job. being friends with a sports star slash million dollar trust fund baby who can get you free shit never hurts, just don’t befriend him for the perks, yanno?  > jun is very dedicated to his vision of things, and can sometimes be very obstinate in the way he a) wants them to be done b) doesn’t accept other options, think steve jobs. he’s very mercurial and can be nice one minute but isn’t afraid to switch to hardass boss to get things done and did.  > he is insanely competitive and his strive is drawn out by always wanting to be on top. truly first child material. that’s the kind of guy he is, with standards that do not reflect his passive side too well, which sometimes can get him into some “personality” scandals. he is driven, motivated, always looking for ways to be winning. > i’m sure someone is bound to hate him, he’s probably got a few accounts online dedicated to a steady stream of shit-talking, given his cutthroat status or holding many hockey cups.  > jun doesn’t think too much about his sexuality - he’d probably best be labelled as pan, but leans towards those who identify as women, due of familiarity and comfort? because of his current placement in a workspace, and with a cultural identity that both don’t often lend themselves to lgbtq+ rights, i doubt he’d ever make that public. > he works amongst some of the fittest people in the world, he knows how to appreciate beautiful bodies, but he’s not about to discriminate. he’s tragically a committaphobe and isn’t interested in anything long-term right now, although i think it’d be funny if someone tried. he’s very open for flings and one-night stands and even a friends with benefits sort of set up.  * wc’s. >  bring me his baby bro or sis that are also not so happy taking over the family business. i command u. i have many thoughts >  somebody who maybe gets in on his foster-kid situation? idk maybe they have a perception of jun being what he is in the articles they read of him, but they see him and are like <3_<3 he’s actually real nice huh. i see this being romantic but it could bloom a really nice, wholesome friendship too.  [ TAKEN ] >  enemies. not gonna lie, he doesn’t vibe with rich kids w / a stick up their ass, especially since a lot of the people he works with aren’t from exorbitant families. people who loathe him for declining to take over his families’ business? like the boy can’t even name more than 3 artists off of the top of his head? > fwb except neither of them know what “just friends” mean. > i would love if jun had a confidante. a best friend, a partner in crime, a total bromance ‘cause i can never get enough of those. whatever label you ‘wanna put on it. wiping up each other’s messes. > again, gonna be a wc, but i would love a “rival” of jun’s on a similar level (or bigger)  that’s entirely fabricated based off of trashy articles or a misunderstood interaction online. bonus points if they’re an absolute sweetheart, well loved by most people, and generally the antithesis of jun with his multiple drug/personality rumours, which in contrast, make him seem like the bad guy. double bonus if looks can be deceiving and the sweetheart is the asshole, and the bad guy is just vibin’. > party buddy. this guy hasn’t touched alcohol/cigarettes/any other stimulants since he was underage and wanted to rebel. the word “relax” does not exist in his vocabulary. help
