❪ depression ❫ ... jojo has been struggling with depression since he was 14, and it has shaped his emotional and behavioral patterns in ways that make everyday life feel like an uphill battle. the constant weight of emptiness, worthlessness, and isolation leaves him feeling distant and disconnected from the world around him. he finds it hard to enjoy anything, even the things he used to love, as if a fog has clouded his ability to experience joy. depression takes hold of his mind, convincing him that he's undeserving of happiness or love, which only deepens his sense of loneliness. at times, it pushes him toward self-destructive behaviors-lashing out at people who care about him, pushing them away out of fear of being rejected, or making reckless decisions that end up hurting both himself and others. he often turns to harmful coping mechanisms like self-harm, trying to numb the pain, but these brief moments of relief only intensify his guilt and shame afterward. it feels like a vicious cycle that he can't escape. though jojo occasionally reaches out for help, the depression never truly lets go, always lurking in the background, draining his energy and making it hard to see a way out. despite his efforts, he struggles to break free from its grip, feeling as though he's constantly fighting a battle he can't win.

❪ shellfish allergy ❫ ... jojo has a severe shellfish allergy that causes immediate and dangerous reactions whenever he consumes any type of shellfish. his body treats the proteins in shellfish as a threat, triggering an immune system response that can range from mild discomfort to life-threatening symptoms. the initial signs of an allergic reaction typically begin within minutes of consumption, including swelling in his lips, throat, and face, which makes it difficult to breathe or swallow. he may experience intense itching, hives, or a rash, along with nausea, dizziness, and a rapid heartbeat. in more severe cases, jojo's throat can constrict to the point where he's unable to get enough air, leading to anaphylaxis, a condition that requires immediate medical attention. even small traces of shellfish can cause these reactions, making it essential for him to be vigilant about avoiding it in all forms. the fear of an allergic reaction looms over him whenever he's eating out or in situations where he can't fully control what's in his food, adding an element of anxiety to meals. if he does accidentally consume shellfish, the experience can be terrifying and physically exhausting, often leaving him feeling shaken and vulnerable long after the immediate symptoms subside.

𝗯𝗮𝗰𝗸𝗴𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱 𝗶𝗻𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻. jojo doesn't know much about his mother, and he often wonders if she knows much about him either. her time at the hospital far outweighed her time at home, leaving little opportunity for them to truly connect. as the years went by, their lives drifted further apart, each of them consumed by their own struggles and routines. jojo grew up with a sense of emotional distance, both from his mother and from the world around him, as the space between them seemed to widen with every passing day.

𝗯𝗮𝗰𝗸𝗴𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱 𝗶𝗻𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻. like his mother, jojo has little to no connection with his father. he spends as much time-if not more-in the hospital as she does, caught in a cycle of work that seem to take priority over any family bonding. his father is almost a ghost in his life, rarely coming home and always claiming he's too busy with work to be there for his family. jojo has grown used to his father's absence, yet a part of him still longs for a relationship that feels distant and out of reach. whenever he tries to connect, his father brushes him off, convinced that providing financially is enough. as a result, jojo often feels invisible, left to deal with the weight of everything on his own.

𝗯𝗮𝗰𝗸𝗴𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱 𝗶𝗻𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻. jade and jojo were incredibly close, bound by the fact that they were raised primarily by their older brother, with their parents often unavailable. this created a bond that made them inseparable. however, their relationship began to strain after jojo's original debut was cancelled. jade, concerned for him, urged jojo to seek help, but he refused, insisting that doing so would mean admitting something was wrong with him. in frustration, jade told jojo she couldn't be there for him unless he got the help he desperately needed, reminding him that his pain was affecting everyone around him. for two years, they didn't speak. it wasn't until 2020, when joshua stepped in and forced them to face each other, that they began to bridge the gap between them.

⸝⸝ ꒰ 𝗛𝗢𝗕𝗕𝗜𝗘𝗦 & 𝗦𝗞𝗜𝗟𝗟𝗦ㆍ₊⊹ jojo doesn't have many hobbies, as the weight of his daily life leaves him with little energy to do anything outside of his job. he often finds himself barely able to get out of bed, let alone search for activities to fill his time. he could say his hobbies include self-destructive behavior and fleeting encounters with strangers, but those aren't exactly the kind of interests you'd mention in polite company. instead, jojo focuses on surviving each day, with no real passion or drive to explore the things that once excited him. his energy is consumed by the pressures of his life, leaving little room for the things that might otherwise bring him joy or fulfillment.

⸝⸝ ꒰ 𝗟𝗜𝗞𝗘𝗦ㆍ₊⊹ jojo enjoys sleeping as much as he can, finding solace in the escape that rest provides from the pressures of daily life. he values the few friendships he has, cherishing the moments spent talking to those he trusts. one of his greatest simple pleasures is eating pickles-he's particularly fond of them, to the point that it's almost an obsession.

⸝⸝ ꒰ 𝗗𝗜𝗦𝗟𝗜𝗞𝗘𝗦ㆍ₊⊹ jojo has a deep dislike for people in general, finding social interactions draining and often uncomfortable. he hates being awake, wishing he could sleep through most of his days. his strained relationship with his parents makes them a source of frustration, and he avoids talking about his problems whenever possible. he dislikes walking and working out, finding both activities pointless and tiring. loud chewers, slow walkers, and crying children irritate him to no end, as does the sound of babies or the smell of chlorine. hot weather, sand, and public bathrooms all rank high on his list of things to avoid, and he feels a strange discomfort around pools and airplanes.

⸝⸝ ꒰ 𝗧𝗥𝗜𝗩𝗜𝗔₊⊹
❪ one ❫ ... jojo absolutely hates his stage name, thinking it's lame and ridiculous. however, after he felt he ruined his debut with dx:vil, he believed he had lost any right to speak up. so, he just let atlas do whatever they wanted with him, convinced that staying quiet was the only way to avoid messing things up even more.

❪ two ❫ ... jojo finds it incredibly difficult to talk about himself, often feeling a deep sense of unease when the conversation turns personal. this discomfort stems from a combination of past experiences and a natural aversion to vulnerability. he avoids discussing his feelings, struggles, or any aspect of his inner world, preferring to keep things surface-level. for jojo, sharing personal details feels like an invasion of privacy, and it often leaves him feeling exposed and raw.

❪ three ❫ ... jojo was always very serious about school. he spent his whole life believing that a solid education would provide him with stability, just in case his career as an idol didn't work out. however, as his schoolwork piled up alongside the demands of his idol life, it became more than jojo's already fragile mental state could bear. after months of struggling, he made the difficult decision to drop out of university in 2022 at 21, realizing he couldn't keep juggling both anymore.

❪ four ❫ ... one of jojo's most unhealthy ways of coping with everything is through casual sex. for him, as long as he's not feeling anything, everything feels like it's under control. his depression convinces him that it's a way to escape, a way to numb the overwhelming emotions that he doesn't know how to handle. but the problem is, in his clouded state, he can't think clearly enough to distinguish what's good for him from what's simply a temporary distraction. his mind, consumed by depression, makes decisions he knows he wouldn't normally make, leading him further down a path of self-destruction.

❪ five ❫ ... jojo doesn't keep many friends, thanks to what you could call his "people-repellent" personality. while he's social and charismatic when it comes to idol work, the moment it shifts to personal connections, he struggles deeply. he finds it hard to open up or let people in, pushing them away without meaning to. his inability to connect on a deeper level leaves him isolated, despite his outward charm. personal relationships feel like a burden to him, and he's never quite sure how to navigate them, leading to a pattern of distance and loneliness.
