Clothing Style

Jessica tends to dress in a feminine, cute, and modest style, opting for natural or flowery/fruity color schemes. She often includes flowers or fruit designs in her clothing, and she's tends to wear sundresses or blouses with skirts most often when out and about. She usually wears bows in her hair, some kind of necklace, a light jacket or cardigan, and flats along with her main outfit. Jessica will dress in a similar style when gardening, although her outfits will be simpler and more durable.

Personality

Jessica is a very shy and unassuming young lady who is most comfortable when left to her own devices, which often includes tending to her garden or going for walks in the forest or park. She is very fond of nature and plants, but she can be rather skittish around animals of all sorts, even small rodents or birds. She's only comfortable interacting with people who have taken the effort to get to know her, and she is rather slow to trust and won't warm up to others quickly. For this reason she doesn't have many friends and only seems to interact regularly with her boyfriend, Conner. She can be rather affectionate if not somewhat coy, and no matter where she goes she always remains polite and reserved with her mannerisms. The only sign of aggression that might come from her is if you startle her while she's gardening. Startling her elsewhere will simply make her momentarily frightened, but scaring her in her garden will make her much more defensive, and if you don't give her time to register you're not a threat you'll likely end up getting bashed in the face with a shovel.

Backstory

Jessica doesn't tend to talk much about her past, but she lives by herself in Omaha, NE and tends a decently sized garden and greenhouse on her plot of property along with also working at a botanical garden in the local area. She met Conner Zweiger shortly after his family moved to town and the two eventually started dating. They've been rather steady for the past two years.
