Dandelion - What was the hardest point in your muse’s life, and how did they overcome it?

Jasper’s grandparents died when he was in his late twenties/early thirties (they died four years apart) and that hit him hard. The two people he loved most in the world were gone and he felt incredibly alone for so long. He’s still not really over it, but when he feels sad he remembers the good times he had with his grandparents and cherished those memories.

An honourable mention goes to the time he split with Natalia Sinclair- Hannah’s mother- and when he found out she had died. Despite their extremely rocky relationship, Jasper genuinely did love her and thought that they could work things out once they were outside of their professional boundaries in order to form a better relationship. But things weren’t meant to be. And he was pretty devastated when he heard Natalia had died, grieving in private and no mentioning it to anyone (the only way he knew how to deal with it); the only good thing to come of it was that it was the catalyst to bring him and Hannah together.

Jasper: Trying to find something good on doordash and scrolling through it hoping something will pop up kind of feels like when you go to the fridge, find nothing good, shut the door, but then look again hoping the food you want has magically appeared.

Jasper: But this is the boring answer- it’s usually pizza for me.

Jasper: You can’t go wrong with pizza!

Jasper: Except when pineapple gets put on it. That’s inexcusable.

Catalina: So, my final attempt at trying to find something good to door dash went completely in the trash. Catalina: What is your usual go to for takeout? @jaspermorgan

Iris - What subject would your muse consider themselves an expert on?

Film and Victorian literature, although Jasper wouldn’t call himself an expert because he’s too modest and because he would say that he’s always learning something new!

Jasper didn’t anticipate that the conversation would end up here, but he found it both amusing and interesting. He loved any excuse to go full-need with someone.

He nodded, completely agreeing with Roxy’s choice. “Living in Rivendell is an excellent choice. But The Shire would be a dream home, honestly. Everything is so beautiful, so simple, and so cosy there.”

He then thought for a long moment. “Maybe the Marvel or DC universe? And just hope that I’d get some kind of cool superpower. Or Doctor Who; I’d love to time travel, but really only to the past. I’d love to meet some of my favourite writers and actors.”

where: any bar and restaraunt!

"If you could live in any fictional universe, what would it be? I'd have to live in the Lord of the Rings universe. Specifically, I'd live in Rivendell because I would love to think I'd be an elf. Like, tall and beautiful and gorgeous."

Jasper felt a rush of warmth when Hannah enveloped him in a hug. It was a joy he never thought he would get to experience and one that he considered himself very blessed and grateful to have in his life. Hannah had taken a simple gesture and given it so much weight in meaning and being able to return the embrace was so special.

He was reluctant to pull away, but Jasper didn't want to overcrowd Hannah and let her sit down. “I saw some stuff online about the show. I think it was a lot better than ‘wasn’t terrible’.” He laughed. “It’s just another proverbial feather in your cap. I have no doubts that you'll have plenty of upcoming opportunities and those casting directors out there would be mad not to want you in their productions."

"No, not yet," Jasper then answered. "I was going to get you usual, but I didn't want to assume- I thought you might have wanted something different, so I waited. But, as always, the drink and any food you'd like is on me. What would you like, sweetheart? Do you want to eat?"

It was a stark contrast between what she felt this time as she returned to Aurora Bay than what she’d felt when she arrived in Aurora Bay for the first time several months ago. Months ago she’d been terrified of either never finding her father or she’d find him and he wouldn’t want anything to do with her. She was thankful neither happened and instead they hit it off immediately and he wanted to get to know her seemingly as much as she wanted to know him.

Hannah happily accepted his invitation to get coffee together and when she saw him wave her over she practically ran over. Maybe she was a bit too excited to finally have family but she didn’t care. Nothing stopped her from wrapping her arms around his shoulders in a hug. “Hi!” Home. She could get used to Aurora Bay being home.

“It wasn’t terrible. I’m so excited to be back here! Have you ordered yet?”

Jasper didn’t usually venture out so late, but he enjoyed how quiet the town was when all the shops had shut, most people were home, and when he could really clear his head. The sea breeze was one of his favourite things about town; there was always a constant aroma of salt even on the outskirts of town. It had become the smell of home.

Jasper found himself reminiscing his early days in Aurora Bay when stopped by the stranger, but all thoughts had vanished as he came to refocus on the present. He had always been unable to deny someone when they asked for assistance, so smiled at the stranger. “Not a bother at all. I’d be happy to help if I can. What’s the matter?”

open   to   anyone,   set   anywhere   during late hours   …. @aurorabaystarter .

You’d think she’d have given it much more thought when she’d seen the battery life on her phone depleting. Asked for a charger or even ended her night a little earlier to ensure she’d be able to make it home. It’s her fault for assuming that it’d be easy despite only being in Aurora Bay for a little over a week. It’s when she’s walking down the streets of the town do they seemingly appear foreign to her under the mask of the night. Safiye had only managed to make it a couple feet and about two (maybe even three) before letting realization fully sit.

She had no idea where she was going.

Admitting early defeat, the brunette back pedals back to where she’d come from as eyes scanned for anyone who looked like they’d give her the time of day (or night). “Hey, I don’t mean to bother you,” she begins, lips curling up in a sheepish grin as she spots a possible savior, “But you think you can do me a favor?”

[jaspermorgan]

Have you ever had your heart broken?

“Oh, yes. It’s not something I talk about. It’s still rather raw, even after all these years.”

29 — Last time you went to the cinema? What movie did you see?

“It was a screening of Back to the Future since it’s the film’s thirtieth anniversary this year and what an awesome film it is, even after all this time.”

[jaspermorgan]

40. Favorite author?

“I’m going to be that guy and say I don’t have a singular favourite author. I love many of them, but most of all the Victorian fiction writers like Arthur Conan Doyle, Robert Louis Stevenson and Charlotte Brontë. I also love more modern writers like Sarah Waters, Kazuo Ishiguro, and Agatha Christie. But I never choose just one.”

[jaspermorgan]

What is one thing you wish your parents could’ve done better when raising you?

“Been emotionally available. Or, just available at all. I never understood, and doubt I ever will, why they ever had me if they weren’t going to be parents in any capacity.”

[jaspermorgan]

Do you miss anyone at the moment?

“I always miss my grandparents. That feeling has never left me. But I also find myself missing Natalia- Hannah’s mum- even though it’s been almost thirty years… Now and then that doesn’t happen, but even though it was a turbulent relationship she did sort of change the trajectory of my life, so can you blame me?”

[jaspermorgan]

Do you know if your parents were contemplating naming you something else? What was the name?

“My father wanted to name me Ambrose after his own father, who was a decorated Navy Admiral in his heyday. My mother wanted something strong and bold like Leopold or Aloysius. But they disagreed with each other’s choices- as they did on many occasions. But they liked William just enough to pick that for my middle name. My grandmother always said it was her that suggested Jasper, after suggesting a million other names, and it was the one my parents immediately both agreed on. I suppose that was the one thing they liked about me.”

[jaspermorgan]

All time favorite movie?

“To Kill a Mockingbird, without a doubt. Nothing beats it for me.”

“No ice, thanks,” Jasper answered. “And an excellent choice of drink. It was like you searched my conscious to find exactly what I needed. You’re good.”

He sipped at the whisky, enjoying its taste and warmth and was glad that he hadn’t been tempted into a novelty cocktail. Some things just needed to be kept simple.

“I’m taking life at whatever pace the tourists set,” Jasper joked. “One of these days I’ll get ahead, but I don’t want to exhaust myself before I even have a good chance to finish the race. And to exhaust that metaphor, too. But I’m glad you’ve been well, Santi. Maybe if you make enough money tonight you could take a little time off. You deserve it.”

"Good man," Santiago says of Jasper's choice of drink for the day, perfectly on theme and far easier to make than some of the zany cocktails that he let Roxy convince him to put on the menu for one day only.

With scope to choose for him, Santiago opts to pour him a measure of Redbreast 15, opting for no ice to not sully the whiskey itself, more of a personal preference than a hard and fast pub rule.

"You want ice?" He asks him as he places the cap back on the bottle, placing it behind next to the register so it was within arms reach if Jasper liked it enough to want another, "I've been alright, kept going. This place keeps me plenty busy. What about you, Hollywood? Still taking life at your own pace?"
