Once Upon a Time in 1999
TimeLordJake for Junior
Junior is a 12-year-old orphan and passionate devotee of the animatronic mascot, Superbee Come Learn With Me. He believes himself to be the naive, bright-eyed and hopeful hero portrayed in Superbee's stories as a parasocial relationship gone to the extreme. Junior is young and innocent but harbours something within him that is dark and disturbed, taking form on screen as a collection of ominous blank playing cards left to him at birth and his absolute refusal to believe that Superbee is capable of villainy.
As a card-dueler banking on the power of love and friendship, Junior is inspired by the Trading Card Genre (TCG) of anime including the famed 90s program, 'Yu-Gi-Oh'. His voice is of best suit to that of a young child; one that is often the brunt of the joke and picked on by other characters for his presumed naivety.

"Not a stick or a rock or cardboard in rot. A game with nothing can be anything you want. That’s what Superbee says."
"I collect everything Superbee makes. Every Tinkertoy from Peter Peekaboo to Dinodactyl, Her Liege Faeline and even the controversial Betti Vendetti. Nobody can tell me what these cards are, but I know Superbee just had to have made them. He makes everything else."
[Upset] “Miss Holiday buys me the toys! If she had got me the cards too, she would have told me… I was left with these because someone cared about me. If they were made by Superbee, then he cares about me too. You’re just jealous she doesn’t get you anything.”
