Jacee is Asher’s best friend. When Asher quit football, Jacee did too. Asher was Jacee’s first friend at his new school, and Jacee hasn’t let go of him since then. Jacee transferred from Ireland five years ago, and has only ever felt comfortable when Asher was around. Jacee is loud, overly vocal, and extremely witty. However, Jacee uses his humor to mask his deeply imbedded insecurities and self-hatred. Jacee can’t bring himself to look in the mirror anymore (even though he is of decent weight), and hardly ever smiles unconsciously. Jacee forces happiness from himself in order to breed more happiness in others. Happiness he could never find himself. Because of his constant need to hide his emotions and make others smile, Jacee often does stupid and careless things, relying on Asher to keep him grounded. Jacee feeds off the attention and laughter he receives, constantly trying to maintain that attention by performing outlandish acts. Asher is the only one who knows of Jacee’s hidden reasoning and the past the Jacee hides from the world. Jacee’s voice needs to be immature. Not necessarily high pitched, but mid-ranged would be best. Also, he is VERY defensive when it comes to the pronunciation of his name. That line needs to be very angry. (A good vocal reference would be Hikaru from Ouran).
