I've read the bedroom thing so I can remove my original one if Jason shares. I don't mind him sharing either. It might add to the drama.
It's so long... I'm so sorry.

http://static.guim.co.uk/sys-images...al/2009/8/3/1249319955499/White-Mouse-001.jpg
Jason is very protective of Souris and is very careful, knowing that he is quite delicate. He wants to have another pet mouse, but knows that it would be a big responsibility to have two pets. Being quite responsible, he never forgets to feed Souris and provide water. At first, he didn't know mice were nocturnal, but he does now and likes it as he has an excuse to stay up late.
Preferred Hand: Left-handed. (Jason is an extremely messy writer and his words are only just readable unless you're used to reading it.)
Lifestyle
Hobbies - Jason is a constant fidgeter and would much rather be playing sports than reading, writing or drawing. His favourite sport is football, but he generally just enjoys being outside. He likes his pet a lot as well. At night, when he's not allowed outside, he's normally in his room conducting chemical experiments.
Talents - Sports, good sense of direction and time, but he's not good at anything like hockey (things with sticks. Lacrosse is an immortal enemy.) He's also good at chemistry.
Grade - Sophomore, high school
Occupation - Part time newspaper boy, he does it on Saturday's.
Educational Focus - Chemistry, or possibly medicine
Occupational Ambition - Be a scientist, perhaps in the branch of doctors if he does well in school.
Criminal Record - Jason never got caught, but he often pick-pocketed and once broke-and-entered.
Likes and Dislikes (an addition to lifestyle)
(It's very long so... yeah)
Likes in general
*
Explosions - He likes things that blow up. He generally likes to learn about the damage and fireworks are some of his favourite things.
*
Not getting caught - When Jason has done something he knows is wrong, he normally blames it on someone else. Not getting caught means there's no punishment, and Jason likes that. It gives him the thrill of his thieving past.
*
Blood, war, death, bombs - Jason likes pain. These things cause pain. They fascinate him.
*
Loud noises - For the same reason as explosions. Jason just generally doesn't like silence. Loud noises keep him alert.
*
Rodents and reptiles - He loves Souris for a reason.
*
Children (especially those who like him) - Jason doesn't mix well with people his own age very often, mostly because he likes the nonchalance of small humans. He has close relationships with Ashley, Daisy and Phil because of this. When a child likes him, it makes Jason very happy. He likes to protect those he cares about, and children need protecting.
*
Being outside - Jason feels free when he's outside. There is no sense of feeling trapped when there is endless miles all around him. He can wander around.
*
Making people laugh - Jason isn't a constant joker, but when he does joke, he likes it when people laugh, because it shows they are enjoying his company.
Dislikes in general
*
His biological family, especially his mother - Jason felt betrayed when his mother became an alcoholic. She seemed to care more about the drink than she did about him. Despite having a relationship with his father, there is always going to be tension towards him and other members of his biological family.
*
Going to sleep - Jason can be murdered in his sleep. Also, when he's asleep he has nightmares sometimes, and... well, they're nightmares. He's not going to like them.
*
Maths - It doesn't really make sense in Jason's head. The only reason he tries is because he needs it for chemistry. But then... calculators.
*
Feeling trapped - Claustrophobia is Jason's biggest fear. He doesn't like to be confined and the idea of not being able to escape is terrifying to him. He doesn't like to know that a door is locked or that a window can't be opened. He hates being inside for too long. Jason's claustrophobia is likely to be caused by the idea of going to prison being bad, and in prison there is no escape. It could also be because of bad memories (see extra).
*
Snow/hail - Being snowed in? No thanks! And hail hurts. Jason likes pain... but not on himself.
*
Alcohol - For obvious reasons. If it wasn't for this, he never would have had to leave his first home.
Opinions on:
*
Films: Saving Private Ryan - When he's not playing video games, writing to his father, or is outside, you can find Jason watching this film (his favourite), often with homework ignored next to him, and a look of fascination on his face. Film wise, though, Jason will watch anything (from Disney to horror to romance) if you ask him to. Not saying he'll enjoy it. Other films he enjoys are: Dante's Peak, The Hunger Games Trilogy, Divergent Series, Forrest Gump, anything like Batman/Superman/Avengers (superhero films) and The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas. TV shows aren't really something that Jason spends much time on.
*
Music: Jason can't sing no matter how hard he tries, and certainly won't be seen humming, let alone singing, any songs. His taste in music is little to none. Whatever's on the radio will do.
*
Food/Drink: Jason eats quite healthily, liking fruit and vegetables. He'll eat nearly anything given to him, but sweets (except sour sweets, which he loves), chocolates and cakes are not something he's a big fan of, since he doesn't have a very big sweet tooth. His desserts are things like yoghurts and fruit salads (or lolly-ices).
*
Video Games: Jason owns an x-box. His favourite games are Call of Duty, Assasin's Creed, Bioshock 2 and FIFA, though he does play other games. He's not quick to complete a game with a general storyline (like Bioshock 2), much rather he would prefer to destroy unnecessary enemies than follow the plot.
Personality
P: Gentle/loving/joking/forgiving/protective
N: Sadistic/sly/secretive or mistrusting/paranoid
The best way to describe Jason is definitely confusing. On one side of him is a gentle human being, who loves animals and younger people, who is willing to have a laugh, and who just wants to let go of his past with a forgiving nature. He's very protective of those he cares about and definitely doesn't want them to see his darker side... speaking of the other side, let me tell you about it. He's a sadistic boy obsessed with the likes of bombs, bloody wars and death. He finds comfort in others suffering, sometimes to the extent he finds it funny. He can be very sly, good at not getting caught when he's been bad, secretive and mistrusting, maybe even described as paranoid due to the fact he tells nobody anything about his past, so people only find the kind side of him.
Biography
Jason doesn't really talk about this and only really Angelica and Robert will know all of his past. The others will know fragments.
Jason was born an only child, and grew up an only child. His mum, Lola, worked long hours at a local shop, and so, Jason was placed with a nanny, whom he loved more than his own mother, by the name of Charlotte, whom happened to be the mistress of Jason's father, Murray. His parents were alright till Jason was two years old. Then began what Jason thinks of as 'The Screaming Days', which lasted longer than Jason thought they did (he thought they were a month at most). It was the time when Lola learned that Murray had been paying Charlotte visits for more than just babysitting arrangements. Every night, there was screaming, until… well, until it stopped.
A neighbour had called to complain. The police came round, and arrested Murray because Lola had a nasty gash (and was understandably crying her heart out). For a while, it went well. Despite not having a father figure, Jason grew up fine. Or, at least, seemed to grow up fine. Something clicked in him, and his dark streak was a little bigger than everybody else's. When he realised it was bad to be fascinated in death, he buried it, only letting his "good" traits show.
When he turned ten, his mother had, at this point, spiralled into a pit of downright despair. She was unemployed and her drunken sprawls, although never aimed at Jason, made him extremely terrified. He ran away, as part of his mind always pondered, "Is it going to be me instead of the wall next time?" He was quick to learn the world was harsh, as harsh as his obsession, and he used it to his advantage. He was dragged into the world of thieving by his "mentor", Paul, and, due to his sly nature, was good at it, and he never got caught. He stopped after breaking-and-entering into a house. It reminded him that this was bad.
A few weeks after his breaking-and-entering feat, Jason was placed into somewhere he always knew was coming: the care system. He was twelve at this point, and met a family called the Ellingtons. They looked after him in a way Charlotte, Lola, Murray and Paul didn't: they cared about him. It was… nice. It made him feel bitter at first that he hadn't been allowed to have it before, and he didn't want to think about anything that happened before his life straightened up. He feels he has changed since then.
Jason was originally a foster child, but he was adopted by the Ellington family, as a thirteenth birthday present. For his fifteenth birthday, he received a chemistry set. He wants to make a bomb, but he doesn't have the right... ingredients. He sticks to doing low-level 'experiments', also known as stinkbombs, that he tends to leave around the house, especially Randy's bedroom. He stays away from Ashley's and Daisy's rooms, however.
Relationships
Scarlett
"She can be a brat, but she's good most of the time."
<Jason thinks Scarlett is a really caring sister, but he'll stay away from her if she's being a brat. They don't really have much similarities when it comes to what they enjoy doing, but he'd always be willing to take Nico on a walk if she asks. >
Felix
"He's pretty quiet... unless he feels like it. I don't really know how to feel about him."
<Jason thinks Felix is too quiet, and when he's not, he's rambling. He doesn't know which one is Felix himself. He seems to be quite nice though, and Jason doesn't hold anything against him. >
Ashley
"I like her, but I always feel like I'm signing wrong."
<Jason talks to Ashley through ASL, but feels quite self-conscious doing so because he's worried he'll get it wrong, which he often does.. He likes her iguana though, and they both like science. He also likes to explore with her. Once they found a really cool lizard. >
Dante
"I don't know how she can sit down with her puzzles and stuff."
<Jason and Dante both like animals, but the similarities kind of end there. Still, he doesn't mind her, unless she's angry. >
Max
"Max? Who's Max?"
<Jason doesn't even talk to Max unless he talks first, because the two are very different. While Jace is outside, Max is inside, so they don't really spend much time together. >
Jack
"I like his magic tricks."
<Jason finds Jack's magic brilliant, but he knows they're just tricks and he finds it more brilliant to know how they work. He thinks Jack is very smart to be able to awe other people, but he has a feeling the other doesn't really like him, though he's not sure why. >
Daisy
"She's really sweet. I love Daisy."
<Jason adores Daisy. He loves to play with her and walk her to school and hang out. She's one of his favourite siblings. But, he avoids her when he's feeling horrible. He's very protective of her, and doesn't want her to see too much of his darker side. >
Angelica
"She's my mum and I love her but she doesn't love my mouse."
<Jason sees this lady as his one true mum. She's kind to him and he likes going shopping with her, but ultimately, he wouldn't mess with her. He knows she's not a big fan of Souris, but she bought him, and he loves him, so she's stuck.>
Robert
Dad
"He insists he's good at football."
< Jason enjoys football, mostly because he wins it every time. What is it now? 30-0? 35-0? He loves to mess about with his fun loving dad, and wants a good relationship with him. He classes Robert as his real dad, but not in the same way he feels Angelica is his mum. >
Randy
"It's hard not to hate."
< Jason hates Randy. He curses, he's violent, and he generally doesn't like people. The opposite of Jason's good side. If Randy can prove that he can be nice, Jason might stop leaving stinkbombs in his room. Maybe. >
Zuri
"She's... happy. Very, very happy."
< Jason sees Zuri as someone who he'd hang out with on a good day and maybe be friends with, but she wouldn't be much comfort when he's down. He thinks there must be something that she hides like him, but he hates the idea of her happiness causing him to hand over his trust, and tries to avoid her. She doesn't share his love of violence either. Still, he doesn't hate her, but he's certainly weary. He feels like she wants to get into his head.>
Phil
"Aww..."
< Jason adores Phil. He thinks he's so cute and he doesn't even mind when he intrudes on what should have been a personal space bubble. He has quite a good relationship with him, but only if Phil wants to do something Jason is into (so no drawing.) He just wants to hug Phil till he explodes. >
Other:
Secrets
Jason has a secret that he keeps to himself. Although the relationship between him and his father is a rather small one, they recently began exchanging letters, unknown to the other members of his family, after Jason found out that Murray Morris receives no visitors at the prison, where he will be for the next three years after the domestic abuse (that seemed to have happened for a lot longer than Jason remembered, perhaps even before he was born). Although he hates his biological family, there is still the blood connection, and Jason doesn't want to hurt the feelings of his father and maybe have a relationship when Murray is released from prison. Jason believes that Murray receives no visitors because his mother doesn't like him, whereas the real reason is that Lola Morris died of alcohol poisoning shortly after Jason ran away from home. Jason hopes that Murray will learn to love him, but hasn't told Angelica, Robert or any of his siblings due to fear of judgement or rejection of his decision to attempt to rebuild a neutral relationship with his father, whom he hasn't seen from a young age.
Bedroom
Jason's bedroom is rather plain. It's colour scheme is dark, yet bland colours (black, brown, grey ect.). His bed is neatly made, and the duvet has no pattern, being just black. He has a desk on the opposite side of his bed, which is a single, with a spinning desk chair. His desk holds his chemistry set, and next to it is his shelves. The bottom of the shelves are cluttered with schoolbooks, that are messy compared to the rest of his room, whereas the top is chocked with chemicals and rocks/metals/whatever he feels like using at the time, laid neatly in rows by chemical symbol (with the chemicals) and size (with everything else). There isn't proof that he notes down any of the experiments he does (because he doesn't). His curtains are plain and grey, next to his oak chest of drawers. The top drawer is where he stuffs his letters from his father, whereas the rest are full with neatly folded clothes. He feels quite uncomfortable if people go through his drawers, mostly because he believes they may open the top one. He doesn't let his mum (or anyone else) to put away his clothes because of this. There is a television on the wall a few paces from his drawers. On the floor lies an x-box, with two controllers. One is wireless, one is connected to the box itself. The wireless controller is ironically closer to the television than the non-wireless. This is because Jason does not sit on his bed while playing. He does, however, have the remote on top of the drawers, which are within reach from his bed. The television is not huge, but has HD quality. Souris, his pet mouse, is next to the television remote. Finally, as you open the door and look to the side, you would see a football and a pair of football boots.
Sleep Cycle
Jason has a very distinct biological clock, resulting in a late night/early morning sleep cycle. He seems to be able to function with about seven+ hours sleep, but anything less than that, not so much. Dream-wise, Jason can only remember fragments, and tends to forget when he tries to tell someone. His dreams can range from normal look-backs on the earlier day, with recognisable people, to solitary confinement in unfamiliar places, which tends to happen when he falls asleep with negative emotions or if he has done something he is guilty of during the day (for example, showing his dark side, not working hard on his chemistry, missing a goal in football... and so on).
Memory of Claustrophobia
This is likely to be the cause of Jason's claustrophobia. He was at a sleepover at about the age of seven (before his mum was mean) and it was his first sleepover. There was only four of them there and they began to play a game. One person would go into the spare room and be locked in. Whoever could stay in the locked room the longest was the winner.
Now, it was actually just a prank to mess with someone, arranged by the host. Jason was going first (though it could have been anyone who was pranked). Unfortanutely the prank went quite wrong. He was locked into the room, and, although Jason doesn't really know how, the key was lost. He was there for quite a while, crying, begging to be let out, and generally feeling like the walls were coming in on him. Jason was (obviously) rescued by the host's mother, who had a spare key, but Jason has generally been scared of being trapped somewhere since. This could also be why he is mistrusting as well.
NOTE:I'm British so when I say football I mean soccer...
