Jimmy Olsen is an award-winning photojournalist and occasionally viral internet star for the Daily Planet. He is known for an idiosyncratic love of bowties and for being Superman's BFF. Also sometimes he's a giant turtle, because comics.

(out of character )

Pace. Ngl my tagging habits have been pretty erratic as of late. I am quicker with stupid text stuff but I try to hit logs every few days.

Backtagging. This is fine, I'm happy to keep tagging.

Fourth-walling. Jimmy Olsen is famous in-universe for being Superman's Pal®, so I don't mind if people recognize him. Anything more than that will probably be treated as 5-D nonsense.

Brackets/Prose. I default to brackets but I have no strong preference, & will match yours if you have one.

(in character)

Physical Affection. Who's a hugger? I'm a hugger.

Violence. This is fine though Jimmy is not a punchy character by nature.

Psychic stuff. He's a normal human being who suffers .

(canon preferences)

Comics Familiarity. ????? I don't know what I'm doing but I'm generally caught up on Rebirth-era Superman/Action Comics. I have read multiple (!!!) issues of the Pre-Crisis Jimmy Olsen comic, including the one where he goes back in time, murders Alexander Hamilton, and undoes the Revolutionary War.

DCEU/Arroverse/&c I've seen some of this stuff and some of it I haven't but very happy to play from other continuties and embrace the silliness of cross-dimensional crossover.

Secret Identities. In current DC Rebirth continuity, Clark Kent is publicly known to be Superman, and Jimmy, specifically, figured it out a while ago. But I'm generally willing to work around that if it's not fun for you.
