Jaina... I think more than anything, Lee is glad that Neji has someone like Jaina around on his team. He still doesn't know as much as he'd like to about Neji as he'd like to, and Jaina is kind of a... new factor. But she seems very cool and very level-headed and just like the kind of role-model he would love to have on a team. In general, she impresses the hell out of him. I think one of the reasons he thinks so positively of her is because she purposefully asked him for the first quest he gave out? Because it took him a few moments to figure out what all he needed to do and just... she was very patient and helpful! It really impressed him, I guess, even though it wasn't that big of a deal. But small things make a big impression and, so far, she's been pretty friendly with him, which earns her major points! Which sort of translates in to wow I'm glad Neji has someone like that watching his back!!
He's energetic! She actually really likes that liveliness and determination. Especially as she's learning about him and his training, it's like meeting Bizarro Tenel Ka. She's...kind of treating him like she would a rookie pilot, but she's trying not to be offensive about it. Just want to get him up to speed! o/
She's vaguely amused at his application of the term ninja to various professions, especially ninja ambassador. D-diplomacy by assassination?
I do! I am counting down the days until the next app cycle, but I'm planning to app Jon Snow, from A Song of Ice and Fire / Game of Thrones. He's fairly different from Lee, actually, and I think he'll fit fairly well in with the game. Described as being sullen and intense. Fairly quiet and introverted, in general. The nice part is that because he's a book character, he'll have a ton of memories and skills in his various registries.
I don't really have a third character in mind, but then I'm not sure I could handle one. One day, I might consider apping a Personae, as well, but that's months out, easily.
Hmmm. What teams does Jaina like, other than Iolite? Any teams she feels irritated towards?
If Lee got to design a game, it would either be something fun and light-hearted or really intense. Either way, it would be pretty straightforward. He values guts and hard-work the most, so those are the qualities he'd be looking for in terms of what would win the game. I kind of imagine it might be something like... suddenly, the teams find themselves midway up a cliff and there's a safe, easy path that winds down and then a second, more dangerous path going up the cliff. WINNERS CLIMB THE CLIFF, LOSERS TAKE THE EASY WAY DOWN D: or something of that nature.
There would be zero risk of death, though, because he hates that.
If Jaina ever fills up her registry, what option does she choose? And why!
There's a point at which she probably would have tried to go to chill with Malcolm Reynolds and Inara Serra. For a while, her strongest emotion ties was to them, and with a complete registry she'd have that logical stopping point of having defeated her brother. It's noteworthy that at the end of Legacy of the Force, even while they're setting up the next storyarc by (not so subtly) hinting there's going to be big problems with Daala and the Mandalorians...Jaina's at that time sitting there in a mental place where she's going "Okay, it's done. I've fulfilled the prophecy I've been worrying about since I was a teenager. The Sword of the Jedi has saved the galaxy." She could say she's done her duty, lived up to everything that was piled on to her, and go chill on Joss Whedon's version of the Millenium Falcon having excellent adventures.
Then she started developing in a different direction. |D
Right now, she'd probably choose to stay and help in another fashion -- going off to work in another realm. A lot of what Jaina's doing right now is identifying by her idea of what it means to be a Jedi, and with Jaina Solo that means ALWAYS WORKING. Even if she doesn't like the Personae, her view of the situation is the world is in trouble and it is definitely important to save it from the darkness, so sure, this is the battlefield of the day for the Sword of the Jedi and she'll stay on the front lines as long as necessary.
Aspects of Lee's character you're most interested in exploring?
I think I'm most interested in exploring how he'll cope and change when things become really bad. Like a lot of people, Lee has a limit as to how optimistic he can be and when things get bad enough, it's going to affect him. In canon, he's broken down twice due to circumstances - both times because he thought he'd never be able to accomplish his goals. In both instances, he had Gai there to comfort him and tell him it will all be okay. But he won't have him here and very few people can match Lee's energy level and his optimism, which means that he probably won't find the same kind of comfort here. So I want to see how he copes and how he changes, because that really interests me. And also who he comes to admire in the moments after.
In addition, I'm generally interested in exploring... hmmmm... I want to explore his character outside of his constant desire to be stronger and train constantly. It's a difficult task, though, because he's so impossibly shounen and he's constantly training in canon. One day, though, one day...!!
If Jaina could chose, are there any memories she would want back right this moment? Any ones she would never, ever want back?

Jaina's favorite teams are Tiger's Eye, Heliodor and Sapphire. They're the teams with people she admires and/or wants to shield the most.
...Uh, the team she is irritated toward is Iolite. A lot of cases where characters couldn't see eye to eye.
Lee gets to design a game! What happens in it?
