Jinmay Chen Nieli

1.) For legal purposes, Jinmay had to choose a surname. She chose "Chen" because Chiro mentioned it as being his mother's maiden name and it was easy to remember. However nobody – including history books – really uses it. She's glad. Knowing that it's a name she chose, rather then one inherited from parents, just reminds her of how inhuman she is.

2.) Her first day in Shuggazoom, with implanted false memories of moving, is terribly lonesome. Nothing feels right, and her surprise is actually quite minimal when she learns the truth. Like she knew it the whole time but was too much of a coward to admit it.

3.) Speaking of which, the thought of a monkey in a belly shirt still gives her nightmares.

4.) Jinmay becomes an honourary member of the Hyperforce following Chiro's episode in the Zone of Wasted Years. She is inducted as a full one when the team returns from their escapades involving the Dark One Worm. These are some of the happiest moments in her life. To know that she is doing something useful, to belong, to be a hero, is an emotion she relishes in. History shall forever remember her as a loyalist to their cause. In later years, Jinmay will stop and look back at these moments with some level of confusion. Hadn't somebody told her that she was meant to protect, long before her memory was "cleansed?"

5.) She hates her hair. It's only looks decent in pigtails, the colouring is terrible, and the texture makes her want to scratch all over. But having some hair is better then none, so...

6.) Out of all of the monkeys, she considers Nova to be her best friend. This isn't just because they're the only girls on the team. From the start, she's had a strong emotional connection to her, like they understood each other without having to say a thing. In return for the soldier's compassion, she comforts her in her hours of need. Their bond strengthens in the years during and after the war. Jinmay believes nothing will surprise her until Nova admits uncertain feelings surrounding Mandarin.

7.) She was hesitant about getting married to Chiro. Their relationship had had strains. What if it didn't work out and she was left broken-hearted? What if he realized he couldn't stand the thought of marrying a robot? After all, he was organic. He'd grow old, and she would appear fourteen years old for the rest of her existence. People would question, their reputatioons would be at risk. And in the middle of war, they needed full support from the public. But these doubts were present for a mere two seconds. She instantly overcame these uncertainties, shouted "YES" and hugged him until he couldn't breathe.

8.) Jinmay has hated shopping ever since she had to buy a wedding dress and met all of those pushy saleswomen.

9.) She was devastated when she discovered she couldn't have biological children. Of course, this was to be expected. She dreamt of it at night. It haunted her whenever she had considered her future. Those words spoken by Gibson in the spur of the moment will always make her flinch, not with hatred towards the scientist, but grief. "Robots can't have families."

10.) The day her memory comes back, she'd sitting at the breakfast table, bargaining with her stubborn adoptive son. These actions are familiar to her. Wasn't she talking to an uncooperative toddler a few years ago? She then remembers the professor, his wife, and their little children. She remembers every emotion she experienced, every joyous day alive, and every time they stood by her when her rights were violated. The first people who respected her. The man who built her to help his family heal in the wake of their losses.

Jinmay slowly puts down the spoon, mouth slightly open. She wishes she could cry.
