> Jacob on Oct 2 with Ethan and Sadie

Jacob "JP" Conaway the main point of Conaway, being a part of his very good friends from his Track team, referred to as the Gym Bros. He was formerly an important member of the Gayvengers, being one of the four who started the whole group in his younger years, much before leaving them for the gym bro safter tiring of their antics and cruelty towards Jacob. He was formerly part of a friend group with his friends Logan and Angel but outgrew there comedy and antics. While Jacob despises narcotics and alcohol, he is sometimes seen to be engaging with his cousin Landon and his friends, alongside sometimes with Sadie or the Gayvengers. He is a respected member of the Conaway, Reiser, and Kieffer family, following his cousin's path with cross country and track, building his relationship further with his family. His family has fairly good money, or as Riley calls "white privilege". His parents divorced a few years after Jacob was born, and soon after Matthew was born.

Jacob worked with his father in Edwards Interiors, and still does rarely due to school. He also got a job at the Tinfin, which has taken a toll on time between himself and track, resulting in him quitting. He is seen talking to many women, but does not have a relationship, nor can he get girls due to his fear in screwing up, mainly Sadie, who he developed feelings for and has his eyes set for her. He enjoys watching tv shows and Youtube, or riding his four wheeler around listening to old music. He also prefers to stay at home, unless someone offers something fun planned.

## History

### Background information

Jacob Conaway, or sometimes known as "JP" was born on July 28 to Corey and Ashlee Conaway. When Jacob was young he was very imaginative and ran around the yard, chasing the dog or creating adventures from his head. Although his family knew people in his neighborhood, they moved out to where their family lived. Soon after their house was built Matthew was born, and they all moved into the home. Jacob had a liking for movies and popcorn in the house at this time, but soon Ashlee and Corey got a divorce, where he would stay at his mom's for most days. He would go to Mrs. Patrice's daycare center where he met his future friend Katelyn. he often drew household objects with faces, a way of bringing the world around him to life.

Later on he would go to Ebenezer Elementary School, and meet some friends and lose some for someone his age. For some reason, Jacob had a habit of lying about random things just for the smile of it. Around the 3rd grade, he and his cousin would start to ride the bus home to save time on their parents picking them up, where they met Reed, Riley, Reid, Remington, Chase, and Gary. They would start to socialize with the bunch and become friends with them. Around that time Jacob got involved with soccer with some friendly faces from his school, although embarrassing himself there.

Years later Jacob would get into 4-H in the 5th grade, doing DPA and community service, meeting many new people from these experiences. Later on he would go to middle school, still riding the same bus, this time his little brother joining in. Sometime while in middle school, Chase joined the bus, where the group harassed him for his opinions, but soon grew to accept him to the group. Also around this time, Jacobs dad would start to date Ali from the shop. Jacob and Matthew were always welcoming to her, and loved when Isabel, Riley and Grayson came to the shop for them to play. Around his 8th grade year, Jacob and Matthew moved in a house with Ali and Isabel, and Jacob was sent to quarantine due to the COVID-19 pandemic, which didn't stop him from making it into his high school.

### 9th grade

#### Start of it

Due to being at a whole new area and school than the others, Jacob no longer rode the bus with them, instead a different bus with Chase, Evan(Riley's brother), Max, and Isabel. Jacob took a French class where he met Isabel's friend Sadie, where the two hit it off in an awkward, but starting way. The only person who Jacob stayed in contact with from the bus was Landon, due to him being his cousin and neighbor, and occasionally seeing Reed and Chase down the road. Jacob would get into running down the road for his exercise, while also fearing every little noise he heard. he also was good friends with Logan, a former classmate of his in middle school and someone of which he hung out with a lot.

#### Halloween

On Oct 15, Sadie and Isabel brought Jacob along to a Halloween party, where they told him to behave and not do anything to start something, to which he agreed. He met with the two at a Parker's where Sadie's dad drove them to the party, with Jacob and the latter making small talk. While at the party Jacob first starts drinking, ignoring Sadie and Isabel's pleas for him to stop. While ignoring the calls, Jacob still managed to have fun while at the party, getting along with everyone there. After the party, Jacob and Sadie talked for the month, becoming close, and Jacob catching feelings. On Halloween, Jacob went to his dad's to see Sadie, where he heard she has feelings for him. Things were in his favor, until he fumbled the bag himself.

#### 3-4 Semester

Feeling down on his luck after ruining his chance with the closest he's ever gotten to a girl, Jacob was down for a bit, so Landon set him up with a girl named Meg. Jacob and Meg talked for a while, but Jacob couldn't see past Sadie and could only see Meg as a friend, leaving her. Around this time, Jacob grew more distant from Isabel, as she showed that she only saw Jacob as a lackey or a pawn. Soon Jacob began talking to Emily, another close friend of Isabel, which he did not fumble the bag of. Jacob still remained good friends with Sadie.

### 10 grade

#### The Return

Due to them moving a grade up and going into high school, Jacob reunited with Riley, Reed, Landon in high school now, and Thompson; Gary and Remington were lost due to separate ways. Reed and Riley now seeing what Jacob had going on in his freshman year find to be funny stories, most commonly his liking of Sadie. Nonetheless, Jacob could see that the two have changed since middle school, appreciating their new humor. Jacob would return to his French class, seeing Sadie again along with some new people, including Riley. But due to his bus group coming back, Jacob struggled to find time between them and his Logan friend group, such as deciding with who was going to be with at Homecoming or the Fair.

#### Homecoming

While talking with Sadie, she mentions how a new girl in their French class, Makenzi, mentioned him liking Sadie. Jacob looking to meet new people, decided to go talk to Makenzi from him and Sadie's conversation, and the two got along quick. After a bit of talking and getting closer, Jacob decides to ask Makenzi to homecoming, to which she obliges. But later on after a week of talking and absence, Makenzi notifies the day before homecoming him that she found a better interest in going to homecoming with. Upset that she got his hopes up and molded by the bus's opinion, Jacob called Makenzi a "whore". Moving on from it though, Jacob put together his outfit and went out to homecoming. He showed up and met with Riley and Reed, but due to them being absent for the former year, Jacob went to Logan and his friends and hung out with them there. Seeing Makenzi and her new date, Brantley, there, Makenzi approached Jacob, apologizing for going with Brantley and hugging him, to which Jacob accepted, but still felt ill-hearted. Overall, he had a great time there with his friends, but Riley and Reed were annoyed how their friend left them for some other guys. Back to school on Monday, Jacob noticed how Makenzi wasn't talking to him, rather ignoring him. Further into the day, Brantley told Jacob someone recorded him on the bus and sent it to her. Although they were sort of a couple at the time, Brantley had no ill feeling towards Jacob because of this, in fact it brought them to be friends. It also caught the attention of Makenzi's friend, Lily, who started talking to Jacob, the two began to "snap" and get close, asking each other to hangout and plan things such as dates. Lily and Brantley then asked Jacob if he'd like to come to a party Brantley's throwing. Of course, Jacob accepted.

#### Oct 2

Jacob and Lily were ecstatic for the party on Saturday of the week, they kept talking about it when they had a conversation. Brantley then told Jacob that Lily was getting feelings for Jacob, and asked him if he would make a move at the party. Soon Saturday came, and with much persuasion, Jacob's mother allowed him to go. Arriving at the party, drunk patrons stumbled from the trailer and bonfire, welcoming Jacob and giving him some drinks. Soon Sadie and her friend, Stephanie, arrived at the party, catching Jacob by surprise. Later on in the party, most people were hammered and stumbling around the grounds, including Lily. As they were all talking, Lily began to become more drunk and throwing up, so they decided she should be put inside. But attempting to be a good person, Jacob picks up Lily and carries her into Bratley's house, laying her down, and walking off. But to his surprise, a blonde girl ran past him, yelling, and as Jacob walked to Sadie and Stephanie they questioned what he did with Lily. Apparently the blonde, Maddie, had convinced a drunk Brantley Jacob did something to Lily. But believing it wasn't too big of a deal, Jacob forgot about it and continued his night. Later on after the party, Jacob and Lily were texting, to which Lily revealing the party was not happy with Jacob's allegation, and intended to harm him, with Brantley also spreading word of it. This brought Jacob to a low, being afraid to talk to Sadie and just more quiet overall. Him and Lily still talked though, planning many nights to hangout and more parties. But it was only for a few days before Lily broke up with him, breaking Jacob down a little more after Oct 2. Although a rough week, it brought Sadie and Jacob closer as friends, and created the infamous Oct 2 incident of many jokes.

#### The Fair/Halloween 2

Jacob had planned to go to the fair with Lily, but due to the breakup he had to find other people to go with, so he talked with Riley, Reed, and Chase, planning to meet them there with someone named David. Jacob showed up to the fair, and when he couldn't find the four, he found his friends from freshman year, Troy and Caleb. Due to not seeing them a while, Jacob got caught up with them, also hanging out with Angel and his girl, and others joined the group. As they ran from ride to ride, Jacob ran into the four he was going to originally go with. Annoyed that Jacob left them for the other group, they demanded he stay, but Jacob told them he'd be with them in a minute. But the group he was with rode many rides and lost track of time, and when the group left, it gave Jacob time to ride one ride with the four. Later the month, Jacob was looking for another party to go to, asking Sadie where he could find one. She said that someone named Payton was throwing a birthday party in a public area, but uncertain of this, Jacob asked to make sure he was invited and allowed to this, Sadie confirmed he was. After many weeks of confirming to see if he's ok to go and a night of Trick or Treating with family, Jacob went over to the party in his Joker costume. But not to his surprise he was not welcome there, as people were asking who he was, plotting to kick him out, and Sadie telling him "making everyone uncomfortable". Pissed off, Jacob called for a ride and left.

#### New Year's

The leftover of the Halloween party left more jokes from the guys to make of him at parties. Two months later, Jacob's friend, Amanda, invited him over to her New Year's party. Ready to get back out there, Jacob accepted and headed out. To his surprise, he was met with a bonfire, Amanda's family and friends, including Makenzi. But it has been months since homecoming, and the two put it aside, having a fun night overall.

#### The Fair 2

Later on in 2022, the fair was coming back into town and the group all wanted to go together. Planning it quickly and sloppily, they planned to go to the fair and go back to Riley's for the night. They all arrive(them being Jacob, Riley, Reed, Landon, David, Brennan, and Chase) to the fair and begin riding some rides, while Jacob records it all with hopes to put it on Youtube. Soon some girls arrive and the group gets separated but still there together, such as Reed and Chase getting stuck on a ride and Jacob getting scammed out of $20. They all met up around the Ferris wheel though, then a few loaded up in Riley's dad's car, Landon and Reed went in David's, and went to Riley's. His mom had made burgers and welcomed the boys, before they all ran into Riley's room and played some games. Soon after the rest came in, they hung out and later watched American Psycho, before all falling asleep. Jacob woke up early to go to Hilton Head to help his dad with work.

#### End of the Year

Around the month of May, Jacob, Reed, and Riley were joking around on the bus, when they had the idea to make a joke about "deporting" Jacob's stepsister, Isabel, while throwing some jabs in. The plan was to get some signatures, then show Isabel the petition, and laugh over it. After getting a few signatures, it backfired when Isabel found out about it, telling her mom about it then getting the school involved. Jacob was then called to the disciplinary office, where he met Mr. Kessler, and was interrogated on what he meant by this. Looking at Jacob as a bully and threatening him with a warning, he sent him out. Refusing to go down like that, Jacob took control of the situation. He had Landon take the blame for the petition by cutting money off what Landon owed him and had the group kid with Isabel on the bus of the situation. But almost immediately after Isabel was off the bus, Jacob was once again in trouble with his house, and told he was in trouble with the school again, even mentioning the sheriff's office getting involved. Annoyed and angered, Jacob went to Kessler's office, to which he left a complaint and his side of the story for the bus, also reporting the multiple times Isabel harassed him on the bus. Although they were settled on that, the group later found Isabel post about "how she has people will literally kill for her". Due to this cockiness, Landon managed to get the story and report Isabel for this, getting her 10 day suspension. But due to all the attacks from all sides, Kessler decided to check the bus security footage, catching Landon with a vape and Jacob encouraging Reed and Riley to harass Isabel for reporting them. Jacob grew sick over the week, unable to go to school for half of the week, but getting messages that Riley and Landon were getting suspended, warning Jacob he might be next. Hopeful he can get out of this, Jacob didn't worry about it, until he heard while he was gone Kessler was searching the school's classroom's for him. When he came back, Kessler dragged him out of class and asked him to read the aforementioned report he wrote. After listening to it, Kessler showed Jacob the footage, explain that the best thing he could do right now is shut up. Trying to explain that he was being honest throughout the whole report and including the harassment he gets from Isabel, Kessler told him "not to bring his home problems to this office" and calling him a liar who disrespect the office, suspending him for 3 days. Although they all got in trouble, Jacob saw it as a win, cause he didn't miss 10 days.

### 11th grade

#### Cross Country

After a summer of going to the beach and camping, Jacob reunited with the group on the bus in school. During the open house for school, Jacob was approached by Ellie and Brooke, acknowledging his posts of him running 5k's, asked if he would like to run cross country. Looking to do something more, Jacob happily accepted, which meant missing out on the bus in the afternoon. Jacob hit it off with the cross country group, acknowledging his recently graduated cousin ran it before he did. Jacob's cousin, Scott, heard that he was running cross country, and immediately took control of the situation, offering to train him. Jacob quickly became faster and even beating 20 minutes in a 3 mile run by the end of the season.

#### 2023

Jacob would later take advantage of his cross country experience and join the track team, becoming good friends with the team, going out with them more and more, much to the Gayvengers disapproval. Jacob decided to take a shot and ask Sadie to prom as friends since he had no plans, to which she said yes. Excited, Jacob told Brooke at track, much to her excitement. Soon spring break comes, a week before prom, and Jacob makes sure him and Sadie are still on, to which she says she is going with Stephanie instead as her youth group has a party bus, making Jacob incredibly disappointed. A few days before prom Brooke asked Jacob how it was going, leading to Jacob tell the story. Brooke felt remorse for the situation, then recommended Jacob asks Ellie. Jacob thought on it for a while, almost asked as well, but came up with a better idea. He went to Brooke and Sedique a night after a track meet and asked if he could go with them. Excited, the two said yes, but said they would have to talk to Ivey beforehand, as she planned it. Nervous for the outcome on the ride home, Jacob told his mom about it, and she told him to not get his hopes up. Seconds later, Brooke called Jacob, telling him Ivey said he could definitely come, much to his happiness. Sadie would later tell Jacob that she was kicked off the aforementioned party bus due to not having a real date, much to Jacob's satisfaction.

#### Prom

When junior/senior skip day came along, Jacob spent it going out with his friends as a beach day before prom. Levi picked him up, leading to a carpool at Matt's house. They met up with the girls and had a fun beach day, all the while Riley, Reed, and Landon wondered where Jacob was. On the day of prom, the plan was the same, until Lei was unable to get Jacon, leading to Jacob getting ride from his mom there. They prepared their suits until Levi arrived, then left for their photos. Just as they were arriving to the island, a car crash blocked their way, leading to an hour delay. They made it, got their photos taken, with a comment about Jacob's former date from Mrs. Richards, then they left for dinner. They ate at a fancy restaurant, then left for prom. While the team split up with their respected dates, Jacob walked around and talked with everybody, mingling with his friends there, but bummed out that the dance was just a "hyped up homecoming." The team left dropped Jamichael off at his house to change his clothes, where Jacob got a text from Sadie telling Jacob he was right outside their place. He then told Madison, Ivey, and Sedique that Sadie's there, making Sedique become curious of his change of plans to go with them instead. Jacob told the three the story, leading to the three to show disdain for Sadie due to her choice. They all went back to Ivy's condo, where they ate ice cream and talked about the night. They walked on the beach and joked around, then parted ways with the girls staying and the boys leaving. Levi took Jacob home for the night, Jacob thanked him for having him there for the night and beach day, with the former replying Jacob is a pleasure to have around. Jacob went home knowing this was the best day ever.

#### The End of an Era

As the end of the year was coming to an end, Jacob ran around the school fixing as many problems as he could then he had caused through his high school, as he felt like he could be a better person. He also began to get more nicer to Isabel. But as he ran around, the Gayvengers got angered and annoyed that he wasn't there, but when he was, they would ridicule his absence and his more time spent with the track team, leading to Jacob feel more distant from them. Before graduation came along, Jacob was invited to many graduation parties, leading to a busy schedule. He first attended his cousin, Morgan's, party, as he was closer to this part of the family due to his time with Scott. He ran into Ivey and Madison there, spending some of the party with them. Soon Morgan's boyfriend, Walker's, party came along, and Jacob talked to even more people there, even meeting the infamous Joel Carter. Later graduation came along, and Jacob got a ride from his dad to which Landon tagged along in, much to Corey and Jacob's annoyance. Jacob made it in time for Levi's valedictorian speech, then met up with everybody and got a picture with them and felt very happy when they asked for his company in their group photo. He then directly after attended Ivey's party, where they swam and took a lot of photos, then afterward played Jackbox. Jacob also went to Levi's birthday/grad party later. They also all met at Olivia's party, where Jacob and Sedique cleaned up afterwards. They went to Olivia's house afterwards and got into her hot tub, in this case Jacob had jeans on. They would later go to a haunted house where they all were scared and paranoid.

### Summer

#### VBS

Jacob attended his yearly vacation bible school where he volunteered and helped while staying the night and going out with the other helpers. He would meet up with his friends Victor, Harper, Brooks, Jacey, while also making more new friends. He helped out with 6th grade with Victor, while his little cousin Pierce took the class. Later Jacob would go and see Spiderman : Across the Spider-Verse with the group and enjoy it while most did not. They would later get Mellow Mushroom. The group then went bowling the next day at the local alley and arcade, they also played laser tag. Jacob would get up at 6 in the morning for the week and run, having talks with a close family friend, Brooks' mom. On Thursday night they would do an all-nighter and play man-hunt. Tired, Jacob wasn't at his top game at 2 am, while the others each had energy drinks to run off of, something was against as he did not have one. Victor had 7 and ran all over the place. Jacob and Luke, a new friend of his, would hide in the shadows of trees across the art building in the second round (in the first practice round he hid under leaves and was caught). With Sidney, Reagan, and two others hunting, they walked by the two hiders often. Once Reagan and Sidney walked by the shadows of which Luke and Jacob hid, noticing a sound as Luke attempted to move to the art building. With the girls walking towards the sound, Jacob began to panic when he heard rustling but didn't see Luke move. An armadillo had moved through the leaves and began to wonder towards the road between the trees and art building. The girls saw it and laughed as they assumed the leaves were from the animal and walked off, leaving an opening for Jacob and Luke to move to the art building. There were two doors on each side of the building and windows all over. Jacob took one side and Luke took the other, with Jacob being very cautious and coming up with warning sounds and warning Luke to not cut on a light. A few minutes pass and Jacob was watching the window when he got bored and opened his phone. This is when Brooks, Jacey, and many more who have been caught noticed the light and began to surround the place. As they headed for one door and walked around for the other, Luke and Jacob busted out the door and ran, alerting them all where they were, and the two got split up. Jacob would later get cornered and captured, as Luke continued to escape. Many rounds were played afterwards where Jacob lost every one, but he was in it for the experience. They stayed up all night and Jacob couldn't stay up at all, as could the rest, except for Victor who had 7 drinks. Jacob later slept through the classes he had with 6th graders but woke up when Victor gave him his first ever energy drink. Jacob later said his goodbyes and hoped to see everyone next year at VBS.

#### Camp

Jacob would then go to senior extreme camp for 4-H, where he hoped to see all his friends from last year's camp, unfortunately many could not make it and the ones who did Jacob was not close to. but this did not stop him, leading to him making new friends with a group of people who also run track. They would later become good friends and called themselves the Degenerates. This included Carolynn, Joe 1, Joe 2, Lee, Matthew, and kind of Owen and Preston. Jacob would meet the group at the rope course and hit it off with them. They would later meet at the pool and talk. They mentioned how there is a Joe 1 and Joe 2; wanting more Joes, they named Jacob Joe 3, thus beginning naming others Joe #. Later the Degenerates began to look up to Jacob as he was the oldest and they found him to be funny. The Gilligan's Island contest then began where groups must build a raft to sail across a lake to "Gilligan's Island". The Degenerates made their team then built a raft, differing from the other teams as they all built the same raft design. They would end up winning the contest, winning a prize later. As they spent more time together, the group began to realize Jacob slightly looks like movie character "Patrick Bateman", then referring to him as Patrick or Bateman for the rest of the week. Jacob would bring up that people say he looks like Rumpelstiltskin from Shrek, but they said he looks more like Patrick, making Jacob feel better with the consistency of being called Rumpelstiltskin. Through the week they would shoot shotguns and bows, making Jacob realize he's still good at the bow and pick up an interest in shotguns. It would also rain, flooding Jacob's tent but luckily he moved all his belongings to a shed beforehand. On Thursday the whole camp would go kayaking and was told to find a partner. Jacob would just pick the Degenerates as his partners as they went down the rapids. About three quarters through the whole trip Jacob stuck with the group, only to get cut off due to the number of rocks. Now stuck with no one around him, people way ahead of him and people way behind him, he tried to catch up to the Degenerates, only to go down a rapid quick, hit a rock and flip. As he tried to swim up, the rapids pushed him back to the rock and held him under with the kayak above him. With no other option, he threw the paddle to push the kayak off him and climbed on the rock, watching as the paddle flowed down the river and no one came. Soon a girl, Loralei, came along and saw Jacob, but just continued down the river. Jacob began to become enraged and swear as he beat the rock and kayak. Owen soon came by and managed to catch the rock, he then tied his kayak to Jacob's and tried to convince Jacob to get pulled the rest of the way. Worried for his safety, Jacob refused, but had no other option. After a few minutes, Jacob got in and set down the path. As soon as they set off, the two noticed Loralei waving a paddle at them, as she had saved Jacob's. Jacob, now forever grateful, thanked Owen and Loralei many times. He made it back and was angered at the Degenerates for leaving him but forgave them in humor and good faith. Due to the group winning the Gilligan's Island contest, they had a private bus to the camp, but the camp stopped by Kroger first, where the Degenerates grabbed cabbage, watermelon, and snacks for the night. As the night came, they sang karaoke, ate watermelon, put cabbage in one of the counselor's tents, and made s'mores. Jacob would later leave the camp afterwards and say his sincere goodbyes to the Degenerates, hoping to see them again next year.

## Personality

Jacob is seen to have a cover for each of his facades. He acts like himself around the rest of the Gayvengers, toning himself down around females though but keeping his humor. On the other hand, Jacob is rather quiet and depressed.
