Jackson - 26 - Medical Doctor/Medical Officer

I'm not a fighter. I've never held a gun. But I battle every day to save me people regardless. I believe every life has value, Sky person or Grounder alike. I don't discriminate, unless you give me good reason to mistrust you.

Ask me anything.

Do you like beans??

[Deleted]

Beans are a good choice in crops to grow, both on the Ark and on the ground. They're sustainable; they don't require very much water to grow, and they're high in fiber, protein, and complex carbs. There are a lot health benefits, and very little drawbacks, so yes. I like beans.

That would depend on if I was the biological father or not. If I was, I like Chaya for a girl and Rishi for a boy. If not, I would let the biological parents decide or decide with the partner I would be raising them with.

Being one of only two doctors in a war zone when the other doctor is spread thin with politics is stressful and exhausting. I thought it could make me a better doctor. On top of that, I felt guilty after the Mount Weather explosion. Abby would not have moved people in if I hadn't convinced her to take Nyko there for treatment. Not to mention how incredibly isolated and lonely I felt.

I really did not believe Chancellor Jaha would survive his assassination attempt on th Ark. I was terrified Abby would be floated for using extra rations for nothing.

That wasn't something I realized, or wanted too terribly much. Becoming an Officer just seemed like an inevitable part of my career path, though I was promoted to it much younger than I ever expected so that I was able to work on Project Exodus.

Of course I do. What would be the point of going on otherwise?

If I didn't, what would be the point in continuing to fight?
