back to the basics.

what to call me? James.

currently terrorising: London, England.
alive for: 26 years
metres off the ground: 1.87

to know the past is to fix the future.

James was born in Montreal while his parents were living there on a sabbatical. As freelance photographers, life was never very still and placid for the Parkers. Moving around the world James spent his life in boxes with little possessions and an eye for the curious. By the time he finished school, he'd lived in Austria, Finland, Poland, Mexico, Spain, America and Australia periodically, going to school's wherever his parents could place him. Andrew and Juliette managed to raise a well-rounded boy despite the frequent flyer points he'd accumilated who went on to study in Poland for a degree in muggle journalism where he passed with flying colours. After completing this, James went on to a internship at The Independant in England which he found utterly tiresome and boring. Afterall, talking about flying cars and politicians under the cut was old news compared with inner-ministry scandals and such. So when the Daily Prophet was offering jobs - he applied and happened to get it.

looking on the inside.

What you see isn't quite what you get with James. A handsome, dark haired, green eyed man with a constant look of puzzlement on his face that looks adorably innocent is the depiction of most people but James is hardly innocent. A well-rounded, incredibly astute and smart man he uses every asset he's got to get a good story. His year's of travelling made him curious and inquisitive and the thirst for the truth is still burning strong. At times a little obtuse and pointed James takes his job seriously. With the youth on his side, he uses his looks and charm to get his way at whatever cost. With gorgeous green eyes on his side - who could blame him? But he's amicable and social but when it comes down to time to work, he's punctual and pressing going to any lengths to deliver his work.

He's cheeky and can be extremely sly but overall he has a good heart albeit a slightly too large work commitment. Flirty and overall a good co-worker, he's always one for taking it for the team. An extremely competitive guy, James has a huge ego which takes a hit when things don't go his way. Mainly he feels a huge pressure to prove himself (mainly to himself) but to the world to show he isn't just James Parker - the Parker's kid. With famous parents it comes with the territory.

James despises sports and team activities. He prefers to work on his own and complete things at his own pace. He doesn't like being weighed down by other people's commitments as he feels it wastes their time and his. He can be slightly selfish with his approach but who cares when the story get's done either way?
