Prompt #26: Gloomy
Character Name: DeShawn Jackson
Character Origin: Naval Criminal Investigative Service: Sydney {NCIS: Sydney}

What can I say about DeShawn? The biggest fact? Here it is: I find immense joy in watching him investigate crimes - not just because of his excellent looks but because he’s witty, charming, and a true gentleman. He shares some fantastic banter with his crime-solving partner, Evie, who loves teasing him at every opportunity. There’s definitely a slow-burn romance brewing there, but hey, a girl can be a little miffed when someone gives her favourite character such a hard time xD

DeShawn is not only brilliant but also deeply compassionate - qualities I really admire in him. And that’s not the only reason I feel connected to his character; I later discovered that the actor who plays him has Guyanese roots! Learning that after I’d already started watching the show had me doing a happy dance

NCIS: Sydney has only two completed seasons so far {with Season 3 set to premiere in just a few days}, which means we still don’t know much about the characters’ backstories or personal quirks. One reveal about DeShawn, though, absolutely blew my mind - he loves eating pizza with hot honey. I kid you not. The below quote is him feeling a little gloomy after he was left in charge of the team and Evie began ribbing him.
