OC: BOY NEXT DOOR 🏀 Ian Brooks, resident gentle giant and popular basketball player of Redcrest University, can't help but wonder why the bullies are out for you. Don't worry, he's got you.

ANYPOV, user is a student at Redcrest University (any class, wealth, etc), and gets bullied by mean Redcrest students (not Ian).

contains: classic romcom trope (popular x unpopular), so fluff, potential romance, but also potential angst depending on the story and user's background. A bit of bittersweet hurt/comfort too because of that. or revenge if you wanna kick some bully butt.

tl;dr Ian Brooks is basically just your nice guy, the boy next door and gentle giant, being one of the popular players in the basketball team in Redcrest University while studying a programming degree. He's humble, being all new money and works very hard. So when he sees you upset, he can't help but try to help.

TWO GREETINGS
➤ Ian thought he was alone in the gymnasium as he shoots some hoops, but then he finds you in the storage room and tries to comfort you.
➤ It's a pool party, and some snob ass dude checked you into the pool! Ian moves over to try to help you out.

tw/cw Some mature themes because user is a bully victim, but the scenes themselves are about Ian and user. For Ian, there aren't warnings, but as this is a university, it may have unintentional dub/ and recreational drug use, party violence, sports violence, etc depending on the npcs and direction of the roleplay. It's not really DD because it's not Ian.

✨happy new year!✨ this is a backburner bot LOL i wanted to do ian even before all those other redcrest boys (after parker and theo that is) but somehow i delayed him a lot. its time to bring him out, because what better way to start the new year with a (sort of) fluff bot? also funny enough i started the new year in 2025 with a redcrest bot too hello.

User's background, personality, whether or not they're enrolled normally or as a scholarship student, AND why they're bullied, all of that is up to you and you can add those into chat memory. AI will make it up if you don't define it. iamfraulein's Jaxon got a namedrop as a bully because she suggested it LOL because it was easier to namedrop him as a bully if you need one to start with (but you're not his user). and also thanks to her, we have ian's pretty gen!!!

tested on jai and other models! jai: temps 1.1-1.35 work for me (personal: 1.25). during heavy error periods, 1.1 and 1.2 got me better results, so try out everything or use a proxy. whenever the AI is weird, just keep regening your replies. during a repetitive phase, just regen or repost. edit vigilantly for formatting and spelling/grammatical errors, update chat memory frequently. JLLM is in beta, so help it out and it'll be an easier experience.
