 Her art life matters: she is a working creator with a public **DeviantArt / Twitter** footprint, and her own bio lists **inflation** as one of her drawn kinks—though her posted gallery leans toward SFW commissions. Treat that as **characterization, not scandal**: it locates her in a very specific online-artist subculture and explains why she reads so comfortable around dragon / anthro / furry-adjacent clients like Rain without being part of his chorus.
 
 ## Battle Royale Function
-Jenni works best as the **commissioned outsider**: someone the court has to interact with because **she made things the court uses**—emotes, sub badges, maybe rigging work. She is not a gauntlet participant; she is the artist whose logo is on the merch. Visually, give her **clipboard / stylus energy**, a pouch or satchel over the cute mascot design, and a default register of "thank you for your payment :3" rather than chorus banter.
+Jenni is **diegetic and dual-hat**: she is a real chorus member AND the commissioned artist whose work is visible on the arena walls (emote gargoyles, sub-banner chains, possibly rigging). Her **public** interactions with Rain are visible to the chorus; her **private** commercial dealings with Rain are not seen, but the **fruits** of that work are on display throughout the set. In BR she **is** on the gauntlet roster—present because Rain extended the invitation to everyone in his orbit, including his vendors—but she reads differently than the other contestants: cordial, clipboard-energy, operationally competent, and quietly aware that the emote gargoyles on the colosseum walls are hers. Visual cues: **stylus / tablet** as signature prop, pouch or satchel over the cute-mascot silhouette, a default register of client-politeness ("thank you :3") sitting on top of chorus banter, not replacing it.

 - Notes: Her `:3` / `xD` habit and feline-muzzle mascot are **packaging** for a freelancer who writes invoices for a living.

The low quoted rate in the DM (~$3.33–$5/hour at four hours a day, six days a week) suggests either **developing-world pricing**, **early-career positioning**, or both—either way she works **cheap and reliably**, which is exactly why Rain hired her.
 
 ## Relationships
-Jenni barely engages the rest of the court in the archive. Almost all of her energy goes straight at Rain, but the DM archive shows **why**: she was never trying to join the chorus. The one-on-one focus is **client management**, not infiltration. Expect her to have **zero meaningful ties** to Azure, Ubear, Adrian, Starboy, or Agate in this continuity—she is adjacent to the show, not in it.
+Jenni is on the chorus roster but **networks light**—the archive shows almost all her energy going straight at Rain in a client-management register, not horizontal chorus banter. Expect **thin ties** to Azure, Ubear, Adrian, Starboy, Beanie, Rooster, Noname, Agate in this continuity. She is **in** the arena, but not **of** the arena's social web—she knows everyone by reputation and merch-order, not by shared bit. The quietness reads as professionalism, not coldness.
 
 ## Regard for Raincloud
 Jenni's regard for Rain is **vendor-to-patron** with a warm mascot overlay. She wants **the commission to go well, the next commission to happen, the invoice to be paid, and a shout-out on Bluesky** to drive referrals. She is consistently **grateful, apologetic about delays** (weddings, moving house), and **complimentary about his character/model** in the specific way artists talk about other people's IP ("cute character," "nice ref"). No flirtation of substance. No approval-seeking at the court level. She is being nice because **being nice is the job**—and also because she is, by local standards, genuinely kind.
