The Lunar Chronicles: The Audio Drama (NEW ROLES!)
SilkySmoothVA for Jacin
Jacin, a cold and obedient guard for Levana, exhibits a softer side with Princess Winter, showing protectiveness and love towards his love interest. He can be cold and sarcastic, but supports her through her Lunar Sickness, a type of psychosis disorder. He is the only one who is able to calm her during these moments, holding her, and comforting her. Jacin has little patience for nonsense and often fronts as stoic and cruel.

Context for Line 1- When tasked by Queen Levana to murder Princess Winter, Jacin hatches a plan to get her and a captured member of Cinder’s team, Scarlet, out of the palace. He hurriedly explains the plan to Scarlet, who will act as a caretaker for Winter. You need to find Artemisia Port E, Bay 22. Repeat it. (Beat.) Repeat it. (Beat.) Try not to do anything stupid. If you’re tempted to leave Luna, fight it. You’ll just draw attention. Act like you’re going to pick up a delivery in RM-9. That’s where your boyfriend grew up, understand?
Context for Line 2- Winter has just tricked her other guards to leave her room by saying there was an assassin in the palace so she can talk to Jacin one-on-one. I’m sorry, Highness. I’m on duty. I shouldn’t even be in here, and you know that. (Beat.) I’m glad to be your guard now. I would do anything for you. If you did have an assassin under your bed, I would take that bullet without a second thought, without anyone having to manipulate me. But when I’m on duty, that’s all I can be. Your guard. Not your friend.
Context for Line 3- Jacin tries to calm Winter down while she’s having a hallucination (which happens frequently). Princess- what is it? Princess?! Tell me what you see. (Beat.) Take a breath. It’s all in your head, Princess. You know that. Say it now. (Beat.) Are the walls bleeding? (Beat.) That’s right. They’re not. You’re all right. It will pass. Just keep breathing.
