{ Name;;
Benjamin~ but almost everyone calls him Min.
{ Gender;;
Male.
{ Personality;;
Min is a quirky, clumsy, but loveable little guy. He has a complicated personality and many sides that he wouldn't dare share with the world, however, there's a few sides of him that shine through brighter than others~
{ Loves to please;
If you get to know Benjamin better you will soon realise that he would do absolutely anything to be liked by you and others. It's not a complex, but more of a naive outlook on life that if he doesn't make enemies along the way he will always live happy.
In a childish way he would change his ways and even opinions just to please somebody, sadly Min tends to get on everyone’s nerves in the process. While trying to be the best that he can possibly be, Min might end up copying or mimicking others, he doesn't seem to realise no one really likes being copied (or owning an involuntary mirror for a day), it's a silly side of him for sure.
{ Clumsy;
He is a rather clumsy bean with a tendency to knock things over constantly. It’s cute most of the time how he forgets he has four legs, loses his balance or accidentally backflips.
Others think he might be made from actual jelly, no matter how many times or how brutally he falls over, he just jumps right back up, cheerful as always- it’s very admirable.
{ Happy go lucky;
One side of Min that is impossible to dislike is how cheerful and goofy he is. He’s the kind of dragon who likes smiling for the sake of others; he ignores all the negative things and gives everyone the courage to be happy.
{ Adventurer;
Seeing as Benjamin is virtually indestructible he uses this quality to go on endless adventures. He has always taken a liking to archaeology and collecting antiques, he often goes on long tiring trips in search of something undiscovered. It puts a gleam in his eyes to see something old or new, shiny or ancient.
Though he may come off as a little ‘dumb’ to most, Min is wise, clever and really knows his stuff.
{ Courage is trouble;
Bravery is an odd thing-
It is something that is and has been very important to Min throughout his life.
You could call him a brave bean, but in a different sense. He fears many things, especially first experiences- the first climb, the first swim, the first discovery, even the first friend.
However, whatever troubles he does face, fear never gets the better of him. Min bravely goes through with any challenge and when it’s over he’s not afraid to do it all over again.
It’s this quality that led me to Benjamin and so I’m grateful for his courage, even if it is troublesome-
Years ago through a horrific incident Benjamin almost drowned, it was his first time facing the roaring sea. I had met Min a few times before this, but as I stood there and watched, this accident made me realise he needed me and my care.
Now he often goes back to that place, in fact it’s one of his favourites…
It just shows how even a taste of death has never stopped Min going on adventures or looking for those curious golden treasures in the deep deep waters. It seems every horrific thing he faces makes him braver; every hurdle in the way makes him jump higher. Min himself doesn’t see this quality as anything special, being that naïve and modest little jelly that he is.
{ Dog whisperer;
Or maybe not.
It may be his coat or just his personality that makes Min act like a dog. He loves dogs and they love him, he can literally spend hours talking to them, chasing, digging or learning their dog-like ways, you name it.
{ Lonely and lost;
Despite his charming yet derpy outside shell, Min is a lonely bean inside. He tries too hard to please and so loses many important friends and makes bad first impressions. It’s hard to be around him for too long, he has a huge imagination and that childish outlook on life, maybe that’s why he himself prefers dogs.
Benjamin is also a little lost when it comes to knowing who he really is, he spends a bit too much time trying to act like others or match their expectations that he loses his own views. He does his best not to ask himself questions like ‘who is Benjamin really?’ or ‘what’s my meaning in life?’, in fact he’s scared in case he wouldn’t know the answers. It’s a sad and shy side to him that only a lucky few are aware of.
Min's accessory;;
An old pocket watch~
Min was on one of his usual trips, digging around and playing. Nothing prepared him for what he was about to find. Already from far way he could see a gleam in the ground as if a firefly had been trapped in the mud, upside down. It was a bright sunny day as Min rushed over, squinting to see. When he got close he eagerly, but carefully started digging, with a quick flick of his tail cleaning the dirt off now and again just as he had been taught. The gleaming beam became a whole sphere of copper light as his nails accidentally scraped against the glass surface.
It was an ancient, yet beautiful pocket watch with delicate engravings and a rusty color that matched his own coat.
Perfect condition, untouched and left just for him to find it seemed...
He wears it on his tail with some sturdy black string and hasn’t parted with it since; excluding its beauty the watch holds a lot of significance to Min. It's a reminder of his adventures, hopes and dreams, but mostly he wears it to appear smarter. Even though the clock doesn’t work and hasn’t for years Min likes to pretend he's some snooty critic and glance at it every so often as if he has some important business to attend to. It’s also where he got his nickname, Min- (like minute). He thinks it’s quite funny and much less formal than Benjamin.

''This is Endless''
Min likes being alone sometimes-
Here he is watching over the hills,
Thinking of where he will travel to next
And what kind of things he will find there~
Poem;;
Immortal
Tic toc, they said ‘’his time is up’’
And found you in this earthly dump-
Cold voice and face, I’m scared to death,
No shivers pass your night white chest.
One thump and two whines of relief,
They comfort saying you’re asleep,
But I know best and kneel in pain,
Your heart is weak, eyes in a haze.
Who lead you to the trapping sea?
What foolishness let you believe
Your limping legs could fight the waves
You’re strong enough to beat their daze?
‘‘Deep breaths’’ a whisper from behind,
‘‘Just watch’’ they smile ‘‘and give it time’’-
Tic tic, your heart starts like a clock,
Bronze eyelids flick, stiff feet unlock.
Now guilt green eyes look up again,
And your adventure’s just begun.
