◎ Is the character a hacker and/or do they have a sixth-sense? Jensen is a hacker. More deets go here.

◎ Personality:

laidback, meta, smart/can think on his feet, loyal, cannot flirt to save his life, goofy, random information, scatterbrain tendencies, hi I'm jensen and I am 5.

"I used to be good at his. Robert di Niro who?"

"Face down or I'll make your heart stop beating with my mind."

"Oh, it's my niece's soccer team, 8 and under. I checked their scores online, and I—"

"So... do you have any hobbies?"

"I think it's a cool name. Makes you sound like a pirate!"

Being the youngest in the team, Jensen is probably the most laid-back among the five. He finds the time to make inappropriate comments or random trivia just to lighten the mood. This sometimes leads to the the rest of the team making fun of him or asking him not to repeat them ever again. His jokes even stoop down to your momma jokes when he sees the chance to slip one in. This laid-back attitude is even seen with the way he carries himself and how he dresses. More often than not, he's seen in a printed t-shirt and some jeans while the others present themselves better and less casual than Jensen.

Jensen cannot flirt to save his life. Try as he might, he will almost always be turned down. This may come from the fact that he seems to aim too high and try to talk to girls who are definitely out of his league. Even if he knows it he'll still give a go at it anyway, just to see if maybe this time he'll be able to get it right. However, he does know when to call it quits. A good example of this is when he tried to make a move on Aisha by asking what her hobbies were. She promptly replied that she collected human ears as a child. For a moment, it looks like he was about to try one last time, but he backs down knowing that the odds were stacked against him. And that Aisha was just a woman who shouldn't be messed with.

He's a motormouth. He likes to talk and listen to himself talk. Jensen isn't an ego maniac though, it's just that he doesn't seem to know when to stop talking at times. This lands him in some bad situations at times but it could also work to his advantage. When he starts, he continues going on which helps serve as a diversionary tactic until back-up arrives. He utilizes this to the best of his capabilities, especially when he steals the algorithm from the Goliath headquarters. This also shows how Jensen is quite the storyteller, making up some fake background about him being a dangerous telekinetic on the spot and under extreme pressure.

Jensen has some scatter brain tendencies, sometimes going off on random tangents during conversations. He even goes as far as to comment that a disagreement Roque and Clay had at one point reminded him of his parents. The best example of him being scatter brained though was when the team stormed into Clay's room to warn him that Aisha was Al-Fadhil's daughter. While the rest were armed and ready to shot Aisha, Jensen stood in between then with his hands up in the air. Why did he do this? Because he had forgotten his gun in the truck outside. He even makes conversation with Pooch before Aisha takes action and shoots him in the arm to shut him up.

Despite all of that, Jensen knows when to be serious (most of the time) and how to do get the job done. He's actually a really smart guy who can think on his toes when he gets stuck in tough situations. As the hacker in the group, he's knowledgeable about computers and how they work proving that he's got the brains to back him up with that. He's a smart guy but he would much rather do that kind of hard thinking only when it is absolutely necessary. Otherwise, he'll just poke fun at the others.

He is also very loyal to the others and wouldn't even think betraying any of them. Clay, Pooch, Cougar, and at one point Roque are probably the closest thing to what he would consider a family having to stick with them for so long, especially when the CIA still considered the five of them killed in action.
