—"Historical Friction" |
"Jamie" is a character who made his debut in the episode "Cheeseburger Backpack" and had his first major role in "Love Letters". His second was in "Historical Friction".
Description
Jamie is a good-natured mailman that was first seen delivering Steven's Cheeseburger Backpack in the episode "Cheeseburger Backpack". His uniform consists of a light blue shirt with an envelope embroidered on both sleeves, a white t-shirt beneath it, slate blue shorts, a messenger satchel with an envelope embroidered on its flap, and a pith helmet. He also wears a pair of white socks under a pair of red shoes with white lining. Both his satchel and the sleeves of his shirt have a logo of an envelope emblazoned on them. He has a prominent nose, thick eyebrows, thick brown hair, and soft-black eyes.
In the episode "Historical Friction", Jamie changes into a casual outfit consisting of a black v-neck shirt and brown-green pants. His costume for his role in the play is a red turtleneck and a small white sailor hat.
Personality
Jamie is easygoing, friendly, kind, and is (mostly) dedicated to his job. While he takes his duties seriously, his real dream is to be an actor. He considers himself a thespian, likes Shakespearean poetry, and has a flare for the dramatic (so much so that he and others refer to his bouts of overacting as being in "the drama zone"). He is very sensitive at times and does not take rejection well. His failed attempts to make it big in Kansas were particularly difficult for him to deal with.
Jamie is a true romantic and believes in love at first sight. When Garnet rejected his advances, he was heartbroken, and chose to give up the Beach House route so as to not have to face her again.

Abilities

You make a very convincing lovesick fool. You convinced these children, you even convinced yourself. You're a fantastic actor. |

—Garnet, "Love Letters" |
Jamie is an ambitious but inexperienced actor. While he does not have the skill set of a movie star, facing repeated rejection in Kansas, he is able to act multiple roles at the same time. His first play, Beach City or Bust: The Tale of William Dewey, was well received by its audience.
Jamie also shows promise in technical theater, being able to build, paint, and rig complex set pieces with only Steven to help, and within such a short range of time. He is also able to proficiently critique a story, as he gave valid reasons on why the first draft of The Tale of William Dewey would not do well, stating that the story's main character was too perfect and was not believable. When Steven gave him a revised version written by Pearl, Jamie highly praised it and ironically/accurately stated that it seemed like it was written by someone who witnessed the events. He becomes Lead Director of Beach City Community Theater after the play was performed by Steven and him.
In "Historical Friction", he is shown to make shadow puppets of a dolphin and a face (and more) using his hands.
Relationships
Steven
Jamie and Steven are friends who share a normal, healthy relationship. Their interactions are cheerful and friendly, seeming glad to see each other. They seem to view each other positively. While understanding Garnet's relationship status, Steven is concerned for Jamie's feelings and emotional well-being during the events of "Love Letters". For the longest time, Jamie seemed to be the only mail-person who knew where Steven lived; all mail meant for Steven stopped for as long as Jamie was away until Barbara located Steven's home. Jamie was glad that Steven decided to join his play in "Historical Friction" since no one else showed up and gives Steven the leading role of William Dewey. Steven really takes to heart about Jamie's critique of the perfection of William Dewey's character and encourages him to use the revised version of the play.
Barbara Miller
Barbara is known to be his fellow mail carrier and possible superior. While she yells at him if he doesn't get signatures, she does not speak ill-will of him and was even seen compassionate towards him after his "emotions were destroyed." as she put it.
Connie
Jamie and Connie have only met relatively recently. Still, as he put it, a "friend of Steven's is a friend of his". Like Steven, Connie is moved by Jamie's heartfelt love letter and seeks to help him through the impending rejection as smoothly as possible.
Garnet
When Jamie met Garnet in "Love Letters", he instantly developed a crush on her. He was devastated when she spurned him. His crush went away after having a talk with Garnet about love. Her practical advice helped set him straight, and she recommended he start small and make his debut in local theater as a positive outlet for his genuine talent. He eventually does, doing his first play in the episode "Historical Friction" and afterwards becoming Lead Director of Beach City Community Theater.
