Jessica is incredible, whether it's her selflessness or her ingenuity. However, she is exceedingly different—or rather, unique—compared to the rest of the throng, making her appear awkward to the show's viewers.

Yes, Jessica is very understanding and caring, but she also pokes her nose into everything. She believes she is the best, and her micromanagement can be annoying at times. Not only that, but Jessica may get overly emotional about things, which is reflected in her sensitive character.

But who isn't a little odd? Who said we were all perfect? Jessica's quirky, adorable, and unique personality makes her fans adore her, and she's perfect just the way she is. Read about another compelling character in Kai Parker's quotes.
