Jonas is a shy, timid and somewhat pessimistic top graduate from the Star Corps Academy. He is also somewhat lustful, but quick to be ashamed of his lust. Jonas is the captain of the ship in ''SFTBH''. Jonas is a metaphor for the side of Rivers who was uncertain and upset with the way his rock star life was unfolding, and [[Laurel]] and [[Maria]] represent his relationships with women. | Jonas is a shy, timid and somewhat pessimistic top graduate from the Star Corps Academy.

[[Maria]] being described by | [[Maria]] being described by [[Rivers]] as a stereotypical “bad girl” and [[Laurel]] described as a stereotypical “good girl.” Two different archetypes of women he’d come across in his life. | ||
On [[May 10]], 2126, Jonas took off on the ship [[Betsy|Betsy II]] with shipmates [[Wuan]], [[Dondó]], mechanoid [[M1]], [[Laurel]], and his former lover and ship’s cook [[Maria]]. This event is chronicled in "[[Blast Off!]]". | On [[May 10]], 2126, Jonas took off on the ship [[Betsy|Betsy II]] with shipmates [[Wuan]], [[Dondó]], mechanoid [[M1]], [[Laurel]], and his former lover and ship’s cook [[Maria]]. This event is chronicled in "[[Blast Off!]]". [[Blast Off!]] is [[Jonas]]’s first appearance in the opera, him confessing his woe’s about the mission ahead to his shipmates [[Wuan]] and [[Dondó]]. [[Wuan]] and [[Dondó]] tell him to “Get your head out of your hands!” And to “Think of all the times we’re gonna have!” | ||
Then in | At the end of this song, [[Dondó]] points out [[Maria]] to [[Jonas]], and asks “Wasn’t that your favorite bitch in the academy?” [[Jonas]] retorts back, assuring [[Maria]] is “Actually a good girl.” [[Dondó]] then says “Or at least a cheap ho.” This comment deeply hurts and angers [[Maria]] who lashes out at the men in the song (Who You Callin’ Bitch?) | ||
Then in the song [[You Won’t Get With Me Tonight]] she wants [[Jonas]] to defend her against his friend’s. He complies, feeling like it’s the right thing to do, since they have a complex history, but makes it known that just because he is protecting her, it won’t mean that he will get with her tonight. | |||
Jonas is somewhat promiscuous. He goes to Maria's pod, sniffs glue with her and then has sex with her. This is chronicled in the song "[[Come to My Pod]]". Later, Jonas is embarrassed and flees - illustrating his personality, fear of commitment with a woman he deems “too crazy to settle down with.” When Jonas finally meets Laurel, he falls for her. Jonas also ends up having a daughter with Maria because of their hookup. It is unknown what becomes of Jonas, as ''SFTBH'' was never finished nor released. | Jonas is somewhat promiscuous.
