Memory (one)

Like all teenagers, Jo struggles a lot with identity and her place in life. While she is fond of the diners' patrons, she feels trapped in the area and feels a sense of powerlessness in her life. This leads her to daydream about visiting other places. She feels chafed at having her life uprooted by her mother's decision to move them to the region. It doesn't help that she lacks any peers her age in the vicinity to interact with. It's these factors that led to her bonding with and befriending Kid. The two shared a prominent moment of empathy while Kid was convincing her to become a hero alongside him. She changes considerably in founding the Local Heroes alongside Kid. Initially, she was hesitant and deferential to her mother, showing a fear in disappointing her. However, by the time her mother discovers the rings, Jo has a newfound confidence thanks to overcoming the various encounters of people wanting the Stones of Power. Being self-empowered now thanks to her experience, she becomes more assertive in her decisions and in remain a hero. However, this frustration would become explictly evident when the Diner is teleported to space. Now formally the leader of the Local Heroes along with their new mission, Jo is forced to deal with a greater sense of responsability and anxiety, toward between her mother's goals of the diner and her and Kid's mission with hero work.. This along with her desire for more independence would lead her to being mentored by Queen Xhan. While she would gain a boost of confidence, it would also enable some of her recklessness. This along with her decision for independence would lead her to neglect her mother's wisdom indirectly, leading her to make a number of mistakes. Eventually, the frustration would drive a wedge between her and her team. Nevertheless, after Krosh's betrayal and Fantos gaining the stones, Jo showed deep remorse and regret her actions, apologized to her friends and family, and proved herself as a competent leader.

In her introductory special short, we discover that she and her mother are not native to the area. After visting Paris for baked goods and trying to conjure a poral back home, she ends up in an urban city block. She ends up telling herself she was thinking of "New Home". This indicates that her mother moving them over to the diner and the surrounding area was actually a recent development. As such, she still subconsciously thinks of her previous living area as home. This also explains her desire to see the world, likely feeling trapped and isolated by her new situation along with the friction with her mother.
