I am currently throwing random Jean hcs at the wall to see what sticks, what do you think about Jean being the guy who always catches whatever illness is going around? You would think it'd be Harry, but no, it's Jean, he's depressed, buff yet dehydrated etc and Pale help him if somebody coughs in his general direction. He's the guy that gets warned about catching a cold due to wind, rain or snow, etc and then it actually happens. Not sure if this one's a winner or not, thoughts?

(yay jeanlore question!!! :3)

Never thought about it before but what you say makes sense to me! Being depressed, probably troubles sleeping, and all, I guess that could make him vulnerable to any little virus or bacteria, though I would see him a the kind of a person who just takes painkillers&antypyretics and tries to keep up with his normal routine (somebody put him to bed please) and doesn’t even want to hear that he should get a rest unless he’s forced to (not sure what would be enough for him to feel forced though. Maybe if he would be they won’t let him in to the precinct cause they don’t need all the officers to fall ill, but I doubt anybody would give enough shit, honestly…)

Or! I totally see him as someone who doesn’t fall ill very seriously (so the part with drugging himself up and staying on tracks still checks out), but to this never lets himself cure properly so after cold he catches he keeps coughing around for two or three months because.

And he’s totally allergic to pollen. Can’t change my mind.
