Lea Chan

i had one (1) new fact i wanted to write about her so i have to rewrite her entire bio now

edit: it's (looking at calender) 17th feb 2025 and i have. not rewritten anything. sorry. umm hang on.

• Owns a cafe shop
• Twins with Lene, but around the time they were kids, their mom died and Lea left with their dad.
• Aside from that though, her life, all the way into college, was rather normal and standard. 
• She went into pastry school to become a pastry chef, in the hopes of opening her own cafe someday
• Partway through her degree, Lene attempted to reconnect with her
• Because of Lene's position, Lea always felt pressured to go along with what she said
• Lea was barely able to finish her degree before Lene gifted her a new shop in a high-end, affluential area.
• She felt pressured to accept (and maybe Lene guilted her a bit too), so she moved nearer and began her career
• The shop floundered massively for the first year. Lea felt like a fish out of water, like she didn't belong in the area. 
• The customers were scary, and her employees (recommended by Lene, when Lea was struggling to find help) all but slacked off during work
• (All but one, who she eventually became friends with)
• Eventually, after multiple visits by Lene, Scilla and Nuri, Scilla catches onto the odd relationship between the two sisters. 
• (Lene always complained about how the shop wasn't doing well for some odd, inexplicable reason that she couldn't possibly think of despite all the support she was giving it)
• Scilla finally steps in, and, along with Nuri, takes over from Lene and helps Lea build it up properly (Lene's pet project? no. our pet project)
• During this time, Scilla and Lea work together very closely, eventually forming a relationship.
• Finally, Lea's cafe flourishes, becoming the cafe she had always dreamed of. 
• She also gets married to Scilla
• And yeah. She basically has a very nice, standard life. very stable, very comfy
• (yeah and then that's what she's like at the start of the plot. then the plot throws her into a blender.)
• ---
• personality-wise, Lea is extremely shy. She's an introvert, hates interaction
• Whenever she's in a conversation, it feels very practiced. She engages, does the actions, asks questions, and attempts to make it feel natural
• this is exhausting to her, so she tries to avoid it.
• She likes being alone (or maybe she's used to being lonely) and can be quite self-sufficient at times
• She's just kind, empathetic, but extremely quiet
• Because she's always around Lene, Scilla and Nuri, a part of her feels extremely self-concious about her own achievements, like she doesn't even deserve to be here
• She's also quite calm when discovering something new. The other three expose her to a lot of interesting events, so normal life just feels so mundane. Nothing really surprises her anymore.
