 "Clever as the devil, twice as pretty" 

(copy and pasted from a doc alsgshdsj fix later, has bullet points at the bottom)

Story: A pale imitation of his own father, Leon has never been able to live up to his expectations. Despite having all of the luxuries life could afford him, he was discontent and lonely. That was, until he met Vincent. Vincent was the only person to genuinely care about Leon, and so the walls Leon built up crumbled down to make way for a meaningful friendship and blossoming romance. They had mutual feelings for each other, but never realized it until it was too late. During this time, Leon’s resentment towards his father began to grow and fester as he witnessed him trying to manipulate Vincent. Leon became distant, and had a falling out with Vincent and his family after a heated argument with his father. He was cast aside by his family (a fact unbeknownst to Vincent, who thought he ran away without a second thought). Now, he owns a bar named Snake Eyes, and hides the burden of his past with fabricated confidence.

Personality: His current demeanor is a complete 180 from how he acted before his fallout (quiet, overly cordial). He’s stubborn, sarcastic, and comes off as a bit pretentious. He’s incredibly charismatic, and uses his wittiness to swindle people out of their money. basically an emotionally repressed pretty boy

Note: The spade on his cheek is a stick and poke tattoo he did right around the time he had an argument with his dad, as an act of rebellion. He slightly regrets it now because it just reminds him of what happened, but he wears it anyway.


Can be drawn with:

Vincent : (Childhood friends to enemies to lovers) Just as stubborn as Leon and sees right through his bullshit. They both care deeply about each other, but are too dense to see it and too scared to express it. Leon’s in that stage of development where he thinks that the best way to deal with liking someone is pretending like you hate them because vulnerability is death (teases the hell out of Vincent), but gets incredibly flustered whenever Vincent makes retorts back (cannot take what he dishes out). He instantly loses all of his charisma and any ability to smooth talk around him. That doesn’t stop him from trying, though.

Leocent Playlist

(if you do choose to draw them, i would love some art of them hesitantly expressing affection for each other, go nuts and make it cute and sappy)

Venom : (Best friends) After his fallout, Leon was aimless, and had no idea what to do with himself. Venom knew what it felt like to be alone and isolated, so he offered to help Leon get back up on his feet. Leon was hesitant, but ever since then they’ve treated each other like family. They’re the definition of “boys will be boys”, and combined they have one brain cell.

(if you choose to draw them, feel free to draw them goofing off playing a board game or doing something silly)

V : (Friends) They’re not nearly as close as they would like to be, but they hang out every now and then. V will drop by Leon’s bar to gossip and get on Leon’s case about Vincent, and Leon will retort with teasing her about her crush, Chiara (yet to draw her yet lmfao).

Afforded nearly all the luxuries had to offer, and still fell short of his father’s legacy. Leon holds himself to nearly impossible standards because of external pressure to live up to his family’s name.

• He’s a blue blood, born in an affluent family
• Very outspoken and charismatic, a natural sweet-talker
• Stubborn as hell
• Asshole with a heart of gold
• Hides his feelings by deflecting them with an attitude that portrays a (false) sense of grandeur and self aggrandizing jokes
• basically an emotionally repressed pretty boy
• he was the first to catch feelings because Vincent was the first person to show him genuine warmth
• Overwhelmingly sappy
• He’s still in that stage of development where he thinks that the best way to deal with liking someone is pretending like you hate them because vulnerability is death (teases the hell out of Vincent)
