[Character Name] Leo
[Canon] Pandora Hearts
[Point Taken from Canon] Chapter 47, right after the baww tea party.

[Age] 16
[Gender] Male
[Sexual Orientation] Hmmm, I'd say hetero with a leaning towards bi? xD

[Eye Color] ...no idea, you never really see his eyes. But they're supposedly beautiful, Elliot woobie woobie said so!
[Hair Color] Black
[Height] 163cm
[Other] Not aside from the very obvious hiding of his eyes, I suppose. And the permanent bedhead.
[Clothing] Gah, can't find good images but it'd be this this and this. There's a ribbon tied around his neck that is a little hard to see.

[Background] *Lamely directs you over there for now* Might write something up later, dunno.

[Personality] Spoiler warning for the last two paragraphs. Might write something shorter when I have the time, since the app's section is rather long.

As someone who generally prefers to keep to himself, Leo is most often quiet and cooped up in a corner somewhere. He’s not a fan of crowds or gatherings, content with simply spending time with a few or entertain himself somehow, away from anyone else. As Elliot’s best friend and babysitter servant, he appears in the manga at almost the exact same time, but doesn’t actually speak up until he figures it’s time to stop Elliot from flipping out completely, and before then he’s not even noticed.

He does truly enjoy spending time with people, though. At least on good days.

You could really say he’s almost a bit of a babysitter, in all seriousness; always following Elliot around and making sure he behaves, but he can never really resist throwing in a taunt or two either. He enjoys poking fun at people just to see the reactions, but he does so in a subtle and barely noticeable way so that sometimes it might even slip by completely. And that’s fine; it still amuses him. Or perhaps he just wants them to leave him alone; being weird or rude or boring might make people leave you alone, and maybe he doesn’t even mean to do it sometimes. Old habits die hard and all.

Over anything, though, he prefers being alone with a good book or a piano or Elliot, and as much as he can get fed up with Elliot sometimes he does generally enjoy having him around always, even when reading or playing piano, because his best friend is definitely a special snowflake in this case. Especially because, a lot of the time, Elliot has nothing against sitting quietly and not bothering him terribly much (which is a great plus); sometimes there simply isn’t need for any words,

Out of the two of them, Leo does indeed seem to be the nice one. There is no doubt that he’s not straight out rude like Elliot, but no way is he particularly nice either. He just seems that way when he stops his master from going over the top and explains it to whoever has been a target of Nightray rage. So, when around Elliot, Leo seems nice and polite, though some may notice the bit of snark there is.

This is in fact not how Leo really is. See, him and Elliot work in the way that Elliot’s short temper helps keep Leo calm, but the truth is that Leo has quite the temper himself. Before he became Elliot’s servant and lived in the orphanage named the House of Fianna, the other kids were pretty afraid of him. Not to such a degree that they didn’t even dare get close to him, and Leo does care for them and vice versa and they know it, but still afraid. Leo isn’t fun to catch during one of his real tantrums, because not only does he yell at the top of his lungs, but he throws furniture or just generally use them as weapons. Granted, it’s not all that easy to push him that far.

Not to mention that he’ll probably punch you if you touch his hair, maybe if you tell him to cut it depending on his mood. Also, attempt to actually cut it? Don’t. He’ll (try to) kill you if no one stops him.

No, really, he will. That’s not a figure of speech.

Most of the time he’s in a good mood, though, and as long as Elliot is around there’s not really any big risk that he’ll lose his cool. He’s much more likely to annoy someone else than the other way around, though teasing and mocking may be a way of saying he doesn’t like you. Or that he does like you, but it’s probably more playful then.

However, behind all the smiles and quiet but cheerful attitude, Leo carries a great guilt. He is, pretty much, the cause of four deaths in the Nightray family, because he was the one who gave Elliot the Chain that made this happen. It may have saved Elliot’s life, but it’s still not something he wished for and this definitely weighs heavy on his mind. Especially since Elliot can’t remember anything and to keep him, and them, safe and, uh, sane, Leo needs to go along with what Elliot believes is true and keep what’s really the truth locked in.

Perhaps it’s selfish, perhaps he does it for himself a lot because he doesn’t want to lose Elliot as a friend, but he also thinks it’s best for Elliot to just not remember, to just not know. Elliot is going through enough and he doesn’t need any more burdens. But Leo can never fully forgive himself for any of it.

[Specialties/Abilities] Self-taught at playing piano and damn good at it, he can compose as well. And he knows how to handle a gun. Guess that's about it as far what is canon knowledge.

[Affection] In general, Leo isn't highly fond of anyone being too touchy-touchy, but pushing it far enough for it to actually piss him off would take a bit. Probably. Maybe. It kind of depends on circumstances, and how much he likes you, and his current mood, etc. etc. And don't expect much in return.

...attempts at kisses or groping or anything like that will get you punched no matter any of that, though, unless he's in love with you. You have been warned.

[Fighting] Fight and injure him all you'd like! Killing him is fine but do talk to me first. xD He's not personally so great at fighting, so I'd rather he not end up against someone too strong or anything like that, ahem. But he has wits, at least.

Not that he goes around looking for fights, though. At all. He likes peace and quiet.

[Other Permissions] I'm really fine with anything, even forth walling because he wouldn't believe it anyway, ahahaha. So claiming it to be true is all good and dandy, but showing it somehow? Nah. Aside from that, anything is a go but if you're hesitant just go ahead and ask! But I do so love potential of mind-fuckery and the like.

[Other Facts] ...I'll add stuff if anything comes up.
