Teobaldo Leonhearts | LiEat

[personal profile] lienhearts 2017-10-11 06:17 pm (UTC)(link)
PLAYER: Dani (Tatsuma-mun/[plurk.com profile] danidanidanica)
CHARACTER: Teobaldo Leonhearts
CANON: LiEat

AU NAME: Theodore Leonhardt
AU AGE: 23
AU OCCUPATION: Actor
BLURB: Canonically, a con man on the run after ditching out on his old and extremely powerful gang. He changes his name and appearance in each town and lives a life taking on odd jobs, info brokering, and scamming people out of cash. He's also the accidental parental figure of a young dragon girl, oops.

AU:
-Child actor all grown up! He's currently playing one of the main characters in some ongoing TV drama that takes place in Recollé in which everyone's hooking up with everyone else and characters get shuffled around as actors get involved in scandals, etc. (Think Grey's Anatomy.) He plays the cute, naive newbie.
-His first television role; he's done a lot of movies from ages 12 onwards though so his name is pretty recognizable! His acting name, anyway. He goes under an acting name and has ever since he was a little kid (It was probably his favorite pretendy OC because he's a nerd.) Name to be determined.
-When he was very young his parents adopted some foster kids into the family; unfortunately when his parents died in an accident, his aunt and uncle were only willing to take him in, so said siblings got shuffled back into the foster care system. He has no idea what happened to them but he still feels guilty as he'd regarded them as his actual siblings with all the protective instincts that comes with that.
-He proooobably maintains a lot of social media accounts with his acting persona. He doesn't officially model but he's known for his eccentric styles with a lot of hair dyes/bleaching and styling and fashions and such.
-He actually studies at Recollé University under his real name and goes incognito to do so. He's in finance because his aunt and uncle blew most of the money he made while he was in their care, so now he's determined to make All The Muns and keep them. To do so he usually goes around in very plain clothes and consistent dirty blonde hair. He's also a huge grumpy butt to try to interact with.
-He's also not originally from Recollé, he moved here for the TV gig within the past year or so, so there's a far less chance that people know him on a personal level from prior to that.

LOOKING FOR:

-Long lost siblings! He was 12 when his parents died so if anyone wants to have their orphan have been his sibling for a few years, they'd be 11 years older now.
-Fellow actors! It's the type of show where characters are added or written out as needed, so if people want their characters to be in on this gig just let me know! I figure it'd be pretty fast and loose with a lot of room for people to invent new developments on the spot if it comes up (yes, your character sure did just deal with a traumatic incident involving ten rubber chickens, a golden retriever, and an airhorn, why not). It's a ~*drama*~ but it probably sounds ridiculous to anyone who's not really into it.
-Fellow classmates! He's far less charming when he's running around incognito, but he's a good sort for banter if someone really obnoxiously befriends him.
-Kids to... big bro?? He's fairly resistant to the idea of parenting or anything but he does have a soft spot for kids. He's not necessarily nice about it, but he'll look out for younger folks who seem like they could use it.

OPTIONAL ENABLE ME: nah

As a note I'm not sure if I'll be able to make it this round, so this miiiight end up being a next round thing, but I'm gonna give it a shot anyway /o/

Ok but only if we can have a back and forth in which this new guy around pings her as suspiciously familiar for some reason, but it couldn't be, but hmmmm!

sounds like a beautiful friendship waiting to happen
digthefuzz: (watch | totally cool)

[personal profile] digthefuzz 2017-10-11 10:52 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh snap, should he and Kurt know each other through actor circles
lienhearts: ([Hal] I just started to)

[personal profile] lienhearts 2017-10-12 02:25 am (UTC)(link)
Yesss

How pleasant he is to work with probably corresponds directly with how much he is Getting Paid for the job, so depending on how they know of each other Kurt might actually have some stories to tell :3c
digthefuzz: (watch | nervous laughter)

[personal profile] digthefuzz 2017-10-12 01:14 pm (UTC)(link)
I SEE! Would he have been able to do a guest appearance on Heckbusters? Or maybe Kurt could have done some kind of guest appearance or cameo on his show, who knows
lienhearts: ([Sparkle] I don't know how to word it)

[personal profile] lienhearts 2017-10-13 05:24 pm (UTC)(link)
Oooh, I'm gonna say he totally did a cameo on Heckbusters and did a lot of schmoozing to win points with the director/execs but was otherwise pretty blatantly uninterested in interacting with the other actors. His acting was on point, but he's faaaaar from the friendliest guy to work with.

He's in it for the muns, man '-'b
digthefuzz: (watch | nervous laughter)

[personal profile] digthefuzz 2017-10-15 06:24 am (UTC)(link)
Bwahaha yes good, sounds legit! Kurt will just sideye him at first...

The muns? But what did the mundanes ever do-
lienhearts: ([Sparkle] I don't know how to word it)

[personal profile] lienhearts 2017-10-15 09:57 pm (UTC)(link)
This is the correct reaction to Theo to have honestly, he's kind of an ass...

But yay, sounds good ♪

i have a former child star friend!!! nazuna didn't quite make it out and continue acting but they could've definitely known each other ouo
lienhearts: ([Sparkle] I don't know how to word it)

[personal profile] lienhearts 2017-10-13 05:27 pm (UTC)(link)
Ahhh that sounds good 'w' He probably started using his stage name at a young age because he's absolutely the type of dork who was like "I want to be known by my cool OC name credit me as this!!!" and now he's still stuck with it and all of the regrets that come of being a twelve year old that was permitted to be credited under a stupid name, smh

If they run into each other again though, Nazuna can notice that his actor persona is much more pleasant than when he was a kid! He was a lot more sullen back then even if he was good at the actual acting part.
pronounces: to paydirt (10.)

[personal profile] pronounces 2017-10-14 01:05 pm (UTC)(link)
that is so cute fnsdkhjsdfh oh my god. nazuna can still call him by his stage name when they meet up again, he'd be delighted.

IT DEPENDS ON HOW YOUNG, but nazuna was definitely not...great...towards the end of his childhood career so big mood, man. he had a really shit manager and then got out of it so it'd be great to reunite!!! and see the actual person for both of them instead of just... stage personas
lienhearts: ([Neutral] From the scrapes)

[personal profile] lienhearts 2017-10-14 09:33 pm (UTC)(link)
HE CONTINUES TO USE THE STAGE NAME TO KEEP HIS WORK LIFE AND PERSONAL LIFE SEPARATE BUT ALSO... THIS MIGHT HAVE BEEN THE BIGGEST MISTAKE IN ALL HIS EXISTENCE HHHH

About how old was Nazuna when he left the business? o: I figure Theo started getting into bigger productions around 12 and onwards which is also around when his parents died and Not Great for him as a result, haaah. It'd be cool if they could meet up and Nazuna got a dose of both the friendly stage persona and the much brattier real self, hahaha
pronounces: (32.)

[personal profile] pronounces 2017-10-16 02:29 am (UTC)(link)
he was 18!!! pretty much the minute he was old enough to make his own decisions he was Gone lol. BUT YAY, NOT GREAT BUDDIES..... it looks like theo is two years older than him so he might have seen him as a figure to look up to at first? he started when he was like 8 so.

what a cutie tho, i definitely want this to happen. theochin, tell your niichan all about your life as a successful actor ok ★
lienhearts: ([Hal] I just started to)

[personal profile] lienhearts 2017-10-16 03:32 am (UTC)(link)
Ooooh I see, I see! So I've decided his stage name is totally Kestrel Blade because he is a Huge Dork, please do not hesitate to make this cutesy, his dignity is nonexistent anyway ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ

He also would have been around to see Theo take on his more pleasant actor persona on the odd occasions in which they met up, going from the sullen kid who kinda hates everything because his parents are dead and his siblings are gone to Smiley McGee making friends with execs please give him jobs and money

I thiiiiink it'd be normally pretty difficult to tell his identity when he's going around incognito since it's so different from his appearance and presentation as Kestrel Blade but since Nazuna knew him when he was a sullen child and he is in fact still kind of a grouch when he's not pretending otherwise, Nazuna might actually clue in sooner than most other people o:

But also!! Since Nazuna's younger than him and they do have that connection from his acting days, he might also help lowkey look out for him still because... the big brother instinct in this guy is Too Strong. Whether or not that extended in any way to their acting days is up to you, Theo wouldn't have stuck his neck out too much but he's the type who definitely tries to help people in subtle ways that they aren't necessarily going to notice, like keeping in touch to vent to about shitty manager things or whatever.
