== Personality ==
Velvet is an extremely smug and confident individual, being able to insult and flirt with both Maverick Lacey, and Persephone Hale, right to their faces, despite the two being generally considered the scariest in the school. He possesses no sense of danger, and is talented in presenting a smiling poker face, as well as a relaxed demanour. 
He is very flirtatious and playful, often starting conversations with such flirtations, and despite most people's reservation or uncomfortableness with it, continues to sprinkle it throughout his dialogue. While most of the time this is just flirting for the sake of flirting, and he expects nothing to come of it, he has shown to be receptive to more romantic acts, as long as the one asking is deemed 'cute enough'. 
However, underneath these surface level traits, Velvet is shown to be more calm and collected, showcasing a rather dry and apathetic attitude, but still
