Leo Anderson/Kudo

Genji Hano ( Father figure )

Leo Anderson/Kudo is apart of the Spirituality Club in his 2-year of Love letter High School. He always carries around energy drinks and other snacks to share if anyone is brave enought to ask.

## **Appearance**

Leo has a curly mop of brown hair that never really seemed to be tame-able. He has chocolate brown eyes but can easily be mistaken as black from far away. He usually ends up with dark bags under his eyes from not getting enough sleep. He has a lighter skin that can get an easy tan in the summer.

He has two percings in each ear, two simple black ones on his left ear and another simple black on his right where he also has a ring. His uniform is worn loosely since he never really bother fixing it.

## **Personality**

When first meeting Leo, he comes of as pretty rude ( Which he kinda is haha ). He is kinda a mix between sarcastic and forward. Hee can make some pretty rude remarks of people. He also ends up being very cold to people who approach him. He does this because when he was younger he was usually around the wrong kind of people, and it's kinda how he thought you should behave.

But if you give him a chance he will warm up slightly and become more "soft" around you. When he is "soft" he instead becomes more of a person you can have deep conversations with, and instead of being rude and sarcastic he becomes more of a goofball trying to make everyone smile.

He is a dare-devil and never backs down from a challenge, which has lead him to a few near death experiences that he doesn't mind sharing if you were to ask.

Even tho he seems confident, he is more insecure about himself. He is sometimes insecure about his body but it is never to extreme. He also isn't good with handeling emotions sometimes, especially when he gets mad since her mother didn't make a great example of how you should act.

## **Backstory**

He was born in Sweden, Stockholm to be exact. Were he lived with his mother ( who is Swedish ) and father ( who is Japanes ) until he was around 7. That was when his mother and father realised that their relationship was falling apart and both mutually agreeing to get a divorce. His father moved back to Japan, leaving Leo and his mother back in Stockholm.

His life growing up was mostly normal, that was until he was 10. That was when the company his mother was working for went bankrupt and since they couldn't pay their workers, they were all fired while the company disapeared. His mother was devestaded at first, and after a few failed attempts she stopped trying to find a job for awhile.

But his life changed, slowly but surely. At first you couldn't notice it, but after a year, there were a few noticeable changes. His mother had started changing as a person, yóu could tell whenever she got mad at you or dissapointed since she no longer contained those emotions as well. She would yell whenever something didn't go her way or whenever someone didn't do exactly as told. She started brining a lot of random men over, keeping him awake with loud chatter, laughter and other noises.\*cough cough\* If you now what I mean \*cough cough\*. She started becoming very manipulative and overly-involved in his life. But being 11 at the time, he didn't realise she was being abusive. So he kept on living like that until he was 15, two year after realising his mothers abusive way of treating him and how he needed to do something about it. So he did the responsible thing and stole her credit card.

With his mother's credit card, he booked a ticket to japan for the same day. The only place were he knew he had family members.

At 11 pm, he was on the airplane. And 14 hours later he arrived at Tokyo, Japan. He booked a hotel room under a fake name, where he stayed for two days, trying to find his father. It took around three monthes for him to find the right person, or well what he could assume was. So with nothing to lose, he went to the adress he found. When he knocked on the door, he was almost certian this wouldn't be the right place, it was to easily found, and what even were the chances? But when the door opened, he saw a man in his late 40s. The man said something in japanesse, which Leo quickly started to explain the situation in english. But the man seemed confused over what he was saying, and introduced himself with pretty bad english as Genji Hano. He explained that the person who lived there before had moved away recently.

Leo had told himself not to get disappointed on the way there. But he couldn't help but shed some tears, which soon turned into a full on crying session right in front of Genji. When he felt someone pat him on the shoulder, he looked up to Genji, who offered him to stay at his house until he found his father. Leo knew not to trust strangers, but his money was running out and he couldn't afford to give up the offer. So he agreed on the offer.

A year later and Leo and Genji had a special bond with eachother. Leo started looking up to him as a father figure more then a random stranger. After all he had offered him a room to live in and food on the plate. Sure there was still a bit of a language barrier. Leo barley able to speak Japanes while Genji wasn't the best at English. But they made it work. And after awhile Leo asked if he could stay with Genji until he turned 18, giving up on his hopes of finding his father after 33 tries.

Genji didn't hesitate to agree, and that was when their father-son relationship really started. Genji helped Leo learn the basics of japanes while Leo taught Genji how he could improve his english. And after a bit of looking at schools, Love letter high school was the first to accept him.

( WIP OC ) Siher/Sihr: One day in class, Leo passed out because of exhaustion from staying up way to late that night. Siher noticed Leo and decided to take notes for him, leaving them on his table when class was over. When Leo found the note after waking up, he got determined to find who ever left it. After figuring out it was Siher who had taken notes for him, he thanked her and asked if she would like something to eat, becoming friends after the meal.
