## **Relationships**

### **The Eight Flames**

#### Hemlock

Cleo seems to love and respect Hemlock, even calling her "Auntie Hemlock" although Hemlock doesn't seem to return the sentiment. However, Hemlock does seem quite downed by Cleo's death, believing she was more misunderstood than evil.

#### Blake

It's been mentioned by Blake that they are usually hanging out and have an ongoing drinking competition together. Later on, Hemlock tells the Crew that her and Blake were dating and cared very deeply about each other.

#### Valentine

Cleo was likely also afraid of Valentine, as Blake and Hemlock were.

#### V

Not much is known of their relationship, except for the fact that, as the leader of the organization, the V is her boss.

### **Devil's Luck Pirates**

Initially, Cleo and the Crew made a deal to head to G-4 together. However, William, Verona, Ragnar, Duros and Pearl found an alternative way in by stowing away on a Marine ship. As a result, Cleo hates the Crew for abandoning her at Clown Island. Also, even though they did not know if she participated in Valentine's raid, they immediately assumed that Cleo was the one that killed Florence. They were right, but they still just used that as an extra reason to kill her.

#### William

Loves William's card tricks, but doesn't seem to recognize his strength. Hates him for lying to her. William hated her enough that when given the opportunity to find and attack Hemlock in a battle, an adversary that was more dangerous due to her stealth, poisoned dagger, and control over a snake that he was well acquainted with, he instead went out of his way to drill around to attack Cleo.

#### Verona

Hates him for lying to her. He hates her for killing Rocky, who he seemed more attached to than Florence.

#### Duros

Hates him for lying to her. He tried to calm her down with candy, but she refused.

#### Pearl

From their very first meeting, Pearl was never fond of Cleo. She shows her no respect or common courtesy even though when they met Pearl was incredibly injured. When the entire crew starts attacking Cleo out of pure hatred in Episode 22, Pearl walks in confidently, looking ready to put an end to the misery having to hear her awful voice. She also expresses rare, borderline sadistic glee at the prospect of getting to kill Cleo herself.

#### Gravy

Cleo appears to like Gravy, but Gravy seems to find her very annoying. He was sad to hear of Cleo's death.

#### Louis Le'cloque

Louis loves Cleo, but Cleo doesn't care about him. When she was on the verge of death Louis couldn't help but simp over his beloved e girl, he starts walking over to his girl and saying he can save her and use his devil fruit to rewind her severe wound. Cleo starts to pretend to replicate his feelings and that she loves him but after he fell for her charms and he heals Cleo but doesn't do great amount of regeneration of her health she reveals her true feeling of complete uncaring towards Louis, and dumps him. this causing Louis to spiral into a depression and saying that this day is the worst day of his life.

## **History**

She was likely taken in by the Eighth Flame as a child like the other Flames. At some point, she started a relationship with her fellow flame, Blake. After learning about the circumstances of her death, Blake's relationship with the crew and the candles soured. This allowed Jester to turn him towards Blue Blood. Blake would later fight the Devil's Luck Pirates in Blue Blood's kingdom, severely wounding them. These wounds were great enough that Ragnar felt forced to resort to using blue blood in order to defeat Blue Blood. It could therefore be argued that Cleo's death indirectly lead to both Blake and Ragnar becoming addicted to blue blood.

Cleo's recollection would later be summoned by Myria to fight the crew, doing little damage and being killed offhandedly by Ragnar.

## **Trivia**

* When combined, the names of Cleo and her cat, Patty, reference the ancient Egyptian pharaoh Cleopatra.
* Cleo is the first female that Louis simped over
* Given her eyes, ears, and claws, she could have been a half-mink.
* Cleo and Pearl's animosity could be a reference to the mythological rivalry between tigers and dragons
* Her cat shares its name with a chef in the East Blue. He would be around 7 years old at this time.
* Her verbal tic of "Nyah Nyah, Pow Pow" consists of both the Japanese onomatopoeia for a cat and an elephant.
* Rustage disagreed with this post saying Cleo would be Japanese if she was in real life. Instead saying that she would be a weeby girl from California.
* Cleo is the first character to permanently kill a member of the Devil's Luck Pirates. Marrow killed Atom, but Atom did not officially join them. The only other person to satisfy this criteria was Blue Blood
