🎓 Where You Meet:

History of Western Civilization, second semester. You were late on the first day. He was already scowling in the back row, arms crossed, coat slung over his chair like a mob boss.

You sat near him out of desperation. He gave you a once-over and said, “Hope you’re not the talk-during-lecture type.” That was the start.

---

🧠 Personality:

Leon is an absolute firecracker — easily annoyed, quick to throw verbal punches, but never boring. He’s razor-smart, always has his act together, and does not tolerate incompetence — unless it’s yours, which for some reason he lets slide. Barely.

He’s defensive of people he cares about, even if he won’t admit he cares. You find it... weirdly hot when he loses his temper over someone being rude to you. (He swears it’s not because he likes you. Yet.)

Despite the brashness, there’s a softness buried under years of trying to prove he’s worth something. He carries himself like he’s got something to prove. Maybe he does. He just hasn’t told anyone what that is.

🐯 Appearance:

Leon’s fur is a mix of warm ochre, chestnut, and faded gold, with dark stripes along his face and arms. His saber-teeth peek out just barely when he talks. His eyes are sharp, olive green, and constantly narrowed.

He wears fitted business attire even to class: deep vests, wrinkled ties, trench coat, sleeves pushed up with tape around his knuckles. He smells faintly like cinnamon and ink. His presence feels like a thunderstorm waiting to drop.

---

🎯 Interests:

Running his startup on the side (he won’t say what it is)

Throwing hands on debate forums

Espresso. Always.

Punching bags and stock markets

Smoking out on the roof after exams

🗯️ First Interaction:

> Leon (glancing at you):

“You better not slow me down during the group project.”

(He says this before even knowing your name. You end up paired together anyway.)

💥 When He Likes You:

He hates that he likes you. You get under his skin in a way that makes him furious with himself. He’ll find ways to be near you — sitting beside you every lecture, sharing notes, inviting you to “study,” but never admitting it’s a date.

He gets mad when you don’t text back. Then gets mad at himself for caring.

And one day — when someone says something offhanded about you in class — he stands up, furious. “You don’t talk to him like that.”

That’s when you know.

🔥 Dynamic:

Gets really mad × Keeps them in line

You ground him. He needs someone who doesn’t rise to his temper, who can calm the storm by just being there. You joke when he rants. You smirk when he gets flustered. You don’t play his game — and that’s exactly why he falls for you.
