ABILITIES: Martial arts skills; specifically, Muay Thai.
PERSONALITY:
HAHAHAHA ok. Uh. He's not actually as gay-looking as you'd expect. He's not really prissy or feminine or anything, and definitely looks like he works out a lot or trains in martial arts -- at first glance, you'd probably just put him down as a street-punk. You know the type I'm talking about: all black, combat boots, what-was-once-a-mohawk that he's too lazy to spike. The kind that get into gang wars and beat each other up with pipes, the kind that would give attitude to Satan himself. Yeah. Not really one of those nice guys next door. At all.
But then he starts moving. Oh god. And walking around. Oh god squared. And talking. And then the gay shines through like a thousand-watt rainbow. He points at things with his pinkies. Delicately. He likes touching people a little bit too much. Especially men. In somewhat inappropriate places. If his voice were only an octave higher, he could probably voice-act a valley girl pretty well. Seriously. Like, you can almost see the pink hearts flying around.
Other than that, though -- well, okay, he's gay, but seriously, he's NOT as stereotypical as everyone makes him out to be. That whole flaming airheaded gay man thing -- well, okay, he does all that, too. The giggling, the lisping, the talking like a girl, the squeeing over men, the flirting, the overdone cheeriness, the everything -- whatever, he's got the moves down. Drop him in a gay nightclub and he'd be set to go. He'd probably be the star of the show.
But in reality, it's not as simple as he acts flaming because he's gay. Some of the time, he's just doing it to piss people off. 'Cause it's pretty funny how they react to him perving on them, freaking out and running away (especially the guys that think they're fearless and oh-so-masculine). And in reality, some of the time, he's just doing it because all the flirting and teasing and acting happy does make him happy. It's fun, somewhat habitual, a distraction from everyone else being so dead serious all the time (Xanxus? Squalo? Levi? Pleasant conversation? What's that?). And of course, rarely, he's serious himself (well, he is gay... right?). But it's hard to tell when that is unless he outright tells you, which he usually never will.
He's usually not serious about anything anyway -- or at least, he doesn't act it, much. People's insults slide off his back, and it takes a hell of a lot to get him to actually get angry about anything (for example: all the Varia calling him an annoying fag? They don't really mean it, it's a nickname of love~). I mean, yeah, of course he knows they mean it, yeah, so maybe people laugh, but who cares? The way Lussuria deals with life is by being fabulous~ and acting like everyone's his friend -- even though it means a certain amount of willful ignorance, to keep up that kind of self-esteem. But hey, it beats getting pissy and bitchy like the others, right?
Then again, he's not exactly all rainbows and flowers and sunshine. Well, maybe the sunshine, because sunshine can kill you, right? He could probably flounce in, beat most people to death, then flounce back out, smiling the whole time. And if the whole flaming thing adds insult to injury? That's just a plus. ♥
HISTORY:
- Wasn't born into the mafia.
- Loved fighting and getting into fights ever since he was little. You feel most alive in the ring, after all ~ ♥
- Hit puberty, realized he was totally gay. Hid it for a few months, then went what the hell, and decided to be as gay as possible. No use holding back, and anyone that he didn't like bothering him about it, he could just beat down, right?
- Too many fights, too many police arrests -- his parents disowned him when he was 17. He hung out with the local gangs for survival: you can still see that in the sort of "punk" way he dresses and wears his hair.
- Took to crime for a year or two. Mugging people, mostly. Sometimes breaking into a few houses. A few private hit jobs. Gave that up when he nearly got shot up by a mafia group (of course, it's not like he went down easy).
- Decided to join up with them when they gave him the choice.
- Saw Xanxus. Fell in love. ♥ Okay, not really. But when asked/ordered to join the Varia, Lussuria didn't say no. The hot boss thing was a plus.
- Present day.
WRITING SAMPLE:
Oh~ ♥
The explosion is like a dream come true.
And even better, they've got all the bodies neatly arranged for him in the coma center -- how nice of them to collect them for him!
He's walking around looking at them right now, stopping every so often to take a closer look -- and maybe poke and prod and molest a bit when nobody's looking -- a nice one here, a nice one there, so many nice-looking bodies around! Especially of those child-soldiers they had so many of, back during the war. Nice and neat and compact with such streamlined muscles ~ No one would notice if one of them mysteriously went missing, right? Or maybe two, or three, or four...
Visiting the coma center (and maybe leaving with a patient or two)'s totally become his new favorite hobby.
Too bad Boss and the others get mad if he keeps them for more than a day, so he's always got to dump them when he's done. And too bad he's still got jobs to do and people to kill, or he'd spend way more time at the hospital than he does now. And too bad he can't find the perfect one anywhere -- the perfect body, that is. Out of over a million comatose people, you'd think one would be exactly his type, but no, just a bunch that are sort of close...
Oh, and there goes his cell phone again. Text from the Boss, surprise: some unwanted people on their turf -- get rid of them, now. Figures, he'd get called out now, and just when he's just gotten his hair dyed, too -- blood is so bad for that.
But a job's a job, and Lussuria sighs and heads out of the coma center, postponing his quest for the perfect body for now.
Oh well.
He figures he'll find it someday, anyway... ♥
