@Inertia

It was the first day in 2 weeks since Liatris had last been home, and silence had filled his room as he slowly poked his head out from beneath the wrinkles of his charcoal sheets, looking around his room aimlessly before rolling onto his back. Staring up at the ceiling, Liatris took in the atmosphere of his room and found a foreign feeling which had crept up to his sudden realization. For once in his life, the male had felt relaxation and while it was something common amongst others, this sort of feeling was rather rare for the youngest Edmond. Relaxation had been something he had to take by force from his father (like running away for a good week or two after an infiltration), or often times this state of peace had simply been given as a sort of reward after succeeding in a task being given by his father.

But while peace and relaxation was a sort of foreign concept to the young man, One thing which often stood by his side like another set of siblings was chaos and his old friend, loneliness. Despite the peculiar serenity of silence, Liatris found the feeling of waking up completely alone and unharmed quite relatable to those despicable times of sleeping with a higher up in exchange for secrets to give to his father. The ‘givers’ slept with him for the night, and sometimes left by morning to attend business with whoever the more powerful connections may be. The only difference about this current situation was that he slept with no one however, and Liatris was in his own bed. Huh, another weird feeling that he was in his own bed. Liatris had been used to being pampered by others, even if it was just for one night, just the thought of that alone made him feel disappointed in his current location: Home. The male slowly crawled out of his bed--Releasing a groan as he walked out his room in his briefs to take a trip to the bathroom down the hall. In the process, the young Edmond caught the scent of breakfast still lingering in the air as noises echoed from downstairs. He sneered to himself with quick satisfaction, before walking into the bathroom to brush his teeth.

Whenever Liatris was home, he often avoided any sort of conversation with his father. For starters and being a typical late-teen; He found Johnny’s pestering behavior of business first quite irritating in the morning. Especially when Liatris’ role required actual, physical attention. Nonetheless he never ceased to do as he was told in silence and the male made his way into the kitchen, walking down each step of the stairs with his own heavy steps. One could assume that Liatris was deliberately stomping to make his presence known, he wanted whoever was home to give him their attention no matter how small. Another assumption could also be that he probably wanted to piss off his parents for stomping unnecessarily, or he himself was being a brat over something in particular that was important to him personally. The voices drew louder as Liatris came closer to the end of the stairs, and stopped.

A gasp was heard. “Well if it isn’t one of our lovely boys~” His mother purred as she sat down in a seat. Liatris merely sneered in response quietly as he stood, leaning his arm against the wall as he continued to stand at the end of the stairs, eyeing his family. “Morning, kiddo.” His father piped up, piercing over his shoulder as his back leaned against the counter. “Look at that, no bruises & bitemarks, and finally back from his little vacation….Gonna join us?” He nodded his head as an invitation to the conversation and Liatris, still silent, approached his mother, seeing waffle stacks behind her and grabbing the plate. “Morning mom.” He grinned, before looking at his older brother, Devan. “Big brother~” He said in an amused tone, not yet acknowledging his father quite completely.

And here comes the trouble.
The silent bitch fit.

Liatris poured syrup onto his waffles, adding a bunch of sweets such as 2 scoops of ice cream, and whip cream with some chocolate syrup as well. He handed each condiment to his father in order to have him put it back instead and leaned over the counter on his elbow, beginning to eat his late breakfast as he listened in on this ‘meeting’ quietly.

“Now, there are roses to be discovered and obtained. But they aren’t necessarily… Whattya call it… Ordinary roses.”

Liatris had already been aware of these ‘roses’ but little was known about them. What exactly was special about this plant? His father continued.. “No--These are roses which could somehow enhance our abilities--Special people like us.” The man eyed his wife and sons. “And to think if we get our very hands on these roses, we’d rise up to the top!” Johnny chuckled, placing both hands over the counter of the table. “Little is known about it, but I expect you all to get what you can.” Johnny said, before he eyed Liatris.

Liatris picked at his waffles in silence. So… These were indeed special roses. But for what? At that moment, it was only then that Liatris could see Johnny gaze over his direction from the corner of his eye. For Liatris, he simply had no choice--He was to comply and the male continued to ignore Johnny’s words of more business, and roses, and power--To Liatris. It was all foolish greed, an endless pit of hunger to be on top. What’s next? Johnny Edmond for president? It nearly disgusted him in a sense.

“Liatris, My boy.. You have a powerful face, and a powerful mind. Now think of what that face can DO..” Johnny lit up a cigar, inhaling the toxins and exhaling a thick cloud of smoke deliberately in the face of Liatris as a way to annoy his own son and get his attention. Liatris instantly looked back at Devan, his older brother. “Hmm.. Must be ringing in my ears--So, How’s life Devan?” He asked, blowing the smoke clear from his face as he grinned. Nonetheless his father continued, ”..Especially.. To women.” He said, slowly looking at his son from the corner of his eyes. It was clear Liatris was exasperated, choking on a chunk of his food before he wiped his mouth with a napkin--glaring at his father and licking his lips from the sweetness of his breakfast. Johnny’s face had lightened up as soon as he received his son’s full attention, his smile seemed warm and kind--A smile Liatris inherited as well which was actually a wicked one and Johnny casually chuckled at his son’s astonished look, flicking the cigar his way. “Now you see where i’m going, Secrets kiddo. By all means, do what it takes--Especially about--”

“I’m sorry you were speaking?” Liatris interrupted, tossing his napkin at Johnny and shoving his breakfast aside. “Remember who brought this family up ‘by all means’.” Snorted Liatris in a threatening tone, as he was implying his brother and he, himself. Liatris knew his father wasn’t serious about using him to sleep with women, however just having Johnny imply things like that, ticked Liatris off and he walked away irritably. Johnny had won this round, and Liatris went into his room to change, deciding that it was best to go out.

19


Gender;;
Male


Sexuality;;
Homosexual all the way.


Relationship Status;;
Single, he doesn’t mind trying out that ‘commitment’ thing.


Role;;
Youngest Edmond Son


Appearance;;
Liatris in appearance appears a bit more feminine and softer than the average male, and without a doubt he does in fact tend to his appearance on looking as soft and androgynous as possible. For starters, Liatris stands at 5"5, pretty short for a male but he doesn't necessarily despise his height. In fact he adores it and finds it quite convenient when he feels the need to crossdress. He has fluffy curly hair that people tend to have the sudden urge to tussle, and to take body figure further, his figure is fairly dainty but he does have some muscle in him. Liatris is also fair skinned with some rosy cheeks and red lips to go with his fluffy hair and smooth skin. His particular style ranges. If he’s ‘normal’ he has no style at all in particular. However if he crossdresses, he is very particular about what he wears. Nymphet fashion would be the general idea of how he dresses as a female which mixes in some girly fashion with vintage fashion, a basic concept of it really. But just cause Liatris adores crossdressing, doesn’t mean his mindset is fixated on being a woman or believing he is one however. He just simply adores womens clothing more than men's and its also more ‘fun’ in his opinion. The only scars he has would be located on his fingers from playing a knife game called ‘Five Finger Fillet’. He now regrets being the rascal he was when he was younger and causing himself these scars for fun due to the fact that he finds them ‘undesirable’ and ‘not perfect’ when he crossdresses.

Dislikes;;
→ Being the fucking stuck-up prince he is, He dislikes lesser brands or ‘poorer things’ below his usual high standards.
→ Not getting his way or what he wants unless convinced to not cause a shit storm. This goes to smaller, trivial terms such as: if he doesn’t get those louboutins or some bullshit. Other than that he won’t complain if he can’t get ‘That guy from the other mafia in bed’ or something along those lines that would be considered important to not fuck shit up.
→ The smell of wine absolutely bothers him.
→ People who talk a lot. Sure he adores attention, but who the hell wants to hear your vent if he didn’t ask?

Fears;;
→ The dark, surprisingly.
→ Abandonment


Personality;;
♦ Jolly ♦ Impish ♦ Observant ♦ Cunning ♦
Be it the good days or the bad, The youngest Edmond son expresses a sort of exuberant behavior that tends to be a warm welcome for new relations to trust almost immediately. You may not reveal personal matters yet, but often times in the first meeting alone theres just this sense of underlying security when speaking to Liatris. He is a person whom you can speak to, vent about trivial matters, and within the week and a few consecutive conversations, reveal the darkest secrets as a way to relieve yourself--Or maybe just the tip of the iceberg. How he acts is what attracts the people around him. His eccentric behavior which is often underestimated to be ulterior motives is disturbingly mistaken as kindness towards newcomers and this foolish behavior is merely just an act to pin others down and play a game. Once he's got you into his trap, he is determined to slowly break you under your very nose. He is cunning, and playing a part that is lesser known to be the 'bad guy' is what attracts his desired prey. If you become a target to Liatris' game, have you noticed anything abruptly strange which you cannot put your finger on? Bad luck perhaps? A loss of money? A pool of dead men by the Edmonds? Perhaps it was this fresh relationship with Liatris/'Leilani'? No, because he gives off a 'lover not a fighter' vibe. And how does Liatris necessarily cause trouble under the noses of others? It's the relationship he builds off and the vibe which he demonstrates. No one is able to point a finger on Liatris no matter what underlying conflict will appear despite being the 'newest in depth relationship' with his said target, and it shows just how chaotically slick he is. He will comfort you in the conflict -his family has- caused, and act just as surprised as you. Then once the task is done, he is sure to disappear again, and move on to his next target.

But while displaying a sort of joyous and loving behavior which entices -or entraps- his prey, to those who has survived his game or keenly knew someone who was in the game, or in some way just knows Liatris--Whatever it may be; Then this behavior comes off more amused than kind. The perfect way to describe this 'fun and loving behavior' can only be seen as 'Theatrical' in the eyes of someone who is truly aware of Liatris or games like his and as a result, this causes Liatris to probably be the most hated Edmond perhaps. This fact does not mean he is known -as he is elusive-, but definitely the most hated after his father due to his nature of being manipulative and even a pathological liar. No matter what corner you manage to trap Liatris in, it's rare to get the truth out of him at all as he either dances around it or flat out continues his charade and some predict that his twisted mind of playing games will indeed lead to his death one day. In fact Liatris is so used to being the manipulative informant in the family that in his free time from having a specific target, he enjoys putting people in chaotic situations. This impish nature outside of work is what strains him from creating any genuine or lasting bonds. But those who do manage to stay and understand him, surprisingly gain the same respect back. Not in the same manner, but he will indeed display a sort of affectionate gratitude for putting up with his shit.

Playing a 'game' with others gives Liatris a sense of superiority which he enjoys. However if the game comes back at him and he's the one who had been underhanded instead, it amuses him even more. However, when provoked, he quickly puts his opponent in their place by simply proving his superiority without actually beating the other person. Liatris also has a sort of inferiority-superiority complex if you will, having insecurities and internal conflict here and there inside while acting high and mighty towards others. While conflicts may happen, Liatris tends to stay out of it in a way and play his role to the end until the Edmonds believe they have control over the situation. He is observant with people, and thus will do anything to get what he wants or if it's a family situation ; Will do anything to achieve what they want to achieve. The fact that he mostly lives to serve for the family is what can be see as conflicting in another's point of view since he is the youngest son, but Liatris does not seem to mind. He is aware of the concept that he is being used but has this sort of undying loyalty he can't shake off.

Ability;;
Liatris has the ability to manipulate the memories of others, However he doesn't consider his ability as an actual power thats 'cool' in his opinion. In terms of manipulating memories, Liatris can manifest them openly or privately, and alter them to a certain degree. When Liatris is looking through the memories of others, nothing can describe it any easier than saying it's like a movie when he digs through the mind of another. But it usually depends on the person and the complexity of their mind or their character, Their mental palace can be a movie theatre with film titles, a library with books, multiple doors, or even a stressful office full of individual files -which he has never encountered but will despise-. Everyone has their own 'mental palace' as he states so it's unpredictable to get a hold of one single memory if the target is unwilling to give it, thus he relies on trickery and wit for the user to at least tip him off. However sometimes that one piece of memory often represents what he wants if the user is strong enough to not tip him off. Example if he wishes to know where a lost dog is or something and his target refuses to tell to which he travels into their mind palace of memories, a book about dogs or a door with claws will indicate what he is looking for. He can see almost everything, But it's mostly key points in their lives or things that have created the character they are today.

The male is also capable to try and restore a certain memory, however it strains him physically since he finds it harder to obtain a blurred memory than simply alter them. This usually takes verbal commanding to guide Liatris to recreate the memory the person seeks, and usually if the memory created closely resembles the original memory it gets easier and memories which fit the memory being created will appear, to which it's a happy ending for the person.

If rushed however or stressed, Liatris can even 'accidentally' place himself in the memory or point of view of others to feel what they felt or think what they were thinking at the time, however he can't do it when he pleases.


Limitations;;
Memories are fragile, and Liatris is aware of that. One thing Liatris cannot absolutely do is take a memory away permanently, Like said he could only alter it to some degree. If he does take a memory away, it's only temporary to say the least and the person can try to remember it at will somehow. No matter what, there will always be a sort of trigger to make sense of the original memory. Another thing would be the mental complexity of the people he may encounter. If they have a strong will to keep him out, it is indeed possible to fight against his powers. They can hide the memory, disguise it however they please (more books if it's a library, papers scattered if its a office, etc), even trick Liatris into thinking that the memory being given is the memory he wants as he can confuse them in any way. A downfall of manipulating memories itself takes a toll on his own mental strength somewhat; They can be overwhelming to bear sometimes and he himself can only remember so much that it causes him to forget certain ones or information being given within that memory from an hour to a few days even ; Unless he actively tries to remember what was witnessed and observed mentally or physically. Physical contact is also a must, and very rarely can Liatris do it without physical contact or with eye contact alone.

I figured as he gets older he has more proper control and skill over his powers. Like some BBC Sherlock shit.


History;;
Growing up, Liatris was the spoiled brat out of his siblings. Whatever he wanted, he got it on a silver platter within hours or the next day maximum. He appeared more normal than his siblings however, and that was something his father couldn't comprehend exactly. Everyone in the family had powers of some sort that was apparent, but where was Liatris' abilities? He couldn't pick up a car, or pick anything up mentally for that matter. The kid didn't even know how to fly, so how was he an Edmond without abilities? Liatris was fairly late about his abilities but neither parent disgraced him for being the 'normal' Edmond in the family. In fact they seemed to simply adore him even more and develop a sort of stronger protective nature in the meantime, feeling that those with abilities outside their family had the ability to crush their child at any given time so they were always cautious. However, Liatris grew up to favor his mother more than his father--Not that Johnny Edmond did him any wrong it was just something Liatris picked up on for whatever reason it may be.

But while Liatris appeared to be the more 'favorited' one out of his siblings, he was also the more difficult one besides being spoiled which only encouraged his behavior. The youngest Edmond was both the smartest in terms of being cunning and the most devious. Even as a child, while he was popular with children he was rather a a cunning little rascal, tricking the kids into something or striking a deal which made him come out on top. As a child whenever he made friends he loved to lead and reign over the other children, he never picked on the other kids however his snooty and 'i'm better than you' behavior caused him to have a lack of friends, little to none to be exact as he was the type to have a certain 'clique' and leave the other kids out. But even with a clique, It was observed that Liatris was only interested in their toys, or snacks, or whatever a kid adored. The Edmonds felt disappointed in Liatris for being snooty. But it was apparent that perhaps by choice Liatris simply didn't want friends if he had family. And due to this mindset on not being interested in keeping friends besides using them for snacks or toys, this caused Liatris to often read profusely alone whenever he wasn't being a little terror child and sometimes read with one of the parents or both who made time to read to the boy. Liatris gained above average knowledge as a result but that doesn't mean he was an exact genius. 

His parents were aware of his manipulative and rather mischievous behavior of course, after the young boy pulled off the most simple stunts or even the most complex stunts, but being disciplined never made Liatris fear them any more. In fact, because they disciplined his behavior it only made him feel more more challenged and determined to get what he wanted or simply see their reactions as to how they put up with his antics. Some would say Liatris' temper in public or during meetings especially with connections was extremely terrible, however his parents would simply reply,'This is nothing.' with ease before putting him in his place and complying to his wishes on joining the meeting or something. Normally when Liatris pulled this sort of stunt, it was often a deliberate way to listen in on whatever negotiations was being made between his parents and some other criminal business. He would play the 'Just a kid here' part and listen in keenly in order to understand how such businesses work before talking about it with his parents rather curiously.

Then age 11 hit, and Liatris discovered his powers in one of his father's meetings with another crime lord who was being punished for crossing Johnny the wrong way. During this time, Liatris was being watched by his mother and the crime lord's wife--Forced to play with their child. "Play the part and keep shut." his mother had whispered to him before their arrival and Liatris simply complied, giving off a innocent vibe who loved to make friends. After a while however he excused himself to go to the bathroom, only to join his father out of curiosity from hearing the yelps of terror coming from another room. The nearby guards had attempted to shoo Liatris away but failed, causing Johnny to stop his meeting--Or for that matter it was more of a 'session'.

"Whaddya want kiddo?" His father peaked through the crack of the door. Liatris leaned in, hearing painful pants coming from a tired man, and seeing a bit of blood splattered on the floor. "I don't like that kid. He's poor, obnoxious, and dumb." he responded. "To bad Liatris, just suck it up for now--Please." the man said with a cough, rushing his son. Liatris glared up at his father with impatience himself and began to throw a fit with himself out of anger. "Fine--I'm telling the guest." he declared. It was only then that the father had pulled the child in as a way to get back to work, and shut his own son up.

Seeing so much blood before his eyes didn't faze Liatris as this very scene was considered 'normal' to him due to his exposure to it from his clinginess with his parents. The victim had been brutally beaten by the hands of his own father and he seemed to refuse snitching on who he had been working for the whole time. His attempt to bring down the Edmonds and be a 'somebody' was a failed one, and Liatris merely sat on a chair near the fireplace quietly. Each hit bruising the man, merely causing him to flinch here and there. Before long, his father turned to the fireplace, wiping his knuckles as a cigarette was served to him and he proceeded to speak angrily about the case involving the man. Going over the details, and bringing together the pieces to lead up to an idea which the crime lord refused to admit.

Liatris stood from his seat and walked closer around his father's victim with silence as he heard his father's shouting. Circling, the boy couldn't tell if the man was truly dead or still alive until he stretched a trembling hand out to touch the man's head and pick it up as a way to face him. "Liatris, stay away from him." His father's voice boomed, causing the boy to flinch. However when Liatris turned around the setting had changed, and it seemed as though he was in the last memory which stuck out to the man while being beaten and interrogated by his father. Of course Liatris didn't know at the time, he explored this specific memory the man had been thinking of and began to fret within that memory in confusion. Who were these people? A plan to bring down Johnny and be the new head? What on earth was going on? Liatris became overwhelmed with emotion as he observed the memory. No one was talking to him, he was like a ghost. Then things went black and he felt like he was being kidnapped suddenly. He was in the position of the man before he had gotten here, and from what Liatris assumed the man had been here for no more than a day before his wife was invited for a 'play date'. The memory had ended from when he was kidnapped and Liatris suddenly came back into the world of reality, shouting uncontrollably in his father's arms. Johnny lulled the boy calm as he held him tightly and tousled his hair. From that night on Johnny became aware of Liatris' powers and the next day had explained what had happened. It seemed as though Liatris had also somehow manifested the memory he was in which helped his father but he was still in shock due to placing himself in the point of view of the man at the time he was being kidnapped.

To keep things short, Johnny had helped Liatris be more focused and in control of his power. At 16, Liatris was actually sent on tasks to deceive and obtain information by force from anybody who had seemed to antagonize his father. Missions like these tend to cloud his father's judgement sometimes; One minute he'd be worried about his son--however moving on to the next he'd be determined that his pawn would win. And with such a mindset, Liatris himself even went as far as to offer up sex on the table in order to play the part well and receive good intel. He sold his body, in return for secrets be it by force or trickery.


Extra;;
→ Keanu Reeves... And Harrison Ford.
→ After days of searching for the 'perfect' female FC which had similar traits to Ezra Miller face wise, I finally decided to give up and settled on Liv Tyler as Liatris's crossdressing appearance and mixed it in with imaginative thoughts such as having more of Ezra Miller's facial features as well as fluffy hair. Bear with me please. Also, extra.

He shall later on. Or perhaps head-canonically he does when he's older ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

→ Liatris was named after flowers his mother adored.
→ He adores tattoos, however isn't allowed to have them due to being a sort of infiltrator at times. Piercing, tattoos, scars, or anything else which may cause a mark on his skin is forbidden for Liatris personally. Having such would lead him to be exposed much more quicker, and because of his father's greed they simply can't risk scarring or tampering with Liatris' skin any further. It was bad enough he was punished for having scarred fingers from five finger fillet. But often times these were overlooked by his victims as 'unimportant to actually remember' as they were to drawn to how he acted and 'loved'.
→ He enjoys entertaining himself the 'old fashioned' way or making a game of something around him. Be it from rubiks cubes, building blocks, doing origami, etc. He was always known to be imaginative and make use of his free time productively when sex and business wasn't around to take up his time. But due to the fact that he doesn't have that much 'free-time' as there always seems to be something he has to do (not that he ever seems to complain), he finds the little things rather interesting.
