Your agere boards for the bishops are soooo cute!! 😭
Do you have any personal headcanons for Leshy that you’d be willing to share? :3c
Leshy AgeRe HCs and bonus little moodboard!!
Hi okay, this is my fourth time trying to post this, I hope it works this time because both times prior I did it on tumblr and it didn’t save/work so this is my third time trying to post this!!
Do I have 9-10 requests in line before this? Yes! But also, I have autism and my current hyperfixation is CotL, and those requests are (literally) all PHIGHTING! and as much as I love the game, I am so obsessed with Leshy right now, he’s literally me!!
I assume this was meant to be agere HCs, if not let me know and I can do more on him in general, or if you want him as a caregiver HCs! Normally I wouldn’t do general character HCs but I’ll make an exception for Leshy!!
🤍 Being the youngest of the bishops, Leshy has been babied his entire life, especially since he was the youngest when he found his crown, literally a baby. So he got used to the treatment from his siblings.
🩵 It ended with him ending up a little spoiled and entitled, but not to a terrible degree, just when your siblings always bend to your whims, it’s gets to your head, especially as a child. He’d complain about the babying, then use it to his advantage, and he liked it, but don’t tell his siblings he said that.
🤍 As Leshy began to age mentally, over centuries, his siblings noticed a… quirk of sorts. Whenever he’d get stressed, scared, overwhelmed, or upset in any way, he would begin to act younger than he was, and become very clingy and less self sufficient.
🩵 His siblings never minded, they were happy to care for him, they love babying him after all. He only wanted to be around his siblings during these times, curling up next to them (as much as you can when you’re that large) and just wanting to exist in their presence and be comforted and safe.
🤍 This continued till he lost his godhood, and was indoctrinated by the Lamb. He was so scared, so overwhelmed, so stressed, he began to cry and regressed. Narinder, hearing the all too familiar cries, something even his time in purgatory couldn’t make him forget, rushed over to care for his brother.
🩵 Narinder quickly informed the Lamb of Leshy’s odd behavior, and was excused from any work to care for him before his other siblings were brought back.
🤍 Narinder didn’t leave Leshy’s side till the Lamb also indoctrinated Heket, because only his brother could calm him, no complete strangers he didn’t even know what they looked like. It was tiring, but Narinder’s older brother instincts kicked in and he remembered how to care for his brother.
🩵 Finally, around when Kallamar was indoctrinated, Leshy began to unregress, but it wasn’t easy, he was little for so long due to just how scared and stressed he was. But slowly, he went back to his normal mental age, much to his siblings relief, they knew he did it when scared, so to see him unregressing was a weight off their shoulders.
🤍 Leshy doesn’t just regress when stressed, sometimes he does it when he’s perfectly content, just feeling small and wanting to be warm, safe, and comfortable with his siblings. It took them a while to figure that one out, they kept going crazy trying to figure out what was upsetting their baby brother, before finally learning it was nothing, he was just tired and felt safe.
🩵 He’s not the type of regressor who wants to play with dolls and stuffed animals, he wants to run in the grass, roll around in the mud, collect any mushrooms or flowers he feels. The feeling of the wind on his leaves, the bird chirping, the smell of dirt and trees, it reminds him of Darkwood.
🤍 Due to his odd mouth shape, pacifiers don’t really work with him, but he can and will chew/bite anything he can get his hands on. People, plants, rocks, his own arm, he’s like a teething baby cranked up to 11. If you don’t want him to draw blood or ruin furniture, he needs things to chew on, whatever their equivalent of teethers are.
🩵 Leshy loves all of his siblings, but he goes to them depending on his mood when he’s little. If he just wants someone to be there for him, to exist near without words, he goes to Narinder. Similar but giving more advice and reading him more stories is Shamura. If he wants to be dotted on, fretted over, Kallamar. And if he wants someone to roughhouse with, roll around in the dirt with, he goes to Heket.
🤍 With how active of a little he is, he falls, a lot, especially since he’s blind. But usually, he just gets right back up and back to running around like nothing happened. So sometimes he gives Kallamar a heart attack by just shaking up covered in scrapes and bruises, but looking confused when asked if he’s okay. If he isn’t, you will know.
🩵 He can be very, VERY loud, if he wants attention, he screams. If he’s actually in pain, he screams. If he’s hungry, he screams. If he’s lost, he screams. If the vibes are off, he screams.
🤍 But, when he’s more stressed, more afraid, he’s quiet, just wanting to curl up and be safe with his siblings. If it weren’t for the fact that his eyes are gone, he’d probably be a teary-eye regressor when upset. He doesn’t want loudness, he wants calm and comfort, he wants the past back, his siblings.
🩵 Leshy doesn’t play with toys, but he used to finger paint when he was little. After loosing his sight, it feels pointless, but Kallamar, ever the artistic one of the bishops, encourages him to do it again, if he can’t see, that means it’ll just be raw emotion, not trying to copy an image.
Please work this time, I spent a while on this. Again, let me know if this is not what you wanted, and sorry to my other requests, regression is my way of coping, I’ll do what I want when it comes to it.
