♀ ♤ ♦ ⦂
♀ how long does your muse usually need for a shower/bath?
It depends. If it’s a normal shower, he’s in and out in ten minutes. If it’s because he’s hurting and his back or his joints are bothering him, he’ll lie in a too-hot tub until Mick starts in on him about heat stroke. Which Len is pretty damn sure you can’t get from sitting in a bath, but Mick can be a mother hen sometimes.
If Mick’s showering with him, the showers last as long as the water tank does.
♤ does your muse have any scars? where? what do they look like? how did get them?
Len has way too many scars. Injuries are a hazard of being Lewis’ son and of being a criminal. If it wasn’t his dad with fists and broken beer bottles, it was jobs with guns or inmates with shivs. There are some burn scars from Mick’s fires that they don’t talk about. Ever.
People crack jokes about the way he keeps himself covered up, but the fact of the matter is that he’s got scars all over, but they’re mostly centered on his upper body. When Gideon reconstructed his hand and part of his wrist, it was the first time he’d seen that skin scar-free in decades. Old cigarette burns--another of Lewis’ favorites--were gone, but more are still littered up the inside of both forearms. He’s got an old stab wound on his right side. There are burns on his back from when he dragged Mick out of the fire in Shreveport. A bullet wound in his left shoulder from one bastard that got too close. His right knee has a mess of surgical scars from when a job went bad and Mick had downright carried him to a hospital. There are more scars he doesn’t even remember the stories behind, whether by time or by choice. Lisa still gets choked up whenever she sees what’s left of old scars on his back. He thinks they might be from a belt, but he’s not sure and it’s better to just not let her see them.
♦ any tattoos? where? what’s the story behind them?
No tattoos. There have been points where he wanted them and where he told himself “if I ever got a tattoo, this is what I’d get”, but tattoos mean identifying marks and having to expose scarred skin to a tattoo artist.
Let it be clear, Len has zero interest in prison tats. He knows how they’re done and knows with his luck, he’d end up with an infection. He’ll pass.
⦂ what clothes do they sleep in?
Long-sleeved shirts and sweatpants. Yes, he is the person that will get redressed after sex, even if his partner is looking at him like he’s crazy. No, he does not want to sleep naked. Most of his beds have been in sketchy motel rooms or half-assed safe-houses. You’re lucky he put his naked ass on that bed long enough to do anything.
Plus, he’s always cold as shit at night. Poor circulation.
