#takeem

Hakeem is creative, selfish, ambitious and impulsive. As the youngest Lyon, Hakeem has always felt like he needed to prove himself to his family and be the leader of Empire.

At his best, Hakeem becomes more responsible after the birth of his daughter Bella. Hakeem also becomes more loyal to his family and begins to put others above himself.

At his worst, Hakeem can be extremely selfish and arrogant. When he was younger, he often used others for his own interests. Hakeem was also very disrespectful to his family, especially Cookie.

Hakeem was always treated better than his brothers by Lucious because of his musical talent. So, Hakeem felt like he was entitled to become the leader of Empire. However, he also wanted to make sure he did a good job once he actually became CEO of Empire.

Hakeem is naturally very talented, but will often self-sabotage when he feels he is not being heard or that he is not doing what he wants, which can be common in unhealthy 7s. As we see him grow throughout the series, he becomes more receptive to listening to others and cooperates with his colleagues more.

7s do not like feeling trapped in anything as they like to have more choice in their lives, which we see with Hakeem. Whenever Lucious tries to control Hakeem's music career, Hakeem reacts badly. For example, he purposely sabotages Lucious by leaking his own music.

Hakeem shows his wing 6 as he is less aggressive and assertive than a 7w8.

Tri-type: 7w6 - 3w2 - 9w8

Some quotes to describe Hakeem's motivations

"Dad put all of our asses on blast. I had a homeless person trying to give me a dollar when we were leaving."

"To hell with him and his Steve Harvey outfits."

"Was I dreaming last night or did we fill the hot tub up with syrup?"

do you want hakeem and tiana to get married or prefer the hakeem and maya marriage?

my ocs if they were in genshin!!

nermina: i want to say either a pyro (because of her passion for mechanics and such) or geo (very headstrong) vision. not sure what weapon she'd have, maybe she'd do multiple weapons like childe.

celeste: not sure… mayyybe an electro or dendro vision? she isn’t really a good fit for any of them. i could see her using a polearm or bow. she doesn’t really like up-close conflict. or conflict at all, lol.

takeem: ELECTRO VISION. he’s weird and gay and kinda dogcore; perfect fit. he’d be one of those catalysts who throw hands instead of using spells.

lorenzo: easy, dendro vision. this boy needs to learn things to live and constantly aspires towards both knowing academic stuff and understanding himself. i think they’d go for the basic sword as his weapon.

aditi: hydro vision due to her strong belief in justice and will to protect. id say she’s a throwing-hands catalyst too, but i could also see a claymore on him.

ashley: anemo vision. no contest. short and twinkish? check. kinda weird? check. lost their best friend? check. if i had to pick a weapon, i’d say a catalyst, something with far range so they can afford a bit of laziness.

hilal: …cryo vision? idk, that’s the most traumatized and mentally ill element so. also he would def use a claymore. it hits the hardest and kills the easiest. if you asked him, he’d be visionless and use the most basic sword ever.

fusae: oh fusae. self-sacrificial, overly caring fusae. hilal would give her a pyro delusion (so they can do reactions together and she can be useful for something). it would slowly kill her, but it wouldn’t matter to her; anything for hilal. she’d use a bow and be a healer.

miguel: i wanna say electro vision bc of his actual lightning powers, but that doesn’t fit too well. probably a cryo or anemo vision because of his mental illness. he also uses a polearm/spear canonically, so there.

tam lin: dendro vision. easy. he mainly grows flowers with it to keep his garden safe and flourishing. he uses a bow probably, but i could also see a catalyst or a sword.

valentina: cryo vision because this bitch is a struggler. i can't imagine her ever fighting, so we'll skip the weapon part.

penelope: pyro vision for the contrast with valentina and because of her passion. she'd pick a claymore or a sword as her weapon- something heavy to compensate for what little valentina provides.
