Leo Could Definitely Draw Himself Better Than I Drew Him - Blog Posts

1 year ago

What are the things Leo and Clay like to do in their spare time? Do they have any hobbies / interests they'd like to explore but haven't been able to yet?

Clay spends a lot of his free time trying become literate again. He very quickly realizes how difficult it is to function in society when he can't read or write the language that everyone uses, and he hates having to rely on Leo for it (even though Leo doesn't mind it). After Leo helps him get the basics down in terms of the alphabet, necessary words, and simple grammar, he starts reading simple books to expand his vocabulary. Writing is particularly difficult for him to learn to due to the fact that he has to learn to write a new alphabet with paws AND as a quadruped. He comes to find that he enjoys reading comics a lot. The combination of pictures and less words allows him to enjoy fictional works despite his poor reading skills, which he greatly appreciates. Eventually, he wants to read well enough to read more advanced nonfiction books so he can learn more about the history, science, and overall state of the new world he's living in. That's on the backburner for now though.

Leo likes to paint in his spare time. Art is something his parents introduced him to when he was young, and they would often bring him back materials to use from their expeditions. It helps him de-stress, which is super good him considering that he's a bundle of nerves most of the time. After joining the guild with Clay, he starts to make his own supplies/paints using items they find in mystery dungeons. He also takes inspiration from the new places they explore and implements them into his paintings. Clay insists that his paintings are incredible and that he should be selling them somewhere, but Leo doesn't buy it.

There's a lot the two of them like to do together too. They both enjoy visiting Treasure Town while preparing for missions. Clay likes to chat with travelers and other explorers, and Leo enjoys talking with the shopkeepers whom he knows from his parents. They also like stopping by Spinda's after they finish their jobs for the day. Leo prefers sweeter drinks, whereas Clay tends to prefer more tart, citrusy juices. They also enjoy taking walks on the beach together when they have the time. The sound of the waves is relaxing, and it's a nice escape from all the noise of the world and busy guild life.
