Disclaimer/Notes/Whatever: I don’t own FE9 or Leanne, but I am the one who plays her. And I wrote this.
1. Leanne’s first experience with the magic journals was finding out that there were two Naesalas. Needless to say, she was Very Confused.
2. Originally, she required a translator to communicate with other journal-users, a service helpfully provided by Aesa (the female Naesala). Later, Reyson taught her enough of the beorc language for her to write in it.
3. One week after her first journal entry, she was turned into a male by the dark god. The creepiest part about this was that she looked almost exactly like her brother. Thankfully, this only lasted for about a week.
4. Leanne has a tendency to be sarcastic at times, especially about the topic of Naesala’s morals (or lack thereof). It’s not that she doesn’t know that he’s not exactly a saint; it’s that she understands why he did those things and has forgiven him.
5. Two months after the dark god turned her into a girl, the aforementioned dark god turned her into a… well, skank is the more polite term. Within the course of a week, she managed to sleep with hippie!Black Knight, bishie!OOC!Oscar, nice-guy!Naesala, and cheerful!Seeker.
6. (It might be worth noting that Leanne topped. All four times. In fact, if you mention to Naesala that he was acting like a complete uke, he’ll probably hit you.)
7. After that particular chaos ended, she arranged for the services of a therapist. And who could blame her?
8. It took her a few weeks to get through her ‘the guy I slept with’s current girlfriend was not only aware that I slept with him, but actually chased away some of his subordinates and oh goddess how can I compete with that?’ phase. Despite aforementioned ‘current girlfriend’ having given her express permission to date Naesala.
9. Leanne’s doppelganger, Anne, then started writing in the journals. Leanne is good friends with Anne, but is sometimes overwhelmed by her double’s ‘valley girl’ way of speaking and… ah, loose morals.
10. Leanne is one of the few people who can stand to talk to Reyson’s doppelganger, Lance, for longer than a few minutes. Even so, she wishes he wasn’t quite so arrogant.
11. In the most recent chaos, Leanne was stuck in Nealuchi’s body, and had to deal with two laguz-hating and/or homicidal beorc (Shinon and Ashnard) in the same country. She also had a chance to yell at Naesala’s lackeys for being voyeurs.
12. Seeker asked her out on a date. Leanne accepted (after getting her brother’s permission) and the pair had dinner out together. The pair is thus one of the few ‘normal’ relationships among the journal-users (Ike’s sleeping with a Grim Reaper, Ulku and M-Unit are a beorc-laguz couple, Naesala’s sleeping with his double, Oscar’s affections towards Volke aren’t exactly returned…)
13. OOC!Tibarn, or Birdman T as he prefers to be called, scared the living daylights out of Leanne with his flirting. Currently, he scares her more than the Black Knight and Ashnard combined.
14. Mostly because of the stress from dealing with Birdman, she started flirting with Naesala, and threw a tantrum when he told her she couldn’t date both him and Seeker. Later, she apologized for yelling at him.
15. Leanne still has the clothes she wore during the personality swap, including a leather outfit that looks surprisingly similar to Naesala’s and a very low-cut red top that… err… leaves little to the imagination, shall we say? Don’t ask her why she still has them.
16. She once read the Kama Sutra cover to cover. No, she doesn’t know why, either. Boredom, probably.
17. Leanne’s musical tastes range from the Cardigans to Diana Ross, while her personality-swapped self’s two theme songs are “Don’t Cha” by the Pussy Cat Dolls, and “Instigator” by Kaci Brown. Despite the fact that those musicians don’t exist on Tellius.
18. Technically, Leanne’s first kiss was the Black Knight. She prefers not to think about this.
19. She gets along well with most of the other journal-users, even the crazy ones (like Shin, who’s proclaimed himself to be married to both Gatrie and Soren) and the slightly odd ones (like M-Unit, whose major hobbies seem to be gossiping over the laguz royalties’ love lives and acting gangsta).
20. Leanne doesn’t know this, but the gods have been planning ahead for their chaos, and… well, let’s just say that Leanne might have a use for that leather outfit some time soon...
