Name:Feliciano Vargas
Nicknames: Feli
Age: 19
Date of Birth: March 17th
Gender: Male
Occupation: Art Student
Heritage: Cat- Abyssian domestic cat
Seed Rank: Flight Seed
Birthplace: Venice, Italy
Appearance:Feliciano is far from imposing, being only 5'8"-ish and thin-limbed, and still with a boyish roundness to his face and stomach despite a slim waist and hips. However, like his spirit form he's definitely striking,lithe and graceful and if one were being fanciful one could describe him as 'edible', with rich auburn hair, tan skin and wide, warm brown eyes that can turn a honeyed amber in the right light... if he ever bothers to open them all the way. There may be some baby fat lingering, but he has good bone structure underneath; an almost heart-shaped face with a slightly upturned nose, high cheekbones, and a strong chin. He has a tendency to let his hair get a just bit too long, center-parted bangs brushing into his eyes and one flyaway curl drooping down from the side- but he manages to make it look intentional, with that just-right amount of messy that some people can spend hours sculpting into place. His clothing is nice, occasionally slightly sloppy or wrinkled but always good quality and well fitted unless he's been painting, when he'll find his oldest and rattiest clothes or not bother with any at all.
He has a bad habit of letting his spirit form sneak out and when they show his ears are wide set and large with a rounded tip, his tail thin and long and both of them a ticked range of ruddy tan and browns that blend well with his hair.
Distinguishing Features: Feliciano has the usual minor scars of an active childhood and though he'd like to get a peircing or tattoo his family has kept a tight leash on that particular sort of artistic expression. he will occasionally doodle things on his arms or the backs of his hands. He has one long curl that sneaks out of his bangs on the left side of his face and refuses to stay all the way down, and it seems to be oddly sensitive when his lovers play with it.
Sexual Orientation: Love is Love, if the person is pretty, ve~ <3 (bisexual)
Likes:
- Good Food/Desserts- So much that he occasionally over-eats, especially when given sweets and only a naturally high metabolism and fidgety nature keeps him from gaining weight.
- Beauty -in people, nature and objects- anything he finds inspiring
- Making new friends and being with friends and family
- Taking naps in warm places - he is a cat, after all, and if there's not sunshine near the heater will do. or maybe in your lap?
- Attention and being touched- very physical and tactile, and no sense of personal space whatsoever
- Playing - He gets antsy if he's made to sit still too long and even at the mature college age of nineteen he wants to go outside and run and chase things
- Football (soccer)- it's running and chasing a ball and playing and you get to /hug/ when you win!
Dislikes:
- Bad Food/ Wasting food by cooking it poorly- he can't understand why anyone would ruin such lovely fruits and vegetables and meat and pasta by leaving it unseasoned or putting in too much seasoning or burning it. If you can't cook you should just make sandwiches.
- Exercise- running around and playing is fine, but dedicated exercise is too much and makes his chest hurt and he could be painting or talking to pretty girls
- Working - If it's not art or food related he's kind of hopeless and people shout at him.
- Church- God is good and he likes talking to the priests and painting His creation, but does mass have to take so long? at least there's singing.
- Being left out- It's no fun to be left out of the loop and friends shouldn't ignore friends when there's a party or gossip
Interests/Hobbies:
- Painting/ drawing- Feliciano lives for his art, and if he has something in hand to doodle with he will. he's a very prolific artist, often working on multiple canvases at once- but if something's a particularly inspiring or important piece he will focus on it and occasionally forgo even sleep and food to get his vision just right.
- Cooking- making food brings people together, and it's fun.
- People Watching- somewhat to see how people interact, but mainly to look out for interesting people and poses to draw. it can come off a little creeper at times when he gets caught up in a moment.
Aspirations:
- To make beautiful art
- To find someone to love and have lots of chubby bambinos with- but that doesn't mean he can't have girlfriends and boyfriends and occasional one night stands until he finds someone to settle down with, even if the family would rather have him breeding already.
- To enjoy life every day
Fears:
- being left alone/losing his loved ones
- losing his talents - he's always been praised for being good natured, but moreso for being good at his art; so he doesn't know what to do if he ever runs out of inspiration.
- Big scary mean people and strangers
- To be made to have babies with/Get married to someone he doesn't like
- rats- they bite, and mama says they're covered in nasty diseases even if they're really cute, like the plague. (even in the modern day, yes.)
Personality: Feliciano is, at least on the surface, the definition of happy go lucky; a sweet and caring young man who maybe ought to have a few more /worldly/ cares. He wears his heart on his sleeve and can be quick to cry, whether in fear or sadness or sympathy with even the smallest of a complete stranger's problems, but he's also quick to shake it off and smile again, preferring to focus on the good things. Feliciano is almost willfully oblivious to negative interpretations of the world around him and always tries to shine the best light on everything and everyone. Though he's the middle child of three boys, he's been treated more like the typical spoilt and coddled youngest and so is not above using his 'innocent' demeanor and big brown eyes to get his way if necessary.
Feliciano is a very lively person, very animated and enthusiatic-it can be dangerous to get too close when he's really excited about something, on account of the gestures and flailing, and it's hard to keep still unless he's focused on his art. He is possibly a little too friendly and a easily distracted, leaving people blinking in his wake as he jumps from topic to topic. This applies to physical distractions as well- small darting objects, animals, or even the sway of his own hair will pull his attention. He's far from unintelligent, but common-sense logic isn't always the same as Feliciano logic and it's hard to make him focus on things he doesn't find interesting; however if you can convince him something's important to know he'll try his hardest to understand. Easily distracted also means easily startled, and he'll almost always choose 'flight' over 'fight', freezing or crying and then making all attempts to evade whatever's frightened him. It doesn't make him a coward though, as he will stand and fight if he needs to or when cornered, especially for other people. (even if he's shaking and stuttering the whole time.) He doesn't hold grudges, often forgetting that the person who's giving him sweets and attention this week shouted at him last week, and people who tried to hurt him always Went Away when he was living at home with his family and the servants anyway.
Feliciano is sweet as can be, and it's usually not worth ruining a beautiful day by getting angry and fighting, but if you get on his bad side he can be just as thoughtlessly vicious as he is kind- especially if you've just hurt someone he cares about or damaged a peice of art. If you're lucky he'll take you head on and bleed out his anger quickly (and be very ashamed and apologetic about losing his temper the next day), but he's also likely to take it out in more subtle ways... especially because no one would believe sweet and charming feliciano would dump your favorite shirt into the lake just because you ate the last cannoli, you should be more careful with your things.
He's the weakest 'seed' of his family and he's not that great at remembering to tone down the pheremones or keep his ears and tail in, but he's always been protected from any ill effects and doesn't see the point in worrying if other people see what he is.
Family:
- Ancient Rome (Grandpa)
- Carmela Vargas (mother)
- Father- [name goes here]
- Seborgia Vargas (half-brother)
Brief History: If you asked him, Feliciano would say he had a 'normal' childhood, but the average child doesn't get to grow up with servants and occasionally bodygaurds in a gorgeous house in the italian countryside. Born on the same day as his brother, just a few years later, Feliciano was always very pleased to be told they looked just like twins even if it made lovino frown, because that meant he was like his older brother, and he could never understand why lovino seemed to get in trouble all the time. Whereas lovino was the unplanned offspring of a summer fling, Feliciano was the result of impeccable bloodlines coming together, and while his mother was dissapointed that once again her child wasn't a higher class, his biddable nature and potential for future breeding, and resemblance to herself, as well as the artistic talent that bloomed at an early age quickly made him the favored child. He was content to be guided along and protected by his mother, and he was given most everything he asked for, even eventually a 'baby brother' of his own- though it was awfully confusing that little Seborgia's Papa wasn't the same as his.
Feliciano retreated into his art once Lovino left, especially after he became aware of his mother's and grandfather's attempts to match him up with suitable young women and men beyond the regular socialization and connection making of their circle, unable after so many years of being the good child to let them know he wasn't ready. His art talent that was more apparent and impressive by the day served as a suitable distraction, earning him praise and the attention of enough suitable high class and high powered 'art lovers' among his friends that they left him alone. He enjoyed the attention and quite a few casual relationships, but he just couldn't bring himself to choose a mate or even a steady girlfriend when he hadn't even reached the age his own mother had been when his big brother lovino was born.
While he loved his life, the parties and trips with his family and the freedom to work on his art even if his grades weren't always the best and sometimes people picked on him, the highlight of those years was always the arrival of packages for him and his younger brother, carefully boxed and never with a return address. He saved each and every 'care package' with Lovino's rough handwriting across it, many of the figurines and sweets inside becoming the focus of later still lifes. Once he neared the end of his schooling and began to look for art schools, there was no question of where he would go- wherever lovino was.
Despite being a lackluster student, he threw all his energy into finding any trace of his older brother and what he'd been doing, so much that his doting grandfather took pity on feliciano's naivete and stress and slipped him some of the reports from watchers and private investigators the family had arranged to keep track of their wayward oldest son. With the talent to get a scholarship at any school he wanted, it wasn't any problem to get in to the closest university he could find to lovino's house, and that it put him farther away from increasingly common discussions of a possible arranged marraige or stud visit was just a bonus to finding his beloved Fratello again. His first time out into the real world isn't entirely unsupervised as he's been given an allowance and a tracked cell phone, but this is sheer heady freedom to him and he's ready for his newest adventure.
Whether or not Lovino would consider his little brother on his doorstep with a pile of suit cases and 'dorm essentials' as happily is another thing entirely.

Feliciano had vibrated in his seat the entire way; from family car to plane to train to car again, earning him amused glances and exasperated sighs and a long suffering acceptance from his current retainer. A retainer who was currently doing the grunt work of carrying his not-insignificant luggage from the slick rental car behind them to the porch of the somewhat rundown house that he was assured contained his brother while the younger italian continued to fret and vibrate.
The case with his art supplies, of course, was safe in one hand, his other fussing with his bangs and the lay of his clothes to sort out that travel-rumpled look. The retainer dumped down the last of his suitcases, this one packed with every 'dorm essential' his mother had read that university students would need, and nodded with a small acknowledging noise.
Feliciano nodded back before flinging his free arm enthusiastically around the man, a surprisingly strong hug that undid any straightening he'd managed.
"Ve, Grazi. That all looks very heavy! but i think you should go now, i'll be okay. Fratello doesn't seem to like you all very much even though i think you do the best at your jobs we could ever ask for <3."
" Are you sure? you're mother specifical-"
"Si, si, go! It should be family only, ve?"
He nodded again, feliciano's attention already back on the door in front of him and unware of the dim thunk of a heavy door being closed and the rented car pulling away only to linger watchfully at the end of the driveway. the italian pulled in a deep breath, hand shaking with excitement and no little bit of apprehension as he knocked on the door once, twice, three times, voice lifting to add to the noise.
"Veee?~ Lovino? Are you in there?"
