look who just moved into 3E! is that TOMMY MARTINEZ? no, that’s definitely ALEKSANDUR KRUM! rumour has it the TWENTY FIVE year old is a HALFBLOOD and used to be a DURMSTRANG student but now HE spends their time as a CIRCUS PERFORMER. i’m sure they’ll be a great addition to the apartments since they’re CHARMING and WITTY, despite being DESTRUCTIVE and CONCEITED. take some time to settle in. just remember rent is due on the first!

AESTHETIC.
the curl of smoke, the flickering of a single streetlight, charming your way out of trouble with a smile and a look, raising your fist in victory, the sharp smell of gasoline, booming laughter, an unapologetic flashing of the middle finger, thriving in chaos, the intimidating purr of a large cat.
HEADCANNONS.
Leks was raised by two kind, loving parents in a wealthy home in Bulgaria. So it really does make one wonder how he turned out like this. Because the thing was, while Viktor Krum was successful and talented and praised for all of that and still managed to be humble and kind, that gene absolutely skipped Leks over. Leks is an asshole, to put it bluntly. Has been pretty much since birth. He came out of the womb screaming bloody murder and shaking his little fists, and as he aged it only got worse. Because much like his father Leks was special. He had a talent for almost everything he tried his hand at, and that of thing goes to your head you know, especially as a child. It skews the way you see yourself. Leks saw himself, and still sees himself, as superior to almost everyone around him. And that cockiness has never been checked, because the worst part is all his life Leks had been surrounded by people who agreed. Yes, Leks, you really are the best. No one can beat you. No one is better than you.
So for all the years of his schooling, Leks royally disappointed his father by simply being a dick. He was the king of the school pretty much the moment he got in, and he caused trouble from the day he stepped foot in the place to the day he left. Playing pranks that weren't always kind, sleeping his way through the institution (girls, boys, and, in his later years, even young professors alike) and he got into the bad habit of charming his way out of trouble. Every time Leks was caught he'd simply smile, and kiss up, and lay it on thick. And for the most part, it unfortunately worked. Not always of course, after all, Durmstrang professors were known for being strict. But it definitely worked often enough for Leks to know it worked. All through his schooling most of the adults simply saw Leks as charismatic and funny, and never what he truly was: out of control. Only parents knew. And his father wasn't happy about it.
Leks was his father’s youngest child, and apparently biggest disappointment. His eldest sister was sweet, a healer and a bookworm. Painfully kind and warm almost to a fault. And one of his brothers was a Quidditch player, also with a heart of gold. He was brave, and good, and Leks was apparently none of those things. At least not to the extent of his siblings. You see, Leks was the black sheep simply because he was a bad egg in a household of good ones. But Leks couldn't understand why his father saw him that way. I mean, was he really that bad? He couldn't be right? He wasn't.
Leks always got along a bit better with his mother, who was always more lenient with him. She wasn't blind to Leks' bad behavior, but she accepted him and loved him despite it (not that Viktor didn't, he simply leaned more towards tough love). Leks' mother spoiled him, and honestly he adores her. Leks truly is a huge ass mama’s boy on the low, and he has no shame in admitting it.
I headcannon that Leks pulled some major nonsense, like he did something that went too far, and therefore got kicked off the Bulgarian quidditch team (I headcannon that he used to play beater and he was good, like he had a real talent and he was going to bring Bulgaria to their second world cup until he messed that all up dskjsdk) and cut off from Viktor money wise which is why he had to move to Phoenix Circus. I feel like this thing was very public, like in the Daily Prophet, and everyone knows about it. It might be drug related or something like that? Or just a stupid thing he did and I'm not sure exactly what he did for now but it was stupid enough that his dad doesn't even want him to come back home until he’s learned his lesson, and he doesn't really spend a lot of time in the wizarding world too much anymore because of all the negative attention. At least the muggles don’t know what Leks did, and therefore don’t judge him. I headcannon Leks to be a fire eater and occasional backup lion tamer in a local circus. I don’t know why I like the idea of a traveling circus filled with squibs and ex cons that Leks has just found himself fitting in with, but that’s the concept I’m going with. They don’t do any real magic in their show since they perform for muggles, which is really half the fun of it for them. But every once and a while they go all out and do a performance for witches and wizards, and those are always wild too. Anyways, we’re going to continue to develop along the way.
SMALL HEADCANNONS.
A big player honestly, like promiscuous, tends to have people coming in and out of his flat at odd hours all the time. Probably more than a bit of a fuckboi.
Is lowkey really beating himself over this whole thing with his father though, like over embarrassing his family the way he did and he deals with that by drinking and partying and sleeping around. Lather, rinse, repeat.
The only person from his family that he has like regular contact with is his mom, and other than that even his sweet elder sister won't talk to him she's so ashamed sdkjdskj.
Also, I feel like the Krum family is big, like I’m imagining Leks has like five siblings or something? And he’s the baby of the family, and also the scew up.
Speaks English and Bulgarian, but is more fluent in Bulgarian. Still occasionally has to think about how to say some words in English.
Can cook, and will brag about it. His food is good but he's so cocky about it that you won't want to admit that to him sdkds.
I feel like he got a modelling deal while he was still in Hogwarts or something, and it just went to his head. I feel like he modelled on and off while he was still on the Bulgaria team, and he might be instagram modelling a bit now? A concept.
a bi king!
WANTED CONNECTIONS.
wanted connections: exes, big quidditch fans who love his father, fwbs, ewbs, people who HATE HIM because he's a jerk, people who think he’s an annoying neighbour because he is, someone who has a crush on him, someone who he’s chasing after, friends he parties with, a drinking buddy, and absolutely anything else!
