biography.
born and raised in korea.
parents spoiled him and his sister to death and made sure both of them had everything they needed to be happy.
however, whenever him & his sister were young, they lost their parents to a house fire and they were forced to go into the foster care system.
he wouldn't allow him & his sister to be separated, so they ended up being in the system for a long time until an american family took interest in both of them.
and before they even realized what was going on, lex & his sister were being shipped off to the states to meet their new family.
things were... different there, their new parents still spoiling them to death but everything around them was completely new and strange.
n bc of that, and because of the fact that lex couldn't communicate with his new parents, he began to rebel.
he started sneaking out of the house, breaking into places he shouldn't have been in.. going to parties even when he was underage and all sorts of things like that.
but he took an affinity to anything that had to do with picking locks, noticing that it kept his mind focused all while continuing to be able to 'rebel' in various sorts of ways.
after that, he focused on that, buying locks of all sorts until there wasn't a thing he couldn't break into.
however, the standard locks started to become boring, technology starting to be more and more prominent in the world so he started to teach himself how to hack as well.
not just into things, but how to 'pick' technologically advanced locks and everything like that.
he started to become so interested in that lifestyle, that he went to trade school for it.
but what he didn't expect was to meet someone there in the process, lex falling head over heels the second he laid eyes on them.
and god, he was smitten. ready to marry them within six months of meeting them. after proposing on a date and them saying yes, things were starting to kick into gear.
soon after, the wedding was planned and a date was set, but the wedding would never happen and lex wouldn't be able to spend the rest of his life with them.
his fiance was taken from him in a car accident, one he blames himself for to this day because they were headed to meet him to talk about the possibility of adopting a baby bc they couldn't have one & bc lex knew what it was like to be in the foster care system and wanted to be able to pull someone else out of that situation.
after that, alexander began to let his grief consume him, finding his home to be a bar stool at the nearest bar, drinking his sorrows away until someone practically had to carry him home.
that's when he met the mastermind of the crew, the other being nice enough to drive lex home from the bar one evening due to how intoxicated he was.
the mastermind happened to catch onto the fact that lex was very much into picking locks, into breaking into things that 'couldn't' be broken into and so he offered lex a job. quick money, no one would know it was lex at the end of the day and a reputation that'd soar for years to come.
it was then that lex's life started to turn around ever-so-slightly, becoming the best ( and only ) safe cracker that the yōkai had ever seen.
he started to grow happier, or so it seemed.
lex started to hide his grief, started to pretend he was just a happy-go-lucky goof ball on the outside while continuing to drink himself to sleep at night just to be able to get some sleep at all.
but he tried to control it as much as he could, tried to keep it inwards and not let it effect him or his job, and he never did.
alexander was/is a completely different person when he's on a heist & when the crew is all at HQ together.
the only person that knows about lex’s sister and fiance is the mastermind, though he does often send big chunks of his cuts to his sister so that his niece and nephew can remain happy, healthy and equally as spoiled as he and his sister were.
he doesn’t talk about his past life, nor does he really like opening up so very few people can see that there’s a grieving person behind the goofy exterior he tends to have.
personality.
hides behind a wall of sarcasm, cockiness, and lust.
doesn’t really care to get to know people and had a tendency to push people away before they get too close to him. because he really… doesn’t want to get hurt again & doesn’t want to put them @ risk.
but will also tease and mess with literally everyone.
wears glasses to read and mess w computers, but hates them a lot and probably won’t wear them if people are around.
is …. stubborn as hell and refuses to ask for help with anything.
his motorcyle and cars are literally his babies ??? like he ?? has a problem ??
a hotmess
loves halloween so much?? he gets so hype for that holiday it’s unreal.. even if it is his bday.
fluent in a lot of languages, picked them up so that he didn’t need translators for heists n such.
lowkey worried that people will figure out that he’s actually v hurt inside because that’ll cause him to start having to deal with his feelings again, and he doesn’t wanna do that.
is the biggest flirt you will ever meet?? like if he’s speaking 2 u… its usually flirty as hell unless it has 2 do w business or he’s just known u for centuries ?
will try to get everyone to go to bars n parties with him because that’s his life in a nutshell ??
hella nerd on the inside though like owns so many comic books, loves to play video games, read books, plays piano / violin & all that jazz.
super, super intelligent. could probably work @ nasa but instead he decided to do what he does & he honestly… ain’t complaining.
drinks..heavily.. like every night?? it’s a problem tbh.
he cares… god he cares so much about people and the world but he pretends to hate everything because it’s easier than letting people in.
full of horrible and cheesy pick up lines and jokes and frequently texts people said pick up lines and jokes.
owns a book that is full of nothing but blank pages and keeps it on his coffee table because he ‘relates’ to it.
is a highkey hoe but he keeps it on the dl
super into fitness as it’s a way to keep him away from drinking every evening. ( that doesn’t work lol )
loves boxing so much and can be seen at the gym quite a bit.. also has bruised knuckles 24/7 because of it as it’s a way to take out his aggression and feelings out on a punching bag?
speaking of… anger issues af. well... grief turned into anger.
actually super kind and caring once you’re able to see get past his wall?? which is really hard to do due to his job but if u do it he’ll cherish u.
has a bad habit of smoking whenever he’s stressed out, which is usually all of the time so he smokes…. more than he should.
highkey into cuddling and all the cute shit like that but would literally never tell a soul because then they’d see that he isn’t such a hardass.
is a burnt cupcake who has really good intentions but has extremely horrible execution skills. ( and no i don’t mean the violent kind bc he’s actually v good @ that )
