Personality:
Cheerful and friendly, it’s almost impossible to see why anyone would think Antonio would do well in Slytherin. In fact, most people considered it a miracle the house hadn’t chewed him up and spat him back out. However, it becomes painfully, and somewhat frighteningly obvious why he was put in that house the minute someone messes with Lovino. He’s very protective of the younger Italian, has been since they became friends as teens.
Though it doesn’t happen often, so Antonio usually gets to run around annoying Lovino and being generally cheerful with everyone.
Pet?: Yes, a pair of turtles named Maria and Eduardo
Background:
He grew up with his grandfather on a small plot of land filled to the brim with plants. Mostly, it was a functional garden supplying them with vegetables and a few potions ingredients. His grandfather didn’t believe in using house elves so Antonio was often recruited into taking care of the plants.
Because he grew up surrounded by them, Antonio began to study plants the minute he got into school. The library had more books than his grandfather did on the exotic types that required a greenhouse to grow. Then a loud mouthed, mean little Italian brat showed up in his second year and he spent less time on book and more time on following this kid around trying to talk to him. Antonio didn’t know why, but seeing the cute little boy scare away all his potential friends made him want to become closer even more.
Maybe it was his stunning personality, or more likely Lovino just got tired of saying no, but eventually Antonio began to spend all of his free time with the other boy. He was enough of a deterrent for bullies and he enjoyed the talks they had. Well, when Lovi wasn’t yelling at him for being an idiot.
Eventually though, Antonio graduated and moved on to University. He wrote to his friend as often as he could, which was several times a week.
Relations with other characters:
Sample:
Antonio put his hand on Francis’ chest, feeling the man’s heart beating as he was kissed. when the man pulled away he sighed and flopped back on the bed. “Si, si, I will rest. Gracias for cooking for me Francis.” He smiled, watching the man’s ass as he left and then scooted up to lay properly on the bed. He closed his eyes and listened to the sound of Frenchmen milling about outside. There was a slightly annoyed note in the voice. He wondered why they were sticking around, they never had before. Were they worried Antonio would let Francis be attacked by one of his newly-made rebels?
He would never allow it. If anyone dared hurt Francis in his home then they would learn why Spain had been such a strong empire. Rolling over Antonio prepared himself to wait. It took a bit to make salmorejo and the sound of French voices and the gentle rustle of leaves was lulling him to sleep.
