Sweet but aloof, artistic and pessimistic, Vinci is the type of person who has the potential to shine, but not enough confidence to pull it off.

Although at first glance, you might think him the more flamboyant of the duo, this is far from the case. Vinci prefers to be the one quietly following in his charismatic partner's footsteps. Being a bit more practical, he feels it is his job to stop the yumar from putting his foot in his mouth. Actually, he's far too slow on the draw for this, but hey, he tries.

Having recently moved to the United States, Vinci is still new to many things, and more experienced than he lets on in others. He's actually quite booksmart, but the problem is that he's got so much whirring around in his head (in three different languages, no less), that it's often hard for him to sort out. A perfectionist, this causes him to become easily frustrated with himself, and on a whole, he tends to be self-conscious. Imagine being quite wordy in your native tongue, and then barely able to get the point across in another language!

He gets embarrassed by his thick accent and the occasional language flub here and there, but he's better at English than he perceives himself to be, and he usually makes perfect sense, even if his words aren't in the perfect order.

Vinci has just stumbled into a job as a senior interior designer. He's not sure if it's actually his true calling, given that his coworkers are either playing pranks on him or are actually out for blood.

He's certainly not as outgoing as Arty is, and he is shy, but Vinci is a warm conversationalist and once he gets going, it can be hard to stop him from yakking it up! Particularly if you get him started on one of his favorite subjects, Greece and baking. He still manages to retain an aloofness in regards to a lot about himself, which should probably be an alarm-bell to Artisan.

Vinci hints at having made some bad choices in life, but he's also keen on not talking about them. We've just learned that he was addicted to both alcohol and heroin at one point. The latter appears to be completely out of his life; the former is still a problem now and then since he's well, let's be honest, a cheap drunk.

He can be rather passive-aggressive, choosing to brood quietly instead of being honest. Although this is non-confrontational, it's also quite a dangerous stance to take, particularly given how open and truthful Arty is. Vinci also prefers keeping his relationship under wraps, as opposed to Arty, who is comfortable and frank about it.

Though awkward looking and not terribly attractive, Vinci has inherited the typical procyon adorability factor, and often uses this to his advantage, whether he's conscious of it or not. According to him, he would much prefer being seen as a fierce wild animal, rather than a cute cuddly thing, but he can only hold the grouch routine for so long.

Vinci's hobbies are painting (he sells his work as a freelance artist), egging Arty on, regretting having egged Arty on after they both get in trouble, and baking. He's good at the first three, horrid at the last. No one seems to have the heart to break it to him yet.

In short, Vinci's a bad person with a good heart or a good person with some bad habits, depending on how you look at it. He's trying to become more independent and self-assured, but he has a long road ahead of him still. Hopefully, he will also overcome his negativity and destructive tendencies before he drives an even bigger wedge between himself and those he loves.

Bitter. That about describes Arty perfectly. He's pompous, he's argumentative, he's vain.. well, he's a typical cat!

That said, he's not a bad guy. Sure, he's loud and ranty, but Arty is an honest, passionate fellow who wears his heart on his sleeve. He's incredibly dedicated to his partner, his faith, his family and.. yeah, even his job.

Artisan is a cutie-patootie and he knows it. He also wants -you- to know it and has no problem telling you. Repeatedly. He's very confident, although he might be playing up his ego a bit for kicks or compensation. It's hard to say. His confidence seems to be the backbone of a lot of strength, making it easy for him not only to ream into "morons" at work, but also to sit down with someone and discuss things honestly and openly. He has no problem putting his feelings and opinions on the table, and is baffled by Vinci's habit of bottling up.

Intelligent and very opinionated, Arty sometimes has trouble grasping the concept that not everyone is going to agree with him, and that those who disagree aren't automatically wrong. He can get pretty defensive, and whether he knows it or not, he can be something of an instigator. His short fuse can be a problem sometimes, he can jump off the handle quite easily and often needs to be calmed down before he becomes irrational.

Artisan was crushed by his father's suicide eleven years ago, and it remains a dark cloud over his life and the source of a lot of his anger. He still is furious at his father, and at times, he blames himself for it.

During his college years, Arty was a bit of an activist, but has retired that part of his life for Vinci's sake. He still dreams of becoming a famous singer, however, and he's got quite the voice. He's just waiting to be discovered.

Artisan is very charismatic and can definitely carry an audience with his enthusiasm and often flamboyant behavior. He's the dreamer and the romantic of the pair, often cooking up crazy schemes and getting himself and Vinci in trouble.

Arty loves Vinci and is very devoted to him, even if he can't figure him out most of the time. He's learning to listen more to his partner. He's been warned by a trusted old friend that Vinci might not be as honest and innocent as he makes himself out to be, but it's yet to be determined whether Arty will take this into consideration. Love is blind, in more ways than one. Let's hope that Artisan isn't badly hurt by what appears to be a tempest brewing.

Currently she's at slight odds with her son's vehement dislike of her new boyfriend, Tom.

Oh, you don't have to call her Nalya or Mrs. Sunspot. She would prefer if you call her "Mom".

Kelly is going through a bit of a lonely phase, and an identity crisis. She seems very self-conscious of her yumarian heritage, and wishes she were a "normal cheetah", to the point of shaving her head and dyeing what's left of her mane.

Actually she's not really a cat, but a "scaredycat", a type of goblin. Tech support is her side job. Her other career as a Warlock Assistant only demands one day of work, Halloween, so she is forced to deal with Arty, Arkie, and the rest of Dolphin Tech for the other 364 days of the year.
