Hisoka was the kind of man in which it was impossible not to look at him a second time if you just happened to pass him in the streets.

He had a sense of theatrical flare about himself without even trying. He was a whimsical man who preferred bright and eye-catching colors, ergo his hair was constantly jumping from one brilliant hue to another, as though there was not a single color that could fully satisfy him.

There was one constant on his face, though, and that was the gold of his eyes. It was a cold gold, that made a person think of predators and poison, and they slanted slightly upwards in a way that spoke of eastern descent, though no one except Hisoka himself could be quite sure.

He was also a rather amorous sort of man, androgynous if not in natural appearance then in mannerisms and his way of speech, all charming allures and half-purred words and poetic posturing, such as the way he could effortlessly bend himself into shapes that looked as if he had lost all the bones in his body. Though he was almost taller than most men, he had a taste for high heeled shoes, and was surprisingly nimble in them as well, as he leapt and flipped and twisted around his opponents, who in reality, it was more accurate to call them his victims.

Hisoka was quietly attention-drawing, the type of drama that made him the ideal type of muse for every poet and playwright in the land.

Thus, he was the exact sort of person that Illumi disliked being around. Yet for some reason, Hisoka was at the same time the only person Illumi treated like an equal, other than his own family, and it could almost be called something akin to comradeship, if not unconventional friendship.

The names Hisoka gave his Nen abilities reflected his personality, especially the one he so lovingly called Bungee Gum. Its second name was Elastic Love, and Illumi thought that it fitted the man extremely well. Hisoka loved passionately and obsessively, all-encompassing and indiscriminate regardless of race, age, and sex, so as long as you were strong enough to pique his interest. And still, it could end at any given point in time- once his curiosity was satisfied, or if he found larger bounties to prey upon.

It was kind of fucked up, honestly.
