This is Carlile, back with something pointless. Yay!
I decided to make some crappy little headcanon-based stuff on the characters of KHR. The first one is Basil. Consider this his early birthday present. (:
Anyhow, this is interactive. Yes! You readers can absolutely feel free to request a character or something for him/her to do. I've already done Hibari, Mukuro, Gokudera and Tsuna's chapters (plus I have one request from a friend for Shoichi.) Just review or PM. I will keep with this project!
I don't own KHR, just my crazy ideas about the characters. And the OCs I include. Don't worry - I won't go too in-depth for them.
Damn this is an awkward author's note... ^^'

A Day in the Life of…
Basil!
The Day
5:00 am
Wakes up.
5:01 – 5:05
Yaaaaaaaaawwwwnns~ Waits for brain to kick in. (Low blood pressure.)
5:06 – 5:45
Workout: stretches, crunches, pushups and 30 minutes of running on the treadmill while watching the news.
5:46 – 5:55
Scalding hot shower. Is a good, picky Italian about clothes afterwards.
5:56 – 6:15
Epic morning feast.
6:16 – 6:25
Finishes getting ready. (Most of this time is spent on hair.)
6:26 – 6:30
Gathers school things. Walks next door to Lady Rosemary's and waits for her to come out.
6:31 – 6:45
With Lady Rosemary, meets up with Lord Gokudera in the parking lot (if he's there) and then walks together to Lord Sawada's house.
6:46 – 7:05
Walks in a large group from Lord Sawada's to school.
7:06 – 7:29
Three choices: classroom cleaning (Mondays), Kendo Club meetings (Tuesdays) or chilling with friends.
7:30
Should be in homeroom by now (Class B.)
7:31 – 7:35
Attendance and morning announcements.
7:36 – 8:35
Lit class. Enjoys it.
8:36 – 9:35
History class. Takes diligent notes.
9:36 – 11:30
Electives – art and theatre. Awesome.
11:31 am – 12:59 pm
Open campus lunch! Usually eats up on the school roof with big group of friends. Occasionally goes out to a restaurant, visits Lord Sawada's house or quickly runs back to apartment if something was forgotten. Lunch is huuuuge.
1:00 – 1:30
Kendo class, which is arguably better than regular PE.
1:31 – 2:30
Suffers through math, his least favorite subject.
2:31 – 3:30
Science class is last.
3:31 – 4:15 on Mondays & Tuesdays
Classroom cleaning (Mondays) & Shakespeare Club meeting in the library (Tuesdays.)
3:31 – 6:00 on Wednesdays, Thursdays & Fridays, 4:16 – 6:00 on Mondays & Tuesdays
Various non-school-related activities. Changes daily, but usually involves some amount of time doing CEDEF and/or Vongola work. Tries to get around to homework. Always takes time to sharpen sword skills.
6:01 – 6:45
Goes to Lord Sawada's house to eat him out of house and home, on most days. If not, goes to an all-you-can-eat restaurant or just eats at his apartment.
6:46 – 8:30
If there is a test coming up, goes to cram class. If not, continues non-school-related activities.
8:31 – 8:59
Comes home if not already there. Finishes homework and calls Lady Rosemary to chat if there is time.
9:00 pm
Early to bed and early to rise makes a man happy, healthy and wise. (:
Repeat.
The Life
Basil will never know who his real parents are, what his real birthday is, or what a normal life would be. But that's okay.
Iemitsu Sawada just found a newborn baby boy on the front doorstep of the CEDEF base one July morning. Having no idea to whom the baby belonged or from where it came, Iemitsu took the baby inside, where it was automatically accepted by everyone else in the CEDEF organization.
The baby was adopted by Iemitsu and a female CEDEF member nicknamed Oregano, who was only 13 years old at the time the baby was found. He was never given a real name, instead the CEDEF-based alias, Basilicum, Basil for short. He grew up around the rest of the CEDEF members and was trained to be an efficient and loyal hitman since the day he could walk. Now he is one of the most talented swordsmen in the mafia, and a wildly successful assassin – though one could never tell from Basil's sweet, polite disposition.
Growing up, Basil was fascinated by his adoptive father's Japanese roots, thus finding himself adopting many aspects of Asian culture and becoming a scholar in Japanese history. He also loves literature and old Japanese folktales.
And, well, the rest is history. (:
These days, Basil finds himself quite busy as he has become the leader of the CEDEF Organization. He is also Tsuna Sawada's Outside Advisor (and adoptive brother.) He is dating Tsuna's secretary, another CEDEF member named Rosemary. The two of them live in apartments that are right next door to each other. Hayato Gokudera lives in the same building as they do. Basil is loving his life in Japan, making many friends. He is fluent in multiple languages, including Italian, Spanish, French, Russian, Arabic, English, Chinese and Japanese. Although he is perfectly able to speak normally, he likes using old-fashioned terms and speech patterns for fun. He says that if he were not in the mafia, he would want to be a linguist.
