I WALK THIS EMPTY STREET
[/color][/font][/center]Personality
[/font][/center]DISLIKES: Vegetables, Boring people, staying still (Ricky gets it from him), racists, supremacists in general, and young boys chasing after his daughters.
LIKES: The Weasleys, junk food, music, dancing, having fun, reading, running.
BAD HABITS: He's some times too lenient, especially on Ricky. Libby has told him a few times that he needs to toughen up.
Lee is very loud. He honestly doesn't realize that he's being loud either until he's told to shush.
Has the habit of being very forgetful. For example, Libby's birthday. He can tell you the month, but not the day...so basically he'll just buy her something for every day of the month.
GOOD HABITS:
Hey may forget everything else, but he never forgets to write his children.
He's hyperactive, but to the point that he get's things done in good fashion.
Almost always on time.
WEAKNESSES:
-His girls; all three of them.
- Strawberries. You just say the word and his ears perk right up.
- Saying no. It never wants to seem too strict or harsh, so he says yes. A lot.
- He won't admit it, but his sight is dully a great deal.
- Listening. Even though he is a grown man, Lee still finds listening difficult. Poor Libby spends forever trying to explain things to him at times.
STRENGTHS:
-Kindness. He has an opened mind, and open heart. If you need him, he's there.
- Being personable. Lee can appeal to just about anyone.
- Talking. He can talk about anything forever. Comes from being on the radio.
- Writing.
- Creativity.
PERSONALITY: Just like his ultra hip face-claim, Lee prides himself on being cool and easy going. He's understandable to a fault, and doesn't like to get upset, or angry much. He doesn't see the point in walking around in a rage.
He can be quit bold at times, and very blunt; just like Ricky. He may not know what the word quiet means, but knows how to respect boundaries. He doesn't annoy easily, and if you need something, absolutely need it, Lee is your man.
If you're his friend, and you've been there for him, he returns the favor.
He may be easy going and laid back, but he also has his serious side, like when Ricky was sick. He was so worried, and deeply focused on keeping his well. He even developed a caffeine addiction, and some times finds it hard to sleep. He worries, a lot, but never really vocalises his worries. The only person that can really seem to tell when he is worried is George, and some times Libby.
Lee also loves to have fun, any time any place. When he and George get together, it's like having five year olds all over again.

PATRONUS: Both Felicity and Ricky's births. But to be honest, Ricky's birth scared him shitless -- he didn't think he could raise a girl. He knew what boys were like; but you have to be gentle with girls. He didn't think he could do it.

HISTORY:
Early history here
Lee Jordan and Libby Moon were never meant to be. At Hogwarts, they moved in different circles; one Gryffindor and one Slytherin. Lee was two years ahead, so their paths hardly crossed, and their backgrounds were worlds apart. Lee came from an ordinary, halfblood, middle-income family; his parents both had fairly insignificant Ministry jobs and at Hogwarts, of course, he made friends with people like the Weasley twins. Libby, on the other hand, came from a family who prided themselves on their Slytherin roots. They weren’t a family like the Malfoys; they had less money than the Weasleys, and lived in a dark, grubby little house off Knockturn Alley. Their ‘Slytherin-ness’ was all the Moons really had to be proud of, so they made the most of it. However, there was not much love in their house.
Lee and Libby were neither friends nor enemies; they hardly knew of each other’s existence. Nobody would have thought to pair their names together in any way. But as Libby grew up, she grew away from her family – she wanted to make more of herself, and to have a family where there was love and laughter.
Libby left with the other Slytherins before the Battle of Hogwarts, because she was afraid to do anything else, and would have regretted that decision all her life, if it hadn’t been for what happened afterwards. The Slytherins, along with all the underage students, were hurried out of the Hog’s Head, but as they left, Libby saw a small child detach himself from the group and slip back, towards Hogwarts. Horrified, she went after him, unseen by anyone else. However, before she caught him, he was discovered by a Death Eater on an indiscriminate killing spree. The short version of the story is that Libby, with the element of surprise on her side, disarmed the Death Eater, saving the life of the little boy. By this time, the rest of the students had departed from the village and the battle was getting underway. Libby took the boy back to the Hog’s Head, despite his demands to ‘go and fight’ and stayed with him there for the rest of the night, listening to the sounds of the battle raging.
Later, when the boy was reunited with his family, they came and found Libby and thanked her for keeping him safe. That boy was Aaron Jordan, 1st Year nephew of Lee Jordan, and Libby and Lee met for the first time.
Again, telling the short version of the story, Libby and Lee fell in love, had a child (Erica), got married and had another child (Felicity), in that order.
Lee continued to run his radio station, although it's now called Jordan River, not Potterwatch. Libby opened a cafe in Diagon Alley, and got the family she'd always wanted. They moved into a house on a small residential side street off the Alley, where their children grew up. Libby often took her daughters to work with her, and Ricky grew up running around the cafe, charming (or annoying, depending on their disposition) the customers and 'helping out.' As she got older, she was allowed out into Diagon Alley more, so she knows the street extremely well, and all the people who work in the shops there are old friends of hers.
Lee remained great friends with George Weasley.

Lee remained great friends with George Weasley.
Last year, when Erica got sick, Lee nearly lost it. The last twenty or so years of his life had been pleasant with little to no strife. Of course there was strife around the first of every May, when George would go into a tizzy over Fred and Lee would too, but Erica's sickness was a different type of fear. Lee was literally afraid his daughter would die. He didn't know what to do to comfort his wife, or his younger daughter, either. Fefe, his youngest, cried every night for her older sister, afraid that she wouldn't survive. It was up to Lee to hold it all together.
Libby wasn't fairing well, as she fought with her daughter's impending death. Things became slightly strained for the couple, and Lee and Libby argued. They got through their arguing every time, though. They did it for their daughter and miraculously, Erica survived. She had to be put a year back in Hogwarts, but she was alive; that was more than Lee could ever ask for.
