However, as he grew, so did his spectrum of emotions. Still, he became inexplicably talented at keeping said emotions hidden while simultaneously maintaining his curt way of speaking. With every passing birthday, Theo became more and more difficult to read for those around him. It didn’t take long for him to be pegged as a “callous” and “judgmental” young man. Though not the full truth, these statements aren’t false either. Perhaps it’s due to growing up in a mafia family, but Theo has become a bit aloof and distant with most people he meets. It’s not that he dislikes strangers, though he does find it very difficult to trust newcomers. It’s more so that he doesn’t feel anything towards them. Neither hate nor love, like or dislike. Indifference is typically what those that are meeting him for the first time are met with. Naturally, it makes him come across as distant and unapproachable, and for those that spend enough time around him, intimidating and judgmental. Again, though not the complete spectrum of what makes Theodore, these assumptions are not too far off. Theo enjoys his distance, refusing to get close to anyone that isn’t a family member or long-term family friend. He is undeniably judgmental, capable of tearing someone down with a single look. He prefers to be alone, and so he finds it bothersome when he’s approached for anything other than business. He doesn’t care to make friends. Truthfully, he only cares to protect those he already has.
With that being said, Theo is not heartless nor uncaring. Loyalty to family is something Theo has believed in his entire life. His actions speak volumes, and though he may not verbally affirm his love for someone, his actions will speak for him. Should you have the pleasure of being accepted into his very small circle, Theodore will protect you, tooth and nail. He will unflinchingly put his life on the line for the select few he considers irreplaceable. There lies the biggest misconceptions about the young man. He is not shy and quiet, he is observant and calculated. He is not antisocial and unfriendly, he is extremely selective with who he spends his energy on. He is not uncaring and heartless, he is exclusive and saves his love and loyalty for those that earn it.
The two were happily married for three years before they had their first child, Katerina Moon. She was their princess. Everything they did revolved around her care, which is why they decided to move to Singapore where Caesar’s parents lived. Because of their line of business, being close to Caesar’s father, the boss himself, was the safest for the married couple and their little princess. His watchful eye kept them safe. About four years later, they had their second child. Theodore was a surprise for the couple, but a welcomed one nonetheless. Just like with Katerina, Theodore was loved and protected by everyone around him. The two children were polar opposites, and though Caesar always planned on allowing both of them to make their own choice on whether they’d join the business or not, the man always joked about how Theodore would become a boss so powerful he’d surpass every boss before him.
As Katerina and Theodore grew older, not only did their personalities solidify, but so did their views on the Mafia. Katerina early on made it clear that though she loved them, she wanted no part of the family business. Meanwhile Theodore became more and more like his grandfather with every passing day. One rainy Sunday night, the four of them were enjoying a family night at home when they got a call. Caesar’s father was in the hospital, hanging on by a thin thread, after being struck by a sudden heart attack. Doctors soon after speculated that he’d been dealing with a heart condition in secrecy, never truly getting the medical attention he needed. He passed away that same night, and everything fell into chaos. As soon as word got out that the boss was dead, it was an all out battle of powers. Amidst the war and mayhem, Irene found herself taken hostage by the Di Dio family, a rival mob that had been itching to overthrow the Moon Dynasty. Though Caesar did everything in his power to get her back safely, he was unsuccessful.
After Irene’s death, Katerina began to distance herself from her father and brother, and as soon as she was old enough, she moved back to London on her own. That left Theodore with only his father while the man struggled to raise his son and take over his own father’s responsibilities. Theodore saw how hard his father tried to be everything he needed while simultaneously being the fearless leader the family needed. At fifteen, Theodore had already made the decision to join his father and help him lead the dynasty in any way he could. Though he wanted to give his all to the Mafia, his father insisted he at least finish school. Theodore obliged and graduated from high school in Singapore. Very soon after, the pair uprooted the main core of the family and moved to the United States. Their chain of restaurant ventures landed them in Boston, where Theodore decided to continue his education as an international relations student, something that would aid both their organized crime and their cover up, the chain of Korean food restaurants.
It didn’t take long for Theodore to be promoted to underboss. Though some within the family were skeptical, chalking his promotion up to it being simply because he was the boss’ son, the young man quickly proved them wrong. Theodore Moon was born to be a leader, steadily earning the respect of those around him. Much like his father, he was brilliant, brave, and loyal to those he trusted. Though Boston was a bit more wild than Theodore was used to, he soon called it his home.
.IMPORTANT PEOPLE.
Caesar Moon | Father | Living | Theo and his father have a great relationship. Despite being the head boss, Caesar trusts Theodore's judgement when it comes to Moon Dynasty matters, and has made it very clear that everyone is to answer to Theo, and Theo only answers to him.
Irene Song | Mother | Deceased | Theo and his mother also had a very close relationship, despite Theo being a quiet child. He always felt like he could run to his mom anytime he needed help. She was a kind soul, and her death left Theodore with a hole in his heart that he's never quite been able to fill.
Katerina "Kat" Moon | Sister | Living | Though Katerina distanced herself from the Mafia, she didn't cut all ties with Theo. She still finds it difficult to speak to their father, but the siblings stay in frequent contact. Despite being in entirely different continents, Theodore always checks up on his older sister and makes sure she is doing okay.
Beah Montgomery | Girlfriend | Living | If you ask both Theo and Beah, they are merely friends with benefits. However, Beah's father makes sure the Moon Dynasty have pollical and commercial backing. In a way, he oversees the line of Shangri La restaurants and makes sure everything is clean and free of suspicious activity. So, in order to please Beah's father, the two play along as a loving couple despite neither one of them truly having romantic feelings for the other.
Salvador Olivera | Best friend, right hand man | Living | Salvi, as Theo affectionately calls him, is Theodore's most trusted friend. The two hit it off the moment they met and became fast friends. In a world filled with deception and distrust, Theodore trusts Salvi with his life and visa versa. The two share a brotherly bond that puts them far being being boss and his subordinate. Theo trusts and even depends on Salvi for many things.
Jake Aiden | Best Friend, Salvi's right hand man | Living | Jake is also one of Theo's few trusted, close friends. Unlike his relationship with Salvi, Theo does not depend on Jake. Not because he doesn't trust him, in fact he trusts Jake just as much as Salvi. The difference is Theo is very protective over Jake. Despite being a few years older than Theo, he's seen as the dynasty's little brother.
