    Leo was the 7th wheel on the Argo II. He was just there. And any of the seven would argue that he was the most useless. Yeah, it hurt. But, hey, at least he's the funny guy.

    Well, maybe a few of the seven would argue that he wasn't funny and was just annoying. But that's okay! At least Leo had his beautiful girlfriend, Maria. The day he met her, he developed a huge crush on her, and, like usual, he thought she would never like him back, but he was wrong. One day, she kissed him while fixing his belt in the engines, and ever since they've been dating. And she was the only one who laughed at his jokes, and that made him happy.

    Even though Maria wasn't one of the seven and had just tagged along with them, they treated her better than they treated him. But that was okay. He loved his girlfriend, and didn't mind that they included her but not him. Because she deserved it.

    One day, the seven and Maria had gotten into a pretty rough fight, and dinner was, well...tense, and awkward. So, as usual, Leo thought he should lighten the mood a little with one of his jokes, that he would argue are hilarious. And when Frank asked how they thought they would be able to survive the next attack, Leo saw his opening.

    "I try not to think. It interferes with being badshit nuts," he stated, wiggling his eyebrows at his girlfriend, making her crack a smile despite being in a bad mood, and that made him happy that he could lift her spirits. Happy until the seven shut him down.

    "Shut up, Leo! You're being annoying again," Jason snapped, and everyone murmured in agreement.

    There was a litte bit of a hurt expression on his face, but he quickly covered it up with a grin and just shrugged, looking down at his food. Life isn't always sunshine and butterflies, he reminded himself. Sometimes, you'll have to learn to smile through the pain. He once again reminded himself as he went back to eating his pizza while holding Maria's hand under the table.
