Minor spoilers, but: Lucy’s description of Dr. Seward only gets better/funnier after you get to his diary entries and find out how much of a mess this “one of the most resolute”, “the most calm”, “absolutely imperturbable” man actually is.

Headcanon for IshiLeon. AU, in which Leon and Kiyotaka met as children :)
(to put it simply, in this AU, the entire 78 class is children who are in the same kindergarten group. I don't know much about Japan, so I write by my own standards)
— Actually, Leon and Kiyotaka didn't become friends right away. It was enough for them to know that they were in the same group. And have a small opinion of each other. Both treated each other neutrally, although they had small pretensions, on which they did not communicate. Kiyotaka disliked Leon's disobedience, and Leon considered him "a bore who forbids fun." It was quite expected, knowing their characters, don't you think?
— Kiyotaka was the child who tells the teacher about everything that happens around, meaning that someone is doing something wrong. Leon isn't as bad as he looks, but.. He still got hit a lot. Mostly thanks to Kiyotaka.
— Leon had two friends at the time. It was obviously Mondo and Chihiro. He had known Chihiro for a long time, since they lived close to each other and their parents were friends. But Kiyotaka's... Yes, he tried to keep in touch with everyone he could. But he didn't have anyone special. I think it's a little sad.
— Maybe that's why Leon decided to be friends with Kiyotaka. He noticed that the boy often sits alone and once decided to talk to him. At that time, he was not busy - Mondo was fighting with Junko for a place in the sandbox, and Chihiro was doing some other things with Makoto.
Leon's attention was drawn to the fact that the boy was a bore (not in an offensive way!!) sits alone and seems to be looking a little glum. All over the Playground, children were laughing, chatting, and just playing, while Kiyotaka sat with a calm face, swaying slightly on the blue swing. The red-haired boy came up to him and tried to speak.
- Hello? he wasn't sure if Kio would talk to him, but it wasn't torture, as they say. - are you sitting here alone?
The boy perked up a little when he saw that they were paying attention to him. And in response to the question, he just nodded silently.
"Isn't it boring?" Leon hung on to the swing post, still looking at Kiyotaka.
"I'm used to it, it's all right! Don't worry about me! Taka said this in a calm tone that suggested that he was really used to it.
"How are you used to it?" Weird. - ginger really did not understand how you can not be bored, sitting alone, and even just rocking. - you haven't tried to approach others?
-Of course I have! - Taka frowned. - but when I approached, they didn't really want to talk to me. So, I just won't bother anyone.
"Well, yes, you are a little.. You're strict about everything. But did you interfere with EVERYONE? - he got nothing in return, only that Taka turned his back on him. "Hey, you don't like what I said? I didn't mean anything bad! Although, you really are a bit.. Harmful.
-I'm not harmful, I'm useful! - Taka turned back. - if people around me do something wrong, and I put everything in order means that I eliminate violations!
- .. is it worth constantly thinking about it?
- Of course! Messing around isn't going to end well! So you need to watch out!
-But why always take into account whether there is an order or not? And even more so, you pay too much attention to this!
- Really?
-Yes. - Leon was not going to quarrel with him, but just tried to tell the truth. He expected Taka to say something else strange or stubborn, but Nothing happened.
- I still think it's the right thing to do. - the cheerfulness in Kiyotaka's voice faded, and he mumbled it under his breath, then began to stare at the ground.
-I don't want to argue with you about this little thing. And anyway, I wanted to play with you!
- Play? - the boy's bright red eyes were directed directly at Leon.
- Yes! So go ahead. I'll rock you and then you rock me, okay?
-C-come on.
They spent the next 10 minutes like this. It was the first time Leon had ever heard Kiyotaka laugh so sweetly. He in general loved the laughter of the people is meant that they are good. And when Leon was the cause of their laughter, he was ready to shine like the sun. So this little time spent with Kiyotaka made him smile the most genuine smile he could. From that point on, Leon started talking to Kiyotaka more often.
—Once they had a rather funny conversation, after which Taka got a funny nickname. "Owl boy."
- You remind me of someone... - two boys were sitting at a table, spending time together drawing whatever they could think of.
- Is there anyone I look like? -Taka raised his head.
- Yes... Hmm.. - Leon adopted a thoughtful face and also thoughtfully put his index finger and thumb to his chin. After half a minute, he understood and quickly raised a finger to Kiyotaki's face. - exactly! Your eyebrows!
- Eyebrows..? What do you mean?
- You're a bird! I forget what it's called, but you sure look like a bird!
-Bird.. Sounds great.. Who are you talking about?
-I'm forgo-ot. - a little handed ginger. "she is.. Hmm... Big! And she has big round eyes!
- Big bird with round eyes...?" asked Taka, trying to remember who Leon might be referring to.
- Exactly! She still screams funny!
- I think I understand. Are you talking about the owl? Do I look like an owl?
-Yes, that's it! - Leon clapped his hands excitedly, glad to finally remember the bird's name.
-Then why did you notice my eyebrows" Owls don't have them. - Taka looked over Leon's shoulder at the stuffed animals lying nearby. He got up, picked up a small purple owl with yellow eyes, and brought it to them. - look, he doesn't have any!
- This is an owl, it is clear that they do not have them! And the filins have! Not exactly like yours, but... It is very similar!! Leon grabbed an unfashionable red pencil and drew a slightly clumsy drawing of what he was talking about. - Owl with eyebrows! - he handed it to Taka. He looked at the drawing of the bird and understood what Leon was talking about.
-Oh, I see. Filin..
- You look more like an owl, though. The filins are big and scary, and you're a little and... Almost not terrible. - Leon smiled good-naturedly.
-Then who am I?
-Um.. You'll be an owl.
-Well.
- Owl boy!
- I like it. Taka smiled.
Maybe Leon didn't call him that often, but it was a habit. Taka, in turn, was very happy about this, because it meant that he and Leon got along well.
— By the way, let's talk about Mondo and Chihiro. After Leon began to communicate with Kiyotaka very often, Chihiro suggested that they play together. And it was great.
— Mondo and Kiyotaka often quarreled over small things, but even so, they quickly made up. Therefore, the four of them could be considered very cozy and friendly.
— Over time, Leon began to call Kiyotaka not only "Taka", but also short - "Ishi". He said that his mother, when things were going well with him and his father, shortened his name to appear affectionate towards him. Taka appreciated this and was happy to let Leon call him that.
—All the time they spent in the garden, they were very close friends. Unfortunately, their paths diverged when entering primary school.
— But!!! Guess what? They met again at the peak of Hope! Here everything is according to the canon - Taka became an absolute moral compass, and Leon - an absolute baseball player.
— In the first days of his visit, Leon only looked at Taka. He had the eternal feeling that he had seen this "big-browed and loud guy" somewhere before, but he couldn't remember where he might have met him.
— Kiyotaka himself also had some sort of detached feeling that Leon had already met him before. But he was sure it was just a feeling. Leon and Leon, name as name. He didn't feel anything else familiar.
—But you do realize that they ended up remembering their childhood years, don't you? After about a month of training.
— Leon casually asked if they had met before, and Kiyotaka nodded in surprise but approval. "I didn't expect to be the only one feeling this.. I could be wrong." he said. After a moment of silence, Leon spoke again.
-You know, I have something on the tip of my tongue... Your last name. Ishimaru. Ishi sounds more familiar.
-Oh, they used to call me that! Someone.
-Um.. Leon looked at Kiyotaka's face and suddenly had an idea.
-What is it? - Kiyotaka noticed his puzzled look.
-If it's really you... Haha, you've grown from an owl to big filin. - Leon ventured to say something that only the very person he was thinking of could remember. He don't want to look stupid, but that little boy and this guy were too much alike.
- Owl?.. - Taka pointed at him. - you're the one who always stole candy in kindergarten! That's right, it's you!
-I didn't know you remembered me as a thief. - Leon rolled his eyes and crossed his arms. - but if that's the case, then you're the one, right?..
- Yes! I'm happy to give up and meet you again! If you don't mind, can we talk again?!
-Yes, I don't mind. And stop yelling like that.
- But this is my normal voice. the guy replied in a calmer voice.
-Oh, I forgot. Filin. - Leon grinned.
Their subsequent relationship went smoothly. Despite the passing years and their somewhat different personalities, they became good friends.
Or maybe even more?.. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
This is where I end my heads. It came out as big snippets of one fanfiction. Actually, I like the whole idea and would love to develop it, but... I don't think I can do that. All right, I'll say goodbye to you! Bye! :) I hope you enjoyed it.
