==Biography==
 
Greenlemon is a sentient, anthropomorphic [[Wikipedia:Lime_(fruit)|lime]].  
 
  
Greenlemon’s childhood was spent in their birth country of Argentina with their parents, Cal and Clemintine Greenlemon. The eldest of nine siblings, Greenlemon early on proved to be adept at learning languages through talking with international students at primary school. Thus, when the Greenlemon family was given a chance to immigrate to the Dallas-Fort Worth area, Kline was able to help prepare for the move by teaching their siblings English.  
+
During the {{BetaSeason|14#Election Results|@ elections}}, Greenlemon received the {{ModLink|Maximalist}} modification as a result of the [[Seattle Garages|Garages']] receiving the {{BetaSeason|14#Blessings|'''Min-Maxing'''}} blessing.
  
===Pre-Blaseball Career===
+
Greenlemon was traded to the [[Tokyo Lift]] in exchange for [[Jessica Telephone]] during the {{BetaSeason|19#Election Results|@ elections}} via the Steaks' {{BetaSeason|19#Wills|'''Equivalent Exchange'''}} will. Greenlemon then gained the {{ModLink|Outdoorsy}} modification as a result of the {{BetaSeason|19#Blessings|Outdoorsy}} blessing.
From an early age, Greenlemon learned that their face had a natural tendency to decline into a frown, regardless of their mood. School friends and teachers would often check on them out of concern, even when Greenlemon was feeling cheery. Not wanting to worry anyone around them, Greenlemon began making it a habit to smile often and deliberately, projecting emotions onto their features. Finding pleasure in this act of emoting, Greenlemon felt inclined to begin acting.
 
  
Greenlemon’s first acting jobs were television commercials for local small businesses, most prolifically advertising pine air fresheners for the neighborhood car wash. After finding success, Greenlemon moved from Dallas to Los Angeles for larger acting opportunities.  Greenlemon was still living in Los Angeles when the Internet League Blaseball started its first season, and was standing on the corner of Hollywood and Vine on Season 3 Day 73, at the time of [[The Grand Unslam]].
+
During the {{BetaSeason|22#Election Results|@ elections}}, Greenlemon gained the {{ModLink|Subtractor}} modification as a result of the {{BetaSeason|22#Blessings|'''Subtractor Avoidance'''}} blessing.
 
+
{{Community Lore}}
As it happens, the Grand Unslam would end Greenlemon’s acting career. Among the many changes that happened to the Infinite Cit(ies) of Los Angeli, Greenlemon’s facial complexion — formerly a gentle, softly ripe yellow — changed into a more vibrant, saturated green. Coincidentally, Greenlemon’s face was now the exact color used in digital greenscreen effects, making them nearly impossible to film without disappearing into the scenery as an eldritch, half-visible film effect. After a pair of devastating rejections for underwear and soda commercials, Greenlemon decided to return to Dallas-Fort Worth.

<br />
 
 
 
=== Time with the Dallas Steaks ===
 
Returning home with their life changed by blaseball, Greenlemon decided to keep in good spirits by learning more about the splort. It was not long before Greenlemon became a common sight as a fan at the [[George Foreman Stadium]]. Over the next month, Greenlemon became a supporter of [[the Grill Master]], bringing homemade gifts of tangy marinades and flavorful pour-over juices from their parents’ recipes. As the Season 3 Postseason began, Greenlemon was encouraged to join the Grill Apprenticeship Program, but on their first day they accidentally walked into the dugout entrance instead, becoming a semi-official part of the team. They would be formally added to the team’s line-up during a game against the New York Millennials, following the incineration of [[Langley Wheeler]].
 
 
 
Since joining the team, Greenlemon’s genuine optimism and cheery attitude has made them a clubhouse favorite among fans and teammates alike. Though not a particularly headline hitter for the team, Greenlemon has proven able to clutch games out by scoring in late innings; if not winning the game directly, Greenlemon can be counted on to tie a game up and allow extra innings for their teammates to score. It is generally agreed that Greenlemon’s skills accentuate the Steaks’ individual traits, much in the same way Greenlemon’s homemade marinades accentuate the Grill Master’s cooking. Because playing the splort requires more of Greenlemon’s concentration, their face during a game usually exhibits its natural, frowning expression, though Greenlemon always makes a point to smile if they realize they are showing on the jumbotron.<br />
 
===Personal Life===
 
The Greenlemons are a large family, and while they are always welcome at the George Foreman Stadium, their established tradition is to watch blaseball games together at home. Greenlemon’s parents and siblings each have their own personalized recliner to sit in while they cheer. A notable exemption from this is Kline’s nephew, Stein Greenlemon. Having been close to his uncle his whole life, Stein much prefers to visit the stadium in person.
 
 
 
Off of the field, Greenlemon’s friendship with the Grill Master means they are one of the most likely players to be found spending lunch time with fans after a home game, almost always joined by their nephew Stein. Since Stein spends the games watching with the other fans, joking and sharing gossip, several Greenlemon family rituals are now becoming general Steak fandom rituals, most notably ‘Prank Tio Kline.’ Because Greenlemon always falls for pranks on purpose, anything that Stein found memorably funny generally gets passed around Steak fans and repeated for weeks or months to come, especially when those stories trickle down to fans who live farther away and get repeated at away game meet-ups. It is also an established rule that Greenlemon reacts to every repeated prank as though it was the first time.
 
 
 
In relationships, Greenlemon is happily asexual and aromantic themself, but is always happy to see romance bloom between others. In fact, because of Greenlemon’s natural tendencies to notice good qualities in others and bring them up in compliments, there have been many moments that started as ordinary conversations but transformed into dates after Greenlemon passed by and helped the new couple see each other in fresh lights. It was a long-standing joke among Greenlemon’s younger siblings that it was good luck to invite Kline to third-wheel one of your dates without Kline’s realizing it, and in time the other Steaks have discovered this to be true as well. Therefore the happily single Greenlemon nevertheless ends up eating many fancy dinners and candies during the Valentine holiday season.

Biography

Greenlemon is a sentient, anthropomorphic lime.

Greenlemon's childhood was spent in lims birth country of Argentina with parents Cal and Clemintine Greenlemon. The eldest of nine siblings, Greenlemon early on proved to be adept at learning languages through talking with international students at primary school. Thus, when the Greenlemon family was given a chance to immigrate to the Dallas-Fort Worth area, Kline was able to help prepare for the move by teaching lims siblings English.

Pre-Blaseball Career

From an early age, Greenlemon learned that lims face had a natural tendency to decline into a frown, regardless of their mood. School friends and teachers would often check on lim out of concern, even when Greenlemon was feeling cheery. Not wanting to worry anyone around lim, Greenlemon began making it a habit to smile often and deliberately, projecting emotions onto lims features. Finding pleasure in this act of emoting, Greenlemon felt inclined to begin acting.

Greenlemon's first acting jobs were television commercials for local small businesses, most prolifically advertising pine air fresheners for the neighborhood car wash. After finding success, Greenlemon moved from Dallas to Los Angeles for larger acting opportunities. Greenlemon was still living in Los Angeles when the Internet League Blaseball started its first season, and was standing on the corner of Hollywood and Vine on Season 3 Day 73, at the time of The Grand Unslam.

As it happens, the Grand Unslam would end Greenlemon's acting career. Among the many changes that happened to the Infinite Cit(ies) of Los Angeli, Greenlemon's facial complexion — formerly a gentle, softly ripe yellow — changed into a more vibrant, saturated green. Coincidentally, Greenlemon's face was now the exact color used in digital greenscreen effects, making lim nearly impossible to film without disappearing into the scenery as an eldritch, half-visible film effect. After a pair of devastating rejections for underwear and soda commercials, Greenlemon decided to return to Dallas-Fort Worth.

Time with the Dallas Steaks

Returning home with lims life changed by blaseball, Greenlemon decided to keep in good spirits by learning more about the splort. It was not long before Greenlemon became a common sight as a fan at the George Foreman Stadium. Over the next month, Greenlemon became a supporter of the Grill Master, bringing homemade gifts of tangy marinades and flavorful pour-over juices from lims parents' recipes. As the Season 3 Postseason began, Greenlemon was encouraged to join the Grill Apprenticeship Program, but on lims first day they accidentally walked into the dugout entrance instead, becoming a semi-official part of the team. Li would be formally added to the team’s lineup during a game against the New York Millennials, following the incineration of Langley Wheeler.

On joining the team, Greenlemon's genuine optimism and cheery attitude made lim a clubhouse favorite among fans and teammates alike. Though not a particularly headline hitter for the team, Greenlemon was able to clutch games out by scoring in late innings; if not winning the game directly, Greenlemon could be counted on to tie a game up and allow extra innings for their teammates to score. It is generally agreed that Greenlemon's skills accentuated the Steaks' individual traits, much in the same way Greenlemon's homemade marinades accentuated the Grill Master's cooking. Because playing the splort requires more of Greenlemon's concentration, lims face during a game usually exhibits its natural, frowning expression, though Greenlemon always makes a point to smile if li realizes li is showing on the jumbotron.

Off of the field, Greenlemon's friendship with the Grill Master madelim one of the players most likely to be found spending lunch time with fans after a home game, almost always joined by lims nephew Stein. Since Stein spent the games watching with the other fans, joking and sharing gossip, several Greenlemon family rituals became general Steak fandom rituals, most notably "Prank Tio Kline." Because Greenlemon always falls for pranks on purpose, anything that Stein found memorably funny would be passed around Steaks fans and repeated for weeks or months to come, finding new audiences at away game meetups when the stories trickled down to fans who live far from Dallas. It is a well-established rule that Greenlemon reacts to every repeated prank as though it was the first time.

With the Tokyo Lift

During Season 19 Greenlemon formed a strong friendship with former Lift batter Engine Eberhardt, newly arrived in the first of a series of player exchanges sometimes referred to as the Tokyo-Dallas revolving door. When Eberhardt announced a return to Japan, Greenlemon elected to tag along on an epic end-of-Season road trip. Their zig-zagging journey allowed Greenlemon to spend time in new and unfamiliar landscapes, igniting in lim a love of the outdoors. This helped lim to feel immediately at home in the Legscraper, despite having travelled from the ILB's smallest ballpark to one of its most grandiose: as Eberhardt observed, "turns out the lemon don't like being squeezed". With the Steaks' blessing this became a permanent move.

Greenlemon's prolific hitting made lim immediately popular with a brand-new set of fans, even in trying circumstances. In Season 23 Greenlemon was surprised to find limself the team's designated Subtractor, with any runs li batted in actually reducing the Lift's score. Nephew Stein declared this a hilarious prank on the part of the Hawai'i Fridays. True to form, Greenlemon would deliberately walk into it again and again (and again and again and again). Tokyo crowds continued to cheer lim on regardless.

Away from the field, Greenlemon became the friendly-but-frowning face of soda brand Klinemonade. This refreshing drink sells in huge quantities at Tokyo Lift home games, being the only product with enough zing to cut through Beef Wings sauce. Greenlemon may be famous for seeing the good in others, but rival stallholder Val Hitherto must have presented a challenge. Their respective concession stands directly face one another, with the proprietors maintaining a cool civility; during business hours Hitherto acknowledges his rival only with an occasional wordless nod. He keeps a discreet chalk tally of all the times returning this nod causes tiny, top-heavy Greenlemon to overbalance into a vat of Klinemonade.

While in Tokyo, Greenlemon developed a love for track and field, going for long runs through the city. Li would be joined by teammates including Eberhardt and Cicero Gubbins. Going on runs with Kline soon became a key part of Lift team-building, with every player taking their turn to choose a route.

Greenlemon remains close to Eberhardt and also to Kit Honey, who emerged from the Lift's Shadows on the same day Greenlemon arrived from Dallas. A running joke sees Greenlemon play the alternating roles of angel and devil on Honey's shoulders, though lims natural sunny disposition means this more often plays out as "angel and slightly frownier angel".

Personal Life

The Greenlemons are a large family, and while they are always welcome at the Legscraper (and indeed at the George Foreman Stadium) their established tradition remains to watch blaseball games together at home. Greenlemon's parents and siblings each have their own personalized recliner to sit in while they cheer. The notable exception from this is their nephew, Stein Greenlemon. Having been close to his uncle his whole life, Stein much prefers to visit the stadium in person. These visits may have become less frequent after Kline's move to Japan and as Stein grows older, but the bond remains strong.

Greenlemon is asexual and aromantic limself, but is always happy to see romance bloom between others. In fact, because of Greenlemon's natural tendencies to notice good qualities in others and bring them up in compliments, there have been many moments that started as ordinary conversations but transformed into dates after Greenlemon passed by and helped the new couple see each other in a fresh light. It was a long-standing joke among Greenlemon's younger siblings that it was good luck to invite lim to third-wheel one of your dates without lim realizing it, and in time other players have discovered this to be true as well. Thus the happily single Greenlemon nevertheless ends up eating many fancy dinners and candies during the Valentine holiday season.

Trivia

  • During Greenlemon's time with the team, not a single member of the Steaks suffered from scurvy. This record has most likely been maintained in Tokyo, but it is hard to be sure in the case of Jan Canberra.
  • During lims acting career, Greenlemon's commercials for small businesses included:
    • Advertising twine at a craft store
    • Promoting a new environmentally-friendly design of alkaline battery
    • Being a spokesperson for the grand opening of an endocrine HRT clinic
    • Singing a jingle for praline cookies.
  • Langley Wheeler's hoverboard remains hanging in Greenlemon's old Dallas locker. Greenlemon has gone on the record saying the thought of removing the hoverboard left, quote, "a sour ache" in their heart.
  • Since being introduced to the concept of "Prank Tio Kline," 7491 Steaks fans and counting have gotten Greenlemon's nose.
