CHARACTER: Misaki Yata
CANON: K Project

AU NAME: Misaki Yata
AU AGE: 21
AU OCCUPATION: rookie police officer...................
BLURB:
- Born and raised in Recolle! His dad's a good and honest cop who died on the job protecting him, so he wants to follow in his footsteps and become an ally of justice, just like him! He wants!! to protect!!! THIS CITY!!!!!!
- (actually also just wants to find the people who killed his dad but anyway)
- That also means he had to help his sweet and perfect widow mother take care of his siblings. He's very family-oriented and probably wants kids of his own before he turns 30 or something.
- Lives alone in the shittier side of town but visits his mother and his siblings often.
- He wants to be a detective or something, but god, he's so dumb. He's so dumb. He had to repeat his senior year in high school. He didn't go to college so he can support his mother and siblings. Also, he couldn't pass the entrance exam anyway.
- Hot-blooded, temperamental, energetic and reckless, but probably less violent and prone to swearing than in canon. Gotta keep his act clean for the kids!
- Since he grew up with a lot of friends and a loving family, he's less lonely. Also, less prone to suddenly leaving everything for a life of crime.
- He's adorkable, bright and thoughtful, but he also wants to look cool and tough, so he's often at odds with himself and it's hilarious.
- He dyed his hair because IT'S COOL, but he doesn't want tattoos because he's a weenie. :(
- Grew up watching superhero shows, collecting trading cards and playing video games. He still does all of these.
- Stupidly athletic. Was probably part of a varsity team in, but not sure... which one... I'm thinking baseball.
- A DDR champion for 2 years in a row at one point.
- Doesn't know how to ride a skateboard. Knows how to drive a car, at least...
- Still can't talk to women.
- He was probably assigned to a case that involved a strip club at one point but blew his cover because he saw a nipple and squealed. Like, literally.
- Don't call him Misaki. Don't call him Missy. Don't call him short, don't call him cute, don't call him chihuahua, dON'T LOOK DOWN ON HIS PRECINCT
- Sometimes forgets guns are a thing, so he ends up punching and kicking things more often than he should.
- An ally of justice and peace, but also teaches kids to beat up bullies. So... maybe scratch peace.
- Judges people for their crimes. like if you're going to steal something, at least make it ten grand? wtf
- Believes in the Power of Friendship

LOOKING FOR:
- His AU mom? He's a mama's boy who thinks she can do no wrong.
- Siblings!!! He's the best big brother. He can be your pesky little brother too.
- Colleagues and mentors. I want everything: people who'll keep him in line, people who will save him from his idiocy, and That One Officer he looks up to? Please. He'd be their quintessential fanboy. Or maybe your character was on his father's team and he blames you for his death idk.
- People who look up to him or people he might have helped out at any point in time because of his Hero Complex.
- Childhood friends, former classmates, etc. JUST. FRIENDS. He can be friends with literally anybody.
- People whom he probably clash with given his temper, values and Strong Sense of Justice.
- Trolls because he's so dumb. He's so dumb...
- People who might have had a crush on him or vice versa? But he's hopelessly simultaneously shy and oblivious, so any previous established relationships are out of the question.
- anything

[standalonehuman]

Officer Hitori Togusa, how you doing, for colleagues?

.....but that one line is so oddly specific, this is the point where I have to ask if you know any DDR champions?

[rollin]

yes please!! yata may keep his hands full with all the screwups he'll be making... one day he'll blow up at the superintendent and togusa might have to do more than stare in abject horror

and no but i've heard of tournaments and ddr has always been the most Intense

yata is Intense

[roseblooms]

I HEARD MAMAS BOYS WHO NEED A REASONABLE FRIEND™ TO HELP KEEP THEM FROM BEING COMPLETE IDIOTS

[rollin]

man kurama you're so smart!!!

is probably what yata's catchphrase would be around him

in turn yata can stop him from dancing at the club because oh my god

[bitemefightme]

Homg, a Yata~

How would you like a shitheaded, schizpphrenic, messy friend or family member? Or, I'm also totally game for an officer constantly harassing Orion for his bullshit. He needs it.

[rhapsodeity]

ok so jade's a girl but look... she grew up in an overachiever family, her father is a detective who is a reformed delinquent so she. supports all this? please. her dad, bigby wolf in game, actually works homicide HAHA so a lot of this would be easy to work with tbh...

she grew up in recolle too, so they could have known each other before if you'd like, but! she also hangs out at the precinct and is the girl bringing in donuts all the time :o

[erythristic]

this is more of an indirect colleague thing, but Grell's a medical examiner who works closely with the police, so if he ever has reason to go by the office or needs to get lessons in pathology type things, i'm more than willing to have her be the one he talks to!

[littlekittens]

how about a huge cat lover for former classmate/potentially friend?



also since the character is already have in the game is best friends with Togusa up there, Yata might have met Koutarou on occasion

[scriptive]

HOW SHORT IS HE, levy is possibly shorter. She's Probably 19, so they could have maybe overlapped in school a bit - also her mom owns a comic book shop and she is Mad Into Trading Card Games. play them with her?

[caelestialis]

Ainsley could have been his elementary school teacher in the past! She would have done her best to be super supportive and encouraging in his interests when he was in her classroom. Would have been there for him and cheered him on if you're alright with the idea of her keeping in touch with him and seeing how he was doing. o /

I also have Roderic (foretellable) - He's a little kid and he already has a family but he needs more friends. Especially people who can draw him out of his shy shell and make him talk more and stuff.

[cattack]

so i bugged you on plurk but these two need to be friends somehow

[truedetective]

Naoto's father was a police detective who was murdered (along with her mom) so they'd have that in common? Though she is a few years younger than him.

[me_matey]

a rookie cop for her to harass?

say no more, fam

[hinokopter]

SO HOW ABOUT HIGH SCHOOL CLASSMATES? Because really, it's not Hinoka without a bumbling idiot to momfriend over. Someone who appreciates that enthusiasm for doing the right thing but who can help him rein it in, basically.

[undergrowl]

Baseball!! I come here to approve wholeheartedly of the whole baseball angle - Koushuu's been around the Recolle area long enough that maybe Yata was a previous senpai? It's sort of like siblings.

[buncho]

punches yata and then i read your blurb and now i feel bad lmao... but i stand by my maiden heart comment

mafuyu is here to keep yata busy with his policing!! probably over little things like being disruptive in stores and egging houses to get back at people, idk. maybe she makes trouble whenever yata is going around his rounds because it's fun. notice her.

[mercurio]

prompto can't believe the shrimp a year above him in high school is a police officer, and that he gets to deliver donuts to him.......

i'd love for them to have been friends from school, even if they didn't talk much. prompto will now proceed to show his disbelief at him being a copper? LMAO..

[mouseketeerish]

MAKO IS ALSO A rookie cop. Less rookie now. And also is on a mission to find who killed his parents.

Let's have passing conversations over the coffee pot.

[chuusai]

Hi!! Cherche's player dropped me a comment to talk AU family things so I wanted to come say I would love to have Mao be the little brother in this scenario. Mao's also athletic and he would've worked hard to kick his brother's butt at DDR but only because he's not very good at other video games. They share the Power of Friendship, the bright and thoughtful, I just think this could really work out!

[adoringpast]

hello!! so i talked to mao and cherche's players so i might as well tell you too -- i hope it's all right if izumi here would be a close family friend since they're neighbors and all? because his parents are very busy that they don't have time for him, he might be staying at your place for a couple nights and help around i guess.

but uh. izumi here is actually kind of a jerk so he might class heads with yata sometimes. he'll mostly be civil about it but. you know.

[belligerentwarrior]

Hot-blooded, temperamental, energetic, reckless, into sports, and her age? Sounds like a hellion team in the making. Former classmates of some sort? Also Freya'd totally tease him about the tattoo thing if he ever expressed interest but backed out.

[fairhands]

so I saw that you're gonna have CR with Yukine and I play Yukine's momdad!! and since Yata is Making An Attempt with his delinquent son I feel like they should meet some how. His husband/ Yukine's bio dad is also on the force as a police detective so idk they could meet when Marcell came over to bring husband his lunch at some point, especially since I imagine he occasionally brings snacks for the rest of the station to grab if they want to.

[megatechbody]

How about a hot older colleague that enjoys teasing him (well-meaning of course, the Hero of Justice thing is cute.)?

[wherethewildthingsare]

HELLO!!

I'm going to be playing Yukine's biodad and since you have CR with him I am also dropping in here (especially since biodad is also a police detective) please help him deal with his rebellious son, it's hard
