Chiaki Morisawa | Ensemble Stars!

[sundays]

PLAYER: Dana
CHARACTER: Chiaki Morisawa
CANON: Ensemble Stars!

AU NAME: Chiaki Aoi
AU AGE: 19!
AU OCCUPATION: College Student/RA/Odd Jobs!
BLURB:
☆ the eldest sibling of the Aois, Rise (pseudonyms) and Hinata (livens), cousin to Izumi Miyamura (akatatai)
☆ absolutely love love love love loves his family more than anything, if you know them you've heard of him or probably met him!
☆ embarrassing as hell regarding the above bc he still carries around bandaids (hello kitty or power rangers) for them even though they're not 5 anymore, also always has hair clips and hair ties (still hello kitty) for this reason
☆ moved to Recollé from Japan 10 years ago with the rest of his family, so he's been in the city since he was 9!
☆ THAT SAID HE'S BEEN OUT OF THE CITY FOR THE PAST YEAR (since August-ish!) bc he made the attempt to leave the city to go to college... but considering that all messaging between the outside and the city was cut off, and he's really attached to his friends and family, his attempt didn't go well
☆ so he's coming home!
☆ however from age 9 up to high school graduation, he's always been a bit of a golden boy! kind, friendly, sweet, shameless
☆ absolutely a fucking jock. he was Captain of the Recollé High Wildcats Basketball Team because this is an anime Troy Bolton AU I'm not even going to hide it. but he's also just overall athletic and good at 90% of sports.
☆ AN OVERACHIEVER. made it to Honor Roll (if barely), he would help any and every club that needed help, volunteer on the weekends, and still show up at 2 AM if a friend called him in distress
☆ a giant heroes nerd. every kind of hero. anime, superhero comics, especially tokusatsu. he's been inspired by them since he was small and wants to be a hero!
☆ as a result, he's studying Fire Science and trying to get the proper training to be a firefighter!
☆ buuuut when he went off to college for his first year, he found himself overwhelmed. his grades dropped. his support system was impossible to reach. he didn't fit in. he took on too many responsibilities and burnt out like a plane crash at uni
☆ it's left him with an overwhelming sense of failure, anxiety, depleted self-esteem, and uncertainty about who he is. :') we're getting those sad megane feels
☆ which he naturally hides behind a smile and acts like nothing's wrong bc he's trying very hard to remember who he used to be!
☆ thanks to RP Magic he's finishing up his credits and transferring to Recollé U, but definitely going to be an RA because clearly you can run away from your problems by doing the same things that led to them!
☆ and he has A Voice but you'll only hear him singing in the shower or in the car and it's always, always to anime openings or top 40's music. alternatively he'll sing when he makes pancakes in the dorm at 4 am in sweats while slipping around on his socks
☆ he will be coming back to the city this month probably on TDM day! so he would've been ICly out of reach this entire time

LOOKING FOR:
★ DID YOUR CHARA LIVE IN REC BEFORE AUGUST?? anyone who used to know Chiaki before and might notice his sliiiiight change in behavior and avoidance of talking about his year away when he normally talks about anything - but also he'd be so happy to see them again
★ PLAY SOMEONE FROM JAPAN?? if anyone wants to go even further back childhood friend route and they knew Chiaki before the family left for Recollé! give me reunions!
★ PLAY A YOUNGER CHARACTER?? Chiaki's really eager to be a big brother figure all the time. if anyone knows his siblings, they probably know him too?! he'll want to be a good role model for every kid ever
★ MORE JOCKS?? because he's absolutely a jock smh. someone play basketball with him on the weekends? swish swish. or start some kind of rugby/soccer team with him? SPORTS!! i'd love a dummy jock squad....
★ PLAY SOMEONE IN THE ENTERTAINMENT INDUSTRY?? idk if anyone's some kind of rising actor, chiaki can 100% be an encouraging fanboy because he's a loser like that.
★ DOES YOUR CHARA HAVE A DOG?? please let chiaki be your dog walker, he can easily be duped into doing it for discounted rates tbh
★ DOES YOUR CHARA... NEED... A RIDE?? IDK people who would use the Uber/Lyft-equivalent?? Chiaki could have been your overly exuberant driver who you got a couple times and now you're friends and he'll drive you for free he's never going to actually make money at this rate
★ DOES YOUR CHARA JUST NEED HELP?? anyone else who could've needed random jobs to be done. there's some kind of app for that probably. chiaki is on that app. he'll mow your lawn, be your delivery boy, etc ec.
★ OR ANYONE OR ANYTHING ELSE!! i'm really up for all types of CR with him, whether it be negative, mentoring, platonic, etc. feel free to hit me up at evergrace if you'd like to float anything past me on plurk!

Mikiya Kokutou | Kara no Kyoukai

[refuges]

PLAYER: Zero (aidios)
CHARACTER: Mikiya Kokutou
CANON: Kara no Kyoukai

AU NAME: Probably still Mikiya Kokutou but I can work with things if family comes up
AU AGE: 18
AU OCCUPATION: Probably a senior in high school ready to graduate this June. Maybe has a part time job somewhere.
BLURB:
- Senior in high school who's probably going to college because his parents told him to.
- Not academically inclined, but he's not dumb, either. Nor does he have any special talents except for a stupid knack of finding things that were lost.
- Insanely stubborn.
- Plenty friendly but doesn't allow people to get insanely close to him. Because of his neutral personality, he attracts people who know he won't pry into their lives or be clingy.
- Doesn't really have any hobbies and tends to stay at home. Though if a friend calls, he'll hang out with him. He's just not the one assertive to ask people to hang out.
- Probably into some supernatural and occult stuff. Just because he probably finds it interesting for one reason or another.
- Also into psychology, but more into things like multiple personalities and the such because it intrigues him.
- Probably reads all the clickbait ever and loves buying magazines and just reading them.
- Is intrigued by dolls and puppets.
LOOKING FOR:
- A family member (like a cousin or aunt/uncle, though it could be a parent or older sibling, too!) or close friend who is in the police force.
- Family in general.
- Friends at the high school
- A place where he can work really a really odd part time job. The closer it is to the supernatural, the better.
OPTIONAL ENABLE ME: Also looking at possibly apping instead Akane Tsunemori from Psycho-Pass

Hibari Kyoya | Katekyou Hitman Reborn!

[allodole]

PLAYER: Jin alaudarum
CHARACTER: Hibari Kyoya
CANON: Katekyou Hitman Reborn!

AU NAME: Hibari Kyoya
AU AGE: 20
AU OCCUPATION: Business Administration Student
BLURB:
- Hibari was born and raised in Shinjuku. He mostly kept to himself, and if he ends up with siblings at Recolle, they were probably the only people who were ever really allowed inside his head.
- He moved to Recolle to attend university. He grew up in a large mansion and currently resides in an equally-posh condominium.
- His parents are the current heads of a massive conglomerate corporation. Think of... Samsung, or something. It's probably named the Namimori Company lol... Both his parents raised Hibari with the intent of him succeeding his parents' positions and funneling him straight into one of the corporation's top positions.
- He was pretty pissed about this growing up and hated the idea of following in their footsteps.
- He was fed that narrative ever since he was young. Hibari spent most of his childhood rebelling against his parents' efforts in molding and shaping him.
- At 20, he still loathes his parents' controlling personalities, but has developed a sense of loyalty towards the position he's supposed to inherit from them. He doesn't hide the fact that he dislikes them, but no one would ever question his loyalty towards his blood or the family corporation.
- Currently a student at Recolle University. He's pursuing a degree in business administration. Despite initially hating the idea of succeeding the family corporation, he's decided to channel his energy into reshaping it to make his parents' success pale in comparison to his own.
- He still really likes animals! You can probably find him at the local zoo or aquarium during his downtime. He probably volunteers at the dog clinic.
- In fact, he tends to like animals more than people. Hibari generally keeps his distance from others, but his AU self is a little more mellow than his canon self. He can still be abrasive, but won't jump at people's throats if he dislikes them.
- He has a great sense of pride and is incredibly competitive when something does pique his interest. He may hate his parents, but he's grown into the corporate heir they wanted all along.
LOOKING FOR:
- Friends! Hibari mostly grew up alone and has very little experience with interacting with others outside of business airs. I think he'd actually mostly get along with people who were persistent enough to keep bugging him? Otherwise, he gets along fine with younger kids. He might know a couple people from a socialite circle he was forced into attending even though he 0/10 would not attend again
- On that note I think it would be kinda entertaining if there were one or two people his parents tried to set him up with to make sure they knew exactly where the family business was going? Unfortunately he likely detests those people as a general rule of thumb from the sole fact that it was his parents that tried to nudge him into a relationship rip
- I think siblings would actually be pretty interesting for Hibari? One or two younger siblings would be neat. He wasn't the best role model as a high school student so his relationship with his parents is a little strained, but he'd be super fond of his siblings.
- Classmates are cool! Hibari wouldn't be particularly talkative in classes but it's always handy to have one or two classmates you can nudge to ask about an assignment if one is desperate...
- Anything really! I'm down with hashing things out here or on Plurk and definitely willing to play with plots if Hibari happens to be someone that might fit into your ideas!
OPTIONAL ENABLE ME: pls I swear I do not bite

Lily Baskerville | Pandora Hearts

[littlestbaskerville]

PLAYER: Jensen
CHARACTER: Lily Baskerville
CANON: Pandora Hearts

AU NAME: Lily Ébauche
AU AGE: 12
AU OCCUPATION: Student
BLURB:

- Half French and half British
- Her parents are over protective

radiou kuzunoha / devil summoner

[thexiv]

PLAYER: Ichi (plays tarotcards and optimistical)
CHARACTER: Raidou Kuzunoha the XIV
CANON: Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Summoner: Raidou Kuzunoha vs [The Soulless Army/King Abaddon/longass canon names]

AU NAME: Jouhei [some last name]
AU AGE: 23
AU OCCUPATION: Veterinary School Student / Veterinary Assistant
BLURB:

❖ Born and raised in America (can only speak basic conversational Japanese) as a single child by only his father (mother not in the picture). He lived a relatively happy life until he was eight when his father unexpectedntly passed away. As a result of his death, Jouhei moved to the countryside to stay with his grandparents and uncle who owned a farm (and was in the middle of nowhere). He pretty much stayed there for the next ~10 years until he decided that he wanted to go to veterinary school and his grandparents sent him off to Recolle when he was 18.

❖ Despite spending part of his childhood in the city, he's pretty much a country-bumpkin. He really liked it out there and while there are pros of living in a city (holy shit, everything is within walking distance), he'd prefers the country. Someone please make jokes about him wearing overalls and having a straw in his mouth.

❖ Partially because of his past, he is veryyyyyyy quiet. He's the type of person to keep to himself and blend into the background rather than beaming with energy and be somewhere up front. He's a man of few words and you'd kind of have to rib him or get close enough for him to speak more than a few sentences.

❖ However, Jouhei is a huge fan of sweets, like really big fan. You can easily grab his attention if you say you'll treat him to a slice of cake or something so I guess you can get him to talk that way. Asides from that, you'll probably see him in the candy aisle of the store every so often. He likes carrying around little pieces of hard candy on him so he can get his sugar rush whenever.

❖ He is always wearing an old, battered black baseball (a keepsake from his late father) and when I mean always, I mean it. Always.

❖ This is his phone. For the love of God, someone please take it, chuck it off a bridge, and give him a smartphone.

❖ Also has a very basic phone plan that gives him limited minutes, no data, and gets charged for text messages. He somehow survives with this.

❖ He's a master of Snake because it's the only game on his shitty phone. He once beat it by reaching the maximum length of the snake and couldn't do anything else. It was wonderful and someone should show him all the cool new phone games so he can play them. He will be blown away by Candy Crush.

❖ While attending veterinary school, he also works as a veterinary assistant at a local, small vet clinic. Nothing really special but if you have a pet, you might have seen him here and there.

❖ Leads a very boring life. It's pretty much wake up, go to school, go to work, head home, clean and cook, go to sleep, rinse and repeat. Please drag him out and teach him how to have fun.

LOOKING FOR:

Friends?? Coworkers?? Someone who spams his block phone with text messages and photos and he has to actually call them and tell them to please stop?? Yeah, things like that. Possibly looking for a cousin as well!

OPTIONAL ENABLE ME: nahhhhh

Reiji Miyabi | Star Driver

[diamant]

PLAYER: Dal
CHARACTER: Reiji Miyabi
CANON: Star Driver

AU NAME: Reiji Suzukaze
AU AGE: 36
AU OCCUPATION: Artist
BLURB:
☆ A painter originally from a small island south of Japan
☆ All was going reasonably well when he was a teenager until he got his best friend's girlfriend pregnant
☆ Dishonor on you, dishonor on your family, dishonor on your cow
☆ He actually took responsibility for the kid after a huge amount of prodding from his father though, and somehow successfully raised said kid for five years without anybody dying
☆ This worked out until he didn't, brought the kid to the States for a brief visit and the kid promptly got kidnapped because welcome to America
☆ Had to go back to Japan eventually, has not received news about kid since, and that is how your friendly neighborhood Silver (feistytrader) came into existence
☆ Anyway that incident isn't something he really talks about at all because no
☆ He did eventually hit it surprisingly big in the art world, though, he does art shows and possibly has a feud with both Stuart Semple and Anish Kapoor
☆ And that is what brought him to Recollé, he's got a show on at the art gallery and honestly he's found this place really nice and just doesn't seem too inclined to go just yet
☆ You can check out any time you like but you can never leave, etc
☆ In general he can be found spending time near the beach and is absolutely not shy about approaching people to ask if he can sketch them at least
☆ No really if you are pretty he may ask you at some point in some sort of really brazen manner
☆ Otherwise he's just socializing while he can and enjoying the city, it's different to what he's used to but generally he's having a good time
☆ He's gonna have an interesting time remembering piloting giant fuckoff mecha in Zero Time, let's put it that way
☆ ...He's less of a garbage fire now than he was in canon but no promises for how long that's going to hold up
LOOKING FOR: Literally anything and everything is fine by me! Models would be great, as would casual acquaintances; otherwise, I am here for CR that is positive, negative, awkward, whatever

Sayaka Maizono | Dangan Ronpa

[espert]

PLAYER: Hana
CHARACTER: Sayaka Maizono

♪ Currently a senior in High school and is preparing to graduate to start her first year of college. A cheerful, well behaved student and while she doesn't make top marks, she still makes decent grades. She's the president of the cooking club and is also part of the girl's volleyball team. As of a member of the cooking club, she frequently does bake sales to help raise money for her school and charity. Is a bit of an overachiever and she wants to do whatever she can do help, so thus, she likes getting involved in things like dance committees and pep rallies

☆ Employees at her family's restaurant: Her family owns a decent sized restaurant, so she would appreciate any kind of help. Waitresses, waiters, chefs, dish washers, her family is always looking for an extra hand.
☆ Fellow rabbit lovers: Sayaka loves her pet bunny so I would love for her to meet anyone else who adores rabbits so they can gush together. She's probably part of some online rabbit fan club.
☆ Upperclassman or mentors that can help her out at her first year of university. She's pretty nervous about entering college so she could use some help on getting adjusted to uni life.
☆ Karaoke pals: Sayaka loves a good silly karaoke jam session. Her favorite songs to sing are cutesy pop songs, Disney Gisney and anime songs. If you need someone to sing Taylor Swift or High School Musical songs with, she's your girl.

[resilire]

PLAYER: Zero (aidios)
CHARACTER: Akane Tsunemori
CANON: Psycho-Pass

AU NAME: Akane Tsunemori
AU AGE: 21
AU OCCUPATION: Junior in college at Recolle University, studying criminal justice and psychology as a pre-law major.
BLURB:
- 21 year old girl who is a third generation immigrant from Japan. She's really close with her grandma who tells her of Japan a lot and takes her there once in a while.
- An only child.
- Really into MMOs and dungeons and dragons. Probably has DM'd a campaign before if not part of a few dungeons and dragons groups.
- One of her characters is based on a jellyfish.
- Studying law because she was the only one recommended in her class to be a lawyer when taking an aptitude test in high school. Plus she got a few scholarships due to her grades.

- Pretty self-sufficient and often good at taking care of herself and her mental health.

- Very nosy and likes to pry into people's business and often gets scolded for that.

OPTIONAL ENABLE ME: Also considering Mikiya Kokutou from Kara no Kyoukai

[eldain]

PLAYER: Eon
CHARACTER: Ainchase Ishmael (Ain)
CANON: Elsword

AU NAME: Ainchase Richter
AU AGE: 21-25
AU OCCUPATION: University student

BLURB:

- Half-English, half-German. Born to a rich family who work in a large biomanufacturing company. Only child.
- Parents often moved for business-related reasons, bringing them to Recolle for their current phase of operations.
- Studies biology-related subjects in university. Depending on the age I decide for him, he's either an undergraduate or doing his masters. He picked this course to be of use to his family's business.
- Privileged (tm) and he knows it. Born with intellect meant that he had high expectations piled onto him, which he fulfils with fervour.
- Basically, he's That One Guy in college who seems to love studying and never turns up for social events.
- He only rarely experiences failure. This started first with his parents using their influence to help him, which proceeded to fuel his near-obsession with producing perfect results. I intend to have him mess up majorly once he's in the game, and he has to deal with the fallout from that as a lesson.

- At first appearance, he's very polite and witty, with a subtle charming manner.
- That is kind of a lie however, as he's impatient towards everyone who can't keep up with him and sees strangers more as hindrances.
- Due to his exceptional focus on his own goals, he can be somewhat selfish and brutally honest towards people who underperform.
- Basically, he's an asshole. A honest asshole with a pretty face.
- However, he won't criticise people without basis, or insult them just for the fun of it. That's a line that he draws, though it's probably not obvious to other people.
- Due to the fact that he's privileged enough to have success, he thinks himself a good judge of character and will try to help people that he thinks are worth helping (e.g. if your character is hardworking and comes from a low-income household, working with him consistently will result in him buying food and other stuff for them)
- Of course, even if his arrogance is backed up in part by his ability, he is still pretty self-centered and needs to be knocked down a peg or two.

- On the more mundane side of things, he likes refined things due to his upbringing and thus has an eye for aesthetic.
- He is aware that skincare routines and makeup are probably not very masculine but gives zero fucks about other people's opinions.
- Plays the harp for Extra Pretentiousness (tm)
- Draws like crap and is secretly ashamed of it.

- Instead of having grey hair with blue highlights, he will only have grey hair. His natural hair colour is blonde, he just dyed it to look Cool (tm). He does not have his ahoge, but keeps the side braid. It will eventually become bright turquoise.
- His green eyes remain, though they are less of a technicolour shade than canon.
- Still wears earrings. They're slim triangles with a blue gem set into each, and he uses just this one design.



LOOKING FOR:

Because of the nature of his character arc, I am looking for long term cr who can help him with (or push him down the wrong end of) character development. I'd like to go into the game with a reasonable pool of pre-cr as well, so that I can bug your characters immediately without having to deal with Ain's in-built stuffiness.

He needs friends and acquaintances who can see past his 'stuck-up jerk' aura and try to get him to change. Once he considers someone to be on his level, his harshness decreases significantly and he can be a supportive friend. His general attitude is also not the best, so he'll definitely attract negative CR. Feel free to resent him for being privileged, being brutally honest, or just as a guy who fits the rich snob archetype.

His canon self is an angel, so I can also offer memory regain opportunities of the magical and cataclysmic variety. He will have to grapple with his memories showing him a path where he can attain perfection (as his personal worth is highly dependent on the amount of accomplishments he can make) as well as the prospect of losing emotions/his sense of self and sublimating into an unthinking puppet.

I can also app him from his 'grimdark' route where his memories are instead filled with soul corruption and lovecraftian void horrors, but that might need a lot more work and I'm not sure if it's an option people would want to play with. Please let me know if you are, though!

[rhapsodist]

CHARACTER: Genesis Rhapsodos
CANON: Final Fantasy VII


AU NAME: Genesis o’Reilly
AU AGE: ~30
AU OCCUPATION: Bookstore owner/bookbinder (specializing in repair and restoring)
BLURB:

-Born in Banora Point, NSW, Australia (yes, it exists)
-Father is Irish, Mother is Japanese. Both are from wealthy families.
-When he was about 4 he had come down with a severe case of pneumonia that left him with a weak constitution and asthma.
-He spent a few years in the Japanese countryside to see if being in a more rural area would help (and his mother thought Japan would be best and it allowed them to use a family estate).
-Genesis did get better but as he still got sick quite easily and also was getting bullied by other children, they were referred to a pediatric doctor who specializes is cases like Genesis in the US so they made the move.
-End up near a rural town where Genesis would eventually befriend Andrew Hughes who grew quite protective of him, preventing any further bullying to the “redhead with the weird accent”.
-Things did get better by high school, his asthma largely going away unless he’s panicking or overworking himself. He found a love for literature, poetry especially, and theater.
-This is also when he started realizing he had feelings for Andrew and while Andrew eventually left to join the army, Genesis never quite stopped liking him. They were off and on for awhile, Genesis in the interim dating others but ultimately, when Andrew came back for good, they got back together again and are together now. He’s waiting to hear in Andy wants to move in with him currently.
-Speaking of homes, Genesis’ home is actually the second floor of his bookstore, The Open Book. He specializes in repairing/restoring books along with selling books. Usually used but he will get new books too, more likely the new/popular ones but if he's got the room, he'll get as many new books as possible. Rotates between the genres too.
-His bookstore is one of those hole in the wall places, but it’s by no means tiny. He also sells/serves tea and brews his own tea and mixtures. He’s popular with the old folk.
-Genesis is a bit of a string bean and a freckle face, but despite his health issues and bullying, he’s still a bit of a spitfire and he’s learned self-defense (probably tai chi at his mom’s suggestion) so he’s not a weakling.
-He’s not adopted and loves his parents very much! Also, he'll be coming in with a cast on his arm because he was an idiot and fell off a stool in the store. Andrew will be mad and mother-henning it up. News at 11. LOL
-I feel like I’m forgetting something so I’ll add more below.

LOOKING FOR: friends or frenemies. Maybe someone who used to bully him. Siblings/Cousins/etc???? His store is small enough that he probably won’t need another employee but I mean, I can adjust!

fairy king harlequin | seven deadly sins

[agrizzlysin]

PLAYER: Wind
CHARACTER: Fairy King Harlequin, alias: King
CANON: Seven Deadly Sins

AU NAME: Harlequin (or just Quin maybe?), surname undecided
AU AGE: 14
AU OCCUPATION: High school freshman, king of video games, confused nerd
BLURB:

➾ A nerdy runt who looks more like he belongs in sixth grade than in high school. Scrawny, socially clueless, and still navigating puberty.
➾ Huge crybaby. Huge on every emotion, really. He is a walking, talking reaction gif.
➾ Comes from an upper middle class family that expects him to take over the family business. But fuck that.
➾ Can study well and makes friends easily enough but cannot balance the two to save his life. Either he's studying every minute of every day, or he's constantly thinking about things he can do for/with his buddies!
➾ This is exhausting for his tiny teenage brain, so whenever he finds he can't keep up with himself, he hides away in online video games. If suddenly you don't hear from him for three days straight, you know why.
➾ Online username: KING. All caps. The caps are important.
➾ If there's a home ec/handicrafts club at Recolle High, he's in it. He's just so good with his hands. He likes making pillows and blankets and stuffed animals so he can nap with them.
➾ Always the last one picked for teams in PE. Not only is he super scrawny, he's lazy too. Won't bother unless he's trying to impress someone, and even then he'll only embarrass himself. He embarrasses himself a lot.
➾ Like how he totally crushes on all the tall, sporty girls in school but fails at confessing to any of them.

LOOKING FOR: Awkward teenage crushes. Gaming buddies. Club buddies. Jocks for him to scoff at. Bullies??? Emotionally damaged peers he can be the straight man/feel feelings for. Mentors who get to be shocked and confused when Harlequin starts remembering over 1000 years worth of memories. Family and friends! Anything you can think of, throw it at me.
OPTIONAL ENABLE ME: I'm not sure I'll even have time for this guy, so this is basically an interest check to see whether or not I should try! Go on, enable me if you dare. I mean, at least he's not a second Kamui.

Question! Being half-British, did Lily ever live in the UK?

I'm asking because Noah's dad was a clown/entertainer who worked in the UK and would sometimes do birthday parties that Noah would help out at too. If she was in the UK at any point, maybe she could be one of the spoiled kids they did a birthday party for?

Oh my god, I adore Raidou Kuzunoha.

[littlestbaskerville]

YES! I was thinking that she lived there until she was old enough to start going to school and they moved. That would be perfect though!

[cardcaptured]

YES

MORE MIDDLE-SCHOOLERS!!!

But Xiaolang (Syaoran) is 13, from a wealthy family himself, and also has a dog! (who is really his AU!cousin's, but shhh) He's probably a grade above her, and set to graduate in June, but I'd kill for him to have more friends closer to his age?? (I mean, he has Sakura, but that's.... Complicated right now, so) He's mature but also still a bit bratty himself, and he's in the same-ish boat of 'having difficulties making friends'

idk man I'm just psyched to have more kid characters here, let's do this thing

[complementing]

oh my gosh Hibari!!!!

Minako is in her last year of school as a business major, so they could be classmates that way? She's also an event coordinator at the city volunteer association called ReVA, so his parents could've paired him with her?? ngl I'd love to see someone hate her, she'd be so adamant about getting into his good graces, but in general she's a good person to be an introvert's friend, so I'd be up for anything!!
