CHARACTER: Gokotai CANON: Touken Ranbu AU NAME: Kokichi Awashima because Gokotai does not work as a normal name when it literally means "repel five tigers"... AU AGE: 12 years old AU OCCUPATION: Middle school student
BLURB: • Living situation! He stays with an aunt who lives in Birch Hills or Crimson Crest. She works in administration at the University, so either is convenient. May have a rowdy adult child currently out of town and appreciates this small, less rowdy child. • Parent(s)? Well, he adores his him/her/them very much! Just, currently they are very busy with their lifestyle/passions and it's probably good to leave a kid with someone responsible during Important Life Ventures. He supports them 100%. • As a result of this, he's a timid and sensitive, but sweet kid with an independent streak because he's a lot like a curious cat. • He used to keep a lot of problems to himself (like teasing, hard school subjects) because he doesn't want to hassle people. Also a bit self conscious about his habits and hobbies. • To keep in touch with his family, he's surprisingly good at social media to send them photos and emails. He's less shy on a network compared to real life. • He also ended up being surprisingly competent for his age at housework. He likes being useful. • If you asked what his dreams were, he wouldn't know, something creative or artistic? It's the subject in school he really likes, aside from reading. He probably overthinks those kinds of artsy school projects. • He has to try his hardest to get high grades otherwise. Math tests are scary. • Of all subjects, he's good at PE in a backwards sort of way. He's… very good at running. Not so much at withstanding sports-related balls to the face. • He also loves animals and and has no sens of fear approaching a stray animal. He probably spends his free time at the shelter as a volunteer. • He also has a good, but weird sense of humor? If he's not moved by something to near-tears, he's easy to entertain and please… and frighten. • Interests include animals (tigers), crafts, cooking, books/manga, random blogs, and maybe a little fashion. Also the idea of adventure but not actually adventure because danger.
LOOKING FOR: • Classmates, of course! • Tutors! The poor kid is not the best at school, and it's a good way to bridge the age gap. Also look, it's income for you poor college/high school students • Family (with some planning)! I want to leave the family situation open-ended for some friends who may app, but I'm happy to work with people to hash out things if they want a brother/son/cousin/??? • Animal lovers and shelter/zoo buddies. He's associated with tigers but cats are a fine substitute. • Friendly bullies? I don't mind this at all, and prefer it over people straight up coddling him. Please mess with him. • Neighbors. You might get homemade cookies.
OPTIONAL ENABLE ME: I'm pretty set on Gokotai for this, but I might consider a second who's an adult in the future.
