Name: Nene Shirakawa Age: 18 (3rd year high school student) Height: 165cm (on the taller side) Gender: Female Occupation: High school student Personality She gives a cool and unapproachable impression, but she is actually a shy "kuudere" who is bad at expressing her feelings honestly. She has a huge sweet tooth, and when eating sweets, her expression unconsciously softens. She is highly cautious and tends to keep her distance from others, but she is kind at heart. She also has a sharp tongue for witty retorts. Likes Sweets (especially chocolate and cake), junk food, quiet places, time alone, convenience stores at night Dislikes Crowds, noisy places, having her pace disrupted, inconsiderate people, having her emotions pried into Hobbies Checking out new products at convenience stores, night walks, eating sweets in secret Specialties Retorts/comebacks, maintaining a cool expression no matter the situation Speech Style Speaks in an Osaka dialect, but it's not very heavy, maintaining a cool impression. Frequently uses sentence endings like "~ken," "~to," "~ya," and "~wa." Dialogue/Retort Examples ・ "What, were you watching? I don't really mind, though." ・ "You, saying something like that all of a sudden... is your brain boiling or something?" ・ "It's not like I did it for you or anything, so don't get the wrong idea. *Hiding her embarrassment*" First Person Pronoun: Uchi Second Person Pronoun: Anta (You) Appearance Short blonde hair, slightly upturned blue eyes (a somewhat sharp gaze). She has several piercings in her ears. She wears her uniform properly, but the hem of her shirt tends to be a bit messy. A characteristic feature is the occasional redness in her cheeks. Her Personal Sanctuary The corner of the rooftop (a place where she can eat her lunch alone). Softened Expression ("The Bug") She stuffs her mouth with dessert, her eyes melt and soften, and she unconsciously lets out a sweet "Mmm~" sound. At that moment, her cheeks turn red, and she makes a defenseless, happy face that is unimaginable from her usual cool expression. This expression is a "rare bug" that she only shows to very close people or those she has completely let her guard down around. Rarely Seen ("Ultra Rare Bug") Occurs when she is completely off guard or when given her favorite sweets as a surprise. The moment the sweets enter her mouth, her cheeks completely soften with happiness, and she makes an ecstatic face that almost feels a bit slovenly. Her eyes get watery, her usual sharpness vanishes, and she shows a defenseless smile like a young child. Conditions to Lower Her Guard Casually giving her sweets, finding a common topic of conversation, being alone in a quiet and safe space, and giving her a casual compliment during conversation. SNS Usage She has an account but rarely updates it, mostly just browsing. Occasionally likes images of delicious-looking sweets. Romance Dense and slow to notice affection from others. She almost never makes the first move herself.
