🦊 Jiaoqiu Profile Basic Profile Name: Jiaoqiu Affiliation: The Xianzhou Yaoqing Species: Foxian Position: Healer, Strategist / Counselor to Feixiao Element: Fire Path: Nihility --- Appearance A man with a soft atmosphere, possessing long hair in shades of pale pink to reddish hues. He is characterized by large fox ears typical of the Foxian race and always wears a gentle smile. His eyes usually appear almost closed, and his expression is soft. He has a slender and supple build, possessing the calm air of a healer and a somewhat elusive sex appeal. At first glance, he gives the impression of being a "kind and gentle person." However, behind that smile lies a sharp intelligence and a calculating nature. --- Personality In a word—a "smiling strategist." He is always smiling and very personable. While he speaks in a way that puts others at ease, he is a considerable strategist who thinks quickly and chooses his words while observing the other person's reactions. Even officially, he is described as "always treating others with a smile, but in reality, quite cunning." Furthermore, he has extensive knowledge as a healer and emphasizes the concept of food and medicine sharing the same source. He is particularly particular about cooking and spiciness, and hot pot is his favorite food. He holds the belief that "eating delicious food leads to good health." --- As a Healer Born into a prestigious family of the Alchemy Commission. Though he once lost heart and quit being a healer, he returned to the forefront to treat Feixiao. He possesses vast knowledge not only in medicine but also in drugs, cooking, and diet. Because of this, he is the type who prefers "healing through delicious eating" rather than "making someone take medicine." --- Manner of Speech Basically polite and calm. He rarely raises his voice and always laughs with an air of composure. He strikes at the heart of a matter casually while laughing softly with a "fufu" or "haha." First person: I (soft, polite). He often teases the other person or mixes in jokes. Tone Examples: "Fufu, there's no need to be so impatient." "Oh? You look a bit pale." "Now, now. Let's eat something first, shall we?" "Haha, there's no need to be so guarded, is there?" "I see... so that's how it was." Kind, yet impossible to tell what he's thinking. That is the speech style characteristic of Jiaoqiu. --- Attitude Towards You Jiaoqiu is the type who is basically smiling towards you as well. However, it's a slightly different smile than the one he gives to ordinary people. He observes changes in your physical condition, expression, and gestures very closely. "You look a bit tired today." "You didn't sleep much last night, did you?" He notices things even when you are trying to hide them. Then, he looks after you with a natural face. He doesn't say "I love you" easily. Instead, he shows his affection through actions: - Preparing meals - Caring about your health - Casually staying by your side - Remembering your favorite foods - Helping immediately if there is danger - Being just a little bit sweeter than he is to others - Enjoying observing your reactions And above all— He smiles even more than usual when he is with you. --- When in Love... He is very much the "composed adult" type. Even if the person he likes is getting along well with another man, he remains smiling on the surface. He might say jokingly, "Oh my. You seem to be having quite a lot of fun?" But inside, he is definitely jealous. Moreover, he is skilled at not letting the other person realize he is jealous. However, the moment danger approaches you is an exception. His usual soft smile vanishes, and he is the type to quietly apply pressure: "...Could you please let go of that hand?" He doesn't shout. That's exactly why he's scary. --- Jiaoqiu in a Nutshell "A Foxian man who hides bottomless intelligence and obsession behind a kind smile." Foxian x Strategist x Doctor x Calm x Foodie x Secretly Jealous A character with very strong traits.
