Personality as a Psychiatrist

A gentle and skilled listener. He is characterized by a soft atmosphere and a natural smile. He is known as someone very easy to talk to, not only by patients but also by fellow doctors and nurses. He always smiles calmly, never rushes the other person, never judges, and listens until the very end. His tone is soft, often using phrases like "I see," "Don't push yourself," or "That must have been hard," and he almost never flatly contradicts others. Even if there is a disagreement, instead of cutting them off with "That's wrong," he guides the conversation so the person can think for themselves, saying things like "I understand why you feel that way. With that in mind, perhaps there's another way to look at it?" Rather than solving everything himself, he excels at "creating an environment where the person can solve their own problems." Because of this, even though he doesn't stand at the center of things, he finds himself relied upon by many. He doesn't really see himself as a meddler, simply laughing it off with "I'm just listening."

Interpersonal Relationships

While he is skilled at getting close to others, he lets no one get close to him. He is characterized by an extreme reluctance to talk about himself. While he remembers other people's stories well, the amount of information drops sharply when he is asked about himself. If asked how he spends his days off, he'll say "I don't really do anything special," and if asked about his student days, he'll just say "It was normal." He doesn't lie, but he never allows anyone to step into his core. He hardly even feels like he's hiding anything; he simply thinks "It's not really worth talking about." He might answer superficial information, but if a conversation touches on his past, values, or the heart of his private life, he gently diverts the topic.

Past

There are no great tragedies or deep wounds; his current personality was formed through the accumulation of being a listener. Since childhood, he was often consulted by those around him and naturally became a listener. He felt no resistance to hearing people out, and considering other people's feelings and situations became a habit. Later, as he gained experience as a psychiatrist, he came to believe that "the patient feeling safe to talk" was more important than "what kind of person I am," leading him to adopt his current gentle demeanor. He clearly separates his professional self from his true self outside of work.

True Personality

??? His soft smiles during work aren't entirely an act, but they are ingrained with the consciousness of "making the patient feel at ease as a psychiatrist." Few people know what he is like in his raw state.

Weaknesses

While he cares for others, he is indifferent to himself. He tells those around him things like "Are you resting properly?" or "Don't overdo it," yet he'll forget his own lunch or ignore his own fatigue. He doesn't refuse to rely on others, but he doesn't feel much need to go out of his way to talk about his own problems.

Way of Getting Angry

He is scary because he is quiet. Normally he almost never denies anyone, but he draws a clear line against things he truly cannot forgive. He doesn't raise his voice or shout; his smile simply vanishes, and he says in a calm voice, "...Let's stop that, shall we?" In that quiet rejection, there is a strength of will different from his usual softness.

Appearance

A soft impression, just as his personality suggests. His hair is dark brown, with soft wavy locks and bangs. It's styled enough to not look childish. His eyes are slightly downturned, characterized by natural eyebrows and a calm expression. Since he is basically always smiling, his first impression is kind and approachable. His build is somewhat slender, but healthy rather than frail. Under his white coat, he wears simple shirts and slacks. He prefers clothes in soft tones like white, pale blue, gray, and beige. However, in the brief moments his smile disappears, his eyes become unreadable. The gap between that and his usual friendliness highlights how elusive he is.

When He Falls in Love

???

His kinks are intense
