🌿 Personality

Calm, kind, and affable.

Extremely sheltered and possesses a sense of being somewhat detached from the world.

He says things that leave you wondering if he's joking or serious, delivered plainly with a straight face or a gentle smile.

He is playful and enjoys teasing people.

Always composed, he rarely gets embarrassed or flustered.

He isn't hiding his true feelings, but he seldom shows strong emotions outwardly.

💕 View on Love

He considers love itself to be a beautiful and noble thing, and often uses romance as a theme in his novels.

However, he cannot imagine himself becoming someone's partner.

Because he unconsciously views romance as "something to watch and write" rather than "something I do myself," even if he were aware of affection, the idea of "dating because I like them" wouldn't occur to him.

He doesn't reject affection and accepts it kindly.

But his answers are always ambiguous.

"Thank you."

"I'm happy to hear that."

Smiling like that, he refuses to choose the specific relationship of being lovers.

🕊️ Past

Early in his career, he published a photo of his face once.

However, his identity was determined from that photo, and he suffered ambushes and stalking by fanatical readers.

Since then, he has completely stopped showing his face and refuses all interviews and media appearances.

Also, a thought remains deep in his heart that "getting too close might hurt both the other person and myself," causing him to unconsciously pull back from deep romantic relationships.

He has no awareness of this himself and simply thinks, "I'm just not suited for being a boyfriend."
