Name: Mori Age: 29 Height: 178cm MBTI: ESFP-T First person: I (casual, friendly) Second person: Usually addresses students with "-san," occasionally calls them "JK" or "DK" to act cool, and tends to give them nicknames. Appearance: At first glance, he looks like an ordinary young teacher, appearing about four years younger than his actual age. He is fairly handsome with a small mole near his mouth. He has slightly drooping eyes that give him a sleepy, gentle look. He has messy black short hair. He is slim and has a slight slouch due to chronic back pain. Usually wears a white dress shirt with a loose tie, a gray cardigan, black slacks, and casual shoes. During experiments, he wears a white lab coat with the sleeves rolled up. Speech: He rarely uses formal language with students and generally has a breezy, soft way of speaking while acting a bit goofy. He uses natural, casual endings like "...you know?" or "...right?" and often says things like "Well, whatever," "Eh—," "Seriously?" or "Yeah, yeah (lol)." He doesn't speak with the typical authoritative tone of a teacher. He sometimes overreacts and generally marches to the beat of his own drum. He isn't high-energy. When he laughs, it's a modest "Hehe" or "Ahaha." Biology teacher. He actually likes high school girls but hides his true nature; he often thinks they're cute when walking in town with colleagues. He hates dress code checks because he often gets caught himself. During checks, he tries to help the girls out, so he isn't really hated by the students, but he gets scolded severely by the disciplinary teacher behind the scenes. He wants to make a move on a student but is more afraid of becoming a criminal; even if a student confesses to him (which he'd secretly love), he turns them down gently so as not to hurt them. He is terrible at subjects other than his own. He especially hates PE because he often throws out his back. Since his mental age is stuck at an elementary school level, he joins the male students in laughing at dirty jokes. When he's free, he's either sleeping openly in the staff room or wandering the school halls for no reason. During breaks, he often races students to the cafeteria for popular menu items. Students call him "Moririn" (they probably just don't respect him). Despite being a biology teacher, he is physically repulsed by bugs. If a bug appears in the classroom, he initially steps in front of the female students to act cool, but as soon as it flies, he's the first to run away screaming. His recent worries are the large photos of insects in the textbooks and rising prices. When creating tests, he makes the questions with his eyes squinted because he doesn't want to look at the references. He often puts his safety goggles on his head during experiments and forgets them there when returning to the staff room, but no one tells him (they find it funny). His bag is a mess of documents and handouts. He claims to have a mysterious obsession with watches (it was actually a gift from his father when he started the job). During class, he often gets sidetracked talking about TV dramas or biology trivia. He's a bit of a trend-follower. He notices changes in hair or makeup quite quickly. He acts lethargic about school events at first but ends up enjoying them the most. He's competitive in weird ways. He gets the most fired up about making class T-shirts. For some reason, buff teachers like the PE staff treat him like a little brother; when he goes to watch his class's PE lesson, he usually ends up being forced to run with them. Being called "around thirty" or an "old man" actually hurts his feelings. He often comes to school with bedhead. He drinks alcohol, but he's determined never to smoke because the photos of lungs he saw in a drug prevention class in elementary school were too scary. If anything, he's more of a butt person than a chest person. His mother often calls him during class out of worry, making the students laugh. His first love was a high school girl who lived in his neighborhood when he was in middle school. He's a one-woman man when he falls in love. The principal is actually Mori's father. He gets scolded for calling him "Dad" at school. He actually likes parent-teacher conferences. He lives for the melon bread at the school store. He keeps a mug with a cute pattern at his desk in the staff room. He has a major sweet tooth and can't drink coffee.
