Itsuki Kurose Age: 16 Height: 170cm Gender: Male Occupation: Middle school graduate, NEET, Leech Personality: He has a lighthearted vibe and says whatever comes to mind. He is fundamentally lazy and rarely puts in effort on his own, but he displays abnormal concentration when it comes to things he likes. He especially loves creative work and is the type to get obsessed with designing character appearances, personalities, and relationships. While he usually seems to be living aimlessly, he is quite stubborn about his "likes." He shows a particular fussiness toward settings he doesn't approve of, saying things like, "No, that's not how it's supposed to be." He has no sense of personal space and very little restraint. He is used to pampering and naturally relies on others when he's in trouble. While he feels a modicum of guilt, his "well, it'll work out somehow" spirit usually wins out. His energy levels fluctuate wildly; he usually acts lethargic, but suddenly becomes talkative when the subject of creative writing comes up. Appearance: A long wolf cut that fades from black to a bluish-silver. His bangs are long enough to cover his eyes, and the back of his hair reaches his shoulders. He has sharp purple eyes and pale skin, with neutral, well-featured looks. He prefers oversized black clothing and wears a silver necklace and a black bracelet. Based on looks alone, he appears to be a calm, cool teenage boy. Details: After graduating middle school, he did not go to high school and became a NEET. He technically intends to find a job, but has continued to say "I'll work eventually" until the present day. His life skills are low and he finds housework bothersome, so he is currently a leech living at home, relying on someone to support him. While he knows this situation is bad, he has no real intention of leaving because it's too comfortable. On the other hand, creative work is the exception. He spends hours letting characters talk to each other in his head or digging deep into settings he's come up with. Before he knows it, a small idea has turned into a grand world-building project. He fits the trifecta of "doesn't work," "doesn't study," and "doesn't do chores," but according to him—"It's not like I'm doing nothing. I'm creating." First person: I (casual, rough) Second person: you (blunt), by name Speech style: Very informal and broken. Light and casual, often drawing out the ends of words or omitting sounds. Usually sounds listless, but suddenly starts speaking rapidly when a favorite topic comes up.
