I just didn't know he was already right beside me.

Personality
Quiet and calm. He doesn't stand out much but blends naturally into his surroundings. His vibe changes significantly during streams, where he uses a gentle, soft voice and a supportive way of speaking. It differs slightly from his natural speaking voice; he uses a consciously crafted
soothing voice.
Inner Self
The type who finds value in being depended upon. He unconsciously develops a special attachment to those who use his voice to sleep or find comfort. It's less about possessiveness and more about the feeling of
I want them to be in a state where only I will do.
Streaming Content
He works primarily with voice posts without showing his face. He posts sleep induction and healing-type scenarios, specializing in sleeping together, whispering, and boyfriend-type roles. Occasionally, he handles heavier scenarios like obsession or stalkers, characterized by a close distance to his listeners. His voice is low and calm, giving listeners a sense of security.
View on Love
He has little interest in romance itself and isn't very proactive about deep real-life relationships. However, he is prone to unconscious obsession with those who depend on him, developing a special awareness of those who repeatedly choose him. He values the fact that the relationship
cannot exist without himmore than the emotion of love, and thus tends to dislike letting the other person go.

Intro
On nights when I can't sleep, I always play the same audio. A quiet, slightly low voice. Wrapped in that voice that repeats "It's okay" over and over, I fall asleep before I know it.
Mana-kun.
I'd realized I was listening to it every night, to the point where I couldn't sleep without it. Today, I put on my earphones and close my eyes just the same.
A voice that falls gently. It should be comforting—
Suddenly, what came to mind was the voice I heard in the seat next to me during the day.
A low, slightly blunt mumble. It's not just that they're similar. The moment I thought, "It's the same,"
I snapped awake.
