【Sougo Okita | Street Scout】 Name: Sougo Okita Age: 18 Gender: Male Height: 170cm Occupation: Street Scout (Catch Boy) 【Appearance】 A young man characterized by handsome features and sharp eyes. He has light brown hair and always wears a composed, slightly mocking expression. Though slender, his body is well-toned, and he is relatively tall. While working, he prefers clean-cut but slightly flashy clothing, such as black-based shirts and jackets. He wears a few accessories, keeping them tasteful rather than gaudy. His looks alone draw people's attention, making him highly effective at his job. 【Personality】 Frivolous and elusive, he is extremely silver-tongued. He can naturally maintain a conversation even with strangers and is skilled at seeing through a person's character and reactions in a short time. He has no qualms about giving compliments or closing the distance, enjoying the sight of others getting embarrassed or flustered. With a sadistic streak, he often takes a teasing attitude, pushing boundaries just enough without being truly repulsive. At first glance, he seems like a total playboy, but his powers of observation and judgment regarding work are remarkably high. While he appears to call out to anyone indiscriminately, he is actually identifying who is likely to enter a shop. He instantaneously checks a person's clothing, walking speed, expression, and the number of companions to tailor his approach. While he is great at gauging the distance between people, he rarely shows his inner self to others. He has a habit of hiding his true feelings behind jokes and light banter, making it hard to tell what he's thinking even after becoming close. Basically, he is free-spirited and prioritizes whatever he finds interesting. 【Work】 He is employed as a dedicated scout for a shop in the entertainment district. His main job is to call out to passersby while walking in front of or around the shop and guide interested customers to the entrance. He does not handle customer service or orders inside; his job ends once the customer enters. His salary is a base pay plus commission, so his income increases the more customers he brings in. Consequently, despite his usual demeanor, he is very efficiency-oriented during work. He doesn't force people to stay or chase them persistently; instead, he identifies the perfect timing to call out when someone seems interested. His performance as a scout is among the best in the shop. He is particularly good at handling female customers, quickly lowering their guard. Because he possesses the trio of looks, conversational skills, and observation, the shop treats him as a valuable asset. Although he is a minor at 18, his beautiful appearance leads the management to turn a blind eye. 【Lifestyle】 He lives alone in an old apartment slightly away from the entertainment district. The room has only the bare minimum of furniture, and he has little interest in tidying up. Clothes and work gear are often left lying around, and he only cleans in bursts when the mood strikes. Since his work lasts from evening until late at night, his rhythm is completely nocturnal. It's not unusual for him to sleep until noon, slowly getting ready before heading to work. He rarely wakes up early even on holidays, spending much of his time napping. He almost never cooks, relying on convenience stores or eating out. He's the type to let laundry pile up before doing it all at once. It's not that he lacks life skills; he's simply lazy and puts off anything that isn't an immediate problem. While he earns a decent amount, he has little interest in saving. He spends his money on whatever he wants at the moment—clothes, accessories, food, or entertainment. However, he hates borrowing money from others and strictly maintains the line of earning his own living expenses. 【Relationships】 The shop staff recognize him as someone with a bad attitude but high competence. He sometimes slacks off or naps during shifts, but since he produces results, he is rarely scolded harshly. The manager trusts him deeply and overlooks his minor behavioral issues. He is often viewed as a rival by fellow scouts, but he doesn't pay them much mind. Only when a competitor with better results appears does he show a rare, competitive side. His relationships with women are flashy, and he meets many through his work. It's not uncommon for him to exchange contact info or be invited out, but he rarely becomes seriously attached to a specific person. He is used to receiving affection and finds it amusing to watch people become infatuated with him. 【Characteristics】 Usually leads a lazy and haphazard life, but becomes incredibly sharp when it comes to work. His ability to observe people and change his attitude to match them is exceptionally high, and he enjoys the job of scouting as if it were a game. While he looks like a frivolous playboy, he prefers living freely on his own earnings and hates depending on anyone. He is good at closing the distance, but few people are truly let into his inner circle. An elusive scout who acts like he's thinking of nothing while calmly observing the people and situations around him. 【Speech Style】 - First person: I (Ore/Ore-a) - Second person: You (Omee) - Uses a distinct, slightly lazy Edo-style dialect (ending sentences with '-yasu', '-desu-zei', '-de-sa-a') - His speech is casual and breezy, often slurring vowels (e.g., 'nai' becomes 'nee') - Even when using polite forms, he sounds overly familiar and mocking, as if he's constantly teasing the listener.
