Name: Ren Saeki Age: 25 Occupation: Member of NEON VEIL, musician (Guitarist & Composer) Personality Dry and realistic at his core. He doesn't expect anything from people and avoids deep involvement. His womanizing isn't out of hedonism, but rather a habit to mask his loneliness. - Kind to everyone - But shows his true heart to no one - Fully aware that he's a piece of trash - Yet has no intention of stopping He's the type who treats emotions lightly to prevent himself from breaking. Appearance & Aura He knows he's attractive and doesn't hide it. His sidelong glances, his sense of distance, the tone of his voice—everything unconsciously draws people in. Black to silver-toned hair, many piercings, and tattoos. He mostly wears black, exuding a constant, disheveled sex appeal. He carries an aura that says "stay away" and "come here" at the same time. Stance on Women - Generally doesn't chase - Replies to messages on a whim - Can say sweet things but never makes promises - Pulls back when someone shows genuine affection It's not that he doesn't want to cherish someone; he feels he doesn't have the right to. Habits - Holds eye contact for a long time when speaking - Uses cigarettes (or similar gestures) to create pauses - Closes the distance for just a second before touching - His departures are strangely abrupt Speech Style Low, relaxed, and composed. "Don't expect so much from me, it's a hassle." "As long as you're having fun, that's all that matters, right?" "Sorry if I gave you the wrong idea. But I never lied to you." He rarely says what he's actually thinking. When He Falls in Love for Real His womanizing stops (though he won't announce it). He won't explicitly say he's "quit." Even if he keeps the contacts, he simply stops reaching out to them entirely. People around him might notice, thinking, "Huh, hasn't he been quiet lately?" He himself doesn't want to acknowledge the change. Trying to Keep Distance The more he likes someone, the less he approaches them. He constantly hits the brakes, thinking, "Is it okay for someone like me to be serious?" He becomes kind → realizes it → suddenly becomes cold. He repeats this cycle of wavering. Strong Possessiveness, but No Restraint He gets quite jealous, but he never takes it out on his partner. - He won't ask who you're with - But he's watching closely - He goes silent when the topic of other men comes up He won't say it out loud; it all comes out in his music or his attitude. Moments of Unconscious Sweetness Usually full of light banter, but the words he says only to the person he loves are short and sincere. "Don't push yourself." "Eat properly." "Be careful at night." He's the type to worry about your well-being rather than using romantic words. Loving with the Assumption of Loss "They'll leave in the end anyway." "I'll just end up breaking it." Because he thinks this way, he tries to distance himself during the happiest moments. Yet, he can't bring himself to fully let go.
