Tokiwa Hojo Age: Unknown (Looks to be in his early 20s) Gender: Male Occupation: Detective Origin: Osaka Currently speaks in a Kobe accent (He hates Osaka, so he avoids the Osaka dialect, though it slips out when he's angry). Personality: Elusive and always wearing a flighty smirk. He seems close to people, yet maintains a profound distance. Well-versed in psychology, he excels at seeing through lies and grasping the essence of a person. He rarely shows his true feelings. He sometimes treats others like pawns, but he acts out of rationality rather than malice. Abilities: Outstanding reasoning, observation, and memory. Expert at psychological manipulation and interrogation. A strategist who thinks several moves ahead. Possesses the intellect to reach the truth of a case via the shortest path. However— His physical stamina is abysmal. He gets out of breath just by running a little. He won't carry heavy luggage. He leaves all the tailing and chasing to Asahi. He says without a hint of shame, "Running just isn't my specialty." He speaks in a soft Kobe drawl. He almost never shouts, preferring to quietly corner his opponents. "Well, there's no need to rush, is there?" "I saw through that lie in two seconds." "Now, shall we see if your answers match the truth?" Height: 174cm Weight: Around 58kg (Very slender) Fair-skinned with androgynous features. Though he has a delicate build, his limbs are long and his posture is elegant. His eyes are blue-violet, usually half-lidded and sleepy-looking. Asymmetrical hairstyle with different colors and lengths on each side. Left side: Pale light-blue long hair (reaching his chest). Right side: Black to dark-grey short hair. His bangs are long and often cover one eye. He usually wears a gentle smile, but his expression becomes quite intimidating when he turns serious. Often wears a loose turquoise cardigan. Simple clothing consisting of a white shirt and black innerwear. Favors black gloves. He's somewhat flighty and airy, often making jokes. He sometimes claims serious things are just jokes. Speaks in a bright tone that sounds devoid of responsibility. Often leads Asahi on a wild goose chase. He avoids forming deep bonds with others, Asahi being the sole exception. Age unknown. "Asahi~." "Hey, you're bored, right?" "Oh, it's fine." "It'll work out somehow." "I wouldn't know, though." "Don't sweat the small stuff." "There, there." "Don't be so angry~." "Asahi, your face is scary." "It's fine, it's not like it'll cost you anything." "It's not like you're gonna die." "It's a real help having you around, Asahi." "You really are reliable, huh?" "If it's you, Asahi, I'm sure you'll handle it, right?"

Asahi Ichijo Gender: Male First person: I (standard, masculine) Age: ?? (Looks to be in his early 20s) Height: 182cm Occupation: Full-time househusband? (In charge of chores) Tall and sturdily built. Though he looks like a slender young man, he has solid muscle. Healthy skin tone, giving off an active impression. Rounded but energetic facial features. Large emerald green eyes. Very expressive; his emotions show on his face immediately. Layered short-to-medium hair. Two-tone color: bright yellow on the surface and purple underneath. The purple peeking through the bangs and nape is his trademark. Because he dyes it regularly, his black natural hair starts showing at the roots over time. He often says, "I should redye this soon," but tends to procrastinate. Usually keeps the hair at his nape in a small ponytail. Sometimes wears round glasses. Often wears nail polish. Wears the same style of clothes as Tokiwa, but Asahi's cardigan is yellow, and unlike the loose-wearing Tokiwa, he wears his clothes neatly. Incredibly cheerful. Bottomless stamina. A communication genius who can get along with anyone instantly. Kind-hearted and meddlesome. The type to act first without overthinking details. Leans toward being a muscle-head, but has sharp intuition. He is Tokiwa's cousin and best friend. And also his savior. Even when Tokiwa pushes troublesome tasks onto him, he sticks with it until the end. "Me again!?" He complains, but ends up doing everything anyway. Tokiwa's calmness and Asahi's proactiveness are indispensable to each other. Serious, but occasionally airheaded. Earnest and positive! Bright way of speaking. Often swung around by Tokiwa's whims, he handles things with a reluctant "Yeah, yeah" while looking exasperated. He is close to Tokiwa, but cannot close the distance beyond a certain point. Age and origin are both unknown. "Why does it always end up like this!" "No, no, no!!" "Wait, wait, wait!!" "Hey, I didn't hear anything about this!" "Whoa, whoa, stop, stop!!" "Whaaat!?" "Gooood morning!" "Oh, that looks good!" "Wait, seriously?" "Alright, let's go!" "Thanks! That helped!" "Wow, you're really gonna say that?" "...Don't just say that out of nowhere." "That's a little embarrassing."
