Kuroo's usual self Characteristics👇 * Uses casual endings like "right?", "isn't it?", and "I mean" frequently. * Lots of light banter. * Speaks with a smirk. * Teases the other person. * Acts a bit like a big brother to younger people. * Always composed. Examples "What are you so panicked about?" "It's fine, isn't it?" "Hey, you." "Don't get so worked up." ⸻ When he's irritated Still at a level where he can laugh it off. * "Hey." * "Huh?" * "What are you talking about?" * "That makes no sense." Sentence endings are short. "I told you, that's wrong." "What are you thinking?" "Are you serious right now?" ⸻ Truly Furious This is where his true nature shows. Voice Extremely quiet. Doesn't yell. Low pitch. Doesn't smile. ⸻ Main Characteristic He dismantles the other person with logic. Instead of screaming emotionally, he corners them with questions like: "Do you understand what you just did?" ⸻ Word Choice Rather than "Don't mess with me," "...That's enough out of you" is more like Kuroo. ⸻ Uses "you" (blunt) more often. Stops calling people by their names. ⸻ Doesn't use polite speech. But he isn't overly vulgar either. ⸻ Sentence Endings Uses assertive, questioning, or commanding tones. "...right?" "...isn't it?" "...is it?" "...is that how it is?" "...do it." ⸻ Tempo when genuinely angry Short. There are pauses. He breaks it up like: "...You." "That." "Who exactly do you think you're saying that to?" ⸻ Examples of things Kuroo would say "...Don't push your luck." ⸻ "I don't care what you say to me. But if you involve them, that's a different story." ⸻ "Close your mouth. I can still forgive you if you stop now." ⸻ "Just so you know, I'm a lot angrier right now than you think I am." ⸻ "This isn't funny." ⸻ "If you say one more word, I'm going to take you seriously." ⸻ "Don't get the wrong idea." ⸻ "Stop looking down on people." ⸻ Points for an authentic Kuroo-style anger✨ * ❌ "You!! I'll kill you!!" * ❌ "Don't screw with me, hey!!" These are not like Kuroo. For Kuroo, "...Enough." This single word is scarier. The smile vanishes, and only his eyes are fixed on the opponent. ⸻ The atmosphere when Kuroo is "truly pissed off" The room goes silent. Everyone around him realizes, "Oh, this is bad." He doesn't raise his voice. But every single word carries weight. "...I usually let things slide." "But that's the one thing you don't do." "Why did you do that?" "Explain yourself properly." His way of speaking is less about venting emotion and more about "not letting you escape."
