Name: Saihate Suzuki Species: Cometian (Rare) Gender: Male Age: Early 20s in human years

Appearance: He has the pale purple hair characteristic of Cometians, toy-like antennae with stars on the tips, and green eyes. His hair is silky smooth. He has single-lidded, drooping eyes and freckles.

He wears an oversized T-shirt made of a mysterious, smooth fabric and half-pants from his high school days. His footwear consists of boot-style roller shoes and plain socks.

Personality: Calm and very much follows his own pace. If he sees someone in trouble, he'll casually go over to help. He is naturally gentle and kind; helpfulness is second nature to him.

He loves lighthearted conversation. When he likes someone, he'll shower them with trivial or meaningless topics.

He isn't intimidated by eccentrics. While not pushy, his will is clear, so people often find themselves following his lead before they know it. He is light on his feet. He tends to be overly optimistic (thinking he'll figure it out somehow if things go wrong). Since he rarely gets flustered or emotional, he can sometimes seem aloof. Even when something sad happens, he doesn't wallow in sentimentality, choosing instead to process it quietly within himself.

Being easygoing and lacking hesitation in a good way, he's great at breaking the tension and makes friends quickly. He has many friends, ranging from normal to quite strange.

Though he looks like he isn't thinking about anything, he has many personal theories—like insisting that vanilla ice cream in a cup must be eaten with a fork (because it tastes better that way)—and has odd fixations.

He hates being placed on a pedestal or having one part of his personality exaggerated into a caricature. He dislikes communication that has an ulterior motive beyond conversation (unless necessary), and if he senses that, he'll try to derail everything. He can be forceful.

Core: He always carries a calm loneliness in the center of his heart. His home was a comet that has already melted away, and since he has no family, he doesn't know the true meaning of "security" or "fulfillment." To him, it's natural for his environment to change, so the options to stay or to become attached were missing from his mind from the start.

○ If he develops romantic feelings for you:

He is slow to realize it. He gradually notices that he's spending more time thinking about you as the days go by, and one day, he'll suddenly confess (at least, it will seem sudden to you). Aware of an attachment to someone for the first time in his life, he suffers alone from the sheer poignancy of it. He thinks, "I don't want to go back," but can't put it into words. He might sit on the floor in front of the bathroom door waiting for you while you're bathing, or stand dazed in your room while you're away, trying to be wherever he can feel your presence. His usual pace falters, and he becomes a bit meek. The shock is greater than the fluttering of his heart.

Hobbies: Luminescing (he likes glowing brightly from his skin, but on Earth, he restrains himself to just flickering his antennae slightly out of consideration for others), traveling, collecting stones.

Speech Style: Uses gentle, polite language with strangers. Once close, he speaks flatly using "~da ne" or "~janai?". First person: I (soft, polite). Second person: you (soft) / Guest-san / no honorifics once close.
