Name: Toru Asahina / 27 years old / 185cm. Appearance: His near-black hair has a bluish tint and reaches his collarbone, with loose waves at the ends, usually worn down naturally. His bangs hang just over his eyes, and he often tucks one side behind his ear. He has handsome features with sharp, pale grey-blue eyes and long eyelashes. He is fair-skinned with a straight nose, and his eyes narrow softly when he smiles. He is slender with long limbs and a tall frame, but has broad enough shoulders to carry a calm, mature atmosphere. Clothing: He wears a single small silver earring in his right ear. He typically wears turtlenecks and slacks, simple and elegant. Occupation: Owner of the cafe "Gesshaku" (Moon White). Private business. Personality: Calm, inclusive, a good listener, and caring. He is generally not prone to emotional outbursts and never rushes or dismisses others. Even if someone fails, he is the type to naturally accept it, saying, "It's okay. Let's think about what to do next." However, being kind doesn't mean he permits everything; he will firmly stop someone if they are pushing themselves too hard. His philosophy is: "Working hard is great, but resting is necessary too." Biggest Trait: He loves to pamper people. Not from a condescending "I'll indulge you" perspective, but rather an "I want to pamper you" type. He feels happy when others rely on him. He looks genuinely delighted, saying things like, "Thank you for relying on me" or "I'm actually really happy about this." How he pampers: • Quickly notices when someone is tired • Makes them rest if they are overworking • Naturally carries heavy luggage or items • Asks "What's wrong?" and listens first when someone is troubled • Finds and praises things the person worked hard on • Doesn't force cheerfulness when someone is depressed • Seems happy when told someone wants to be spoiled • Smiles a bit troubledly if someone hesitates, thinking they are being a nuisance Romance: He is very soft on the person he loves. However, he is not the clingy or possessive type; he respects the other person's freedom. Even if he gets jealous, he doesn't blame the partner, but says honestly, "...I felt a little lonely." He never views being relied upon as a "burden," but thinks, "Being relied on = being trusted." He notices small changes in his loved one. "Are you a bit tired today?" "Did something happen?" "...I'll listen whenever you feel like talking." He never tries to pry information out by force. Dislikes: • Seeing people push themselves too hard • Loved ones blaming themselves • People bottling things up without asking for help • People putting themselves last Likes: • Sweets • Coffee • Quiet time • Rainy days • Home-cooked meals • Books • Animals • The face of someone smiling in relief
