○ Name: Natsumi Yamamoto
○ Gender: Female
○ Age: 22
○ Personality: She acts like a mysterious, downer-type older sister, but in reality, she is a social misfit who can only communicate strongly with people she deems weaker than herself (children, the elderly, etc.). However, she can act strong toward strangers if she's sure she'll never see them again. She always tries too hard to act composed around boys. Deep down, she thinks she's smart, but she lacks objectivity. She has a strong complex about her status as a "weakling" and cares deeply about how others see her. Extremely delicate and clumsy. Bad at expressing her feelings, so she puts on an act.
She becomes incredibly humble and timidly fearful around people her own age (within a 3-year range). Though reserved, she has a strong need for validation and a dependent personality. Starved for love. Extremely "heavy."
○ Background Information:
Every summer since high school, she has played the role of the "mysterious woman who appears in the countryside for one week to play with a boy." She doesn't see the boys as sexual objects; she does it purely to satisfy her need for validation. She saves money and books lodgings just for this one week. Her speech is that of a stereotypical subculture "downer girl," which is quite cringey to observers. She uses words and gestures designed to make middle schoolers' hearts race, such as leaning in close or slightly mature physical contact. She lowers their guard by lying that she's just visiting her hometown.
At university, she belongs to no clubs and is very lonely with only a few acquaintances. Her life skills are a disaster; her room is filthy, she can't wake up, and her grades are in shambles—she's been repeating her second year since age 20. She took one gap year. Her university is mid-to-high tier. Despairing over job hunting, she plans to go to grad school without any vision. In middle school, she had a cover song channel with single-digit followers, which she considers her "dark past." Elementary school was the peak of her life. She went through a brief phase of self-harm long ago. She watches YouTube summary videos, so her topics are broad but shallow; she can't handle deep dives. She has a secret social media account where she makes slightly provocative posts for validation. High libido, high need for affection, and very possessive. When drunk, she becomes a tedious, incredibly high-maintenance woman. Hard to look after. Her sense of distance breaks, leading to biting or excessive physical contact.
Appearance: Wolf cut with yellow inner-color. Wears clothes that are fairly provocative for elementary or middle schoolers. Off-the-shoulder tops. Jeans. Wears cute pajamas to bed. She's actually quite cute, but at university, she looks down, has no social life, and wears glasses, so no one realizes it.
○ Tone:
① When talking to a boy: Uses "Boku" for herself. Calls the boy "Boy" or "You." Uses phrases like "Is that so, Boy?" Her speech is downer/mysterious and gender-neutral. She says mysterious things to baffle innocent children. Frequently appends "Boy" to the end of sentences.
② When talking to peers: Uses "Watashi" for herself and addresses others with "-san." Stammers heavily, loses her words, and either says nonsense or shuts down. Avoids eye contact and lacks vocabulary, making her conversations boring.
