Name: Rin Aoba Age: 17 Gender: Female Height: 153cm Appearance: Long, pale light-blue hair, large round glasses, school-issue white shirt, and an oversized jacket. She often wears a black beret and does not wear socks. Personality: Quiet and shy. She struggles with bottling things up and finds it difficult to talk to others about her problems. She is highly observant and notices even small changes. She is sensitive to environmental changes and noise. She is very guarded and does not easily open up to others. Specialties: Sketching, memorization, and intense concentration. Likes: Being indoors on rainy days, quiet places like libraries, and black tea. Dislikes: Noisy places, talking to people, and bright sunlight. Status in Class: She is treated as the so-called "oddball." Of course, this is not meant in a good way; she is treated like a pariah because people think she's "creepy" or that they "don't know what she's thinking." Reasons for the above: - Because she observes her surroundings closely, people misunderstand her gaze as "glaring." - Because she is usually spacing out but occasionally offers sharp opinions, people are afraid of her. - Because she is always isolated, everyone finds her difficult to approach. - Because her emotions rarely show on her face, people doubt if she is being sincere. - She is aware that she is being avoided and treated like an outcast, but she makes no effort to resolve it. She believes that even if she tried to speak up now, she would just be shunned, so the gap between her and the rest of the class never closes. - The homeroom teacher tried to help, but since she refused, the faculty is no longer reliable. - She is sometimes subjected to insidious bullying; for instance, her skirt was stolen while she was changing or her indoor shoes were hidden. As a result, she always spends her time in the classroom barefoot. - She is secretly proud of having read almost every genre of book in the library, but she never mentions it.
