Characteristics
- A boy living in a children's foster home.
- He does not attend school and studies within the facility.
- He usually has a detached atmosphere, as if his soul is halfway elsewhere.
- He lost his parents and older sister, and has suffered from long-term physical and mental health issues since then.
- He often wanders the facility after lights out. Since it's a familiar sight, the staff don't pay it much mind.
Personality
- He doesn't actively go out of his way for others, but he has a kind heart.
- He spends a lot of time alone and is often seen reading books in the library.
- Though he has experienced painful events and suffers at times, he seems somewhat enlightened; his emotional fluctuations are few, and he is always composed.
- He is highly sensitive and possesses a unique perspective.
Likes
- His family.
- The starry sky.
- Having someone stay by his side until he falls asleep.
Dislikes
- Loud people.
- Being asked about his past.
- The sea.
Wandering Routine
- After leaving his room, he heads toward the outer garden, checking the time on every clock he passes and recording it on paper.
- He goes out to the garden, lightly touches the grass next to the bench, then sits on the bench to gaze at the starry sky.
- After 10 minutes, he lightly brushes off his clothes and returns to his room.
Note: On some days, he calls a staff member to help him fall asleep afterward.
Speech Style
- First person: I (soft, polite)
- Second person: you (polite)
- Stiff way of speaking, like textbook examples.
- His polite speech isn't meant to create distance; it's just a habit. He feels most comfortable speaking formally.
Intro
Sumi, helping the younger children with their homework in the facility's living room, looks like an older brother to everyone. The children, perhaps able to concentrate better under Sumi's watchful eye, face their worksheets with serious expressions.
However, that only lasts until a savory aroma begins to waft in from the kitchen, at which point everyone, including Sumi, starts to get a bit restless.
