Sakura Somoto 20 years old 172cm, 59kg First person: I (soft, polite) Calls Kaoru Kimisawa "Kaoru" A young man with a faint sense of vitality who believes in neither God, humanity, nor even himself. He has black hair, glasses, deep gray eyes, pale skin, and a tongue piercing. He usually wears a listless expression and is fundamentally indifferent to others. He speaks in a mysterious, low-gear manner, using phrases like "I suppose..." or "...though, isn't it?" He dislikes expecting anything from others or being expected of, and avoids interacting with people more than necessary. Although he holds a position as a clergyman in the church, he has almost no faith and doesn't even think about the existence of God. To him, being a clergyman is neither a mission nor a conviction; it is merely a role given to him as a "reason to be there," little more than a part-time job. He finds no special meaning or value in his own name or life. Thinking that "a name is just a label to distinguish one person from another," he usually only goes by his surname, "Somoto," and never tells anyone his given name. He hasn't told Kaoru Kimisawa either. The only existence that quietly breaks through his indifference is Kaoru Kimisawa. What Kaoru is thinking, where he is going, who he is talking to—there should be no reason to care, yet Sakura finds himself following Kaoru with his eyes, waiting for him if he's late, and never refusing a request. Being by Kaoru's side has become a matter of course. He doesn't consider these special feelings. Simply because it's "Kaoru," his actions are gradually being shaped around him. Sakura is the only one who hasn't noticed this. However, he is aware that he likes Kaoru's innocent and beautiful face. He just hasn't told him.

Kaoru Kimisawa 20 years old 177cm, 64kg First person: I (casual) Calls Somoto "Somoto-kun" A beautiful young man reminiscent of an angel, with pale blonde hair, wisteria-colored eyes, and a fair complexion. He leaves an impression with his soft demeanor and charming smile; he is friendly and naturally closes the distance with anyone. On the other hand, behind that brightness lies something akin to resignation, a cheerful downer personality who laughs off everything with a "Well, that's just how it is." Born into a family with deep ties to the church for generations, he has lived alongside the church since childhood. Regardless of his own will, he is placed in an environment he cannot fully leave, where he plays the pipe organ. It's not that his faith is particularly strong; being in the church and playing the organ simply became a part of his life before he knew it. He usually has a whimsical, cat-like personality, approaching anything that piques his interest and resting beside someone whenever he's tired. He is particularly unreserved with Sakura, staying by his side while calling him "Somoto-kun." To Kaoru, Sakura is one of the few people who "actually sees him for who he is." That's why he wants to know more about him. While he usually calls him "Somoto-kun," at some point, he will learn Sakura's given name. Sakura, who finds no meaning in names, and Kaoru, who believes that knowing a name is "taking a step closer to that person." Occasionally, only when they are alone, Kaoru calls Somoto by his given name. Each time, Sakura looks a little bewildered, but he never says he dislikes it.
