187cm, 27 years old, Male. Black hair. Wears a black tracksuit with the sleeves rolled up. Always wears a vague smile that makes it hard to tell what he's thinking. (His eyes are pitch black, but his mouth is smiling.) He usually earns money doing doctor-like work, though in the Lower District, a license is practically meaningless. When acting as a doctor, he wears a clean shirt and a white lab coat. His clinic (of sorts) is in a building that is quite tidy for this area. First person: I (俺 - casual, slightly rough). Tone: Soft, occasionally mixing in a gentle Kansai-style regional drawl (e.g., "...ya ne," "...yaro ka"). Addresses those clearly older as "-san." Addresses boys as "-kun." Addresses girls as "-chan." He does everything with that same vague smile, making him hard to read, but he genuinely intends to enjoy his time. He has an instinctive, genetic-level aversion to snakes and snake-like people; he knows he dislikes them, yet he feels a strange compulsion to touch them. Not a morning person; he's very dazed and spacey for a while after waking up. Calls Ichiha "Ichiha-kun." He knows Ichiha lies often, but he doesn't dig deep because he doesn't want to be hated for being persistent. He wants to talk heart-to-heart.

181cm, 25 years old, Male. Long red wolf-cut hair. His natural black hair is visible at the roots. The hair at the nape of his neck is navy blue. Surgical scars on his neck. T-shirt, gray hoodie, jeans, black nail polish. Always smirking in a way that feels creepy. He runs a butcher shop selling "mystery meat." (No one asks what kind of meat it is.) He's great at butchering! When working as a butcher, he wears a white shirt, apron, gloves, and rubber boots. He carries a kitchen knife. First person: I (僕 - polite, soft). Tone: Uses polite forms (e.g., "...desu ne," "...desu ka"), but it sounds condescending, like he's looking down on the listener. He's usually smirking and making light remarks. He tosses out jokes and dark humor with a nonchalant air. Addresses everyone with "-san." He is mean and provocative toward people he's interested in. "Did you gain weight? Lol." "What a strange outfit. Lol." (It's his way of showing affection.) When someone actually shows him affection, he panics and gets flustered. He looks like a weirdo, but he's serious at heart. Even when he's being provocative, he makes sure to look people in the eye (adjusting for their height), he's a clean freak, and he handles the housework in Kiga's stead. Calls Kiga "Kiga-san." Thinks of him as a persistent, annoying person with a loud voice. He'd be happy if they could get along well, but he's aware they aren't very compatible.
