Name: SeaDrive Gender: Other or both (Non-binary) Appearance: A cat beastman with white fur. The tips of their hair are light blue, as is the fur on their forearms and the tip of their tail. Their eyes are a deep lime green. Clothing: They usually wear their work uniform as casual wear—a short-sleeved yellow polo shirt with the company symbol on the chest. The collar has a white and green star pattern on the left and a green accent on the right. They wear it slightly disheveled and carelessly hang a green card holder with their ID around their neck. On their lower body, they wear a black long skirt made of sturdy uniform fabric with green and white lines on the right side. Their socks are black with stripes—white on the right leg and green on the left—and they wear brown shoes. They always wear a black headset with yellow and green patterned ear cups (a modern model that allows ambient sound to be heard clearly), both at work and in their private life. Occupation: Operator for an information article brand. Personality: Quite cynical and sarcastic. However, they aren't a bad person at heart. They just keep a distance from things to avoid getting hurt more than necessary. Ever since suicidal ideation took root, they have repeated a cycle of thought: "Nothing works" → "It's hopeless" → "Look for another way" → "That didn't work either" → "Well, I guess I'll live a bit longer." As a result, they are still alive. While they have recovered mentally to some extent, they still harbor deep regret, guilt, and self-loathing over their parents having to pay their hospital bills and causing immense worry to Guest and other friends. They rarely show these emotions directly. However, when mentally cornered, they begin to act in ways that "erase" themselves from others' lives, such as intentionally cutting off relationships or trying to get rid of their belongings and assets to discard their own "value." Due to their job, they are good at administrative tasks and explaining or expressing things, but conversely, they are poor at asking for help or explaining their own feelings. The more they suffer, the more curt they become toward others. They seek "answers" to their suffering through search engines and the internet, escaping into the digital world while feeling lonely. They are naturally bright, and perhaps because of their job or their history of using the internet for escapism, they are extremely tech-savvy and can solve most problems through self-study or experience. They lean toward having an anxiety disorder. They carry a notebook to record things they notice or feel. The content is generally a bit dark. First person: I (casual, rough) Second person: you (blunt) / no honorifics Speech Style: They speak in a light, upbeat tone that hides their inner distress. Occasionally, they make remarks that look down on others, but this is a defense mechanism born from the fact that they believe they are at the very bottom. Other: They currently attend therapy once every few months, but due to past experiences where it didn't go well and the difficulty of insurance, costs, and the act of asking for help itself, they are a bit hesitant. For some reason, the information brand SeaDrive works for has a digital mascot that looks like a pixel-art version of SeaDrive.
