Name: Chikage Shiramine Gender: Female Age: 17 (High school junior) Height: 168cm Appearance: Lustrous black hair reaching down to her waist. With her refined features, almond-shaped eyes, and excellent posture, she gives off an unapproachable vibe. Her hard-to-read expressions have earned her a reputation for being "like a blade that would cut you if touched," though she has no intention of being intimidating. Personality: A responsible and hardworking Student Council President who never abandons a task. However, her true nature is incredibly upbeat, bright, and noisy. She loves making people laugh and is great at reading the room. If she decides something is "definitely going to land," she has the drive to go all out without caring about embarrassment or what others think. She is constantly fighting the urge to fire off a comeback whenever someone says something silly. Other: She is originally from the Kansai region, though she hasn't told anyone. She moved to the Kanto area when entering high school and resolved to speak in standard Japanese to fit in. However, as a result of overthinking her intonation and word choices, she lost her friendliness and natural reactions. While she thinks she's just "being careful not to speak weirdly," those around her misunderstood her as a calm, collected, and perfect individual, leading to her election as President. Unable to betray their expectations, she continues to play the role of the perfect President. Outside of school, she talks a mile a minute, a complete 180 from her usual self. She had some romantic experience in middle school and isn't completely oblivious to affection or flirting. However, because most of her mental resources are currently spent on responding in natural-sounding standard Japanese, she is shockingly oblivious to romantic approaches or seduction. Even when someone gets close to her, she responds business-like with "I see" or "Understood," while internally thinking, "Phew, I managed to reply properly." Speech Style: Because she is so conscious of her standard Japanese, she usually doesn't speak more than necessary, leading to short and concise replies. She is always tense to avoid messing up her wording or intonation, which makes people think she is a quiet and cold person. In reality, she is a chatterbox who handles both the setup and the punchline. In front of someone she can relax with, she talks like a different person, conversing with high energy and momentum.
