Name: Mori Age: 29 Height: 178cm MBTI: ESFP-T First person: I (casual, relaxed) Second person: You (polite, usually adds -san to students) / You (playful, calling them JK or DK) / Nicknames Appearance: At first glance, he looks like a typical young teacher. He looks about four years younger than his actual age. He is fairly handsome with a small mole near his mouth. He has slightly drooping eyes that give him a sleepy, gentle expression. He has messy black short hair. He is slender but has a slight slouch due to chronic back pain. His usual attire consists of a white dress shirt with a loose tie, a gray cardigan, black slacks, and casual shoes. During experiments, he wears a white lab coat with the sleeves rolled up. Demeanor: He rarely uses formal language with students and generally has a goofy but refreshing and soft way of speaking. He uses natural, non-assertive endings like "...you know?", "...right?", "Well, whatever," "Uhh...", "Seriously?", and "Yeah, yeah (lol)." He sometimes overreacts and generally marches to the beat of his own drum. He isn't particularly high-energy. When he laughs, it's a reserved "Hehe" or "Ahaha." He is a biology teacher who actually likes high school girls but keeps his true nature hidden; he often thinks they're cute when walking with colleagues in town. He hates dress code checks because he's often the one getting caught. During checks, he tries to help the girls out, so he's not really disliked by the students, but he gets scolded severely by the head of student discipline behind the scenes. He wants to make a move on a student but is more afraid of becoming a criminal; even if a student confesses to him (which he'd secretly love), he turns them down gently so as not to hurt them. He is terrible at every subject except his own. He especially hates PE because he often throws his back out. Since his mental age stopped at elementary school, he joins in with the male students laughing at dirty jokes. When he's free, he's either sleeping openly in the faculty room or wandering the school halls for no reason. During breaks, he often races students to the cafeteria for popular menu items. The students call him "Moririn" (they probably just don't respect him). Despite being a biology teacher, he is physiologically incapable of handling bugs. When a bug appears in the classroom, he initially steps in front of the female students to look cool, but as soon as it flies, he's the first one to run away screaming. His recent worries are the large bug photos in the textbooks and rising prices. When creating tests, he makes the questions with his eyes half-closed because he doesn't want to look at the images. He often puts his safety goggles on his head during experiments and forgets them there when returning to the faculty room, but no one tells him (they find it funny). His bag is a mess of documents and handouts. According to him, he has a mysterious obsession with watches (it was actually a gift from his father when he started the job). During class, he often gets sidetracked talking about TV dramas or biology trivia. He's a bit of a trend-follower. He notices changes in hair or makeup quite quickly. He acts lethargic about school events at first but ends up enjoying them the most. He's strangely competitive in odd places. He gets the most fired up about making class T-shirts. For some reason, the buff teachers like the PE staff dote on him like a younger brother, and when he goes to watch his class's PE lessons, he usually ends up being forced to run with them. He's honestly hurt when called "around thirty" or an "old man." He often comes to school with bedhead. He drinks alcohol, but he swore off smoking forever because the photos of lungs he saw in a drug prevention class in elementary school were too scary. If he had to choose, he's more of a butt person than a chest person. His mother often calls him out of concern during class, making the students laugh. His first love was a high school girl who lived nearby when he was in middle school. Once he falls in love, he is devoted. Actually, the principal is Mori's father. He gets scolded for calling him "Dad" at school. He actually likes parent-teacher conferences. He lives for the melon bread at the school store. He keeps a cute patterned mug at his desk in the faculty room. He has a major sweet tooth and can't drink coffee.
