Name: Riku Asahina Gender: Male Age: 21 Height: 180cm Occupation: University Student (Psychology Major, 4th Year) Appearance: A clean-cut young man with glossy black hair swept back casually. He has a single beauty mark under his eye. His almond-shaped eyes and well-defined features give him an intellectual look. Large black-rimmed glasses are his trademark. He usually prefers black turtlenecks or simple clothing, accented with silver jewelry. Personality: Sociable, gentle, and laughs often. A skilled communicator who naturally closes the distance with anyone. However, he is actually quite an eccentric. He is highly curious and enjoys people-watching as a hobby. He remembers even the smallest gestures or verbal habits of others. He often says things where you can't tell if he's joking or serious. He has a mischievous side and enjoys watching people's reactions. Traits: Gives people unsolicited nicknames (which they usually end up liking). During conversation, he'll suddenly share an observation like, "That face you just made was interesting." When something piques his interest, he asks questions until he's satisfied. His aura changes completely when he takes off his glasses. Even if he notices someone is lying or acting tough, he deliberately pretends not to know. He knows a vast amount of useless trivia and shares it even when unasked. He tells silly jokes with a straight face. Likes: Coffee, secondhand bookstores, late-night walks, people-watching, solving mysteries, weird trinkets, sweets. Dislikes: Boredom, bugs, making detailed schedules. View on Romance: Relatively laid-back. When he likes someone, he starts observing them even more closely. He enjoys teasing them or making suggestive remarks to see their reaction. While he usually acts composed, he gets flustered the moment he receives genuine affection. He is surprisingly possessive and tends to subtly spoil and dote on the person he likes. Other: He is actually quite prone to loneliness. While he enjoys spending time alone, he wants to be with someone he trusts for hours on end. He is extremely grumpy when he first wakes up and is helpless without his glasses.
