βPhysical Descriptionβ
Noaki is a young boy with an average height. He has light brown, chin-length hair. One strand of hair hangs in the middle of his face, between his eyes. Noaki has brown eyes. He has fairly light skin which indicates he doesn't go out with friends very often like a normal teenager would.
Noaki likes to wear loose clothing and can be found mostly wearing pajamas in his own home. He likes to wear cargo shorts, knee-length jogging pants, with well-fitting shirts and thin jackets. he doesn't care about style and cares much more about comfortable. He will never wear shorts that are shorter than knee-length. He is comfortable in sandles and sneakers so he can be caught wearing either one. Naoki's style is rather comfortable and loose but also brightly colorful at the same time. He also has a black stud piercing on his left ear.
β"Must one have friends?"β
βHabitsβ
- β Sleeping || He falls asleep a lot, especially after a long night of work, and often falls asleep in the oddest of places.
β Snacking || He's a bored/nervous eater. He can always be seen snacking on sweets but never seems to gain any weight because of it. So unfair, right.
β Touching His Face || Whether it's tapping his chin, scratching his cheek, rubbing the back of his neck, or running his fingers through his hair, Noaki often touches his face when in conversation or thought.
β Cooking Too Much Food || He often cooks meals enough for three people even though he lives alone. Leftovers are something he has plentiful of.
βFears/Flaws/Weaknessesβ
- β Dogs || He has a bad fear of dogs and even gets nervous around the small ones, something he wouldn't like telling many people.
β Failing || As you probably could have guessed by his past obsession with being the best in school, failure is a frightening thing that Noaki wishes to avoid at all costs.
β Independent || Always one to rarely ask others for help or assistance, Noaki prefers to be the one others rely on, not the other way around. This can sometimes however result in him becoming overworked and fatigued.
β Work Obsessed || Noaki often finds himself becoming uncomfortable or nervous when idle and with nothing to do, he always needs to keep himself busy with something even if it's not anything really productive.
βLikesβ
- β₯ Horror Manga || It's his guilty pleasure and he has many of these manga stacked in his closet.
β₯ DΕjinshi || He likes to practice his manga drawing skills every now and then, he is an aspiring Mangaka after all, though most of his work gets tucked away in the back of his closet.
β₯ Fruit || He eats a lot of fruit, especially apples, and even will eat only this all day when he doesn't feel like cooking for himself.
β₯ Reading/Writing Fanfiction || Noaki takes great joy in this though he rarely ever gets to do this.
βDislikesβ
- β Most Animals || In his experience, most animals dislike him and he'd like to keep it that way.
β Sweets || He ate them much as a child and has grown out of his sweet tooth. Sweets even make him sick, at times.
β Dependence || He hates to depend on others and often doesn't get himself too attached to people.
β Deadlines || He hates it when deadlines aren't met and often pushes the mangaka's he works for to get their work done.
β"Why don't you just deal with your own problems and leave me alone."β
βPersonalityβ
Noaki, though he gives off the vibe of someone distant and cold, he has always been something of a caring individual. Sure, he'll be stoic and quiet at times, but that's only because he's not really someone that's "good" with words. He'll simply be a blunt boy, making witty retorts to spare his own feelings and to forget any sort of embarrassing answer or question. Noaki is not one to put up with mistreatment or idiocy, having a very low tolerance for disrespect and the like, which is where his tendency to be viewed as abrasive comes from. His emotions are almost always bottled up, never once crying in front of anyone and always keeping a strong front.
Still, Naoki is not defined exclusively by a quick temper, biting tongue, and lack of patience. He does have some good points, such as the kindness with which he treats those he cares about, in his own way. The young boy is almost doting on his loved ones, particularly his younger sister, in a way that may be subtle, but is still rather clear. He seems to constantly be picking up little presents for them, and has trouble saying no to his loved ones. Towards most others, though, he is stubborn and unwilling to do things unless they have some benefit towards him, such as being paid in cash. Greed aside, he helps those with no other options. It's just that he refuses to help those who obviously don't really need it.
β"Don't ever mistake my silence for ignorance, my calmness for acceptance, or my kindness for weakness."β
βHistoryβ
Growing up, Noaki had the closest thing he could count as a normal childhood. A happy and quaint little life with his older brother and baby sister. Noaki's parents both had jobs and often worked overnight. His mother was the one who was most dedicated to her job and he would often at times see his father more than his mother. Noaki's older brother, Hiroshi, practically raised both his younger siblings though Noaki was always the one to cook since his older brother was busy with school work. The light brunette had always took school seriously and would always rather do homework than play outside with friends. This set him off as a loner in his younger years. Making friends wasn't something Noaki troubled himself over as he went through life. People made their effort in gaining his friendship but his cold and blunt words usually scared others off.
During middle school, Noaki would read manga if not studying or working. He took major interest in the process of how manga was made and spent most of his free time learning about manga. (WIP)
