    style

    Button-ups, pencil skirts, & kitten heels.

    Out of everyone in the office, Ikue might be the best dressed or most likely to generally look after her appearance, which isn't saying much. She's fashionable enough to have kept friends from undergrad off her back, but only to that degree.

    Made the mistake of wearing light colors her first couple of weeks on the job & has since mended this error after the dry cleaning bills that ensued. Clean-cut & modern in all aspects aside from her work bag & lanyard which are both jingle from countless chain & beaded accessories from the boutiques she visits on off-days.

    Caught outside of work, she typically elects for a preppy, girlish aesthetic. Of course, these days, work hardly gives her time to herself; if she ever is caught outside of the office, it's likely in a hoodie & gym shorts.

    Likes to crop her hair just a little past the nape of her neck. Her uneven bangs are the result of an impulsive trim after her accidental transfer, then half-refined by trial & error. Infrequently will tie what little hair she has up, making a little paintbrush at the back of her head.

    build

    Was in the best shape at the height of her orientation & subsequent days as a contractor. Has since lost some definition in her recent assignment as secretary.

    body mods

    Minimally scarred knees & shins from taking a few too many falls as a new contractor.

    habits

    When everyone's out of the office, she likes to keep herself company by talking out loud. Works only when in the presence of others; caught alone, she's not above wasting time on her phone. In her defense, most of her work's done within the first hour of her shift; the rest is spent just trying to look busy.

    of all things, the most notable regarding his character is her height.

    anticipating the extent that he'd end up playing the game (especially if it were anything like ALFA's other games) & not wanting to come out of long sessions disoriented, elias elected for his in-game character to share his irl height. as a result, his faerie's limbs are awkwardly stretched to accommodate this; even his race's native areas aren't suited for the decision in character making. lore-wise, it's a miracle she wasn't culled at birth or whatever faeries do; he's never been a big story buff.

    besides this, elias' faerie character is the understandable product of a young man. her sliders were carelessly decided in a way that appealed to him at a glance.

    [ Through laughter: "Don't โ€” don't judge me. Faerie is the strongest class โ€” sorry, race โ€” in the game right now. I tried the male model & it just... I can't." ]


    light grey eyes & dark curls reflect a dull, grey-lavender. countlessly layered, her hair at her longest point reaches her midback. adorning her head are feathered, twin hairpieces. shrouded by fringe are similarly twinned wings behind her ears that mirror those at her back: water-damaged & translucent, general wear at their ends with a dark venation.

adelaide
Furse
In summertime on Bredon, the bells they sound so clear; round both the shires they ring them in steeples far and near, a happy noise to hear. Here of a Sunday morning my love and I would lie, and see the coloured counties, and hear the larks so high about us in the sky. The bells would ring to call her in valleys miles away; "Come all to church, good people; good people come and pray." But here my love would stay. And I would turn and answer among the springing thyme, "Oh, peal upon our wedding, and we will hear the chime, and come to church in time." A tree on Bredon Hill, a lonely tree stands on Bredon Hill, but when the snows at Christmas on Bredon top were strown, my love rose up so early and stole out unbeknown and went to church alone.

A woman of above average stature with an angular build softened by the ruffles & frills of her uniform. Adelaide often walks with a bowed head, hiding away grey eyes whose lower scleral show; as a result of her height, she often slumps. It doesn't help that her pastime before the war was spent hunched over a drafting board & now over flat tables whenever mending clothing. Stress has taken a toll on her & presents itself within her physique; her hair, her brows, her nails... all thin & frail. Her skin especially so, particularly pallid. At nights, her maid's cap comes off with a considerable amount of stray, blonde hairs. Despite this, she is sensible about maintaining her appearance. Trust her to dedicate perhaps an hour of out her week to head into the town's salon for a trim of her strategically cut bob: mindfully layered to give the allusion of fullness.

Drawing, movies, & designing clothing.
interests
fashion & art

From afar, the best word to describe Adelaide is regular. Carries herself well enough, minimizes her presence, is often even a bit stiff. Within areas off limits to children, where only peers can hear her, her poor nature gets the better of her. It's not uncommon that she explodes at a display of incompetence, as she loses her patience quite quickly. She's a rather straightforward person with little tolerance for nonsense. In truth, frustration boils up inside her quite easily & it's only in these brief moments that she allows herself some release; managing her anger isn't within her interest.

Towards the children, however, she's gentle & calm. Quick to offer a mending to their clothing & busy herself with that. In this way, she's quite kind with them. She'll tolerate any curious lines of thinking they might have with extraordinary patience & sometimes even interest. When it comes to a child, it's as though the whimsy of her younger self possesses her to entertain & soothe children. She'll gladly offer a doodle of whatever they'd like, perhaps even a trick shot into the bin.

Despite this, her voice still comes evenly, with her characteristic dull cadence, even in moments like those; the only time it doesn't is when she's lost her patience. As a whole, she can come across as gloomy because of this voice.

In her time at Lockheed, she's experienced more bad things than good come from the oddities of children & her peers. To her knowledge, she's managed to fend off this infliction. She feels as though oddities are something of an illness, something to be cured, so she has little tolerance for them. At first, she felt wonderfully curious towards them, but now... she knows better.

backstory
trauma points
Fears her own incompetence, relics of wartime, & coughing.
warning: parent death, miscarriage

Daughter of a single mother, it went without saying that her autumn birth was something of a miracle in a tenement that struggled to keep warm.

Her rearing was regular. School was a bit lonesome, as she was rather testy with her peers even back then; schoolwork came easily to her, so it frustrated her when it did not for others. Come 16, she'd graduated without issue & without much to do afterwards. Her mother coddled her & expected nothing of her, leaving her to do as she pleased. She'd find herself spending her days within their city, idling & humoring herself to whatever whim crossed her. Often, those whims led her to libraries & booksellers that tolerated her loitering; admittedly, she didn't do much reading, rather looking at the illustrations & cartoons that accompanied children's books or weekly editions. After enough visits, she earned herself a seat behind the help counter: an opportunity to doodle for passersby who checked out. In reality, a means to free up the desk for those who came to study.

It wasn't long before her ability was noticed, particularly by the little girl whose father apparently edited at a bookselling & publishing house. It took a couple months of them passing by, but eventually their interactions became this: the two would come in after the father's work, the little girl would stretch her chin up to the counter & ask for whatever held her fancy that day. By the time she came back to the counter to check out, Adelaide would have a few little drawings ready for her; often a goodhearted attempt at whatever was asked of her & then two complementary (see: apologetic) doodles of flowers that came out much better.

Come the day when her father extended an invitation to visit his work, Adelaide was first tasked with creating complementary illustrations for women's pieces. Dresses, character portraits, sometimes baked goods... She passed her time comfortably & even was offered a formal position within the company by the time she was 18. Albeit for laughable pay, but she was young & nothing made her happier than keeping a collection of works she'd drawn for, if only a flower on a single page. It amazed her to see the differences in how she recalled drawing a piece & how the engravers ended up carving her lines out.

When war broke out two years later, her assignments became assisting full-page illustrators at work with their shading; they'd draw the lines & she'd hatch out the form. It was only a year later that she'd apply for nurse's training. Admittedly, she felt as though she could've been doing more; for as many pages of propaganda she'd help produce, often even being tasked to help with the engravings, she felt helpless. With loose morals, she easily had documentation forged to say she would be 25 by the following month, the minimum age for nurses. By no means did she fool anyone, but she was accepted to a hospital close to home nonetheless.

In those years, her idle expression was that of pleasant mirth. Having spent her life doodling for children & living comfortably, for those who've lived through worse since the war, the sight of her was one for sore eyes. A wide-eyed, rosy girl that carried out her training well? Within three years, she'd been recommended to a base station in the Western Front. Her mother was the first to hear the news, as she didn't have much of a social life within the hospital. She was kind enough with the other nurses but, again, when something came easily to her, it sometimes didn't for others &, again, it frustrated her, so she kept her distance. Not to mention, she was still only a girl at heart back then; the only difference between her schooling & hospital days was the uniform she wore; she still bounded home for a warm meal all the same, if only with a more controlled step as she grew older.

In spite of the scolding that came with it, Adelaide would often slip into her mother's bed after particularly grueling shifts. In doing this, it's like she's still a schoolgirl, coming home from a lackluster exam or a day of light teasing; all her worries wash away & her morning comes as it always does, leaving her refreshed & able to take on the day ahead. She'd never speak of the occasional horrors she saw, but it seemed her mother understood without it being said; mothers always did, she supposed.

Upon deployment, this could no longer be the case. For the first time, Adelaide was alone. It first settled in one particularly gruesome night, a couple weeks in. After doting on a young boy with an awful blow to his abdomen, providing company & listening of his plans after the war, all to step out into the breakroom in tears later that afternoon, when his hand relaxed for a final time in hers. There was an unspoken rule among the nurses to stifle oneself, so her tears came in silent, gasping breaths. It had all become too much for her, too many weeks of choked sobs. Letters were nice, but there truly was no home to return to that night. Compounded that with her useless mind cementing that boy earlier died before a stranger, far from home.

By the end of her fifth month, she'd found a routine. It was aided by a particular postman, who'd frequent the hospital during deliveries. Youth she was, the sight of him filled her with butterflies. It wasn't long before their love story played out & she wound up late. That month, she received word of her mother's passing & applied to take leave from her post almost immediately, leaving him none the wiser. Their pregnancy, her mother... At the time, it was a feat to even repeat aloud the news to her station's manager. Sometimes she wonders what became of her love.

Sometimes she wonders what might've become of her life had she never left home. Looking back, she's not proud of the naivety of her younger years; she's grown quite proud of her self-sufficiency, but... she does wonder. The immediate week back, the guilt overcame her. By the end of the week, she'd become "sick" again. This time, of course, her body had taken an awful toll. Chills, expulsions, but she soon enough make a well-enough recovery. Now without mother or child to come, she felt truly alone & the reality sent her mind into a dark haze.

In her time back, she'd attempted to return to work at the publishing house. It seemed that her change in demeanor was too great &, as a result of recent news, was a bit too unsettled. She was let off. The next couple of years were spent idling, taking up odd jobs wherever her whim guided her. Particularly, she developed an interest in letter writing for patients at the hospital she had once volunteered at. As always, she'd offer little doodles of whatever they requested.

In 1922, Lockheed finds her.

Her background as a nurse, combined with her extraordinary patience, allowed her to help the girl adjust to life at Lockheed.

last words
Oddity
True Aim

The ability to never miss. Blindfolded, handicapped, she can perfectly place whatever her will desires. Truthfully, Adelaide doesn't realize she's developed this skill since coming to Lockheed. In her daily life, it often goes unnoticed. Her ability to sew in absolutely straight lines, to place her pencil with otherworldly precision... the result of years of practice, surely. Of course, it's not often that she's throwing things, is it?

extras
1.
Back as an illustrator, her drawings were... cute. Certainly an attempt at realism, but often landed into simple doodles. Nowadays, though she's able to render things near perfectly from real life... her creativity's gone; there's no more whimsy to her art. It's a cold still of reality.

2.
Sometimes, she dreams an alternate reality where she comes home to find her mother ill. Despite her best efforts, her beloved mother still passes but, at least this time, its in Adelaide's arms within the week of coming home. These dreams comes to her vividly; she's able to kiss her mother's forehead & thank her. She thanks her for waiting.
The mornings after that dream often go slowly. The dream's reoccurred so often that, even to this day, sometimes she'll wake up mistaking it for a memory; those days are the easiest to manage.

Overview
codename
SERAPH

A jaded, ex-golden boy. It wasn't too long ago that his image looped on holoboards across Andlang, reciting messages of hope from FSF TERESA's angel. The fortress' morale campaign videos eventually reaching the rest of Andlang. Beyond, if licensing allowed. Now, nothing but a memory since the uprising.
Physical Identifiers
A man of average stature, standing at 5'10". His ID pictures a younger man with his same blond hair & mismatched eyes, but with a chin held high & soft expression. These days, it's a half-lidded, lopsided grin & a slouch. Though he performs well enough in combat, there's a gauntness about him that he deliberately hides away in standard issue body armor, even off-duty.
Personality
An auxiliary unit often rotated through teams, Angel's teams are often debriefed of a recent accident of his & authorized to restrain him whenever necessary. He supposes he's always lived on a leash, but it's only now that he sees it. These days, he's less an angel & more a caged bird - a tool. An expensive one at that. Before his accident, he was a tolerant, earnest soldier with an interest of putting forth his best foot. Assignment after assignment, that performance slips more & more & he lets it.

One to leave caution to the wind, easily seduced by whims. He speaks with little reservation in the interest of his own amusement, though his outward apathy hardly shows it. There's nothing more entertaining than undoing the strait-lace of rigid teams through agitation or coquetry. It's not like he'll see them again, after all. If he does, they've been mixed & matched into other quilted teams who've also suffered losses. There's nothing to laugh at on the frontlines, so he likes to humor himself outside of them whenever he can.

As his only real hold over it, he tends to make light of his downfall. It's not often, as most could care less, but for the few that outwardly recognize him, he enjoys that drop in their face when he shatters expectations. In the past, he entertained them, exuding an air of that noble angel of hope on soda cans. Now, he'll chug one & blow eructed air at them for asking.

Subject to mania, without external stimuli to stir him, Angel can also be a quiet presence. Before calamity, he'd always been a perceptive man of introspection. It was his rearing as a politician's son that endowed him with a sharp mind for justice & egalitarianism; that mind, whose views tended to oppose its creator's, driving a rift between the two; that rift, instilled in Angel the need for approval, one which persists even today in self-image awareness. Trust a son to cast his father's shadow.

He leaves his heart on the battlefield, fueled by his ardor for duty. For as long as he's been a soldier, that's always been the case but, these days... there's a venom to it. He's always been a hothead when it came to his views, as he's prone to frustration & fighting against opposition, but he's always had the heart to dampen it. That's gone now or at least his patience to do so is. He's intolerant of his teammates errors, while painfully aware of his own; missions with him are not without cynical quips on the light side & outright verbal abuse on the heavier. One who, recently, has realized his outbursts have little repercussion. He could scream a teammate's head off & only get reassigned the following day; for as much of a hazard as he is, he gets results.

Angel suffers a consistent barrage of disembodied voices while conscious, characteristic of Echoes ever since the sky fell. They don't speak suggestions to him, though he'll say they do to get a reaction, but rather create a constant dissonance within his head. Thousands of echoes of the past haunting his every waking moment with him as their only audience. These voices tangle with his own thoughts, rendering him reliable on only what he sees. Though, even then, a delusional parasitosis haunts his vision; an irrational delusion of WISPs crawling out of his skin, characterized by formication & him itching at these tactile hallucinations.

At night is when his broken psyche really announces itself as he possesses sundown syndrome, or an increased sensitivity to confusion & anxiety in the late afternoon, lasting well into the night. In reaction, he becomes easily aggressed & intolerant of direction, pacing or wandering to soothe his own self. It's at these times that, if he's on base, he'll overwhelm himself with simulations at those odd hours of a given day to get out of his own head. If you'd ask him, it's only training.

There's no shortage of gossip pertaining to the corruption of TERESA's angel. Though, in this regard, it's less a corruption but more a recent reality that there'd never been a "good" Echo; he'd just always bothered to mask his symptoms.
Background
EARLY LIFE

Son of a single father, born into a family of politicians, Angel's upbringing was a more-than-comfortable one. His extended family's combined wealth & investment ventures within Lex Sanitas made them easily one of the richest within Neo-CDMX. When SIN first begun mass production, the Salvatierras were one of the first to sponsor this effort. As a result, Angel & his father were also of the first recipients of SIN; Angel being one of the youngest, still only a child at the time. His father campaigned for the accessibility of SIN within Neo-CDMX, promising government collaboration for subsidized SIN healthcare. At the time, these efforts were well-received.

Youngest of the family, Angel's childhood memories are filled with him sitting out of family gatherings, preferring to sprawl across a couch too big for him, playing handheld games while the adults talked politics. When he was old enough to begin understanding, he'd sit in on these conversations &, as kids often do, grew to be the little contrarian within the family. He was cute back then, enough to be offhandedly interviewed during one of his father's public events. When he was expected to say something cute as a candidate's child, Angel instead recalled the unethical sourcing of nanity manufacture. Never again. After that day, he was forbidden from public speaking. At least, during his father's events. On his own, he gained some local popularity as an environmental advocate during his teenage years. These views were popular among Neo-CDMX's youths & his rallies were always under his family's protection, due to their influence. As much of a sore point his public views were for the family & his father, he was always looked after.

SHATTERED HEAVENS

Still, no amount of power, money, or influence could've prevented what Angel saw the day the world shattered. To this day, it haunts his subconscious. He was 18 then.

He'd been out the entire day after a falling out with his father that morning. Angel, always the prodigal son, had come home only for dinner. Angel had been at the table, mindlessly flipping through flashcards, with his father in the kitchen when the rumbling first began. Any device with a holoscreen gave notice of a tremor & at the warning, they'd taken shelter under the table. There'd been no tremor, just a deep sound from the floorboards.

It was odd, he remembered. Of the exact moment, Angel had no recollection, just a skipping sequence of memory that played out of order. In one, he watched his father's proportions stretch by the smallest margin. In another, he sees his father's mouth saying something that doesn't reach his ears. In others, there's countless details of the single instant prior that play different each time in his recollection. All before a spurt of red consumes his vision & the rest plays out as it did in reality. His ears had popped at the sound. He'd seen the whole thing & could only sit in horror for a moment, blinking at the sudden empty space before him. A warmth soaked him initially - soaked the walls & the underside of the table he occupied - before cooling to a haunting chill. As the space was small, he'd been holding onto his father's arm when the rumbling began. Angel had looked down in horror when he then realized that was still true.

To this day, he can recall that morning's argument. Sometimes, he dreams of an alternate reality where he comes home earlier. Regardless of how many times he's dreamed it, the heavens & his father still shatter but, at least this time, he's apologized for the morning & helped out with dinner. Things of the like. These dreams comes to him vividly; he's able to hug his father prior.
The mornings after that dream often go slowly. The dream's reoccurred so often that, even to this day, sometimes he'll wake up mistaking it for a memory; those days are the easiest to manage.

AFTERMATH

In the immediate weeks that followed, outrage broke out against the government who'd distributed SIN & Lex Sanitas for conceiving the idea. What remained of Neo-CDMX's politicians were executed in blind retribution. In passing, Angel overheard a remaining news outlet cover the execution of an aunt who he'd known to have been an executive within Lex. He watched her death in the street be streamed on a flickering holoboard.

Angel's surname came with unease, but forgiven for his youth. With little else to turn to, he joined a refuge community that later would become FSF TERESA. Before that, he'd become one of the many community leaders within what remained of Neo-CDMX. As there was little interest in trusting an 18 year-old to handle public relations, he did what he could elsewhere & led excavation efforts of nearby Megaliths. Any able-bodied person that could helped to gather this material that'd later be sold to neighboring communities for resources. It wasn't long before the megacorporation Lex Sanitas took notice. Funds were steadily funneled into their community. With this shift, Angel took up arms with the local militia which had formed to, initially, control civilian uprisings, but now to keep Lex Sanitas' representatives in check.

CORRUPTANTS

With the corruptants who appeared a year or two later, came Lex Sanitas & their endeavor to establish FSF TERESA as a base to fend off these creatures. Their militia had little success in fending them (or Lex Sanitas) off themselves, so it was formally converted to an RCL division &, in their urgency to mobilize, Angel's militia was approved for Metaphasium. It was a little exciting, he remembered; this sentiment that they'd become soldiers for the community brought a light air within the group. In their time together since Shattered Heavens, Angel had grown close to his squad & couldn't help but share their sentiment.

The process failed, initially.

For Angel, this simply meant a rescheduling. He'd felt relatively fine after the first failure, but was kept in quarantine until his procedure date & even for a couple days after a succesful Metaphasium process. It was a poor intern that came into his dorm one day to update him on his squad's status.

Again, it was odd, he remembered. Of the exact moment, Angel again couldn't remember exactly what he'd heard. Something about SIN, about his being an Inherent, how the others couldn't handle some crystal, how there'd be a ceremony held later that week. The words said were lost on him, but the meaning couldn't be clearer. In his rage, a white fragment of something shot toward the kid. They couldn't have been much older than himself, but Angel couldn't forget how scared they'd looked; it was like looking at a child who'd seen a ghost.

As instantly as the thought to bring harm to the intern came, so did regret. A white wall constructed itself before the intern to block the perceived projectile. Before Angel could make any sense of what'd happened, a sting struck him at the neck.

A NEW LIFE

It was a week later that he woke up. He was given a debrief on his situation & the incident, in simple terms: his friends had passed away during the process. He'd shot one & then a mass of WISP at the intern. (He later bought the kid a protein bar as an apology.) That was all there was to say, they'd told him. Alongside him sat Resonators like him. His new team, he was told, but not to get too attached.

The particular RCL branch in TERESA carried out a rotation system when it came to the few Inherent Resonators they had; they believed that, if they never needlessly attached themselves to their teammates, they'd never overexert themselves to the point of risking Dissonance. This particular phenomenon startled Angel.

His family had already suffered enough of a fate as a result of SIN. They endorsed what they believed would help the people of Neo-CDMX & it backfired. Understanding this, Angel felt an obligation to not repeat the past. One, to not put anyone in danger of another calamity brought upon by SIN. Two, in memory of his family. Salvatierra had brought enough perceived tragedy; he did not want to add to the stigma that his name brought.

Without so much as a chance to mourn the loss of the single closest thing he'd had to a family since the cataclysm, he was deployed with a new squadron. So began the rest of his life. A life of overscheduled missions, of persistent voices of lost comrades, & of endured smiles. Angel became the model Echo, obedient & self-controlled. Whatever asked, he did. Whenever called to duty, he answered, fatigue be damned. As a result of his frequency in appearing on missions & his knack for public image, he began something of a popular figure within his sanctum. A people's soldier. A redeemed Salvatierra. The angel of TERESA. A good Echo.

THE ACCIDENT

Until he wasn't.
Combat
Primary Armament | Empyrean's Edge
A polearm weapon with a sharp head, embedded with KIRT technology. Modified for Machine Savant use, capable of withstanding sudden self-inflicted attachments of WISPs to aid in combat, ranging from creating a mallet of WISP, lengthening the head for more range, or increasing its lacerating ability through the WISPs' power.

Equip 1 | Full-body Active LEX Performance Suit, Series 6
 Undergone countless user-specific alterations over the years. A standard-issue powered exoskeleton suit for military use, sponsored by megacorp Lex Sanitas & characterized by its green light. Lightweight in nature, allowing for full range of movement at the cost of protection. Can withstand reasonable mission-typical damage, its durability increasing with every series - Angel's being the second-most recent. Capable of propulsion in any given direction twice an hour.

Equip 2 | LEX Shield Tetrix Attachment
 A set of four KIRT cybernetic appendages. When commanded, emit or retract an energy shield from each. Capable of reliably sustaining medium damage; for heavier damage or impact, they require overnight recharge. The shields are flexible in nature, able to concave in defense or swat away small enemies.

Hand-sized attachments towards the upper back of Angel's exosuits, each with the appearance of a little wing, connecting to the response network built within. Active, the energy shields emitted have a wingspan of 10'. Built of overlapping feather-like hard energy to construct two sets of wings at the user's back, though incapable of flight. As a result of their connection to the LEX suit, the shields emitted glow green. Angel doesn't even like green.

Skill Flair
 Angel is a quick damage dealer who attacks in heavy-hitting bursts.

As a result of his fragility, he'll stay out of the fray either by use of cover or high ground above the field until he sees an opening. When he does, he'll plunge in with great velocity & slash through enemies. He'll drop in on an enemy, using his shields to increase his cross-sectional area & slow his descent, if necessary, at the cost of losing out on initial burst damage. His suit's propulsion is often used to disengage.

When it comes to his weapon, he's able to throw it & command WISP to recall it for him.

CODEBREAKER | CIELOS DESTROZADOS
Take me home.

The theoretical manifestation of Angel's desire to return to a life before calamity. In a last ditch effort, Angel overwhelms his Resonance by summoning all WISP in a given radius & commands them to circle a given mass of enemies. A dome is constructed to encase them, with visions of the sky, the clouds, & heavens above reflected across its rippling structure. Contained in this mass, the enemies are subjected to a deep rumbling of latent WISP below the earth that can be felt even beyond. Then, in an instant, everything shatters. The burst of Resonance-powered energy echoes the disembodied voices of Angel's mind - their agony, joy & relief all in dissonance.

As it's only mimicry of Shattered Heavens, the reality is that particles are at such a high-energy that a lacerating storm is devastating whatever's within the dome. The aftermath of this manifestation recreates a similar scene of Angel's youth, painting the surrounding area in spilled gore.

PLAYLIST


SAMPLE
There was her answer.


First wrinkled by twitching hand during conversation & then snaffled snugly, yes, she supposed that was what he'd thought of it. A souvenir, how one pockets a particularly smooth stone found during an outing. A curious oddity of nature to be plucked from the earth & set on the windowsill of a bedroom. That was all. Lamely, she could only think, with eyes lightly fixed at his breast, I drew that. Now it lay soiled, smudged, creased, & stowed like a receipt. Idly, having devoted herself as a children's maid for the last three months, she thought, That'll stain. He'd have to clean that pocket later. Or she, if she saw it in the laundry later.

Else what, she had mumbled with sharp tongue in response to something Makoto had said, but now she knew. As if she'd been caught passing notes in class, Mr. Madiyarov was scolding her & she suddenly felt very small, as if she'd shrank beyond her own perception. Without children around, there was an odd reality to her appearance in that moment. The wickedness that fueled the frills of her sleeves & apron deflated, her stillness allowed them to lay flatly onto her pointed frame, pronouncing a dress that now felt ill-fitted. It draped much too loosely on her body, swallowing her as if she'd stood inside it on a clothesline, her pointed shoulders as the pins it hung by. When one thought caretaker, round, kind features tended to come to mind. Adelaide was none of this.

She felt too small. This room was too big. Makoto was too close. And now he offered her money. The sight, initially stoked a comfortable flame within her. It dissipated, thought, at the memory it conjured.
For a long moment or two, she could only hold her tongue at the sight of the pounds. It held her full attention, like her teacher really had called her out into the hall. There were three, she'd noticed. Without holding them, that's how many could be seen & she was rather sure of it. By reflex of her past, her wrist lurched up from her side until her mind caught on & stifled the motion. Just as quickly, she looked at her own hand, seemingly insulted by its ability to act without her knowledge.

This much was enough to put her household at ease, she had noted. Her brows gave gentle rise at this. In finding work & board under Lockheed, money hadn't crossed her mind once. Still, she rationed the body never forgot. She'd never lived uncomfortably, her mother made sure, but children always knew & Adelaide had been no exception. Her mother was clever in her storytelling, but no amount of imagination could warm a little girl on cold nights.

Like a little girl, Adelaide too daydreamed then; it was only a moment, but the image of her young mother counting banknotes on the kitchen table was enough for Adelaide to bite her lip at it. It'd been a long time that she thought of a day that wasn't tomorrow; as a realist, one always tends to forget themselves in the everyday. It was impractical to think of the past, she'd come to learn over the years. Particularly impractical at evening time. When hours passed as minutes & morning came ceaselessly, day after day. To wake was a bottle-ache with no beer. Apart from her temper, tardiness tended to be what landed her in fresh air. Here with no commute, with strict routine, & with children expecting her; it was easy to wake up. So when Makoto's offer of money brought forth memory of her mother, Adelaide too faltered as he had earlier.
Her lips parted as if to speak - to remedy this all, to return their dynamic to a time before the ink spill - but to lift her tongue at that moment then felt like a gargantuan task that she couldn't manage. There was nothing to say. Too much had been said already. If she spoke now, she'd surely warble, a clenched throat warned her. Even if by a gesture that she'd seen actors take acted offense towards in movies - that perhaps she should too - Makoto had apologized. His wrong, in her mind, was cleared, but here she was: with inconvenient memories, bothering this near-stranger, in a room too big, Makoto too close. A pit welled in her empty stomach, reminding her afternoon tea was soon. All this & she'd still not finished cleaned. The dust that had fascinated her earlier now reminded her only of her incompetence.

All this time, a heat rose to her cheeks, threatening towards her eyes. After the long moment or two, in spite of her interest of responding properly, Adelaide could only wonder miserably, "What am I going to do with this?"

As promised, her voice wavered. Involuntarily, she blinked & down split the warmth. Simultaneous in both eyes, only a single tear in each. Oh, for fuck's sake, Adelaide gave an inward huff & wiped irritably at one cheek. In quick motion, she now gently held the book to her chest, having pushed back the leaflets offered.

"Never mind," came from her, spiritless. Her words were short & small, "That's quite alright."

ไบ•ๆตฆๆ˜‚่ผ
"and many, many words are expressed by a dogโ€™s eyes."​
height | 183 cm (6'0")
hair | blond.
straight & dense, despite curling ends. overgrown sides & fringe that falls over his eyes; occasionally pushed back & parted fashionably.
eyes | light brown/amber.
build | heavy-boned. sturdy, broad-shouldered, & muscular. physique shrouded in oversized tops; tendency to dress light.
distinguishing features | shedding, pierced ears, & one mole just below his lip.
zodiac features | akita inu.
under stress, thick & pointed dog's ears poke out from his crown, likely pinned back from stress. a double-coated, curled-over tail flops out in an effort to cower between his legs. his nails' tips sharpen to a dull, dark point & his canines grow out; the brown of his eyes darken.
personality | his face at rest is one with an idle grin about it, as though he were stuck squinting at the sun. his voice & word choice is one with an easiness about it, albeit one seldom heard. in conversation, he'd rather listen; though, perhaps watching being more appropriate โ€” his most common interaction is one to call him from a daydream; it's not uncommon for his gaze to drift toward the abyss. if there were one word to describe him, it's nonchalant: equable in the best ways; apathetic in the worst. one to watch backs, but miss eyes in favor for clouds.
as it's easy to excuse that grin as one for good weather, it's on particularly overcast days that he's best seen. in passing, he's unlikely to be caught alone as he's never often far from a crowd. caught alone, he's a habit of pacing or seemingly generally anxious. for as much interest he has in the presence of others, he's never too attached; if ever situationally appropriate, he'd best prefer keeping a couple paces ahead or behind of company. he finds little pleasure in engagement, preferring opportunity to people watch. communication is his poorest regard, with his riches being in action.
as characteristic of man's best friend, he's honest to a fault & easily swayed by affection. afflicted by nausea at the thought of deceit. similarly, though it's rare for his alignment to make itself apparent, he's drawn to it like a magnet โ€” loyal. altruism & investment in others comes easily to him; a great feat it'd be for him to consider himself, as he'd rather volunteer his person for someone else's sake. indecision & irresolution plagues him, though masked by his airiness. with him, it's easy to feel at ease as all he asks for is one's presence. that said, he's not the most affectionate & would prefer his distance. to attain this, it's not above him to bite or push buttons as needed. with investment, comes observation; the absurdity of what impassions others does tend to amuse him.
early childhood | born only son to split parents, expedited by the visit of god's servants. left to single father whose occupation then bore no means to support a toddler; that father a drifter who bunkered down for the sake of a child he couldn't hold.
his earliest years were a great stretch of time where the curse greatly disturbed him. what fragmented memory he has of a family besides his father is blurred by snout & muffled by whining. without function to understand or form meaningful memory then, all he knew was the great absence of a mother by his own doing.
life with that father was pleasant, save for school. by then, he'd outgrown his reluctance to transform, if only at home. instead, he'd now come home to lunge toward his father's arms every so often after school.
the thing was this: his father made no effort to reveal his son's host status. in turn, kลki took it upon himself to preserve that sanctity. to keep to himself was a great effort exerted by him at that time; a little boy took only so much.
at seven, he'd slip up once at school & never more. word had gotten out. another kid caught kลki's form from behind & collapsed onto a shivering, flaxen pup who'd squealed from impact.
the incident had nearly been contained to his class, were it not for the gossip that'd trickled into the months that followed. try as staff may, it took press only following home the few blond students for them to one afternoon knock on kลki's door for an interview.
he'd been alone when he answered, as his father was out for some errand โ€” intentional, on the press' behalf. nausea came first, following by stress that flooded the apartment's hallway in the form of golden clouds, caused by the simple question of there being a dog in class & left another shivering, golden pup in its wake. the reporter crew, far from saint & monsters, left his exact name out of reports โ€” leaving it at: "dog zodiac's host identified in hokkaido prefecture."
of course, this did little to deter solicitors that'd learned of him from the information sold by the press; offers of all kinds came to their doorstep โ€” talk show invitations, sponsorships, modeling gigs, commercial appearances.
it grew to a point where even kลki's father was experiencing harassment at work. it was then that the countdown towards kลki's thirteenth birthday began & it was then the latter offer attracted the attention of a kid often attached to the tv. a pathway into child acting had been paved for the pup.
countdown toward 13 | exactly when still eludes kลki, but there'd been a shift in his father's demeanor toward his curse. before everything, he'd come home bounding into his father arms & now, after a couple shoots, he'd done the same. this time, instead only to be scolded & shrugged aside.
by the time koki had gotten into his double digits, his life had become this: morning shoots, supplementary schooling, practice, & home. acting sustained their family for a good long while. enough so that when kลki left, his father's necessities would have been taken cared of for a year or two. perhaps back home, even more.
by then, they'd moved to shibuya to suit koki's career. back home, koki had always been something of a downer in his persistent effort to conceal his nature; now out, his nature rivaled the sun. an exuberance carried his career's opportunities, as he often got along well with cast & crew.
by now, his father had fully shifted from parent to manager. their interactions now were through rearview mirror & affection seldom initiated by either party. life now was static. without warning, he'd lived the same year five times over when god's servants came knocking. he never did have his big break. still, for the first time in ages, his father tugged koki back for one final hug just at the doorway.
and he was off.
compound | in his first couple of months since joining the compound, he'd become spoiled from that final act of affection prior to his arrival.
it was around this time that he'd learn of the exception regarding his zodiac's neighbors & god โ€” finding proximity without consequence incredible. he had a reputation of seeking out his zodiac's neighbors & god. only a young boy then & growing touch-starved, he'd linger around whoever permitted him & hugged whichever of the three gave in โ€” even after the initial culture shock, he still hovered by those particular three in the hopes of an cashing in what was quickly growing to be a hug allowance.
a creature of habit, koki easily fell into a comfortable routine rather quickly. at the time, it was a mix of finally slowing down after years on nonstop work & an over-eagerness to find a home after being swept from his.
at the compound, offers for jobs still came in. with permission & heavy vigilance, he'd take them infrequently. without a manager, he'd get an opportunity about once or twice a year growing up. by the time he was in his last couple of years in high school, they'd dried off as a result of his detachment from the entertainment industry & his reluctance to accept; his school's attendance now threatening a repeated year.
life now | indecision disrupted the meaningful development of any one particular interest of him. he'd had instances of pursuing acting, music, art, academics, sports, & any other discipline that momentarily held his attention. as a result, he'd graduated with the sole plan & interest of employment. when he graduated, he forewent higher education in the interest of job hunting & came across a multitude of odd jobs that he familiarly bounced between.
currently, he's landed on one in particular where his father still works. he's never made attempt to speak to him, but he's stuck around regardless. he still lives at the compound with whoever else lingers, but used to have an apartment initially after turning 18. he's since returned after a rent increase.
thoughts on the curse's truth | though he'd rather not, he's adjusted to the growing permanence of dogs' features. on sleepless nights, he visualizes his life ahead & whatever troubles him at the time drifts away; there's little to concern oneself with without thumbs in three months' time.
already, a part of him has always felt as though his human experience thus far had been one on loan โ€” as though this life's never been his, rather someone else's whose vision he's had the opportunity of borrowing. when faced with spells & fate, who is he to argue what's been decided lifetimes ago? though, if asked, the truth is he longs for a future of his own. one where he's among others without feeling like a visitor. still, somewhere he knows that his feeling wouldn't go away with his curse โ€” it's for this reason that he doesn't lament his circumstance.
for as much of a bother it's been, koki believes his curse has been the easiest to bear โ€” to be the animal closest to man. of anyone, he believes his life ahead's been laid out the simplest. the same can't be said for the others. he won't scorn opposition toward fates โ€” maybe he would too, were he something else.

Backstory
Born to hypochondriac parents in the town of Floaroma, Raquel lived within her childhood room's walls. The world was one just outside her window, but out of reach as she had a habit of coughing fits. Being inside all day, she never got much of an opportunity to build up her constitution; sheโ€™d hang onto the arms of others when she walked & tended to dizzy easily. At the time, her parents were young professionals who would occasionally be out of the house. It was for this reason that her parents would wind up โ€œemployingโ€ a young Chansey to look after her.
With this new playmate, Raquel now hardly longed to go outside. Her world with Chanseyโ€”quickly nicknamed Ladyโ€”was one she had been wholly content with until that fateful day when sheโ€™d first see a live Pokรฉmon contest come on TV. It was then that, the next time Lady would care for her, Raquel felt a genuine longing to show off her friend whoโ€”in tucking her in at nightโ€”shone just as brilliantly as the Pokรฉmon sheโ€™d seen on TV.
Raquel wanted to show the world.
It was in this way that Raquel entered the world of Pokรฉmon coordination. In her teens, when her family had finally weened her off of a quarantined lifestyle, that sheโ€™d pursue entry into her hometownโ€™s local contest after a youth spent playing pretend with Chansey & later a Flabรฉbรฉ who sheโ€™d met just outside her windowโ€”one of the few local Pokรฉmon who didnโ€™t set off her allergies.
Her rise through coordination ranks was a steady one. She never was an outright star in the way that some competitors break into the general publicโ€™s eye, but sheโ€™s now made a name for herself as a veteran within the coordination community. Nowadays, especially, as sheโ€™s since slowed in competing to build up her online community. A staple influencer in the community: an online commentator, analyst, & reporter. When sheโ€™s not reporting on the latest happenings within the coordinator world, sheโ€™s posting lavish, sponsor-funded lifestyle content.
To this day, Raquel never did build up her strength. Whenever sheโ€™s out, she can always be seen with her Blissey at her side, acting escort.
At the moment, sheโ€™s on a sponsored trip to Eunoia. The company's logo depicts an Alolan Ninetales, so she's been sent with a loaned Alolan Vulpix to feature in her content. He scratched her in their first video together.
