[quote=@Compulsive86][hider= third time the charm?!] (Still no picture, I wish I had one!) [color=a187be]Quote[/color]: “I can hear you, I just don’t care.” [color=a187be]Name[/color]: Hisakawa Hisashi [color=a187be]Age[/color]: 14 December 18th 2003 [color=a187be]Gender[/color]: Boy [color=a187be]Orientation[/color]: Homoromantic, asexual [color=a187be] Social Class:[/color] Middle class [color=a187be] Defining Hobby:[/color] Baking O[color=a187be]ccupation:[/color] None [color=a187be]Physical Description:[/color] Hisashi stands a well off height of five reet and six inches, making him a tad bit taller than most of his peers. He is on the skinny side for his height at roughly 68.04kg (150lb). His hair color is a light lavender that at its longest reaches the very bottom of his shoulder blades; this is because he dislikes getting his haircut. His hair texture is also abnormal as it is somewhat fluffier and a bit courser than most. His bangs are somewhat long and swept to the right side of his face. We should assume that he is of mixed race not only because of his hair but because his eyes are a light blue instead of the usual brown. However his eye shape still resembles that of an Eastern Asian. His body is lanky with unruly limbs that even people with advanced fine motor skill would find hard to control. His face is an oval shape with a slightly pointy chin. Finally, despite having qualms about strangers being near him he got his ears pierced over the school year. He will however, take them out during the school day, putting them back on when he gets home. [color=a187be]Personality Traits:[/color] When you think of Hisashi think of a cat. He appears aloof and uncaring most of the time because honestly, he has better things to think about then the world around him. He prefers his own inner world then the outside one. His head is always constantly thinking of millions of different things so he finds hard to communicate; he also appears to lack empathy and can come off as rather rude due to missing social cues. However, don’t let this stop you from trying to get close, deep down Hisashi is extremely loyal towards those he loves and is extremely passionate. He may not know how express his deep love for people and he may not know what love exactly is but he tries to show it the best he can in his own awkward way. His blunt attitude has a way of keeping people calm and putting things in a different perspective. He is also much more tolerant then it would first appear; taking in people’s differences with ease and not expecting them to change or be what society deems as “normal”.

She was a lesbian but because she felt like she had a duty to her parents she married a man and gave birth to Hisashi and the oldest of his sisters Natsumi (two year difference). However when her husband found out she was a lesbian he demanded a divorce. His mother was devastated and tried in vain to save the marriage in vain so her parents would not be upset. It didn’t work however and since the divorce (and an unlikely coming out) Dr. Hisakawa has not spoken to her family. She could’ve become depressed about her situation as a single mother with no connections but around that time she met Hinta Sato, another singler mother with two little girls, Suzu and Umeko (four and six year difference). Together they decided to go against the norms and not care about what society had to think of them and their unorthodox family or how they came to be. They keep it quiet though, not being open about their relationship or how it came to be in order to avoid contempt from their community for the sake of their children and their jobs. Hisashi though, doesn’t fully realize that being two divorced women in a relationship is weird. He is very open about his mother and mama and the “bastards that divorced them” a thing that embrasses his mother to no end and cracks mama Hinta up. His younger sisters on the other hand, understand more about the situation that Hisashi do and are more quiet and subdued about their at home life. They are even known to get mad at Hisashi if he brings it up outside of the house. In general though, while his family is rather reserved and illusive, inside their circle is a very loving and accepting family. Hisashi takes care of his younger sibling with everything he has and loves even more. His siblings are loud and joyful, always pulling him into their games and being as accepting of him as you can expect of little girls. His mother works often but always has time to take care of her children when they need her; Hisashi relates to her a lot because they share similar problems with expressing themselves in positive ways. Mama Hinta though, is Hisashi’s favorite family member; she is kind and sweet and always seems to know what to do when Hisashi is upset. She was the one who got to get diagnosed when he was ten and she was the one who advocated for him to get both Occupational and normal therapy. She is definitely the ideal “mother hen” while his mother is more distant. [color=a187be]Personal Motivation:[/color] When Hisashi grows up he plans to go to France to study pastry, after that he will set up a cafe back in Japan,where he can spend the rest of his days exploring new recipes.His highschool goals however, are much simpler. He wants to learn how to be independent from his family before he leaves them in four years. [color=a187be]Miscellaneous:[/color] (Deep breath) At the age of ten Hisashi was diagnosed with High Functioning Autism Disorder. This means that he struggle with both comprehending and expressing his own emotions and understanding and responding to others. He cannot read facial expressions,r translate body language, or comprehend tone or pitch and how they can change the meanings of words. People may also find it hard to read his emotions as he lacks most facial expressions and has little to no tone or pitch. He lacks inborn social skills that most adults and people his age and has a hard time maintaining or starting a conversation. He seems to lack empathy but this is far from the truth if you get to know him; he just doesn’t get it a lot of the time and that can come off as rude or apathetic,. He has “special interests” which is basically a subject that he obsesses over and outside of those he knows or cares about little else. (these interest are baking, anime, and rock music). Don’t expect him to look you in the eye as he hates doing it and will only do it when absolutely necessary. His fine and sometimes gross motor skills are not as developed as most, causing him to struggle with some basic tasks like handwriting, buttons, and tying shoes. Finally, let it be known that if too overwhelmed and upset he will have a meltdown/panic attack. Sensory processing disorder is a diagnosis that is typical of someone with an Autism Spectrum Disorder. In general it means that Hisashi has heightened sensitivity towards things like touch, texture, sound, and light. For him personally, sound and light are his biggest struggles. This is why he always carries around sunglasses and noise cancelling headphones. [color=a187be]Relationships: [/color] No romantic relationships as of yet (open to one) but Hisashi is very close to his mother’s partner Hinta who he calls “Mama Hinta” while he calls his biological mother “mother” [color=a187be]Belongings & Inventory:[/color] Hisashi always has noise canceling headphones around his neck and has sunglasses in his pocket at all times. [/hider] [/quote] We already have a lot of characters with illness or illness-related backstories, so I'm not really sure how commonplace we want these things to be present among the cast. Your write-up of the personality is admittedly improved, but the backstory seems a little messy. There's also a lot of awkward phrases and typographic errors and that's without considering the fact you are unable to format the sheet – though I will reassure you that said formatting isn't a “accept or reject” situation. I will have to see what Sola thinks about the character before I make a final decision.
