[color=00aeef][u][b]Age[/b][/u][/color] 🍱 Eighteen. [color=00aeef][u][b]Gender[/b][/u][/color] 🍱 Male. [color=00aeef][u][b]Ethnicity[/b][/u][/color] 🍱 Spanish. 🍱 Japanese, (Adopted). [color=00aeef][u][b]Occupation[/b][/u][/color] 🍱 Sushi Chef, Trainee. 🍱 Works at his father's restaurant. 🍱 Culinary student. [color=00aeef][u][b]Sexuality[/b][/u][/color] 🍱 Homosexual. [color=00aeef][u][b]Relationship Status[/b][/u][/color] 🍱 Single. [color=00aeef][u][b]Zodiac Sign[/b][/u][/color] 🍱 Leo. [color=00aeef][u][b]Height[/b][/u][/color] 🍱 5'4". [color=00aeef][u][b]Weight[/b][/u][/color] 🍱 60lbs. [center][img]https://i.imgur.com/sUjrtQw.png[/img][/center] [color=00aeef][u][b]Personality[/b][/u][/color] 🍱 Layne is quite the sweet boy. 🍱 Others would consider him kindhearted. 🍱 He is most certainly relaxed. 🍱 In tandem with this, Layne is notably laid back. 🍱 He is, however, adequately withdrawn. 🍱 This has naturally led to him growing reserved. 🍱 Despite his quiet and introverted personality, Layne is very fun-loving. 🍱 Another positive feature to check off, would be his patience. 🍱 Additionally, Layne is very cuddly, especially with animals. 🍱 Equally so, those who know this boy would use the word affectionate to describe him. 🍱 Though, he is quite shy, which would be foolish to dismiss. 🍱 Due to this, he is somewhat anxious. 🍱 If anyone has seen him cook or draw, they'd know that Layne is incredibly stubborn. 🍱 Layne blames corny chick flix, but he is a hopeless romantic. 🍱 Quite the dreamer, indeed. 🍱 A feature Layne would admit is his greatest strength is his impressive creativity. 🍱 This clearly dips into being expressive, (in his food and drawings). 🍱 With all of this in mind, Layne appears somewhat boring on the surface. 🍱 While he has very few friends, they can attest to the fact that Layne is incredibly loyal. 🍱 Willing to see an issue from various perspectives, he is indeed rather broad-minded. 🍱 Layne attempts to be objective, as often as possible. 🍱 He avoids judging others. 🍱 He does, however, judge himself a tad too harshly. 🍱 Like a cat, Layne is incredibly curious. 🍱 He is very eager to learn, especially from his elders. 🍱 At times, Layne can be rather bad at maintaining contact with others due to his reserved nature. 🍱 However, when confronted on the issue, he always apologizes for the transgression. [center][img]https://i.imgur.com/ITveyve.png[/img][/center] [color=00aeef][u][b]Appearance[/b][/u][/color] 🍱 Layne is rather tiny. 🍱 Though eighteen years old, Layne is prompted to present his ID card wherever he goes. 🍱 It is understandable, considering a very youthful appearance. 🍱 Starting from the top, Layne has a thick mop of messy black hair on his head. 🍱 He maintains a rather unblemished face some would consider handsome, but most would consider cute. 🍱 Of course, his 'resting bitch face' might take a few points off. 🍱 If one was to see Layne without clothes, his body would reveal a scrawny shape, indeed. 🍱 He has no muscles to speak of, whatsoever. 🍱 Layne's skin is, due to his Hispanic origin, bronze colored and tanned. 🍱 If one was to take his shirt off, Layne's ribs would be clearly visible, and a keen eye would be able to count each individual rib. 🍱 This is generally not considered attractive. 🍱 Each of Layne's digits is slender and could be considered dainty. 🍱 Speaking of dainty, Layne appears rather androgynous and is sometimes mistaken for a girl. 🍱 Considering his occupation as a chef, Layne has no polish on his nails but maintains them and keeps them short. 🍱 If one was to touch his hands, softness would be the first thing that comes to mind. 🍱 They would also reveal a distinct lack of manual labor. 🍱 His voice, much like his body, is quite androgynous and it can be difficult to place his gender. 🍱 He speaks quietly and is often asked to repeat himself. 🍱 Having grown up speaking two languages daily, Layne has no distinct accent. 🍱 Some people might consider Layne's voice somewhat melodic, but it is nothing he'd be willing to confirm. 🍱 Layne tends to wear vanilla scented perfume. 🍱 Outside of work, Layne enjoys expressing himself in clothing. 🍱 On warmer days, he is often seen in a pair of cargo pants, a long vest, and a tank top. 🍱 It is common to see a series of bracelets on his forearms, all of which are brown, black, and beige. 🍱 Working in tandem with his olive skin, Layne tends towards dark green, black, and brown. 🍱 His choice of footwear is exclusively ankle-high converse shoes, black with white tips. 🍱 On colder days, Layne wears thin, long-sleeved shirts beneath his vests, but retains his fashion choice. 🍱 Sweaters make themselves known when Layne feels lazy. 🍱 At work, Layne wears a black chef's coat, which swallows his small body. 🍱 The coat has red accents, and buttons, with 'Shinagi Sushi' stitched onto the chest with red thread. 🍱 To prevent his hair from intruding, Layne hides it beneath a black chef's cap. [center][img]https://i.imgur.com/ITveyve.png[/img][/center] [color=00aeef][u][b]Biography[/b][/u][/color] 🍱 Layne is the second son, and first adopted child, of the Shinagi household. 🍱 Throughout his life, Layne had known an ordinary, common upbringing. 🍱 His love for food made itself clear quite early, in the same way that it does for most. 🍱 Layne helped his father cook since a young age, and maintained that his love for cooking stretched further than simply lunch and dinner. 🍱 After graduating high school, Layne immediately applied to culinary school. 🍱 In regards to his family, Layne has always gotten along with his siblings, but it would be a lie to claim that he constantly felt like a part of the group. 🍱 Layne is Hispanic by blood, which is clearly visible, especially in comparison to his blatantly Japanese family. 🍱 Though he has never been treated differently, one could perhaps understand the boy's subconscious thoughts. 🍱 Where he has been told on numerous occasions that family in no way equals blood relations, Layne has always struggled with a sense of belonging. 🍱 This was especially elevated when his younger brother was born, twelve years ago. 🍱 Despite the uncertainty running through Layne, he has always attempted to keep these thoughts at bay. 🍱 The only people who have in fact commented on his heritage are a select few, who criticize Layne's Japanese cooking, calling it 'fake', due to his lack of Asian features. 🍱 Ken would, however, be quick to point out that Layne is his son, and has been, for seventeen years. 🍱 Layne was adopted soon after his first birthday. 🍱 Economically, Layne and his family have never struggled for money. 🍱 With Ken's incredible success as a chef, enough so to be seen on the household screen, the Shinagi name is rather well known within the culinary world. 🍱 Due to this, Layne's position in a most prestigious culinary school was set in stone from the very start. 🍱 Today, Layne often maintains the family restaurant by himself, because of how busy his father is with television appearances. 🍱 Luckily, the restaurant is incredibly small, and most of the food is ordered to go. 🍱 Due to this, Layne has been able to maintain the business on his own. 🍱 Currently, Layne is looking for an apartment, where he can move out.
