His carpet of light brown hair is constantly in disarray; despite the wide variety of hair products in the world, he has yet to properly tame it without spending longer than he really cares to on it. His bangs are constantly over his golden-brown eyes, though he seldom bothers brushing them aside. His body is fit and he feels that he's nearing his peak physically since if he's not home or working he's likely at the gym. That said, there's a hint of shadows under his eyes and he constantly complains about his neck hurting. [sub][color=87CEEB][u]Personality [/u][/color][/sub] Ray feels and acts like a cranky old man, or so he says. Easily irritable, often wanting nothing to do with anyone, and sometimes dozing off randomly does give some merit to his claim. He is mostly keeps to himself though he's more than willing to socialize, only becoming less rough when he has more familiarity. The gruff doesn't bother hiding his opinions or true feelings, preferring to be upfront with his words whenever he does decide to talk. His priority first and always is his career, and if it weren't for stupid labor laws he would spend all his time working if he could. There is a muted passion whenever his interest is seen as he comes to life, putting in effort when needed and often tunnel visioning. [sub][color=87CEEB][u]Biography [/u][/color][/sub] Born and raised in New York, New York and not knowing much of the world outside it, Raymundo is the first child of Maribel and Edgar Parker. His mother's favorite joke is that Ray has been grumpy since the day he was born. He had no real reason to be, but he apparently took after his stern grandfather. His parents were middle class workers who were eager to start a family and share their happiness with their children. At the very least, his younger siblings matched their parents' aptitude, though Ray did feel some semblance of loneliness because of it. Nonetheless he grew up in a loving home, only occasionally feeling some odd sensation once in a while that he never understood but often put aside. It wasn't until he was older that he was properly told about being Fragmented. The very first thought that popped up in his head was how stupid it all sounded. The stories of Reunited and their accomplishments were often seen as success stories, but for Ray personally, he really saw no benefit to it. He liked his life, he loved his family and despite his normally sour attitude, he genuinely felt that he was happy enough as it was. Being Lost was a huge inconvenience, but really, he didn't know any other Fragmented, let alone the one he was paired with. He felt that he was fine on his own and he could ignore the feeling of longing while he figured out his life first. Becoming an officer wasn't his first choice; growing up he was driven by a desire to help people the same way his father, a trauma surgeon, did. That said, burdening himself with debt wasn't appealing, and so he looked to other avenues to help people. During high school he worked with his counselor on a few options, though with his athleticism and good moral compass, he was gently pushed towards becoming a police officer. Maybe if he couldn't help people after they got hurt, he could do what he could to prevent them getting hurt in the first place. Once he graduated he decided to go for it and enrolled in the police academy. He ended up liking it a lot more than he originally thought, deciding to give himself a few goalposts while ignoring the increasing feeling that felt like it was literally tugging at him. Once he graduated the police academy, he did get to see his fair share of cases and ended up shadowing a K9 officer by the name of Klein. Admittedly Ray was more enthusiastic in taking his guidance solely due to getting the chance to have his own police dog someday. While both Klein and his dog Buddy would retire, getting to adopt Buddy cemented his career path. By some kind of dumb luck, just when he felt like he wasn't able to ignore that annoying longing anymore, he received an invitation of sorts. A free vacation and he gets to bring his dog along while finally solving an emotional headache? Seemed a little too good to be true, but he wasn't about to pass it up if it meant getting rid of the problem. [sub][color=87CEEB][u]Other [/u][/color][/sub] The odd, out-of-place green streaks seen in his hair came from what was supposed to be a casual night out with his team that quickly turned into drunken shenanigans. He heard that removing dye sometimes causes hair loss and prefers to just grow them out. He is half Puerto Rican and half white. He speaks and understands Spanish alright, but doesn't utter a word of it unless asked. He's currently trying to quit smoking after learning dogs can get lung cancer from second-hand smoke. Buddy is his dog, he is ten years old and retired from the police force earlier this year. When his handler passed on the opportunity to adopt him, Ray jumped on the chance.

Her nails are always manicured, eyebrows perfectly plucked, and she goes well out of her way to take excellent care of her (arguably) perfect body both with diet and exercise. Everything she wears is specifically chosen to compliment her skin and winter tones while maximizing her fabulousness; she has the body to wear anything she pleases and she takes full advantage of it.

[sub][color=CC99FF][u]Personality [/u][/color][/sub] Perky and inhumanely upbeat, Shiori Fujioka is a name most people won't go forgetting once they meet. She comes off as friendly and charming, though there is a certain cluelessness and tone-deaf pattern when it comes to certain topics. Being in the spotlight is a burden she carries very well, more than happy to keep the topic on herself and her multitude of whimsical stories about her past experiences. As a young adult she is somewhat immature and more than willing to throw money at whatever problems arise; it makes the world go round so it can solve any issues, too, right? Quick to judge and quicker to speak her mind (even if no one asked), she definitely gives off the image of a spoiled heiress. Shiori doesn't seem to be able to handle being alone for too long. She doesn't take it well when ignored, either, looking for other avenues for attention. While it'll likely be a cold day in hell before she ever admits it, the idea of ending up a nobody terrifies her to no end. It's easy to bury herself in her belongings or wealth or even a person so long as she satisfies her needs. [sub][color=CC99FF][u]Biography [/u][/color][/sub] Ushio Fujioka and Kaori Wataba were a pair of Fragmented souls destined for one another. With Wataba Software Engineering at its peak and the Fujioka Corporation looking to cement its place as the best technology company in Japan, their reunion spelled out great things for both companies. Of course, there was also the elation the two experienced, being one another's missing puzzle piece meant that happily ever after was all but guaranteed. Ushio was a stern man softened by his new wife while Kaori was content in being a trophy wife wholly dedicated to her husband, the pair's bond widely publicized and milked for all the good publicity it was worth. After years of a blissful marriage (and timed when the pair could take a break from their busy lives), they decided to start a family. Spoiled even before she was born, Shiori didn't stand a chance against the wealth and luxury she was born into. Her every need was attended to the second the opened her mouth and she was given only the best: the top tutors, designer clothes, skincare procedures that could be used as a down payment for a home for most people. Everything about her life was out in the open, albeit for a majority of her life she felt like she was just floating along for the ride. Despite the image of having a picture perfect family, it became obvious during her teenage years that despite being living proof of her parents' love, they were more interested in sustaining their marriage than actually raising their children. The neglect resulted in a lonely and sheltered upbringing, with Shiori relying on her nannies for parental support. Instead of producing a naive heiress, however, they created what the Yakima Academy for Girls called a monster. Talented and beautiful, it was easy for her to amass a following both in school and on social media, relying heavily on the validation of others. Being Fragmented only added to it; obviously she was destined for a soulmate, one that would be bound to her for life, one that couldn't leave or ignore her no matter what. If it was romantic or platonic then perfect, although even an antagonistic one meant that she actually meant something to someone. But until she found them, she would happily live her carefree life doing as she pleased. When the letter arrived, she had initially assumed that it was some sort of sweepstakes she had won or something. After receiving some clarification, she decided that it was an opportunity to find her [I]soulmate[/I] and a killer chance to have a celebration in such a prestigious location. It was basically a giant party to her, and so she bought an entirely new wardrobe, packed them into several bags, and booked a private flight there. Ready or not, Shiori Fujioka was coming! [sub][color=CC99FF][u]Other [/u][/color][/sub] She is currently pursuing a Bachelor's Degree in Business Administration at the insistence of her father. She is the second highest non-actor/non-singer followed on Instagram. Supposedly she's something of a fashion guru, but many know the heiress is known due to her father's company. Despite being born and raised in Tokyo, Japan, she is known to frequent Beverly Hills, California once in a while. While there are an array of rumors as to why, she goes there when she wants to be invisible for once. CC99FF ★ [/hider]
