His fashion is mostly composed of red clothes as he likes that color. He usually dyes his hair white; he is, in fact, light blonde, but he likes the look that the white locks give him. He likes spicy food or strong food in general, even going out to experiment sometimes with spicy sauces or peppers. [b]Backstory[/b]: [hider=Remember Kyle? No? Oh, you must have forgotten.] Anthony was a simple boy growing up, born to a stern yet sweet woman and a soft yet serious man. His childhood and teenage days were mostly unnoticeable compared to any other boy in his hometown. he was raised as a calm and “neutral” boy, as he puts it in words. Yet, he remembers a friend he had while growing up, Kyle was his name, or at least he remembers, he was weirdly macabre, always talking about death and stuff like that, he liked him as a friend though. But, as time went on, he didn’t seem to age a bit, for example; Kyle appeared to be 15 when Tony was 12, so when Tony was 16, and so when Tony was 18, Also add the fact that Kyle never invited him to his house, if he did ever have one. For Tony’s parents, Kyle was just an imaginary friend, given the fact that Tony’s father had been found out to be incapable of having anymore children, so the logic pointed out that he was an imaginary friend, as Tony’s interactions appeared more, he was pointlessly sent to therapy, yet he was given no real reason, after some more fails at trying to understand why did Tony saw Kyle, they finally gave up. Kyle never disappeared; he kept appearing to Tony even during his birthday, when his mother decided to move to Japan because of a job possibility that was presented to her, Tony had to say goodbye to Kyle. Tony waved his hand to Kyle from the window of their car. Kyle gave a smile, a smile that Tony likes to believe was sincere, even when it probably wasn’t The town’s name was Sagamiyama. Life there was boring, nothing really happened to him and his parents, his mother did start working at the job, and his father’s routine didn’t really change so much, as he was a programmer, so most of his job was done at their house. Tony had begun to work at a fast food restaurant. After one particular busy night, while walking down the street to his house, it was mostly silent, he remembers hearing some distant thud behind him, he ignored it, it could have been anything, then another thud, this one he did turned to see, it was mostly dark aside from the street lights, so nothing particular weird was seen. Tony silently chuckled before he turned his head. Just then, he was hit. [/hider] [b]Why did you become a Substitute Shinigami[/b]: [hider=The Death and the Pepper] He was woken up by a blinding shine of light. He had survived the blow, albeit barely, and there he saw it, a woman, dressed in black robes which seemed more fit for a ceremony than a duel, fighting the thing that had attacked him. Once the beast was reduced to a mist, he saw her eyes; they were serious and cold, reminding him of something, almost a carbon copy of his mother’s gaze. Her words were blurry, something about a Soul Society and that he was selected to be a Substitute Something, maybe it was the boringness he faced in his current life or the blood loss he was suffering, but his response was a clear and resounding yes. Some weeks of training passed courtesy of another of these Soul Reaper people. This one had a comical pompadour and looked like a mechanic; it turned out to be the same mechanic who lived some streets from his house. After the training, Tony began his hunts for hollows. He thinks it’s just a game, a game of playing “knight,” as he calls it. How wrong will he be in the future?
