PERSONALITY
You'll see this in his soccer, where he hangs back in midfield and watches at the start, paying more attention to patterns than gameplay. That's not to say he isn't capable of immediate action, just that he's less likely to take it. He's at his best when he can analyze and predict where everyone will be - he takes this approach of observe, then act as a general life rule. The downside is he can get caught up on something, and he has to pause to shift gears if he's thrown a completely unanticipated curveball, mentally freezing in place until he's incorporated what just happened. He's not only literally wearing blinders, but also has incorporated that hyperfocus so strongly into his mentality that it's both his greatest strength and his greatest weakness all at once. Soft-spoken and introverted, Kidou doesn't often speak up unless he has something to say. He tends to leave things unsaid more often than not, which can sometimes lead to very bad interpersonal miscommunication. He can be hard to know, and he doesn't open up easily; Endou was the first person he'd ever told about his father despite having played with friends for years in Teikoku. He's one of those people who tries to smile when he's sad, and rarely, if ever, says the extent of how something's bothering him. He's very rarely going to argue, especially with an adult; he instead aims to understand their reasoning, withholding judgement or being willing to reassess someone until he gets where they're coming from. If he really can't, then he'll ask to clarify. However, if they're doing something that he can't allow, he'll speak up, or if he's really upset, he'll even yell at people. If there's a revelation that shocks the group, more often than not you'll see Kidou frown, stare straight ahead without moving, or maybe fold his arms instead, barely showing any reaction. That's not to say that it's too difficult to startle him, or confuse him - he's very expressive when caught off guard. It's usually on the field that he lets that composure slip, when there's no time to keep hold of himself, and more of his true feelings slip through the cracks. He tries to not hold grudges, although he doesn't forget anything that happens. But, if someone switches away from being their enemy, he feels driven to try to cooperate, and incorporate them into his strategies. Even if he disagrees with someone, he can't let that affect performance - but that also means he tends to shove himself into a corner and make his identity 'part of the group' half the time. When Fudou was added to Inazuma Japan, he doesn't talk about forgiveness or lack thereof, only a worry that he can't get along with him. He's a team player at heart. This shows pretty tellingly that in anime canon he has no single person shoots that he would ever want to use and he has only one one-person hissatsu we ever see him use. It's been mentioned to him that his weakness is that he's so focused on the group, he can forget about the individual. He doesn't really like himself that much, unsure if he'll ever be free from his own past or his mentor. You won't tend to find out a lot about what he likes, or what he wants in life, from him personally. It doesn't matter. Kidou works well as a leader and better as a tactician, with an eye to the group and a firm belief in his pretty incredible abilities and what he can lead others to accomplish. Find a goal, ensure it happens. In soccer, he's the playmaker; this means he's the guy you give the ball to if you're not sure what to do with it, and he'll see it goes exactly where it needs to. In life, this means he'll take his own initiative to research or investigate. He's got no problem following orders, just as much as he has no problem giving them. He's also decent at giving encouragement to his team, be it soccer or snowball fights. There's people better at that than he is, but he tries. This may come as a complete surprise for a kid who wears his goggles to bed, but deep down Kidou's a massive dork who takes himself too seriously. Sometimes he'll say things that remind you he really is just 14 with a couple complexes. You'd think he's above playing in the snow (yelling 'the cape is safe' of all things...), and you'd be wrong. He's not. He may give this impression that he's above everything and too cool for shenanigans. Don't believe him. He's really, really not. He only has immense pressure to act like an adult way before he's an adult, with the future and reputation of an entire financial company riding on his shoulders, and the worst kind of soccer parent... so he acts dramatic or just hides himself away, and always aspires to be mature. He's a little bit concerned about his image, which is hilarious when that image happens to include everpresent goggles and a cape. Back in Teikoku he was literally stalking people from the shadows in order to observe and understand them, and even after he stopped acting chronically shady and haughty, he still takes to hunting through hallways or cutting through alleyways a little too readily. It doesn't help that he can (though he rarely does anymore) twist facts to be downright harsh to cruel if crossed. More on that later, but that's pretty clearly a result of grooming on Kageyama's part. To Kidou, people are dossiers of actions and likelihood, hissatsu and beliefs. He's gotten very good at gathering intel, and there's a part of it that appeals to him no matter what; he gets nervous if he doesn't know anything about someone he's facing. Life itself is a puzzle to solve, full of small questions and solutions for him to find and put into place. Often, there's a time limit- so he can't waste time reacting or letting himself have feelings about something. If something upsets him that he's powerless against, he doesn't feel like thinking about that is a wise choice - there's other things he has to do, because people depend on him paying attention and not being distracted. Kidou has his occasional moments of being arrogant or haughty, and even more of being downright smug. Despite his sometimes snarky attitude, he's also a very caring individual, who will do anything for his team and his friends, and even genuinely can wish well for his enemies. He's loyal to the end, and once he's put his force behind someone he will do anything in his power to see them succeed. Despite his prestige and his name, Kidou is less interested in personal glory and tries hard to downplay his own problems, preferring to throw his entire self esteem into a group victory. No matter what happens, he truly wants the best for anyone. He's been willing to throw his own future away to put an end to truly bad actions, willing to sacrifice anything he has or does to ensure someone else won't suffer for it, and (later than canonpoint) can be willing to forgive unforgivable people and move on. He's drawn to warm people, and once he finds those he's attached to he tries to stay close to them. Even as a kid, he had a very strong moral center and a deep need to protect people. That hasn't changed, though he got caught up in some very shady stuff and this conflict drives no amount of pain and problems onto his psyche. There is the never-ending (as of this canon point) war between his mental image of himself, and the him that Kageyama sees. And the thing is, the world usually saw Kageyama's version of him, further driving this split home between his true self (good) and his projected self (in hindsight, way closer to evil.). Even Haruna had believed him changed, which hurt him pretty deeply. Kidou started off as a warm, gentle soul who'd immediately stand up for those weaker than him, and adamantly defended his sister against much larger bullies with no regards for his own personal safety. That's the Yuuto that Haruna knew, and loved deeply; that's the him that he is deep down. Shy, but with a fierce sense of justice and what was right. Kageyama tried to shape him into something else. Kageyama's philosophies were simple and brutal; he'd often cite maxims to explain his opinions. He does this often enough in the show, with little variation, that it's entirely plausible to assume he's told these tenants to Kidou for years, over and over. Winning is everything. Losers are nothing. Failure is unforgivable, and not an option. This is all that matters. Victory at all costs. Etc. Kidou even mentions this to Endou in passing: "At first, just kicking the ball was fun. Then people said I had to win." The joy he found in soccer was corrupted and lost until Endou reminded him why he played. Kageyama also had a few things on the sidelines about it being okay to attempt to murder kids, sabotage things, and cheat the way to the top if necessary. He kept THOSE hidden, so that none of the Teikoku team really knew about them, but retroactively finding out was a good way to force Kidou to assume blame for them anyway like the responsible young adult he tries so hard to be. It goes so far against his core nature that it ate away at him. Kageyama went from his idol and mentor to his obsession. Under Kageyama, Kidou was nothing but a loyal pawn, enduring anything thrown at him in silence for the sake of his sister as well as having a home at all. As this continued, he became reserved and closed off. His teammates at Teikoku - even Sakuma, his best friend - maintained a pretty great distance from him... and Kidou didn't even realize how far away he was from making a human connection to anyone. He was respected, yes, but no one really knew his past; Endou was the first he'd ever told, and that was after they'd spent a few weeks fighting each other. For years, Kidou was a shadow of who he really was, his real personality buried beneath the legacy of his adopted name and later his school, and the words of Kageyama, coldly reinforced by his adopted father. When others define him, the Yuuto part of him vanishes, with only 'Kidou the investment' left behind. As long as he did everything Kageyama said, it would all work out. He'd get what he really wanted. Everything would be fine. He tried so hard to fulfill expectations. That's how it was, ever since his adoption into the Kidou family, with an incredible pressure towards perfection and harsh measures doled down for the slightest failures to perform flawlessly. 100s in everything except for one 97? Not good enough. The Kidou Financial Group only accepts the best people. He was obedient, quiet, and dying inside, encasing his heart largely in ice to preserve what he could. He showed nothing; with the goggles came a side effect of hiding his eyes, and Kageyama mentioned teaching him to maintain a poker face. He affected the aloof, arrogant personality that was expected of him until he almost forgot he was ever anything different; he knew who he really was, and he didn't think about what he was doing or saying for way too long. Even now there's shreds of his old self in his actions that he struggles with. This cast him into a deep spiral of doubt and slow breakdown. He faced a genuine identity crisis when he failed Teikoku and his goal of getting his sister back - was he worth the Kidou name, when all he was was an investment to start with? That may be bad, but it's nothing compared to what came a while later: Kageyama told him that he was his greatest creation, which was just about the cruelest thing that Kageyama could possibly do to him. Kidou doesn't think he'll ever be out from under Kageyama's curse. Even his goggles - and as such, his altered perception of the world - were a gift from Kageyama early on in his apprenticeship or whatever they had. It doesn't get more symbolic than that; Kageyama shaped him, from his place in life to his worldview, and Kidou can't escape that. No matter where he goes, he'll always be who he was layered inside of who he is. What actions or thoughts are his? Does he even belong to himself at all? Who IS Yuuto Kidou? HISTORY
The pride and joy of Teikoku Academy. The perfect strategist. Kageyama's greatest creation. Proud and cold, Kidou followed every order without question, ensuring the will of his commander was carried out as well as possible. But Kageyama trained him too well in critical thinking and assessment. Yuuto and his younger sister Haruna were orphaned at a young age (Yuuto at age 6, Haruna at 5) when their parents died in a plane crash. He was young enough he doesn't remember what either of them were like. The only thing the rescue workers could salvage was an old soccer magazine his father had had with him, and this one tie to his father inspired Yuuto to take up soccer. When he played, as he's said, it felt like he could run alongside his dad. He was very protective and warm towards his sister, doing everything he could to support her. But it wasn't enough. He was split apart from Haruna when the two got adopted. A man of questionable character but immense reputation named Kageyama Reiji recognized raw talent in young Yuuto's soccer abilities and recommended his adoption as an investment to a businessman named Kidou (of Kidou Financial Group), whose family name Kidou accepted as his own, swearing to uphold and honor it. So, Kageyama got his hands on Yuuto Kidou, grooming him personally for his eventual nefarious (did you expect anything less) goals. It's Kageyama who gave Kidou his trademark goggles shortly after his adoption, making him put them on to watch a soccer game. They obscure part of his vision, removing his peripheral vision and making him focus on what's right in front of him. This helps him see exactly what's happening and forces him to turn his head to pay full, undivided attention. Thanks to the goggles as a concentration training device, Kidou could tell where the ball was going at all times, as long as he followed it. He's quite literally wearing blinders. Kidou flourished under his tutelage and guidance, becoming a very strong playmaker and leader in his own right. He became the captain of the military academy Teikoku's team, where Kageyama just so happened to be the coach, and proceeded to use their amazing techniques and perfect precision formations to demolish other schools because they lost at soccer, and Kageyama said so. Yes, really. It just gets weirder from here. Kidou made a deal with his adopted father, in order to get his sister back. If he got consecutive National championships during junior high, his father would make the effort to get Otonashi Haruna transferred. If Kidou lost a district match, he might lose his own family. No pressure. All that time, he didn't once reach out to Haruna, not wishing to put her in the way of this or make her worry about it. He'd take care of it. Otonashi, without being told what was happening, thought Kidou no longer wanted her around at all, and took the cut contact hard. As Kidou's excellent at things like emotional communication and personal relationships, this misunderstanding endured. Cut to the present. Kageyama is still the big bad evil coach of Teikoku's team. Kidou's made a name for himself, and Teikoku, by winning. He's ruthless and efficient, following every order out without question or hesitation. He never thinks about it. As mentioned earlier, schools that fell to Teikoku were demolished, and beneath the watchful eye and will of Kageyama, it was Kidou who gave that order. And then he meets Endou ... okay. Let me back up a little bit. The basic premise of Inazuma 11 is as follows: Soccer, in Inazuma, is not a sport. It is not a religion. It is a way of life, where you show your personality and thoughts and drive to live and thrive through special magical techniques and moves called hissatsu. Your soccer isn't just 'how good you are at soccer'. It is a very unique and personal expression of yourself through summoning totally normal things like dragons, demons, RC vehicles and penguins to ferry your ball towards the net or destroy the field on the way, where a goalie who can do totally normal things like open a miniature black hole or punch the ball repeatedly is waiting. So when I say someone's soccer, I refer to a very specific kind of thing, where your soccer can be synonymous with your soul. Or your heart. Or your imagination. Endou Mamoru is the personification of the spirit of soccer. If there's a goddess of victory actually out there, he is her true chosen champion. Most schools have themes; there's the military academy of Teikoku, where victory at all costs is their refrain. There's a cult school called Occult Jr. High, who features a team of ... I'll let you see for yourself. Occult, horror, etc. There's a delinquent school. The list goes on. Raimon Jr. High, where Endou's from, does not appear to have a theme at first until you realize their theme is Endou, and their creed is SOCCER IS FUN!!! They are a team of determinators, and known quickly for being an unstoppable force, and with Endou fueling their enthusiasm they quickly end up getting more and more powerful as the match goes on. That's how Raimon works. Their raw enthusiasm is infectious, and once it touches someone, they tend to change. So. A highly skilled soccer player named Gouenji transfers to Raimon Jr. High, who Kageyama has a preexisting grudge against because he's a horrible person. Gouenji has no interest in ever playing soccer again, because some tragic soccer backstory involving his sister being in a coma after being hit by a car. At the moment, Raimon's soccer club just barely exists at all, with too few numbers to form a proper team. Neither of these things seem to matter to Teikoku at all, which promptly issues a challenge to Raimon simply to try to draw out Gouenji and see if he's still got it or not. And, you know, risk demolishing Raimon anyway, fun times. Anyway. Endou's not only cool with this completely unexplained match with the school that hasn't lost in 40 years and destroys buildings, but stoked for the chance to meet the best. He's full of jubilant energy and enthusiasm, no matter what Teikoku does to him. Don't get me wrong. Raimon technically lost like 10-1. But... that's the thing. Raimon, completely unformed, untrained and uneverythinged, managed to get a point on Teikoku anyway. It's pretty standard shounen protag ridiculousness; Gouenji joins in after a member we don't care about flees (no really, he's unimportant despite his insistence he's a tertiary character for the whole thing, I think he does like one thing ever). Endou, inspired by Gouenji, manages to summon up a legendary blocking move no one's seen in like 30 years called God Hand. And Gouenji gets full of FIGHTING SPIRIT after this display and manages to score when Endou tosses him the ball afterwards. Since Teikoku got what they want, they withdrew from the match, leaving Raimon still standing and technically the victor despite the scoreboard. Because he managed to block a hissatsu technique called Death Zone, and because of Kageyama's weird grudge against Raimon telling him to keep an eye on them (... don't ask, we'll be here all month if I have to explain that), Kidou becomes as fascinated with Endou as Endou is with Kidou. He follows Raimon around during its victories against various teams in order to learn everything about it and runs into his sister, who just so happens to be in Raimon. And, in true Kidou fashion, explains nothing about what he's doing or his plan to get her back, coldly brushing her off to try to spare her. Good old Kidou, furthering this soap opera. Then Teikoku posts a spy in Raimon itself (who defects pretty easily due to Endou being made of magic and happiness). That spy uncovers something very important for all the players of Teikoku; one of the reasons that Teikoku's been undefeated for 40 years is because Kageyama is willing to rig dirty games and get people hurt. Domon (the spy) finds out that the bus to take Raimon to the primary match is tampered with and might get Raimon's players killed. Kidou had no knowledge of Kageyama's actions, and when he and the team find out, he becomes obsessed with finding out the truth, confronting Kageyama himself demanding to know what that was about. Kageyama doesn't tell him, and mentions as he's leaving that pawns that don't obey are useless. During the district national match, he's skulking about his own school looking for any signs of Kageyama's interference. He wants a fair fight with Endou Raimon. During this, Otonashi Haruna confronts Kidou, saying he's changed from who she knew, he's a stranger, and asking if she's in his way. He can't answer, but is clearly stricken by this confrontation. They get their evidence almost too late to do anything; stuff above was messed with, part of the ceiling falls on Raimon as they're getting ready, but Kidou was able to warn Endou in time and Raimon was standing behind the massive metal support beams that would have killed or at least severely injured a group of 14 year olds. He and Teikoku confront Kageyama about this, quitting the team and then offer Endou victory before they even play, ashamed and horrified of what just happened. Kageyama told Endou about Kidou's deal with his stepfather, and that if he loses this match, he could lose everything. Endou's unwilling to accept that offer, so they go play soccer and have fun. They have so much fun that Kidou manages to decently hurt himself with pulling off Koutei Penguin 2gou after straining his foot earlier, but more importantly, Kidou gets to talk to his sister during the match. She runs to him to help soothe his injury mid-match. He tells her he's always thought about her and she's never been in his way. Then Haruna gets clued in by people way better than Kidou at socialization about what's really going on with her brother, so they have a reunion after Raimon wins and ends Teikoku's winning streak. A really bittersweet one; they'll never be in the same family, but honestly Haruna dodged a bullet there, Kidou's life is hell. They're still siblings, they still love each other, she can tell that deep down Kidou's the same person he's always been, and that's what matters, right? Moving on. As the previous year's champion, Teikoku's allowed to move forward anyway. And then... next match Teikoku loses horribly without scoring a single point in a crushing victory that leaves all their members hospitalized. Kageyama adopted a new team called Zeus, pumped them full of steroid cheater juice 'aqua of the gods' and they were so inhumanly powerful that even Teikoku never stood a chance. Kidou is crushed by this - remember that injury he sustained? He sat this match out. He got to watch his friends and teammates get brutally mauled - and I mean brutally. Soccer is dangerous and hissatsu aren't to be taken lightly (and Teikoku was also capable of tearing fields to shreds like this, but I don't remember them leaving lava pools...) And he was fine, compared to them. Endou doesn't want to believe Kidou Teikoku- let's be fair, he just cares about Kidou - lost so easily, and runs to have a heart to heart with his dejected rival. Kidou ends up inviting him to his way too clean, soulless mansion of a house to explain his tragic backstory, they bond over having departed relatives who their only tie to is soccer. Yuuto Kidou - rich as hell, incredibly lonely, feeling like he betrayed everyone he cared about by not playing in a match where he was too hurt to do much, and convinced his soccer was over forever. Fun times. Through the efforts of Endou and Gouenji, resident soccer therapist, he comes back around. His new mission is to get revenge on Zeus and avenge his team, so he switches schools, and cape colors - that's a thing, I swear - in order to join Raimon. He visits Teikoku in the hospital, talking about it a little. He also spends some time talking to the coach beforehand. Give him 10 minutes, he says, and he'll sort out what the teams' problems are and correct them. That's exactly what he does, and just when it was vital, too. He analyzes how everyone's doing, then starts telling them how to adjust their playstyle to win. And, just as he said, they DO start winning. The genius tactician at work. With him, they face down Zeus. Now, Zeus has Kageyama running it, much to Kidou's horror. It also features said cheater juice, making all of the members supernaturally powerful - fitting since they're themed after Greek mythology. Raimon powers through. Endou blocks the balls with his body when his powers aren't sufficient, until he finally learns a new hissatsu. Gouenji and Kidou, inspired, take up the battle and end up rapidly making up the score difference, Endou runs out of the goalie box to do a group hissatsu and they win. All hail the champions! Except Kageyama gets away without anyone being able to arrest him for cheating, and then aliens destroy Raimon. So that's a thing. There's more that happens, but there's less to do with Kidou for a lot of it. Aliens show up to take over the world with soccer. I couldn't make this shit up. Raimon's not powerful enough to take them, another coach (Kira Hitomiko) takes Hibiki's place, and she shepherds the group around collecting new members, kicking out members who aren't performing to her standards, and being generally no-nonsense ruthless. To be fair, the world's kinda at stake and there's no room to mess around. She keeps working very hard to level her team. She gives Kidou puzzles to solve, changing variables on him or flat out giving him unoptimized team builds to find ways to work around. Thanks to her, he starts learning to be more flexible - less like ice, more like water. While the rest of the team might openly question or challenge her decisions, he almost never does, often trying to see the logic behind her thoughts first. Even when he doesn't agree, he can't allow it to get to him; he's been willing to work with her since the first day. A lot happens, but we pick back up his personal tragedy when Teikoku reemerges into the picture. Hitomiko gets a message that Kageyama's back, and he's ruining Kidou's old teammates in new and inventive ways. As a little background, there's a meteorite that's given the aliens some kind of fearsome power. Kidou's old teammates are equipped with old pieces of it, and rallied under the banner of a new asshole captain named Fudou. It's also now called Shin Teikoku, or 'real Teikoku' instead of Teikoku. A while ago, Kageyama, in his neverending quest to ruin fun and Kidou all at once, invented Koutei Penguin No. 1. It's a very powerful move, capable of tearing through all kinds of defenses and crippling opponents, but it comes at a severe cost. As Kidou puts it, doing it twice puts you at your limit. A third time you'd be unable to play soccer ever again. (Kidou, Sakuma and Jimon reworked this move to create No. 2, in order to have the power of penguins without the whole 'you kill yourself to use it' thing. This means they've all used No. 1 and know it, and they made a pact that No. 1 was sealed off and forbidden forever. Think about that.) There's a similar move for the goalie position called Beast Fang - stops anything, kills the user slowly. Why is this relevant? Because Sakuma in the midfield/forward position and Genda as goalie are both using these moves in this fight. This is not okay. Kidou freezes up pretty hard, screaming at Sakuma to please stop, at Fudou for why the hell he's allowing this and following Kageyama's orders, at Kageyama for existing... it's only thanks to his team rallying to protect Genda and Sakuma, as well as supporting Kidou and promising him they'll take care of this too that they're able to win. Sakuma mentions to Kidou during this match that he was always jealous he couldn't catch up to Kidou no matter what. Sakuma goes back to the hospital, immobilized and telling Kidou that for a brief moment, he could see the same strength Kidou did. It sure is fun being Kidou - you're damned if you win and you're damned if you lose. Kidou's just glad his friend is alive. After all this, he goes to yell at Kageyama only to be swept up by a helicopter as the submarine the match took place on explodes. Kageyama's swept Fudou aside as useless, and tells Kidou he was his greatest creation. Kageyama's fine, by the way, there's more of his delightful antics later. They finally beat all of Aliea's teams, uncovered the shocking revelation about Aliea being the work of yet another guy who hates fun and weaponizes children or otherwise endangers them to ruin soccer, and all seemed okay. And then time for the world championship rolls around. Kidou's selected for Japan's team, naturally. ... and so is Fudou, who Kidou hasn't forgiven for the whole Shin Teikoku mess that almost killed his old teammates. Kidou mentions to Endou that he's worried he won't be able to get along with Fudou, and that maybe he'll never be free of Kageyama... In canon, this is where they'll start facing off against brackets. As of this app, this is where he'll check out of his world for an extended vacation with poor timing. He'll have all the time he really didn't want to take to obsess about all this somewhere completely unrelated, with none of that resolved and no way to confront or talk to anyone about it. |

Yuuto Kidou
NAVIGATOR
BASICS
PERSONALITY
He is somewhat popular; his strong sense of justice won't allow him to let bullies slide, and his desire to help out means that he'll join anywhere he's needed. He might fill out for a sick member of an athletics team, or pad numbers of a chess team. Open and honest, he talks freely about himself and his emotional state, and usually reads like an open book. He’s gentle-natured and compassionate, but competitive and not above using memes against people (especially when invited) or generally finding ways to entertain himself. He likes fixing problems and knowing things, and especially being right on something. Not surprisingly, his favorite subject in school is science. Unfortunately, he never got the same memo that Kidou did about forethought. Michi is impulsive and often goes with the first idea that comes to mind, whether or not it’s a good idea. Be that yelling at an app and relying on the censer to hide all the information from everyone but the app creators, or heading out to meet a stranger he met on a creepy mystery app to try to leave the island, or even sassing a mysterious person who seems to know too much. He doesn’t try to hide what he thinks for politeness’ sake. HISTORY
Michi’s family moved to Eddan when he was about six; he barely remembers anything about Japan. His parents don’t often talk about it, though they insisted he study Japanese. Simply speaking it at home wasn’t enough. Michi initially resented that - no one else has to go to two separate schools - but he’s come to appreciate their insistence as he got older. There was one time that he decided to be clever and write an entire three page paper he got assigned as punishment in Japanese, but other than that he tends to not make any deal out of it to others. His cousin, Kyoko, lost her parents and was taken in by his family, and Michi generally regards her as if she were his own sister. He’s fiercely attached to and protective of her; she may be a pest, but she’s got a good heart. He’s gotten into more than one fistfight stepping in on her behalf to try to spare her from retribution for things she’s done, though she then has to put up with him turning right around to lecture her to not do that. They also fostered someone else for a while - but it ultimately didn’t last that long. Michi’s grateful for that; he was horrible to them in private while being nice to their parents. They’re not the most well off family, but they manage well enough. Michi gets some things he wants, but he often is willing to ask for cheaper things to make sure Kyoko can get exactly what she wants. |
