╔═══ .·:·.☽✧ PHYSICAL APPEARANCE ✧☾.·:·. ═══╗
Body type: He is slimmer than average, lanky limbs and average height, a family trait. Because of this, he has a hard time finding clothes. He is 163 cm tall and underweight. He has a complex about his body because he isn't as strong or well-built as other popular boys. His posture is straight but tense, only relaxed at home. His skin is pale with a yellow undertone.
Appearance: Sunset eyes and wavy, asparagus green hair are his most notable features, rather average in the sea of the well-groomed and thrifty boy and girls at his school. A thin braid falls behind his right ear, clamped with a ring. He is young looking, wearing minimal makeup and trimmed brows. A beauty mark under his right eye adorns his cheek. Tadashi holds his signature radiant smile with pride.
╔═══ .·:·.☽✧ PERSONALITY ✧☾.·:·. ═══╗
Tadashi is the prince-like persona he created in his first year at Teikoku. He is sensible, picking up the slightest change in others' moods. He supports whoever asks for his help and is particularly towards gentle girls. On the other hand, he can't stand criticism and is paranoid about maintaining his social status. Selfless to a fault, he is a pushover, ignorantly so.
Tadatsugu is quite the opposite. He is ambitious, independent, and perseverant in everything he wants to achieve, trying to conquer one of his many childhood fears every day. Like Tadashi, he is prone to paranoia which branched off a persecution complex because of a classmate he now despises. He is quick to hate and slow to forgive, even slower to forget. In front of his sister, he is whiny without reservations, full of himself, and rude with a rich kid attitude. He is emotionally immature and stubborn about maintaining and nurturing the negative image he has of his parents.
╔═══ .·:·.☽✧ RELATIONSHIPS ✧☾.·:·. ═══╗
Family: Father, Mother, Elder sister.
People in their personal life: His relationship with his sister is the strongest of the three. Tadatsugu--there is no need to pretend to be good at home--is bitter towards all of them, and believes Himeko is nice to him out of pity, the perfect sister their parents think she is. She cares for him and shows it in physical and intellectual ways: she cooks for him when both are home and the housemaid is off, makes an effort to know about his life, and emotionally supports him when his parents don't. However, she tends to be at the receiving end of Tadatsugu's childish wrath, being told to get a boyfriend and listening to his cynical assumptions of her and their parents. Nevertheless, he depends on her when he breaks down and she is ready to catch him. He does show his appreciation for her before going to square one in their next interaction. Furthermore, Tadatsugu gives back in ways he can: helping her in her studies related to social studies where he excels and giving advice about fashion and relationships. He also has a strained relationship with his cousin, Mitsu Miya. He's been the subject of the prankster's teasing for years and she can read him terrifyingly well.

Introvert/Extrovert: Introvert.
Fears: He is terrified of losing his place on the social ladder, going as far as falling in line and be part of herd thinking. He can be part of class bullying, although his role isn't physical like most boys.
Insecurities: He is deeply insecure about his body, blaming his family genes for being lanky. He detests his long fingers and his weak limbs.
Goals/Dreams/Aspirations: Tadashi's current dream is to become a model. He has been attending auditions for a year where he uses his new alias, however, he hasn't been noticed among the other more attractive boys his age. While each failure makes him more insecure about his body, he cannot make himself give up. He truly loves fashion, being the center of attention in front of the camera, and meeting new people. He wants to work in the fashion industry.
Romantic experience: He obtained a solid club from his first year after he began to act as Tadashi, girls flocking to him wanting to be his friend and perhaps more. He accepted to date a few, those he knew had no bad rumors behind them. However, the relationships didn't last for long. Some girls broke up with him because he didn't seem interested, others he did it himself. He did his best to stay in good terms and convinced them to not talk about their relationship or spread bad rumors about him. Currently, he believes he might like boys.
╔═══ .·:·.☽✧ MISCELLANEOUS ✧☾.·:·. ═══╗
Other Notable Personality Features: In dating, he is an entertainer, smooth, socially intelligent, and assertive. His objective is to make his date have a good time. As a planner, he has every step carefully thought out. However, he is also flexible, and their date will never notice the efforts he puts backstage.
Enemies: He despises his classmate, Ryuugamine Kiyoshi. When they were first-years and Tadashi was starting out with his new persona, he wanted to get acquainted with the Western pretty boy with the hope of being friends. The blonde boy kept to himself and Tadashi couldn't help but project his weak personality on him, believing the boy truly wanted to connect with his peers but wasn't very confident. The more he learned about the boy in their short exchanges, the more he was convinced Ryuugamine was like him. However, the day of the school festival Kiyoshi rejected him harshly and Tadashi reluctantly stepped down, offended. In the following months, he and his peers noticed the boy was staring at them and were grossed out. Tadashi began to think Ryuugamine knew he was being fake and was judging him from a distance. His paranoia only grew and with it, one-sided hatred became protection from the pain from rejection and self-deception. There are times when the feeling is unbearable, and as he learned on his first middle school festival, passive-aggressively bitching about him on social media calms him down. The posts are inconspicuous and he never revealed any information about the boy.
