Tsubasa Shizuoka

Appearance
Tsubasa stands at 5 foot 8 inches and has long black hair that is mostly black but has some other colours making it look like a hair-dye experiment. It is parted at the middle with a braid on the right that he often plays with when he has something on his mind. He has lightish-brown skin that he inherited from his Filipino father and shining violet eyes he got from his mother. He always tries to stand with a straight posture to make himself look confident. He is often seen wearing a colourful polo shirt and fatigue cargo pants outside of the school uniform. Almost every single time he can be seen carrying a closed umbrella to protect him from the sun or the rain and the only times he can be seen without it is if it is broken or misplaced.

Personality
Tsubasa Shizuoka appears like he is always thinking, but he is just waiting to be spoken to, always preparing what to say or what to do in case someone happens to approach him so he can either impress them or make a good impression. The moment you talk to him he has a smile on his face that is eager to respond back. But if he is alone or not interacting, he looks somewhat down. He also cares so much about his friends and family, especially his little sister, who he lets toy around with his hair, like braid it or make him dye it to different colours. So much that he's like a doormat, afraid to say something bad, hurt them, or be thought as a lesser friend. His hobbies consist of playing with yo-yos (even though he can only do basic tricks), listening to podcasts on the internet, and eating ice cream whether alone or with friends (because ice cream is the BOMB!).

Background
Tsubasa is starting his first year of high school in the rural town of Inaba, his grandmother's hometown, because a private school in the big towns was not in the cards for the Shizuoka family as they could not afford it. He is staying with his mother's parents for the duration of his high school life as planned and likes the bonding times they have, though he does go out to see his parents and little sister once a month. Since he moved away from his old school, he tries his best to stay connected to his old friends, often trying to email/text them, but does not get a lot of replies. Now he is trying to make new friends in a strange place he's visited only a handful of times since friends make him feel stable.
