Cast Username: Otakon BK Name: Sora Kobayashi / Hideki Kobayashi Age: 19, appears older Likes: Cake, cooking, anime, writing stories, family, watching the sunset, going to the arcade, karaoke, pizza, work out at least an hour a day Dislikes: Wasabi, bitter food, food with way too much salt, going a day without at least an hour devoted to workout, a certain classmate. Bio: Sora was born to Mamoru, and Motoko Kobayashi. Her life was pretty nice. Peaceful... She never understood why her grandmother always called her Hideko. But she didn't mind it. She hated it when some of her friends started calling her that too. When she entered her final year of middle school she was moved into a dorm near the school so she'd learn to take care of herself.
When she started high school she met someone she couldn't stand. She did her best to ignore him. It was easy since he was usually seated to her right. She couldn't see him because her right eye was blind since she was born.
She started going to college, and she thought she was free of that guy. But she was wrong...Unknown to Sora she is reincarnated from her grandfather Hideki. Hideki was 'reborn' when Sora's personality was wiped away by his emotion, and memories. What was once regret, and guilt turned to anger, and hate. The change was also quite painful at that. Personality Traits: Sora is generally a kind, and fun-loving person. However she can get annoyed quite easily. She has quite a sweet tooth, and always has a cake when at school. She usually shares with her friends. She developed a habit of working out after school so she wouldn't gain any weight from eating as much cake as she does. Though she is good at sports she never joined a team.She suffers fears of heights, spiders, and enclosed spaces. She is scared pretty easily by loud noises. Hideki used to be quite kind. But now he has a negative outlook. However he would sometimes try to do a good deed once in a while. Over all he seems as if he locked his heart away behind a wall of ice. Hiding whatever kindness he used to have. Unlike Sora he seems very distant even more so to female classmates. He still likes making cake, and have Sora's habit for working out at night. Appearance: Other: Regrets having 'Sora' fading away. Username: Wuppa Wuppa Name: Yuki Sarangou Age: Seventeen Likes: ♥ Chocolate spread on a warm bagel ♥ Smelling sweet Lilly of the Valleys ♥ Occasionally doing volunteer work ♥ Honesty ♥ Being carefree Dislikes: ✖ Vulnerability ✖ Injustice ✖ Olives ✖ Energy Drinks ✖ Manipulation Bio: Yuki isn't generally considered as an individual figure that can hold her own when necessary, but she can be quite quick to change her personality if need be. She enjoys the walk in a park on sunny days with that perfect gust of wind against your face and especially hot tea on a cold evening wrapped on a blanket. She was born here, her parents were both agricultural farmers who survived on the land, and Yuki helped them too for the most part. Her radiant beauty does not seem to clash against the elements like mud against her thigh, or a frostbitten nose she always finds a way to keep smiling. Although she can be a bit cynical when times are at their most sadistic, she finds hope for herself and her family every day. After being released from her duties Yuki would wander around the farm, observing the insects that thrived on this brown mush that was necessary for both them and her, she found a new love for animals when a stray red panda wandered onto a log near a small stream that connected to the forest. With she many adventures, Yuki always has time to share what's happened in her life, but will, without apprehension will let the other party speak before she. It was just polite, wasn't it? She's fairly feminine, and carries a lean body. Personality Traits: ✠Nurturing ✠Sincere ✠Self-Loathing ✠Paranoia ✠Accepting Appearance: Other: Often suffers night terrors.

Class had ended a couple hours ago, and Sora was on her way to the lake side. It was an interesting area which she likes to go to often. There is a shopping stip, and an interesting array of food stands. She was in the mood for takoyaki.
Today she decided to bring a notebook with her. Lately she has been having dreams of her grandfather's life. She'd been writing down everything she had seen in her dreams. The worse part of those dreams was when she... or he died.
Grandma Yukari had told him that Yuki betrayed him. That she was seeing another man behind his back. But in the dream her expression seemed.... evil. Well, ancient history like that probably doesn't really matter. But she always wondered why her grandfather had died right when her father was born. Perhaps something she will never know.
She felt pain in her heart. It went away quickly. Sora let out a sigh as she sat down on a bench to watch the water.
Unlike other female students Sora usually wore pants instead of a skirt. She was like that ever since an incident in middle school when a boy flipped her skirt.
As Sora sighed she wondered vaguely to herself "Why am I getting myself worked up over something like this? It has nothing to do with me.... Why do I feel.... regret? It wasn't my choice... it was my grandfather... not me..." Ever since she started having these dreams she'd been cursed with regret. She didn't understand why she felt this way. Plus, it wasn't a choice that she made anyway.

❀ ❀ Yuki Sarangou ❀ ❀ With an elated giggle Yuki made her way out of the school, carrying a water bottle in her hand while her satchel bounced against her hip, resonating the sound of a hopeful evening spent watching the animals and conversing with her parents. But to be honest, she never really felt connected. Perhaps they were just...needing some alone time? Satisfied with that thought Yuki crossed the street and began skipping happily as she drank her water, towards a peaceful stream. With eyes widened she saw a beautiful lavender flower, one of the most sweet smelling things ever in her life. She was drawn to the small tree as she plucked a single flower and began to sniff it happily, another moment of triumph! She smiled as her gaze wavered, eventually leading to a girl about her age, if not older sitting on a bench, very enamored in her observation of the passing stream.
Not wanting to bother her or break her focus Yuki managed to squeeze herself behind the bench and quietly shuffle towards the other end, smiling sheepishly, the things she did to help preserve the happiness of others. A true goody-two-shoes.

Sora sighed without noticing she wasn't alone. She started drawing on a blank page of her note book. It was an image of the Yuki that appeared in her dreams. On another page was Hideki. As she was drawing she wondered vaguely if her grandmother lied to her grandfather in a way to steal his heart.
Seeing how cruel some females can be she wouldn't put it past her to do something as sneaky as that. Whenever she asked about things like that she'd usually avoid answering the question.
After she finished the drawing she placed a hand on her chest. The pain became quite severe with a flood is guilt, and regret came flooding in. Why does this happen? It had nothing to do with her.
She turned when she felt a presence behind her. She had a confused look on her face. This girl looked strangely familiar.. yet she couldn't place it.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx❀ ❀ Yuki Sarangou ❀ ❀ Yuki managed to catch a glimpse of the girl's drawing and found it to be quite well drawn, the details distinct and crisp, only a true artist would be able to maneuver her hand like that. She smiled again, turning her head away in shame.
She quickly paced away from the dark haired girl, managing to nearly trip herself on a small misplaced stone, the tip of her shoe skidded against the pavement but she ignored it, holding the flower steady and keeping her arms straight as she hurried away.
She had seen that face before, and it told her of a bad omen.

Sora looked quite confused. She wondered why the girl ran off so quickly. Well, it probably didn't matter much. Perhaps she was just late or something. She vaguely wondered if she met her before somewhere. She silently shook her head before getting up to leave.
A random girl from Sora's class ran past Yuki yo get to Sora, "Hey, Hideko! Are you on your way home? Perhaps we can eat together?" the girl asked her. Sora was sometimes confused why girls ask her out often. Well, nothing serious, but still. Or perhaps it was just out of friendship. Sora did have a bad habbit of thinking of things in a weird way.
"Sure, does ramen sound good?" Sora asked. the girl nodded. The two of them went off for a nearby ramen shop.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx❀ ❀ Yuki Sarangou ❀ ❀ Continuing her hasty getaway Yuki saw another girl pass her, and as she turned to see who it was, she was a bit surprised to see the girl talking to the one on the bench, 'oh, her friend must have tried to look for her' Yuki thought with another nod of her head. She shook the thought away from her head and turned back to her path and followed a small dirt road leading up to her small shack of a house. Smiling brightly as she opened the door her mother gave a tight hug and welcomed her inside. Sliding off her satchel and placing it onto the wicker chair Yuki went into her room and undressed to some shabby farmer clothing, a loose shirt and even looser overalls over them. Pulling some heavy boots over her overalls cuffs she pulled up her sleeves and tied her hair into a tight bun and went towards the field when her father stopped her- "and what are you doing going outside in such clothing? Shouldn't you be doing your homework?" Yuki flashed a sheepish smile before trying to pull away from her father, eventually failing in the process of his tight grasp on her shoulder. Sighing heavily she sulked back to the satchel and retrieved some Algebra review homework, some Geometry, and even more Algebra...
She couldn't wait until she was done with her assignment to go plowing in the rich soil and meet so many new animals!

Sora, and the other girl ate together. As she ate the girl went on, and on about how annoying her boyfriend could me while occasionally taking a bite of her food. Though it didn't show Sora did get a little annoyed. "Wait too long, and it will get soggy" she said softly. That got her to be quiet. The chef seemed relieved as well.
After they were finished Sora took up, "I hate to be rude but I do have quite a bit of homework to get finished" she said before she paid for both their meals then started walking towards the dorms.
When she got back she pulled out a couple of notebooks. Homework for tonight consist of math, English, and literature. She decided to go though the math homework first since she actually enjoyed the other two classes.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx❀ ❀ Yuki Sarangou ❀ ❀ With a cramped hand and lead markings all over her palm Yuki let out a happy sigh, pulling the hair out of her eyes while rising from her seat, dutifully grabbing the now smeared notebook papers and made sure they were stacked nicely. Smiling to herself she slipped the papers into her binder and closed her binder and stuffed into her satchel and left the room in a hurry, slipping on her heavy boots as she ran out the door. Her parents, seeing her dash out the door let out a heavy sigh and smiled, her mother leaning on her father with a shake of her head, "she really loves going outside...if only she knew" her father nodded in unison.
Yuki complacently began to dig a new hole for a flower she'd been keeping in a bowl of water for the past three days, making a nearly perfect hole for the violet buds with their cream roots and dark soil. Looking up at the sun she smiled as she paused her digging. What new things would she have seen?That new girl she saw...seemed familiar, somehow, somewhere.
'I wonder if I know her...' thought Yuki happily.

When Sora finished her assigned homework she couldn't help but to think about that girl she met at the shore. She seemed to have run off pretty quickly for some reason. But for some reason she couldn't help but to feel as if she met her somewhere before.
That girl probably went to the same school she did. Maybe even one of the same classes. So it might not have been impossible that they ran into each other once, or twice in school. But Sora felt as if there was something deeper. Perhaps not...
Soon she would get up out of her chair to the small kitchen in her dorm, and started cooking something. Like usual she was making a cake. It wasn't that she wanted cake, or was this cake for anybody. It would so she'd get practice in before she works at her family's cake shop.

❀ ❀ Yuki Sarangou ❀ ❀ With a heavy sigh she managed to plant the flowers and wiped her forehead. Time to go explore for now until her parents came asking for more help then! Her mind was lavished in thoughts of cute little raccoons running about, red pandas scurrying and birds overhead singing their lovely songs. 'What a wonderful life' Yuki thought with a heavy intake of fresh afternoon air. Soon it would be dusk and then she would make her rounds to the ramen shop to gather food for her old parents. She never really knew why they were so lethargic and slow, but she figured she was a late child, a bud delayed by birth only to bloom brighter than all the others.
She rushed towards the stream that was near the plot and washed her face, easing hr shoulders of the coldness against her face after a tiring work. Or was it as tiring as she thought? Whatever, she'd might as well have some fun now than never!

 Within minutes the cake was ready. Like usual it was a strawberry shortcake. Perhaps some people would like some tomorrow during lunch. Most usually would. When she got the cake packaged, and put away Sora let out a yawn. Even though it was early she felt quite tired. So she'd go to her bed, and was asleep pretty quickly. In a dream Hideki stood my the ocrean with Yukari. Yukari held on to his hand. He felt a presance behind him. When he looked he didn't see anyone there. Yuki seemed to have gone missing too. He was afraid that she'd do something crazy. But perhaps he was just being paranoid with guilt.
