• • • SHINJU TAMAKI 20 ████████ ████████ ████████ ████████ ████████ My Statsxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Full name: Shinju Nicole Tamaki Age: 24 [Now 25] Gender: Female Birthday: Summer 20 Height: 6'0" Hair color: Blonde Eye color: Purple-gray Sexuality: Bisexual Job: Coffee shop employee Journal/Diary: On the shelf next to her bed.████████ ████████ ████████ ████████ ████████ My Storyxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx About: Shinju's life growing up was never particularly interesting; her mother was a homemaker and her father provided enough for everyone to live comfortably and without worry. Her relationship with her sister had always been tense and resentful, and so when she graduated high school she spent two years traveling the world, just so she could get away. However, when she was 19, her parents died in a car accident, leaving her the sole guardian of the one person she's never truly liked. They moved to Nirvani, where they could possibly try to adjust to their new lifestyle in peace.
Shinju appears to be your average quiet, gentle, introverted young woman, but she's got some crazy things hidden away up in her head and has a morbid fascination with most things erotic. Not that she'd ever admit it. She's currently working on a book about her travels, but it's moving slowly. Because she can't support herself and her sister on a book she hasn't written yet, she's doing any odd jobs she can find with her limited experience.
Despite a natural responsible personality and an almost OCD-like need to be prompt and to get things done, she's pretty clumsy. She's always forgetting her keys and phone at home, as well as her wallet, and she's a terrible driver.
She's as musical as her sister is, mainly because her family had always emphasized music as something important, but her laziness gets in the way. She plays clarinet, only because she was in the school band and had to keep up with it. At one point she could play keyboard, guitar, and autoharp, but she's completely forgotten.
Her life on Nirvani has been anything but simple. She was hoping to lead a quiet, peaceful life away from the stress of the city, but of course, her crappy luck had to get in the way. Her house got broken into, her sister was being stupid, and then she discovered she was going to be an aunt. Since then, her life has revolved around supporting her teenage sister and her preschooler nephew. Shinju's had to sacrifice any hopes for a social life, but she's too busy to notice.

• • • KOTONE TAMAKI 14 16 ████████ ████████ ████████ ████████ ████████ My Statsxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Full name: Kotone Angela Tamaki Age: 18 [now 19] Gender: Female Birthday: Fall 12 Height: 5'2" Hair color: Blonde Eye color: Green Sexuality: Heterosexual Job: Student Journal/Diary: At the foot of her bed ████████ ████████ ████████ ████████ ████████ My Storyxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx History: Kotone always worked hard to maintain a fierce competition with her mellow older sister, which meant that they argued and fought and disagreed more than they got along, but that was just how she liked it. Her relationship with their parents was much worse than their relationship with Shinju, so her upbringing was much different. The two were complete opposites; Shinju was tall, Kotone was short, Shinju was quiet and gentle, Kotone was loud and self-centered, Shinju was near-sighted, Kotone was far-sighted, Shinju was right-handed, Kotone was left-handed... The list went on. Needless to say, she was relieved when her sister moved away, but when their parents died two years later she found herself in the care of the one person she hates the most. Now Kotone's just trying to figure out where she stands now that her sister really is the boss.
Kotone has always been attention-hungry and dreams of becoming a famous singer. Not one who has to get by on talent alone, of course, but more of a pop idol who can do well just because she's cute.
She's pretty damn stupid and incredibly immature. She's unrealistic and gullible. However, she's actually kind of good at math, reads a lot, and has taught herself how to play the keyboard, drums, and guitar (of course, she's forgotten it all). Her parents and extended family were always very musically inclined, and she took it a step further. She played percussion back in junior high. Sure, she's not particularly talented at any of it and still can't read music, but at least she tried.
Because she's an idiot, she's managed to be taken advantage of a remarkable number of times since moving out here. But she's too stupid to care, or notice. Now she's Sonata Town's token teen mom! 8D
She has an imaginary friend, a unicorn named Frederick. It's Frederick who tempted Kotone into sleeping with Zach, the father of Peter, and ever since, he's done nothing but tell her what a whore she is. Still, she respects him.

He's developed to be a surprisingly normal child, despite an idiot of a mother and a strict, workaholic aunt. He's quiet, and is known to speak to himself. His room is filled with bears and dinosaurs, and his dream is to one day ride a real Brontosaurus. Since being kidnapped by Gaston to play with his "son", Peter has become close friends with Muse Sonata and Wilhelm LeBlanc, and he likes to talk to them a lot. Ask him what he wants to be when he grows up, and he'll say that he wants to be Muse's husband and Wilhelm's wife, much to Kotone's amusement. Even though he's by no standards intelligent, his speaking skills are ahead of most his age.
He's easily confused and persuaded. He has trouble remembering that Shinju is his aunt, not his father.

• • • BACKGROUND
Shinju and Kotone were born to Marie and Eiji Tamaki. Marie was a Swedish nurse and Eiji was a Japanese computer programmer. They met through friends, were roommates for a while, and married at a good, appropriate age. They moved from the city to the suburbs so that they could start a family. Shinju was born first, and and six years later, Kotone followed suit. Shinju had memories of the city, and remembers a childhood full of music, art, and culture. Kotone's childhood was heavily marked by financial issues. Shinju got along well with her parents, while her sister often butt heads with them due to a general stubbornness and frustration. Shinju was tall and awkward, was teased quite a bit in school, was shy, yet yearned to see the world. When she graduated from high school, she packed a bag and went out to travel the world and see all she could.
Kotone's life changed a lot with her sister out of the house. The dynamics of the family shifted, and all of a sudden she found herself resenting her sister even more. Puberty only made things harder for everyone, and she hated Shinju for being apart from the conflict. Kotone was Shinju's complete opposite, and those differences caused a great deal of inferiority issues, for the both of them.
Kotone focused on her videogames, her fairy tales, and her books, while Shinju hopped from country to country. That is, until one night. Shinju was nearly twenty, and Kotone's fourteenth birthday was also approaching fast. For their parents' anniversary, they decided to go out to their favorite restaurant up in the mountains. They stayed out a little too late, had a little too much to drink, and got confused in the dark mountain roads. When a deer darted out into the road, they lost control of the car and crashed into the trees.
Kotone was home alone when the policemen came to the house. It took a full day to track down Shinju, who returned back to her hostel to find an unpleasant phone call. She hurried back to the States as quickly as she could. Their parents had passed away, and Shinju was now Kotone's sole guardian. Shinju, having never worked a day in her life and having no college education, couldn't support two people in the suburbs (or god forbid, the city), so the two moved to Nirvani, where the cost of living was cheaper and they could try to start over.
