Who's that?

Don't know who the hell I'm waffling about? Well, it's probably one of those three. Here's a crash course to who they are!
This is a general overview of the character and doesn't cover any AUs where they might be the opposite gender/trans/another sexuality.

Jiro

Kaego

Ichiro

Jiro

  • gendervoid, he/they, cinthean, 21 (?) years old.

  • korean

  • PTSD, BPD, hypersexuality, COCSA/CSA/SA victim

Bluntly put, spineless. Jiro struggles with finding a sense of identity he actually likes instead of trying to appease whoever's in front of him. Keeps being dragged in horrible situations because of it, really just wants to be over with suffering but can't catch a break due to him being unable to say no.Playlist and full toyhouse profile below

Kaego

  • genderqueer, he/any, queer (unlabeled), 25-27 years old.

  • japanese-kazakh

  • BP, autism, innapropriate affect, sexual masochism disorder, SA victim

Few words are able to describe the Kaego experience,"freak" would be a good start, but he is a loveable freak for a few lucky people nonetheless. He tends to test out whoever is in front of him in sometimes uncomfortable ways, adapting to them and reflecting what he assumes they want or need coming from him, so it takes a lot of patience to actually get to know him on a deep level.Playlist and toyhouse profile below

Ichiro

  • transfeminine, he/she, gay, 26 years old.

  • zainichi korean

  • ADHD, hypersexuality, schizophrenia, COCSA/SA victim

Ichiro can be extremely loving and protective, but with people he doesn't know a lot, his paranoia alone could be enough to set him off on a path of life-ruining acts of pettiness. If he gets enough time spent with someone, his guard could eventually go down, but that requires an effort many people aren't willing to go through, especially as Ichiro will refuse to provide any help to make the process easier on any of them.Playlist and toyhouse profile below

Jichigo

Jichigo

Having known each other for many years, Ichiro has been a good support for Kaego way before they were ever romantically involved, as he was the only person who saw beyond her looks and veneer and wasn't turned away by it. She helps keep his more impulsive traits in check and is deeply amused by the tricks and gifts Kaego will pull to to show his affection. In turn, Kaego is the safest person she knows she can rely on when she's feeling delusional or generally too tired to pretend.

Kaego used to be extremely jealous towards Ichiro and how easy he seemed to have it, but since Ichiro had always been genuinely kind the jealousy quickly faded and turned into a sort of admiration for his efforts and passion. It took a long time to realize attraction was involved on both ends of their relationship, but when they became romantically involved Kaego became stuck to Ichiro like glue and doesn't intend to ever let go.

Having participated in saving Jiro from a trafficking situation, Ichiro originally stayed at a distance to try and encourage them to open up and become who they wanted without being pressured to fit the expectations of another person. Despite trying to avoid attachment, Ichiro ended up falling in love, and understanding Jiro felt the same but would never make the first step due to feeling undeserving of such feelings, he made the first step. The rest is history, with Ichiro still being the strongest pillar for them to open up to the world again.

Jiro quickly developed an attachment to Ichiro due to the role she played in saving him while knowing it would probably end up not being reciprocated. Jiro ended up sticking to her a lot, trying to get used to a normal life again, and eventually his quite lovely personality hidden under all of his trauma broke through and got Ichiro to make a confession, something quite vulnerable Ichiro has done very rarely. Still uncomfortable with going outside uncovered, not a lot of people have gotten to know him and it has usually been through the mediation of Ichiro, his biggest reassurance.
