(no subject)
Nov. 14th, 2019 03:58 am- His title is SESL Homemaking / Super Elementary School Level Homemaking. He's good at housework (cleaning/housekeeping), cooking, and needlework, and is skilled enough to fix toys and clothes.
- Takara was a "Cinderella without a fairy god mother". He was an unwanted child from the start whose step-mother and father forced him to do everything in the house. Cleaning, cooking, laundry, everything was on him, and he was never allowed to take a break. Worse, he was never allowed to show any sort of unhappiness with his lot in life, receiving harsh and cruel punishments if he ever stopped smiling while attention was being paid to him -- some of which have left physical scars as well as the mental ones.
- Because of his upbringing, he has an obsession with cleaning. Not just with things being clean (though he keeps his space pristine), but having to do things in general. If he's triggered, he'll begin to work ceaselessly, cleaning and cooking and doing everything he can until his hands crack and bleeding. He's been known to burn himself badly on the stove but ignore it and keep going, and has bled into food before (which has sent him into a complete meltdown/panic attack).
- He has a bad habit of saying things in a sing-songy tone when he's really happy about them; and the happier he is, the more childish and sing-songy he gets. This sometimes makes it seem like he's mocking or dislikes things he honestly really adores, but it's nothing remotely close to it. If he's being sing-songy, he's happy and likes the subject or the person he's responding to.
- Takara's class is "Ranger", and he takes a bit after the Dungeons & Dragons Ranger. This means that he has lots of "familiars", in the form of stuffed animals, all made after the image of wild animals. They're of all kinds, from popular ones like lions and tigers to more curious ones like foxes and snakes. He has a habit of carrying around one at all times, though he cycles which he's carrying regularly. He has enough to fully fill a room, but there are a few that he favors for carrying around. All of them are done in very cutesy styles, with cloth teeth and claws. These are:
Paws the lion, his favorite.
Waon the wolf, his second favorite.
the hawk.
the bat.
the weasel.
the jackal.
Growly the bear.
Kenken the fox.
Shushu the snake.
the tiger.
the dragon. - When he completely breaks down, he begins to ramble, repeating the same words over and over like an eerie chant. This can make him come off almost like a horror game child, considering his endless refrains and the dead tone he uses with it (often represented with it being italiced and in red).
- While he can be murderous like the other kids, and has killed adults, he loses all confidence in that when he's on foot, so to speak. He can only act like that when controlling something else to do the work; having to do it "hands on" makes him panic and shrink back into the terrified little kid (making him rather shy with others). He also wasn't very aggressive outside of controlling the robot, either, leading him to hide when the others spoke to adults. He also refrained from heaping abuse on others, including Komaeda, meaning he had somewhat of a polite (if distant) relationship with him (though he still thought of him as "The Servant"). He tended to watch Komaeda a lot, since he admired how well Komaeda could clean. He also gave him a tiny kitten, because she was a new doll and he thought she wanted to protect Komaeda.
- When he's especially shy, he'll use his plushie's paws to do things, like wave or touch stuff. If he's really, really unsure or nervous, he'll "speak" through the dolls.
- There is one way to cut through Takara's shyness, and that's if his friends are really in need, or really encourage him. As scared as he can be, if he's got the Warriors behind him, he thinks he can do most anything. If it'll impress Nagisa, he'll do it even more.
