height , Four feet ten inches
weight , 85 pounds
tattoos and piercings , One in each ear
best feature , Round angelic face and petite frame
general , Bright colors and limited patterns are what describe Hikari's wardrobe. Although she often dresses her petite frame in an abundance of frills and attempts to make herself look as princess-like as possible, she often finds herself shying away from outlandish prints and accessories. So instead of attempting to replicate the current trends in lolita fashion, she tries to stick more with the old school sweet style that make her look like a porcelain doll.
In order to keep this princess-like feel to her clothing and looks, she tries to make herself look as natural as possible. This may seem a bit odd because of the fact that she is Japanese and she lightens her hair to a honey-blonde, but she attempts to keep the color as natural as she possibly can- and the irony of the situation is lost on her. She also wears very little in the way of make-up, except false-lashes to accentuate her wide eyes and colored circle-lenses to enhance her doll-like look.

likes , traditional clothes, Japanese green tea, dancing, green, pink, flower arranging, tea ceremony, Japanese and her family
dislikes , Loud noises, depressing people, bugs, birds, people that don't respect tradition, English tea, and the struggling with English
strengths , She's very well versed in history and very good at listening to people, she loves making new friends, and is always energetic. She's also rather good at dancing, since she's been taking classes since her parents realized her energy needed a physical outlet.
weaknesses , Sometimes she gets over-eager and doesn't notice other people's feelings, she's rather small and has a hard time doing physical things, and she's only quite when practicing tea ceremony. She also has a little trouble with English although she's been learning it since young.
fears , She's afraid of birds because she had a bag experience with one as a child, but most importantly she's afraid of being alone.
quirks , She's a ball of emotions and excitement, but is easily hurt when someone gets angry at her.
secrets , She always wants people to be happy and to like her because she's afraid of being alone and leaving people alone. That's why ever since she first met her older cousin she's been rather protective of him and tried her best to make him happy.
how , She went to her grandmother's house every summer break until she was in middle school, and then she started spending nearly every break with her grandmother to keep the elderly woman company. Since her home was in the relatively quiet and country prefecture of Ibarki she didn't have much exposure to the fashion until she went to her Grandmother's and started playing with her older cousin. He introduced it to her one summer when he was on break from school in Australia by taking her down to Takeshita-dori to explore. Ever since that summer she spent a lot of her time there exploring and finally decided that the lolita style suited her. Her mother and father should have been very traditional due to their profession- but they were both very kind people and saw that this style suited their energetic daughter's sweet personality and frame.
general , Hakari is as bubbly and bright as her name would suggest [Hikari=light] and from the minute she was born she never stopped moving around. From a very young age she was fascinated by the rituals her parents performed and taught her students, however, and would sit mesmerized for hours as she watched the intricate gestures involved in tea ceremony. Her parents has noticed this and taken to teaching her the art, not only as a part of their country's history, but in order for her to calm herself and to give her an outlet for her energies. Later they realized that while this help to calm her for a short time, it was imperative that she have some form of physical release for her energy. When she was five years old her parents signed her up for dance classes, and while she started out doing only ballet she branched out into other genres of dance over the years- including, surprisingly enough, hip-hop (which she enjoys because of the amount of energy it requires).
Due to the fact that Hikari is such an energetic individual she sometimes gets carried away and doesn't realize when she's hurting the feelings of others or cause them to be uncomfortable. Generally she tries to accommodate and include others- although this can backfire on her when she persists too much with someone who would rather be left alone. On more than one occasion she's had someone become so annoyed by her lack of insight that they've blown up in her face. This usually results in a break down for her. Because she's so high strung one small incident can send her spiraling downward and hurting another person causes her a lot of pain- even if it's not that much of a problem for the "victim."

hometown , Mito, Ibaraki
family , Mother, father, two younger brothers (twins), and her cousin (Aaron)
pets , She's rather afraid of birds, but she loves furred animals and has many different kinds that she "rescued" back home. Her favorite pet is a Great Pyrenees she had to leave behind in Japan named Richie, but her second favorite is an injured squirrel that she brought with her whom she named Doraemon after her favorite cartoon cat.
best memory , Her first ever tea ceremony that she performed all by herself.
worst memory , The day her Grandmother passed away.
history , Hikari's mother and father are both from well established Japanese families and had both been sent from their respective families to attend Tea Ceremony school to reinforce their cultural heritage. They met there and fell in love with not only each other but the traditional art. Both families supported the union and together they bough a rather nice traditional house and dojo that they turned into a facility to teach future generations the art that they loved. This was the environment in which the bright and bubbly girl was raised.
Although Tea Ceremony calls for one to be centered and tranquil, Hikari was always the exact opposite. She was always running around in her geta and yukata- singing through the bonzi gardens surrounding her parent's house. Her parents hoped that sending her to Tokyo would help her find another more physical outlet for her energy and allow her to spend time with her grandmother. They had no idea that sending here there would spark her love of the lolita fashion.
They also weren't prepared for her meeting with her elder cousin- who not only introduced her to her favorite fashion, but also endeared himself to her with what she saw as his lonely existence. From the first she had decided that she was going to try and protect him as she did all of her friends and adopted pets. So when she heard that he had chosen a school that catered to both of their favorite fashions and that he was moving to the far away country of England by himself she convinced her parents to allow her to go along as-well. Forgetting her limited fluency in the language, she hopped on a plane and headed for what she hoped would be an exciting adventure.

who? , Aaron Wright
sample post , All of the curses in all the three of the languages he spoke including a few that had to be made up tumbled around like a hive of enraged bees inside his brain as his feet pounded down the snow-slick paths. In all his winter 'finery' Aaron was almost half a size bigger than usual in an attempt to stave of the bitter cold that was freezing him to the bones. The buzzing slipped into an inwardly directed squeal as he booted foot hit yet another patch of snow, only to pick up again with renewed fervor once the danger had passed. Winter- the bane of his existence- had come back again with full force and he wasn't enjoying it.

Although he had awoken this morning to mother nature's decision to plague him once again with the slippery, frozen mush he had decided he wasn't going to let her win. So, with a feeling born completely of defiance that nearly overwhelmed the loathing he felt at the thought of the cold seeping into his bones- the half Japanese boy had piled on his warmest layers and headed out for his morning jog. That's how you could tell how a person's metal really was- in trying times such as these when you're pride always won out. Those were his thoughts as he shivered out into the nightmare of the white landscape.
