Hey everybody! Bookie here, bringing in my second character: Neku Sakuraba from The World Ends With You!

He spends a vast majority of his canon being a dead, bitchy emo kid, who eventually learns about FRIENDSHIP and TRUST and all those shiny things. Also he gets back to life again, so that's nice. Here, he's a very Americanized Japanese teenager (he's a CRAZY REBEL WHO DYES HIS HAIR OH GOD) who's pretty shy and maybe a little prickly at first but is a really nice and loyal friend when you get to know him. His hair also doesn't spike like that, because I'm pretty sure that defies some law of gravity.

Before I post with him, I'd like to see if anyone's up for a little pre-established CR. He was in band and a mathalete (don't laugh) in middle school, now he's into art and track. He's been in weekend Japanese school as long as he can remember, and may be starting to get a little bit of a reputation as a rebel thanks to being strong willed and incredibly stubborn, especially when it comes to art. I've talked to a couple people here and there about possible connections, but hit me up for things here!

Distant cousins????

yes good c: how well should they know each other do you think?

Not very well probably :|a enough to recognize faces or names (depending on what they're better at; Shiro is more likely to recognize a face) from family shit but not enough to know a whole lot!

Ok! :D

Juuust had to say, I am loving the detail about Neku being a mathlete. xD It's NOT normal to recite pi, Neku. :|

Riku here is probably a bit too old for any pre-existing CR, but Riku does parkour and is a freelance photographer, so if Neku still likes street art, they can probably talk. :) ...Once we have a CAT expy.

No, no it's not. XD ~~I always wondered why Joshua never said anything about coming up with square roots off the top of his head... you'd think that would have been a thing to tease him about.~~

Allow him to be super impressed by your parkour skills, Riku. And yes talking should be a thing.

...Part of me wants to just say the expy is DOG, but that doesn't have quiiite the same ring to it.

XD He apparently specifically chose/ most likely researched Neku's strengths and weaknesses so maybe he was just expecting it! c:

Would he be doing any streetart of his own? And haha, true, how about RAT?

Yea, but most of the rest of it he used to bug the crap out of him. XD WHATEVER JOSHUA MAKES NO SENSE.

Not yet, but he will be soon. :|;; That could work!

It's all part of his Master Plan. :|

Cool, Riku might run into him then. c:

Hiya Bookie! :D I'm Helen, local Alucard from Castlevania Symphony of the Night.

Neku is adorable, and I'm looking forward to seeing you rp him!

Thanks!

i'm game for pre-established CR! karson's always been in band, obsessed with being first chair french horn. he was probably really bossy to everyone and probably gets in trouble a lot because of being a little whinybutt.

ALSO NICE TO MEET YOU MY NAME IS LINDA

ok going to do this from the wrong account since... tagging. 8D

Cool! Neku was on saxophone, probably first chair by the time he got out of middle and then stopped once he did a year marching and hated it. From the looks of it, they're either the same year or Karson might be a year older, but either way Neku would not put up with being bossed around (at least not from seventh grade on XD).

sounds good to me!!!
