Kirishima Kano

Kano:
-is vaguely around 16, it's unspecified because she's an eroge heroine
-easily attaches to anyone who gives her attention, and craves affection
-still feels guilty about it because she thinks she's nothing but trouble since her birth directly led to her parents' deaths, her family's poverty, and her sister giving up on her dreams, yet her sister still puts Kano first at her own expense
-will pretend she was just joking when the other person looks skeptical or confused
-is very gullible and naïve
-is also desperate, half because she craves affection, half because she's actually convinced that she can get magic powers upon becoming an adult and she at some point took this as quote-unquote "becoming an adult"
-may or may not be able to talk to animals, she says she can but does not count this as magic
-has a vague "health problem" that she insists is just anemia and frequent blackouts and says there's nothing to worry about. Her sister has been working hopelessly to find a cure. spoilers, cw: asphyxiation, cutting, suicide attempt She's actually possessed by a fragment of a ghost haunting an ancient artifact she touched once, who takes over her body to mindlessly relive her last moments (which may involve trying to choke you or slash her wrist with the nearest sharp object). In canon, either she gets reunited with the ancient feather and magic is used to help the ghost (Shiraho) tell her story and leave, or she just gets left that way. While her usual canonpoint is an ending where she stays like this, cures are welcome. I will keep the cw-worthy stuff offscreen and out of threads unless you give the okay.
-as the kanji of her name indicates, she wants to make other people happy more than anything else

In memes I default to Kano having run away from home after the route split favoured one of the other girls, unless a different canonpoint is specified, and will generally AU into your setting or a blended one.

I should have done this when I was actually going through her canon, but the cast of The Hunger Games just did their own posts like this, so better late than never... aha. orz

AIR, while not as full of hot buttons as other canons with which Kano shares her game, does cover a number of sensitive topics, including: suicide (attempted and successful), murder, disownment, amnesia, abandonment, and debilitating illness culminating in the death of a teenage girl. It is also based on an eroge, but I've taken Kano from the anime, which is completely clean and follows the story path of another haremette rather than Kano.

Comment here to tell me whether or not you're okay with Kano mentioning these things to your character. Canon is over, so it shouldn't be that much of a problem, but the events of the past summer have left enough of an effect on her that she won't just pretend it never happened.

[In keeping with the virus, a very small Kano is sitting on her laptop, waving up at the camera, and has built a blanket fort out of a blue strawberry-print cleaning cloth. She shrugs.]

So, uh. Thanks for making everything interesting, community, but I don't really think I can go to class like this without a major risk of getting stepped on.

...Think I should try anyway?

Do you ever see something that reminds you of something important, even though it's stupid? Like a name in a totally different context.

I dunno. In completely unrelated news, it's a brand new school year and it's even harder to pretend that I actually know what to do with my life. My classes are all kinds of things and still ridiculously hard. I swear I'm moving to Hikarizaka.

If you ever thought you should probably go find a girlfriend or boyfriend or whatever-friend in the same place you'd go buy a used lobster trap, this is why you probably shouldn't.

I've been laughing for hours.

(Link is nsfw yet highly hilarious.)

...Thanks, internet. Thanks.

Geez, everyone disappears, don't they?

...If you can still hear me where you are, I want to apologize for everything. But you wouldn't want that, huh? You got on my case enough about that before.

So... I guess I'll say that I'm going to keep living, like you wanted. Maybe I'll see you again someday. I'll try to. A couple of months for me was a thousand years to you before, so maybe it's my turn. Heh, I'm sounding like I'm going to live a thousand years. I probably would have been happy with that. Maybe I'd live until we had space colonies, and I could go live on the moon or something. That might be fun.

...Oh, yeah. You might not even remember me.

But hey, if you don't... just know that you were my best friend, okay? Seriously. Even more than Potato, and it takes a lot to dethrone him, considering he was my only friend for about forever.

If I do have to go a thousand years without seeing you, I guess it's only fair. Maybe to you it'll be a couple of months this time.

So, uh, if you see this? Thanks for everything. I hope I did something worthwhile for you, too.

The universe is going to pot.

Who came up with that saying, anyway? It sounds stupid. I'm just imagining this flower pot with a bunch of people stuffed into it, not talking to each other and falling off somebody's windowsill.

So my awesome eternal rival is back and doesn't remember me. On top of that, his eternal rival, who isn't really awesome at all and is actually kinda creepy, is back and from the future and probably doesn't remember me, either.

This community is kinda confusing. I'm not sure whether I dodged a bullet or not.
