by Rubyfur (Ruby)

appearance

face claim — Kirito (Sword Art Online)

height — 168cm

Slightly short-sighted, so he wears spectacles when reading or using the computer. As such, he doesn't really wear them in public.

fashion style

Takumi's fashion style is very simple, casual and chic. He goes for comfort above everything else. He also likes camouflage print patterns. He wears flip-flops most of the time when not in his persona as the celebrity, and even so, he doesn't go for any bold fashion statements.

personality

Faithful & Protective: Takumi is very loyal and faithful to his close friends and loved ones, and extremely protective of them as well. He is always willing to do anything for them. Whenever there is a media report regarding his close friends and loved ones, he always speaks fondly of them, though he hates it when the reporters and media bother them because of him. He also doesn't want them to be hurt by gossip. As such, sometimes he can be quite rude to those reporters when they try to invade his privacy.

Outspoken, Straightfoward & Blunt: Both in public and private, Takumi isn't the type of person to mince words. He is outspoken and speaks what is on his mind no matter what, and he doesn't like to beat around the bush and gets straight to the point. At times, he may seem a little insensitive to others, though he doesn't have the intention to hurt anyone by speaking his mind. He thinks not speaking the truth is bothersome and tiring, as one has to make up the lies, and hence doesn't even bother not being straightforward. He doesn't like to take part in media politics, and always declines to comment regarding certain media issues, but if he is forced to comment, he will speak his mind. Growing up in the entertainment industry has allowed him to see the dangerous politics and how fake people can be, and he doesn't want to be the kind of people who are nice on the outside but are actually mean on the inside. Straightforward celebrities are quite rare, which is why the media both loves and hates him.

Charming, Nice & Humorous: Takumi is actually a very charming and charismatic person and can speak very well, and is also a nice and humorous person. He uses his charm in public sometimes to get what he wants, but rarely shows his niceness and humor except towards his family, fans and close friends, because he doesn't feel like the fake people in the media industry deserves it. Most of the time in front of the media or strangers, he keeps to himself and is reserved, sometimes even a bit cold and unfriendly. However, he has a kind heart, so if he sees that someone needs help, he won't ignore that person coldly. He loves to crack jokes with his famiy and friends, and can be extremely lame in his attempts to be funny at times which often makes them facepalm literally, but this a side that only they get to see.

Determined: Being determined is sometimes a good and bad thing for Takumi. He is very persistent if there is something that he wants, though he would not stoop to under-handed means to get it. Nothing much can sway him from his target and goal, not even his family or friends, unless they are able to present valid points to him. As such, he can be quite stubborn sometimes. However, his determination has also allowed him to achieve some things that he really wants in life, such as learning to play the drums and being in a band.

Cautious: As mentioned earlier, growing up in the entertainment industry has shown Takumi how two-faced people can be. As such, no matter whether in the public or private, he is very alert and cautious regarding people. He can be very charming towards strangers, but doesn't make friends easily as he tends to keep them at arm's length until they have really proven that they can be trusted. He is also afraid that people befriend him due to his status as a celebrity, and to make use of that status for their own selfish gain.

background

Takumi's family was actually quite poor when he was young, until he was scouted by a talent agency at the age of 10. Since then, they have been more well off due to the money he was able to bring in as a child actor and model, and subsequently, his younger brother also joined the entertainment industry. His father and mother managed to secure jobs in the industry as well as a photographer and make-up artist respectively. Their family is still not extremely rich, but at least they don't have to worry about paying rent and bills as they did in the past. He also formed a band with his close friends in high school due to his passion for music, which became quite popular in the industry.

family

relation — Ishimaru Kazuma // 40 // Photographer // Hardworking but somewhat demanding and bossy. He tries to be humorous (but really isn't, most of the time) and doesn't really know when to be serious, as such, can make really bad jokes during arguments which makes things worse sometimes, though it is his attempt at trying to lighten things up. He can also be a little hot-tempered. However, he cares deeply for his children, just that he finds it hard to show it. // Takumi has a rather rough relationship with his father, because he feels that he is not very understanding of him and his decisions, and unreasonable at times. Both of them feel that the other person doesn't respect him. They tend to quarrel often due to opposing views, and Takumi once ran away from home for a few days due to a particularly bad quarrel. However, he still loves his father and respects him, and wishes that they'll be able to communicate better.

relation — Matsuo Michiyo // 47 // Make-up Artist // Caring, loving, and really friendly and nice, but can be a little naggy at times. She loves her children a lot and is always worried for them, hence, her nagging stems from there. She is also a very thrifty person, and even though they are better off now, she doesn't take advantage of their increased wealth and is cautious in spending money. // Takumi used to have a very close relationship with his mother, but as he grew older, they started becoming more distant. Recently, her thriftiness has also caused him to be unhappy as he tends to eat a lot, and he doesn't have the money to spend on food when his mother restricts his spending. He also finds her a little unreasonable sometimes when she is just concerned for him. His mother, on the other hand, feels sad that her son is unable to understand her.

relation — Ishimaru Naozumi (Nao) // 17 // Student/Model // Quiet, shy and reserved. He tends to keep to himself, but is very intelligent. He is less outspoken than his brother, and is contented to be viewed as just a normal model by the media, giving politically correct answers to questions unlike his brother. He is an avid video game player, and as such models and acts for video game advertisements. // Nao (called by his family) and Takumi share a very close sibling relationship. Takumi often teases his younger brother, but Nao never gets offended because he understands his brother's heart. Takumi is also very proud of his younger brother, though he feels that at times, his parents dote on Nao more and are biased towards him. However, Takumi is never jealous of his brother, and loves him greatly. He would protect him from whatever harm. At the same time, Nao is also defensive of his older brother, and would even stand on his side when Takumi is in an argument with their parents.

friends

Best Guy Friend — Sakamoto Kaito // 21 // Student // Quiet and a little reserved, but can also be very friendly. He is very compassionate and a very good listener, and likes to help other people out. // Takumi and Kaito are childhood friends from when they were only 4 or 5 years old, and hence, they are very close to each other and trust each other greatly. He has a younger brother whom Takumi is also friends with.

Close Friend/Bandmate — Yaguchi Kazuma // 21 // Student/Musician // Friendly, humorous and sometimes a little loud and talkative. However, he has a very kind and warm heart, and extremely willing to help others in need. He doesn't hide his true image, much like Takumi, and many fans like him because of his honest and funny nature. // He is Takumi's closest friend in the band, and plays the bass, which he also taught Takumi. They are partners-in-crime sometimes, and tend to make their other bandmates facepalm with their jokes and antics.

Best Girl Friend — Ruby Farelia (Love Plotline) // 20 // Student // Loyal, straightforward, calm, critical, insecure. (You know where to get the detailed personality xD) // Takumi and Ruby are also childhood friends, though they didn't get to know each other as early as he and Kaito did. They met when he was around the age of 8 (up to you to decide how, but I was thinking something along the lines of showing their poverty as a common thing, unless you want me to come up with it!), and he felt the need to protect her as a little sister. As such, he was almost always there for her, being her sparring partner, or listener, or elder brother, whatever she needed. He also teases her a lot, and vice versa. They can bicker over the most trivial of things, yet unanimously agree on others. They also seem to have a rather special connection, and seem to be able to read each other's minds. However, due to the trouble the Digimon games has brought to her family, and Takumi being the face of those games, both of them have become a little more distant to each other, with Ruby somewhat blaming Takumi, and the latter being helpless as to how he can do anything. Ruby also thought that he pitied her family and saw them as helpless when he offered financial help, which only drove them further apart. He thought that he always treated her as a younger sister, but perhaps there's something more, which he realised after she became more distant to him~

crest of Friendship

Digimon — Gabumon

Digimon's personality — Gabumon is very playful and humorous most of the times, though he can be serious if there is a need to be. At times, he can actually give good advice on accident, not even knowing that he did. However, he would very much prefer to remain playful and optimistic no matter the situation, and sometimes, this might seem a little insensitive to others. He loves to crack jokes which can be extremely lame (like his partner).

Relationship With character & DIGIMON — Takumi and Gabumon get along extremely well due to their similar personalities. Even if other people don't get their lame jokes, they are always able to understand each other, so most of the time, the two of them are rolling on the floor laughing their heads off while the rest look at them like they have gone crazy. Gabumon gives Takumi good advice sometimes unknowingly too, and is always able to cheer him up due to his optimisim. Takumi views Gabumon as a precious friend, and not just as a pet, and is also protective and caring of him.

last comment — I hope you like my second character! It's honestly my first time creating a male character, so I hope he's realistic enough ><

I actually wanted to include the names of the rest of his band as well but you said only to write those that are important so I only put in his closest friend in the band. Let me know if you want me to include the rest!

Just a short explanation of the song, although it's titled First Love, I just feel that the whole atmosphere of the song is appropriate for Takumi because it's like when he's reflecting on life and everything and it's kind of bittersweet because he knows there are both good and bad things in life.

scene requests —
// Takumi and Ruby's families being family friends since they are childhood friends and both their fathers are working as photographers so they know each other (and approve of Ruby and Takumi being with each other even if they aren't together yet)
// Ruby being angry at Takumi for (sort of) causing her family to be in their current situation, and Takumi offering financial help only to be rejected angrily
// Being recognized by the other Digidestined as the face of the Digimon games, but being indifferent about it, even being cold to them because he doesn't trust them
// If the sincerity plotline is a female, then maybe Ruby gets sort of jealous that she clings onto Takumi and he tries to explain xD If it is a male, Takumi treats him like another younger brother, and maybe Nao gets jealous~
// Maybe a scene where he disses the media haha.
