appearance : Suzuki Rikuto is quite pretty. Seriously, that's how he describes himself. Pretty. Fairly feminine features, soft and pale skin, perfectly shaped eyes- At least, that's how he feels. He keeps his hair and skin absolutely wonderfully soft and healthy with skin care products, and keeps his body in tip-top shape. He's even earned himself some light abs, which he's absolutely and totally proud of. His eyes are a deep, perfect brown that really can enrapture anyone he pleases- Which he does a lot. Rikuto finds his most attractive feature to be his throat- It's easily kiss-able and bite-able, perfect to seduce. With perfectly plump lips and facial fetures that perfectly compliment each other, he's one catch. Seriously, he looks as close to perfection as possible. (This is literally how Rikuto thinks about himself, I swear.)
style : y. Show off his body. The tightest skinny jeans you can buy. Low-cut shirts. y- makeup. He dresses like he's ready to you, and, you know, if you're up to it, so is he. Seriously, he doesn't really care about who you are or your personality, what you're into- So long as your looks can match up to his, he's good. Ripped skinny jeans are his absolute favorite, and, hell, he's definitely not opposed to boots. When he goes to bed, it's normally no clothes. Hes not opposed to walking around the dorm when there aren't any schedules. But if he has to wear some, he normally wears V-necks and sweatpants. For formal, he lets others decide.
why am i like this? Who cares!
traits : (+) Confident, easy-going, intuitive, admirable, charismatic, decisive (=) Maternal, freethinking (-) Narcissistic, careless, superficial, envious, mannerless, dishonest
personality :
Suzuki Rikuto is many things, but careful is not one of them. He's so unbelieveably careless- He doesn't think before he says anything, and he does every action carelessly, not thinking about any consequences or how his actions could affect anyone. His dishonesty is an example of this- Rikuto has no problem lying to get him where he needs to be, or to make something go this way. Rikuto sees no problem in those kinds of actions, because he doesn't care ot think about it.
Even so, he's a very confident and admirable guy. He gives off an air of upmost confidence, and he really is. Rikuto finds no place to doubt himself, and this is what makes people like him. His confidence gives your own a boost just by being near him. He feels like someone to admire and look up to, and mostly, he is. But this confidence definitely makes way for narcissistic behaviors. He's overly confident, a lot of the time, and this can definitely be a big annoyance.
Rikuto's very superficial in many ways, and normally finds value in looks and status- Just like his parents. Growing up in a world that was full of lies and superficial wishes, you become that kind of person most of the time, and Rikuto really did. He embraced this kind of life style. He doesn't treat you based on your looks, but he secretly judges you by that kind of standard. But he's a very easy-going person once you get close to him. Really, he's a big teddy bear- One with a lot of charisma.
This guy has a really charismatic personality- Because of his abundance of confidence, he exudes that admirable feeling that overall creates a feeling of charisma. He's quite freethinking, and doesn't let social stigmas or what's "right" and "wrong" affect his thoughts. When it comes to LGBTQ+, who cares? It's not like they're sleeping with homophobes or anything. He's got a free mind, that is rarely weighed down with sad thoughts. But this freethinking gets him into trouble. Why?
Rikuto is mannerless, at this point. Even though he was raised with class, he rarely behaves the way someone his age should. And he's decisive- Where others are unsure on how to go about a situation, or what to wear, or how to react, this guy's got everything down. He doesn't hesitate to follow directions (Unless he knows they're wrong), makes choices for himself with ease, and really just knows how to decide.
His most welcomes trait is his intuity. This guy? He's got the absolute best gut feeling you could possibly ask for. That's why he's so decisive. He's always the first to know when there's something up with the members- This has to do with his parental feelings. Rikuto can easily be described as maternal, because he easily mother hens the members and worries for them all the time.
background : Suzuki emiko was married to Jang Hyeon and bore a son- Suzuki Haruto. After roughly a year later she bore another child, another boy to her favorite lover- Furukawa Akihiro. Upon finding out about her second pregnancy, she took a "vacation" to Sapporo, where she stayed until the child was born. He was named Suzuki Rikuto, as Emiko followed her pattern of -uto. She had always found such names cute. Emiko was well known for being faithless to her husband, and having no good intentions for her oldest. Rikuto, however, she found herself having some maternal feelings for.
In Rikuto's childhood, his mother was never around much. She would visit a few times every few months- Maybe once or twice, a total of roughly six or seven times a year. Rikuto never minded this much, as he enjoyed his time alone with his dad. Growing up, he did pretty well in school- Average, really- And he was well-liked. He did his chores and chille out, and nothing significant really happened, until his father approached him one day and said that were moving in with his mother. Why? Because his mother had been married, and her husband moved to Korea.
Rikuto didn't mind this at all- In fact, it made sense, her constant absence-He was fine with that. What he wasn't fine with was leaving his school, with leaving his friends and his life. Still, he up and left Tokyo on the shoort notice, and moved to Kyoto around age eleven. When he learnt of the reason his father's husband and his brother had left, it concerned him. He was terrified, but his mother was strangely kind and motherly. Rikuto ignored the growing fear and treid to become a good son for his mother. Emiko taught him to be suave, to trick people and use his looks to his advantage. What she didn't teach him was manners, but who needed thsoe when you did great in school and had new friends?
Rikuto found himself freaking out after a party when he was sixteen. Why? Because he had gotten super drunk and made out with a guy. And it was definitely more appealing than making out with a girl. After he panicked to his closest friend in the world, Seyeon, she told him very bluntly and simply; "You don't like kissing girls. You like kissing guys. You're gay." This, obviously, didn't sit over with Rikuto well, so he kept it from his afmily, but after a few months, he started to embrace this new-found side of himself, and started to act upon those feelings. He began to sleep around, and was known in his school as a mega player. Atfter high school, Seyeon and Rikuto had started a tentative, "platonic" relationship, platonic on the sense that they had no emotional attatchment, just that they would please each other ually to the best of their abilities.
They moved to seoul, South Korea where Rikuto's brother had. Why? Because Rikuto was determined to meet his bother, to make sure his hyung was okay and doing well, to befriend him. He hired a private investigator who was able to uncover that Haruto was training at YG. Rikuto started to take vocal lessons to clean up his singing (He hadn't really sung in a few years, but he knew he had a great voice), but before he could audition for YG, Haruto moved to Saseum. Around this time, he and Seyeon broke up and got separate apartments. One audition later, Rikuto was in as well. He began to train, and got as close with his brother as he can. Still, he hasn't told Haruto the truth, and he doesn't plan to.

family :
mom | Suzuki Emiko | 46 | N/A | cold, unfaithful, charming, charismatic | Emiko has really treied to become a caring mom- But of course that caring mom figure comes with teachings of coldness and valuing yourself way too much, and others way too little. Rikuto still doesn't ereally like his mom, she still scares him a bit. He was eternally glad to move away from Japan, away from her.
Dad | Furukawa Akihiro (FC: Yutaka Takenouchi) | 47 | Accountant | Busy, stressed, hard-working, intelligent | Where there used to be a very close relaitonship, there is now only a hole, a shell of what used to be. Akihiro used to be fuch more supporting and caring of his son, but after moving in with Emiko, things changed. They distanced, and no logner could understand each other. They spent less and less time together, and now? It's like they barely know each other at all.
Unknowing Older Half-Brother | Suzuki Haruto | 22 | Saseum trainee | Creative, charming, dramatic, worrier | To be hoenst, Haruto is kind of an idiot for not being suspicious of Rikuto- A very similar looking boy, just a year younger from Japan with the same last name and a very insistant way of calling ihm Hyung. But Haruto, being Haruto, ignored all of these and just accepted Rikuto into his life. oh, did I mention the similar names? Yeah. Rikuto absoutely adores and looks up to Haruto like no one else. Haruto is his absolute hero and he loves him more than anything (Besides Minho, maybe). He's always insisting that they hang out, that they stay the night at the other's place, blah blah blah. Rikuto's only goal is to get closer with Haruto.misaki it
friends :
Best friend + Sunbae + Noona + Crush | Park Hyemi | 22 | Idol (Sugar) | Caring, motherly, stubborn, shy | Holy hell. Within the last two months at Saseum, Hyemi and Rikuto have become best friends. Hyemi really takes care of him well, and this has caused his small crush on her. He becomes a blushing, adorable mess around her but really he knows nothing will come of it. He tries to look cool and strong in front of his "Hyebooty Noona-" and she really hates that nickname, by the way. They've become really close friends, the best, and they share everything. Hyemi is the only one who knows Haruto is his hyung.
Ex-girlfriend + Secret baby Momma + Close friend | Kim Seyeon (FC: Park Shin Hye) | 20 | Barista | Warm, cheerful, tired, stressed. Oh, what a secret she is keeping. After her breakup with Rikuto, she found out she was pregnant with a baby girl. But you know what? She knew that she couldn't interrupt the reason they moved to Korea, to find his brother and support him. She lied when he found out she was carrying a baby, and said it was someone else's, someone she had a one-night stand with. If only he knew. Everything would change. That's why she'll never tell.

others :
Sunbae+ rival? + On Hyung's most hated (?) list | Wang Alei | 23 | Idol (Spice) | Charismatic, witty, blunt, tactless. If it weren't for Haruto, Alei and Rikuto would actually get along greatly. Honestly? They should be best friends. But since Haruto likes to talk about Alei, so Rikuto must as well. He likes to give her dirty looks and be a general when they're with people, but when they're alone, they're totally in-tune with each other. They honestly get along well.
i wanna be like that Hyung. My hyung.
stage name : Riku (Shortening of his name)
persona : The y Vocalist
position : Lead vocal, dancer, visual of F[i]re
fanclub : Cherries (He constantly talks about how much he loves cherries on ice cream sundaes, and thus the name was created)
talent twin(s) : Suho of EXO
trainee years : two months (Saseum. Techinically he was training for about ten months, but those other eight months weren't with a company)
TRAINEE life : Um...Easy? Rikuto really didn't have a hard time in the slightest at saseum. He did his absolute best to get closer to Haruto (Wich he succeeded with pretty well), and he was liked by many for his personable attitude. He was favored by Choi Junwoo, for a few reasons- One, Rikuto loves Junwoo to death because he seems really cool, two, Rikuto follows his directions well, and three, Rikuto improved the most vocally out of the boys under Junwoo's training. Rikuto reallty never had anything significant happen within his time as a trainee.
predebut : N/A
scandals :
F[i]re's Riku Involved in Scandal! | November 2016 | Riku is seen sneaking out of an unknown girl's house at around three A.M., a suspicious time. When later that day at the airport he is spotted with hickeys, rumors start. Untrue, those hickeys were from Minho, he was visiting Seyeon. Untrue.
Riku of F[I]re Leaving Saseum? | December 2016 | Honestly? This was almost true. Rikuto never actually wanted to be an idol, and he was starting to regret his choice of becoming a trainee to get to know his brother. He could have just approached him, told him the truth- Which Rikuto is forever too afraid to tell Haruto now- he could have avoided all of this awful dieting, the lack of sleep and the awful schedules and the god damned scandals. It's only after he breaks down to Minho and Haruto when the three are all at Rikuto's apartment that he realizes that he honestly enjoys what he does. So in the end he gets rid of the idea of quitting, so techinically untrue. He does hand-write a letter to the fans, consisting of an apology and hoping that his Cherries and [I]vies will continue to support him.
~and literally a trillion more ebcause he's a troublesome guy~
i dreamed of a romance movie. Yesss.
love interest : Choi Minho (SHINee)
backup love interest : KIM JONGHYUN YOU BRAT.
personality : Choi Minho is most often described as a reserved, competetive gentleman- And this is mostly true. It's not so much that he's reserved- Minho is very respectful, and thus he tries his best to give everyone their turn to speak, and often he gets lost in the background. It's very true that he's competitive, though- He hates to lose, so he does everything he can to insure that he doesn't. Minho lives and breathes masculinity and athleticism, and I can assue you, he's just as fabulous as he sounds. When he's completely comfortable, though, he lets go and let's himself be cute and loveable like he really is. But with all of this comes his bad sides. Minho really is too selfless. He doesn't think of himself, and always lets others get the attention he deserves and needs. He doesn't think of himself and often ignores his health to show fans and loved ones a strong, good side of him. Minho can't help but hide his feelings, because idols are meant to be perfect. He indulges people too much, and gives the, all that they want.
background : Technically, they haven't even met yet, but they are aware of each other. Why? Because ever since Rikuto moved into his own apartment, he's been going to the very same cafe that Choi Minho has for a long while. Both are extremely aware of the attractive stranger who sits just a few tables over, sipping on their drink and eating whatever food they order for that day. Every day for a few months, they repeat the same cycle of staring when the other sin't, and looking away, embarassed, when caught. Neither have appraoched the other. Rikuto hasn't apprached because, well, there's a ing idol staring at me, let me bask in this absolute awesomeness, and for Minho- What the he's too pretty I can't even do anything. It's horribly awkward and endearing.
relationship : Currently? Strangers. But only a few months after they meet, they start a tentative relationship. Why? Well, because they're both undeniabley attracted to each other, and both have been searching for a relaitonship since their last one ended. Minho doesn't mind that Rikuto's slept around in the past (They just have to be careful), and does his best to understand Rikuto- He's kind of a complicated kid, you know? But Minho embraces this about him, which is literally Rikuto's dream. They're pretty cute together- Rikuto is an absolute tsundere around Minho, which embarasses him even more. Minho's like a huge security blanket- He makes Rikuto feel safe and loved and adored and everything he's wanted. It's amazing, how well they look and go together. Something that Rikuto constantly squeals about is how his and Minho's hand literally fit perfectly together. Minho can't lie, he likes it too. Rikuto has ahabit of torturing himself by watching Minho's dramas and them dying when Minho and his love interest get too close. When they kiss, Rikuto stubbornly kisses Minho the next time he sees the older, just to confirm that, yes, he's totally in love with me and not them. Minho finds it to be endearing. Most of the time they end up having right after. Honestly, they have a lot. Obviously Rikuto is the bottom- Or Uke, in his native term. They often throw aegyo at each other just to see the other smile and laugh. They're always visiting each other's dorms, going out to eat, or just chilling wherever, They're a couple made to last.
everything is so awkward
comments : Iamsosorryallmyloveinterest'sareSHINeeI'mSHINeetrash. I'd say that this is a stretch, but actually considering how much their mom slept around, it's atually pretty reasonable. BUT YO. He was originally supposed to be quiet and calm, pretty serious- I think you can see how well that turned out. XP And I wanted a Japanese faceclaim but DAMN it didn't work. The background was sixty million times better and twice as detailed before I lost it.
scene request(s) : I'll fill this out later~ <33
