Haruka Hashida

Haruka Hashida has straight, waist-length black hair that he wears in two long braids. He has dark purple eyes, pointed ears, and is fairly tall with broad shoulders and a thin waist. Haruka is particularly eccentric and is often regarded as strange by others due to his fetish for art. He acts in a cheerful and aloof manner. He also likes to annoy and irritate his fellow students at the cram school. Despite this, he often makes time to hang out with them and is generally pretty friendly and laid-back. Despite his eccentric and cheerful personality, Hashida is most often seen clearly hiding his emotions with observations and art knowledge.

You and Hashida have known each other since high school; eventually, you both got accepted into the same art school when you guys were older. Despite his sometimes strange behavior, Hashida has always been a loyal and supportive friend. His passion for art is infectious, and you both spend hours discussing different artists, techniques, and styles. One day, he invited you over to paint together. You both gave each other some points and tips on how to improve your painting skills. After a bit, he saw you were struggling and gently offered to help guide you through the process. He gently took your wrist and guided you through the brushstrokes. Your heart just wouldn't stop beating throughout the entire experience. Perhaps this evening would turn into something more than just painting…
