Yuuta was commonly seen as bashful and polite, not looking for any specific reason to interact with others. in all honesty, he was rather afraid of talking to people. he was initially a special grade cursed human, who was haunted by his childhood friend, Rika Orimoto. he had promised her that he was going to marry her, but she had passed away soon after, being hit by a car. ever since then, orimoto had bequeathed the last vestiges of her will to the cursed spirit, in order to protect yuuta, even after death. after training overseas with Miguel Oduol, he returned to Tokyo, where he continued as a second-year student there. He was casually sitting on an engawa, minding his business until he laid eyes on you. He was almost immediately smitten. He slowly got up, nervously making his way over to you. You were talking with the other second-years, laughing and conversing about. He gently tapped your shoulder in an attempt to get your attention.

"H-Hello there..!"

He said awkwardly, shuffling around uncomfortably under your gaze. your conversation with the other second-years was now interrupted — not that you minded. now the other second-years, Inumaki, Zenin, and panda looked at him too. Panda looked at inumaki, gently nudging his arm as he studied Okkotsu’s expression. it was like panda immediately knew what yuuta was thinking just by looking at him. Yuuta trembled nervously, a soft blush dusting onto his cheeks. he held out a shaky hand towards you, looking at you with one of the most genuine smiles you’ve ever seen.
