[OOC] App Goes Here
Character: Sohma Kyou
Series: Fruits Basket (manga)
Age: 16
Canon: Fruits Basket is a touching tale of friendship, sacrifice, personal growth, and transforming into cute animals. When Honda Tohru camps out on Sohma property some time after losing her mother, she finds herself drawn into the chaos and uncertainty that surrounds the family -- most of all those Sohmas who are bound by the Curse of the Zodiac. Sohma Kyou is cursed by the spirit of the Cat, and whenever he is hugged by a female, he becomes a cat.
For missing the banquet, the Cat was cast out from the Zodiac, and so too is Kyou cast out and looked down on by much of the Sohma clan. Kyou is easily provoked to anger, and initially he acts gruff and hostile toward everyone -- especially Yuki, the Rat, who he blames for his troubles. But as Tohru befriends Kyou and shows him kindness, he begins to reveal a kinder (though awkward) side. Kyou likes fish, milk, and training in martial arts with Kazuma (his teacher and adoptive father); he dislikes leeks, rain, and the ocean. And thanks to his curse, cats are extremely fond of him, to the point of draping themselves over him during class.
I'm apping Kyou from midway through the manga, probably around volume 13 or so (although I don't mind shifting one way or another, depending on the other FB cast members).
Sample Post:
I'm cold, I'm wet, and I think something's following me. Stupid Tohru, getting dragged out to some freaky summer camp. Stupid Shigure and that damn stupid Yuki, getting themselves lost looking for her. Or whatever the hell that damn dog is doing out here, I don't even think I wanna know. So now I have to come take care of everything! Like those cousins of mine would lift a finger if I went missing.
Damn it, and now I'm lost! They gave me a "pamphlet" on the way in, but it's not even... It reads like Shigure's dumb novels, for crying out loud. not that I'm admitting to ever reading any of those "Lore groaned as his putrefying soulmate lovingly sank his teeth into --" Goes on like that for twenty pages! Guess I'll just have to figure it out as I go. At least the zombies are easy enough to handle -- agh, get off my leg! There's no brains there anyway, you idiot corpse! And... that's not eating you're trying to do, is it. DIE!
Ugh, now there's zombie flesh all over my pants! And those bushes keep rustling -- I swear there's something following me! Geez, Tohru better be safe when I finally find her. That girl is so -- aw, man, I can just see her now. "You want my brains? I don't know... but you seem so hungry... I suppose I could let you have just a bit, if it would make you feel better..."
Okay, calm down, Kyou. You're overreacting. She's not really the type to do something that selflessly stupid... Well, whatever! I'm just gonna go in, get Tohru, maybe the dog and rat if I feel like it, then out. I'm not staying here any longer than I -- there's that rustling again! That tears it! Whoever you are, come on out! I'm not letting you make fun of me any...
... Are those zombie cats?! Shoo, get lost! No, I don't want to be friends! And I don't want a half-eaten toucan!
I hate this place!
