history
| Childhood | Teenage Years | Adulthood |
| Kallias was born to a pair of nobles in the Undersea. His childhood was a decent one; as normal as a childhood could be for a fey child. It was also free of most of the tragedy that struck the fey. His parents were around for the most part, but when they weren't, he was raised by tutors and others hired with his parents' coin. He was a quiet child, and didn't interact with many children his age. Despite his lack of contact with his peers, he was very happy with the way things were. He was loved, and he loved. | During his teens, he was mostly tutored by those his father and mother hired for his education. His parents grew more distant. They hosted parties and soirees, all of which Kallis tried to hide from. He despised the falseness of it all. He craved something real; someone that wasn't putting on a front for the mass, lips full of honeyed words meant only to please. So he tended to hide away, content in the solitude of the servant's passages, library, and study. His parents at first were relentless in their pursuit of trying to get him to show himself at the parties, but eventually relented. Occasionally, to please them, he would make appearances. But it was not common. | Not a lot has happened for Kallias just yet, save for his mother and father starting to push him more to both attend their parties, and forge connections with fey his age. He wishes to do neither. He is quite content with how things are, and he does not want to ruin all that by letting more fake-faced nobles into his personal life. No thank you. Someone honest for once, please. He has kept up with his studies, and is rather interested in Herbalism. He also has a secret fondness for animals, but he wishes for no one to know that. He doesn't know what someone he doesn't trust could do with that information. |
personality
- Quiet, reserved
- Very creative, artistic
- Introverted to the point where he isn't fond of being around people for long periods of time, especially the nobles. They tend to get on his nerves with their fake smiles and high expectations.
- Tends to keep his thoughts to himself, but loves being able to ramble about what he loves. However, that is not 'proper.' Another reason he despised noble life.
writing sample
Hai flopped onto her brother’s bed, looking over at him. Kaito sat at his desk, in between rounds of one of his new games; she couldn’t remember what this one was called. He was pretty absorbed in leveling up one of his newer characters, one she didn’t know the name of. It wasn’t like she didn’t care about what her brother was interested in, he just went through games too quickly for her to keep track of any of them. The only exception were his favoritesRen was sitting in his own chair beside Kaito’s, watching their older brother. Ren seemed less confused about what was going on than Hai was. He’s probably watched Kaito play this way more than I have.
“What are you playing?” Hai asked Kaito, rolling onto her back. Kaito and Ren now looked like they were hanging from the ceiling, which was pretty funny.
“That new fantasy RPG that came out last week,” Kaito replied absently, eyes still locked on the game. “How was your day?”
“Pretty good, I-”
She was interrupted by her phone going off. Someone texted her? But the only people she texted were Ren and Kaito, and they were both in the same room as her. Though, this wouldn’t be a first for Kaito…
Alexander Sato (Tutoring), the contact read.
Oh, right. He got her number to stay in touch with her while he was tutoring her.
She didn’t even get a chance to read what he said before Kaito was right beside her, trying to see what the text said. Sevens, he was so nosy. But she let him see it, angling the phone so they could both read it.
Good job today. That formula is pretty difficult, and you did well. Same time next week?
“Who’s-...”
He went quiet upon reading the contact name. She sat up so she was sitting cross-legged beside Kaito. Ren peeked back from where he was playing Kaito’s game for him. “What is it?”
He looked up from the screen, meeting her eyes with a furrow in his brow and a slight scowl on his face. “Alexander? Really?”
Her face fell. Why was he disappointed? “What’s wrong with him?”
He pinched the bridge of his nose. “He’s not someone you need to be friends with. Or more than friends. Or anything.”
Scowling, she crossed her arms. Alexander had never come across as cruel or malicious. Maybe a little grumpy sometimes, but he had never been cruel to her. Kaito was just being over-protective, she reasoned. “That’s not an answer.”
“He’s gonna use you for his own gain! He’s totally a low-level cheater who manipulates others to make up for his lack of firepower!” Kaito’s hair turned red at the tips, signifying that he was getting frustrated with her. “He’s not a good person, Hai! He’ll hurt you.”
“I think you’re being unfair to Alex, Kiki.” Ren said, tilting his head at his siblings.
“Yes- I mean no! I’m just-” Kaito paused, trying to choose the right words, probably. “He’s not someone you should get involved with. Seriously.”
“Who are you to talk about people to not get involved with?” Hai narrowed her eyes at her older brother, her fiery hair turning red at the tips, matching her brother’s. Well, they were both somewhat angry now. “With whatever is going on with that Izumi girl.”
Kaito’s hair flared, more reds and orange than before. The tips of his ears were red. He looked a mix of embarrassed and annoyed. He rarely looked at her like that. He rarely got angry at her. Whatever was going on with Izumi, it was really important to him. But she was too far to stop now. In the back of her mind, she was deeply hurt by how angry he looked at her, but her own rage kept her from acknowledging it.
Hai narrowed her eyes. “I get one– one text from Alex, and you tell me to stop. You two aren’t just texting, Kaito. She’s here all the time. And she has a boyfriend. Are you telling me that really all you’re doing is hanging out?”
Ren nodded sagely. “It’s true. I have been invited to several of Kalim’s parties. I see that they care for each other.”
Kaito turned to Ren. “If you’ve been at ‘several of Kalim’s parties’ then you know. You know what he did. You think what we’re doing is wrong? At least I’m not lying to her.”
Hai was taken aback by the look on his face. And Ren. He looked truly stricken.
“I was under the impression that Izumi knew.” Ren said hesitantly.
“She does know.” Kaito says, sighing. “You think that makes it better?”
Hai suddenly felt far out of her depth. Whatever their bond as siblings was, Ren and Kaito were closer. And whatever happened, she couldn’t make up for the fact that they were roommates and she wasn’t, that they were two halves of a student and she wasn’t, and that Kaito brought Ren back and she wasn’t even freaking there.
Ren looked down. “I’ve seen you two,” he said. “When I come in. You don’t look like that with a lot of people.”
His hair cooled down. Kaito’s face was more serious than she was used to. More serious than she could remember seeing him. “I don’t.”
They all sat there in silence for some time. When Kaito looked up to continue the conversation, Hai was gone.
