Ritsuka is an outgoing person, if rather odd. He's honest with people, blunt and charming in a weird sort of way. He doesn't take shit and he stands up for himself without a problem, and he definitely stands up for his friends. He doesn't like people messing with those he cares about, and he'll do what he can to ensure it stops, be it manipulation, underhanded tactics, or jumping them. He's clever, bright, and sharp-tongued. He likes teasing his friends, but it's all in good fun. He's friendly, but not overly so. He enjoys a variety of people and doesn't really stick to one group. He can skip around to preps, to jocks, to goths, to scene kids, all in a span of a few minutes. He goes by his own path and doesn't really give a shit if you have anything bad to say about it.[/style]

However, Ritsuka is extremely blunt and rather crude. He doesn't understand why people are so touchy about some sensitive subjects, like sex, and talks about it blatantly. He has a mouth on him, and he's extremely sarcastic and rather pessimistic. Though he usually works to get along with people, he draws the line at some, and he goes about his way of insulting them to their faces, behind their backs, and not really caring, at least when it's returned. If he's insulted, he'll insult back. If he's punched, he'll punch back. He's not the type to get bullied, and isn't usually the bullying type.. If he makes you cry when you started it, it's all fair.[/style]

Although Ritsuka talks about sex like he's had it, he mostly just knows what he's read in mangas, fanfictions, saw in animes, combined with his own vivid imagination. He hasn't actually kissed anyone, either, but he says he's done more than kiss, even goes so far as to say he's had sex with two people, and keeps any answers about that short and frank, or just extremely uncomfortable so people stop asking. Frankly, he's not exactly the romantic type. Romantic gestures are lost on him, and he's surprisingly oblivious to flirtation. To those who are sluts, he makes an effort to cockblock them for kicks and giggles. He's stubborn, abrasive, and certain of himself. Good luck handling him.[/style]

His grades are above average, but below excellent, and he's a good worker, if a procrastinator. He lives with his single dad and has three older siblings that live in the city, one brother, two sisters, and one little brother that's in junior high school, but he lives with his mother in Ireland. Ritsuka works in an ice cream parlor.. so.. boss, I guess? idk c:[/style]

BASIL

Basil loves meeting people, now matter how weird they may or may not act. Basil usually gravitates towards other outgoing people like Ristuka so I can see him being some sort of friend with the redhead. Though I don't think it would go smoothly since Ristuka is really pessimistic while Basil is the opposite. ijustmakesmelaughputtingoppositesnexttoeachtoehr but uh, they don't have to be super tight but at least acquaintaces. Also Basil would probably spook him at some point so would he return the surprise attacks? theycouldbelikeweirdjumpingrivalsorsomething... hopethiswasok ; 7;

♔ yoite&ritsuka
student council buddies o/ seriously, though, their personalities are somewhat similar, and i can see them oscillating between being semi-telepathic buds to bitter rivals. yoite would definitely enjoy trading barbs with ritsuka, and could possibly look up to him as a sort of 'big brother/role model' in the school - not that he'd admit it, of course.

[ritsuka saito]

basil &&& ritsuka

Haha! Spooking buddies! That sounds adorable.. Although Ritsuka would hate his optimism, he probably wouldn't bother with it unless he was in a bad mood, then he'd argue his pessimistic point to the grave. That being said, he'd find him naive and simple, but he'd enjoy being around him, so maybe casual friends? He'd love to scare him, too x3 that sounds hilarious to me C:

yoite &&& ritsuka

Student Council buddies, whoop whoop! I think this is the first time Ritsuka has had an older-brother sort of thing, where he's the older brother... So I have to snag this and call it happy :D He'd be entertained by Yoite, and since they're similar, he wouldn't feel like he has to explain too much about how he is. Yoite is only an inch shorter than he is, but he'd probably end up trying to noogie him in the hallways.

[yoite sekigawa]

♔ yoite&jaime
AHAHAH RITSUKA, WHY SO CUTE <33 yoite would be all "senpai, don't be daft. you're too short to give me a proper noogie." aaaah their interactions will be adorable ♥

[ichirokato]

ritsuka and ichiro: Oh goodness. On the one hand they should get along because Ichiro is a goody-two-shoes who would want to respect his officers, but on the other hand he'd freak out every time they exchanged words. Being kind of a prude Ichiro would be like "STOP TALKING OF SUCH FILTH" and "THIS IS NO WAY TO ACT". He'd get a little, ahem, mortified by that kind of casual talk.

[ritsuka saito]

ichiro &&& ritsuka

omfg... you have no idea how much Ritsuka would troll this poor boy. He'd say blatantly rude things just to mess with him and make him as uncomfortable as he possibly could. He never said he was a nice person, after all <u< He'd adore him for that amusement, and he'd respect his intelligence.. But seriously, he'd try to taint him somehow, get him to say something rude or something. I think he gets off on ruining people that way. He'd mack on him, too--well, he'd threaten to.. see what happens.

[ichirokato]

ritsuka and ichiro: ahhhh haha... time to play "Get The Goody-Goody to swear"! It'd be fun to see them interact. Should I start a thread?

[ritsuka saito]

ichiro &&& ritsuka

yes 8D I would love that~

[TRISTAN TORRES]

Ritsuka and Tristan can make good friends. Tristan wouldn't mean the teasing because he will most likely be oblivious to most of it. I think they could relate especially since Tristan havn't told his parents that he's gay, but his siblings know.They can know each other from the football team since the two participate on the team together. After practice, maybe they can frequently go get candy and ice cream to munch on.Tristan is half Greece and half Spanish. He speaks English, Spanish, Greek, and Japanese. I saw that Ritsuka loves languages. Tristan wouldn't mind teaching him any of the languages that he knows. I ready think that the two getting along well. I can imagine that Tristan would also crush on Ritsuka, especially since they have a lot in common. I will leave the ball in your court as to whether Ritsuka could learn to like Tristan back or it becomes a one-side thing. Add? Subtract? Multiply? Divide?

[ritsuka saito]

itristan &&& ritsuka

Ritsuka is in awe with all these languages, and would love to learn bits and pieces of them, but he'd probably get too distracted to learn more than a few sayings and words. He'd appreciate that he didn't mind the teasing.. or.. didn't realize it xD As for the crush, Ritsuka is also fairly oblivious to things like that, so unless Tristan told him himself, he wouldn't even know, or notice, or anything, mostly because he doesn't recognize people could actually like him. However, I think Tristan is too, well, to put it simply, nice for Ritsuka to like in return. He doesn't usually fall for nice people. c':

[TRISTAN TORRES]

Hmmm, I'm fine with a one-sided crush. Tristan wouldn't probably tell him. But I do love the idea of Tristan trying toteach him, even if he knows bits and pieces.
