[atrb=border,0,true][cs=6][bg=e3e3e3] nowaki ageha YOU REALIZED WHEN YOU LOST YOUR PRECIOUS WINGS YOU ARE NO LONGER FREE TO FLY AT WILL SOAKED IN THE RAIN, YOU DISAPPEARED IN THE DARK OF THE NIGHT - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - AGE, despite what most think he’s only NINETEEN years old, disregarding is semi-formal fashion sense and all. on the other hand, one can always contribute his ‘mature’ looks due to the ever-present scowl on his face. GENDER, it’s quite obvious to any onlooker that he’s of the MALE POPULACE ; trying to get him into girl clothing or any odd stunts of the sort leads to instant death [glares]. OCCUPATION, the young man currently attends at morinozuka high school, tokyo as a HIGH SCHOOL STUDENT. yes, look & behold -- he's been held back a whole year, not that he’s complaining [much]. on a side note he is also works as an elusive BAND MANAGER for “ big bang. ” SOCIAL CLASS, luckily enough for him he lives in a MIDDLE CLASS family, though it’s bordering the higher-end of the lower class status as well. SEXUALITY, BISEXUAL, hands down. he has no problem with dating either gender though he favours males a bit more than females, though it’s all good. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - + ADORE, MUSIC – well, this is a no brainer answer. he’s been influenced with the study of instruments, along with theory, ever since he was five so it’s been part of his life for a long time, not that anyone knows or has been counting the years. he has no favourite artist, those are quite seldom, as he prefers to fall in love with the actual piece or song itself rather than the person -- music was one thing, the artist another. PHOTOGRAPHY – nowaki hates self-portraits or any type of photo with him in it (not that he’s photogenic or anything) but taking pictures of ‘special moments’ or sceneries brings great pleasure to him. he’s never liked filming fun times or occasions because it doesn’t really capture the moment like a picture does. to him, a moment is simply a moment, something you can’t relive but rather relish in. CIGARETTES – he’ll always have a pack or two on his person, in case of emergencies, and at least two working lighters in his bag & pocket. he’s not an addict per se but it’s just one of the many vices he’s taken up during middle school, going into freshman high school year. oh, he’s also a bad role model as well because he doesn’t really care about what age one should start -- if you want to smoke and know the repercussions go ahead, it’s your life anyway. BLOGGING/INSTANT MESSAGING – contrary to his usual stance about net usage, video streaming, social networks & etc he’s quite fond of making blogs or random journals of the heck of it. most of the time he’ll open something up and simply look at the visit count and comments given before closing and opening a new site up -- it's a case of ocd, especially the amount of layouts he has to make to satisfy himself. with ims, on the other hand, he has no problem messaging for hours but with a computer because using his mobile gives him hand cramps. SLEEP – it’s always in his mind, especially during classes, the reason why he’s always yawning. who wouldn’t want to go back home and crawl under their nice (or ruined, if you have a messy room) sheets? no one, that’s who. there are three main facts why he’s always like this: work & homework, his distance from the school, and the fact that he’s part insomniac. - CONDEMN, SHAKESPEARE PLAYS – even if they are classics, one of the english language’s prized works, it’s still no excuse that they are irritating. there are some he likes as he’s actually read some but analyzing them to oblivion and writing essays about them is just a big bore. he prefers short poems or epic poems as opposed to plays -- those grouped musicals are just terrible abominations to the arts. NEON COLOURS – not to be confused with neon lights, him & bright colours just don’t mix well. if one ever stepped foot into his room, or closet for that matter, the lightest colour would be along the lines of white or beige, monotone hues. he uses highlighters for school or work purposes but as an actual article of clothing or item is a rarity. any type of food that looks very bright pink or blue or yellow to him is considered radioactive. CONFUSION – while it’s a given that life is just one obstacle after another having it blow up at one’s face is not, just no. he has no problem deciding for himself or other people but when there’s a lot of choices, all of them good or bad, he can’t help but wonder if someone out there could just go screw the system or make his/her own options out of the freakin’ blue. this was a big problem for him during middle school & high school transfers because he didn’t know where to do and ended up with lousy, though semi-wise, experiences. COCONUT – it’s disgusting, nasty, and just ugh in his opinion. he’s been never fond of the tropical fruit (though he finds the appearance of it interesting) and rarely eats it or drinks the juice. for some inane reason his parents used to always force him to chug at least a glass or two down his throat, whether he liked it or not. SUNLIGHT – this usually signals the beginning of the new day, another day he is not ready to face. he’s always been allergic to sunlight, whether its rays hurting his eyes, burning his skin, further aggravating his pounding head, or just taunting him by saying ‘time to go to school, sucker’ with a [non-existent] grin. oh how he just wants to bash it’s non-existent face one day -- for now he’ll settle glaring at it with bleary, sand-filled eyes. FEARS, the wedding song, or to be more specific: MARRIAGE. he has a big dislike about commitments, much less relationships in general, so never will one see –in a million years- the dark haired male in a wedding suit. he’ll attend ceremonies, no problems, but be a groom in it? yeah, that’s pushing it. his greatest apprehension, when it comes to studies, is FAILURE, something he never tolerates. there is a saying, “ what comes up must come down ” but to him he doesn’t wanna go down, he wants to soar and stay there. finding out that he failed high school was no big shock, it was somewhat noticeable, but there was still a big flinch in his inner-mind about the embarrassment of being left behind. there are very few items nowaki carries on his person but all of them has a type of meaning or memory attached to them especially his RINGS. they’re simplistic in style, being plain bands, and they aren’t for ‘engagements’ or anything but gifts from past friends. he doesn’t really like sharing his life’s story so all you have to know is that you don’t mess with them, lest you want a tonfa to the face. DREAMS, attaining a MUSICAL DEGREE has been a lifelong ambition for the young man from his elementary years. while he may not be able to get masters for a specific instrument he is quite eligible to enroll & graduate with a music theory degree instead. making a NAME FOR BIG BANG would be nice, even if it’s under the title of ‘manager’. he has no problem with the whole set up –in reality he’d much rather be the one playing than taking care of paperwork– so long as the band he’s managing gets somewhere far; he has high hopes for the players, whether he shows it or not. SOARING HIGH in the sky -- not through hallucinogenic substances either. it’s a concept he’s had as a child, always making paper airplanes and all, to be free without restrictions or live life at his own pace. he’d like, sometime in the future, to simply kick back, relax, and watch the days pass by peacefully. it might sound like a monotonous dream but it’s his dream and that’s what matters. HOBBIES, building a GUNDAM MODEL is a monthly ritual for him, whether it be a cheap or expensive type of model. he’s not really picky on the quality of figure but more of the condition, time, and care he puts into each part he places together. of course, the more expensive the model he buys the longer he’ll take to make it absolutely perfect in his eyes. ANALYZING MUSIC has been a practice for him the past ten years, especially classical pieces. whenever he listens to pieces, concertos, or songs he doesn’t look for lyrics (that’s later) but rather the type of instruments presents, the timing, the flow & the feeling of everything woven into harmony. he’s very critical and picky though for the sake of the band he’s willing to lower his standards a tad bit. he looks dangerous, right? you bet yer arse that he is -- he has a room full of shiny metal objects, and not the good ones either. as a WEAPON COLLECTOR nowaki is very proud of his small –and growing- collection of swords, short swords, knives & likes. he himself owns, and carries, a pair of tonfa around with him 24/7 for threatening purposes. be careful, however, because he has been known to raise these metal rods against individuals every now & then. HABITS, while he may not look like the type nowaki can be very spontaneous and BREAK INTO SONG at random & awkward times. he’s done it before during childhood and his ‘actual’ high school years -- for example, in the middle of his history exam he began singing a death march song with bass beats & all. yes, it was quite a shocker but he did get some compliments afterward and a passing grade. with a face like his many usually mistake his initial expression as bored which is, majority of the time, untrue. by being a returning student with a [part-]time job he’s always busy and lacks sleep which is why he’s constantly seen YAWNING in the middle of lessons or assemblies, usually the latter. there are times when he simply passes out in the middle of class, face buried in his notebook, and has to be slapped across the back of his head to be woken up. BREAKING ALARM CLOCKS is a typical event in his home, especially during middle school -- he abhors getting up in the mornings. the condition has calmed down since then though the young man cannot have one month without hurling his clock down to the ground or at the wall, seeing it impact, crush, and break under the pressure of his force and the surface it hits. he’s tried using stress balls to control this urge but it was a big failure since clean up took almost forever. with all the stress he has to put up he has to find another way to vent his anger & frustration, aside from breaking clocks, which is why he SMOKES any chance he has, even during breaks. he doesn’t give a damn if smoking on school grounds is prohibited, he needs the nicotine & asap too. without his one stick per day ritual he will be in quite the foul mood when you meet him – perhaps with a tonfa to the face too. TALENTS, not many, aside from close acquaintances & family, know this but he excels in MUSIC COMPOSITION for most instruments including the piano, guitar, bass & drum. his violin skills are quite rusty but the four mentioned are his main fortes so his advice to the group, every now and then, can be considered legitimate. the suit isn’t just for looks, children, it actually has some purpose to it. while some may seem his as another failure, returning to school for another full year & all, the nowaki is quite FLUENT WITH LANGUAGES, especially english & french, though the latter takes more work than the former. he also knows some italian but it’s been a long time since he’s looked over his notes so it’s a very rusty tongue for him to speak [which is why he never uses it in the first place.] tripping on flat surfaces, jokes. consequently, seeing as how he’s rather fond of music or something in the arts department one can assume he also has some other type of talent in drawing, painting, and the likes -- pft, right. he doesn’t like art in general, aside from music, but he is capable of digital art & photography or anything tech related. aside from music he is a TECH SPECIALIST. he’s no genius, for sure, but he is hardworking enough to be considered knowledgeable in the field. SECRETS, his ability to PLAY PIANO was taken from him at the age of fourteen when his arm was severely wounded with a broken bone. at that time he was supposed to play for a audition but was handicapped, thus crushing his shot at a music scholarship. despite the ordeal he is able to play the piano, at a magnificent level as well, though he rarely does for audiences; simply consider yourself lucky to even see him finishing his ‘secret’ practices. as aforementioned he is a manager of a band therefore he goes by an alias -- nowaki is also known as VICE in the music industry whether for his managing skills or seldom compositions. the origin of the name comes from an old net handle during his ‘incapacitated’ state. it’s also a semi-inside joke within the family because his whole personality is built upon one vice over another. he has the ‘foot-in-mouth’ syndrome, an incurable disease that is well known within the male population. no, really, he is known to be EMOTIONALLY BRAIN-DEAD, or so to speak. there’s no other way to put the condition eloquently because it’s the hard truth. this can be considered as a personality trait but it really isn’t -- he understands people and emotions, yes, but to understand his own is just near impossible for the young man. he doesn’t even know he has a crush on his best friend. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - FIRST how did you come to find forever & ever?

[/i] i found about this ‘phenomenon’ was –and still is- a complete and utter mystery; no jokes either. it might have been due to all those boards in the subway, the flyers on the floor, or the streets -- simple messages that read “ forever & ever. ” it was an interesting title and it spread like wildfire throughout school and the streets, especially with the teens. almost everywhere i glanced someone was accessing the site through their phone -- even some of the teachers were! so, if a mere site can entrance both the young and adult populace then something special must be on that page. the bottom line: all i wanted to know was “ what the hell was going on? ”[/ul][/size][/blockquote][/justify]

SECOND,

what do you consider to be your good points?

[/i] much to list -- not. i guess you could say that i’m an honest guy, even if the truth hurts; i don’t really like baiting people to believing hollow words unless i’m in a terrible mood. generally, i see no point in trying to cover up a big lie because it’ll end up blowing at one’s face anyway, but for petty advice & such saying the truth won’t hurt, unless it’s toward a girl. there’s also the fact that i’m terribly overprotective that i’m [unknowingly] insincere. i have this big paranoia of sorts when it comes to friends, bonds, and especially personal space ; it’s nice to be with other people but to have them too close and up front, suffocating the living lights out of me is unpleasant. in relation, friendly is another word my parents loves to label me as though rarely with my friends -- i was more open with myself as a child but as an adult? not really, though i’m still polite when needed be and the way i show my affections, as some say, is rather ‘messed’ because it’s either through a semi-violent or ‘cool indifferent’ way.

it’s obviously well known by friends & family that i’m very passionate when it comes to certain hobbies, especially music & technology. i’d be more than happy to stay up the whole night tinkering with a layout design or listening and gathering ideas for a possible arrangement for the band (ie. atmosphere, theme, the good old literary techniques.) i’m also seen as an empathetic type of guy when i’m not too busy brooding or trying to stay awake in the middle of the day. not many know this but there was a time where i wanted to study psychiatry since i always found the human mind & emotions to be quite puzzling so i tried understanding people from a distance or based on speech and movement (it’s an ongoing habit of mine and cures boredom every now and then.) finally, i’ve been known to be efficient at my job as a manager along with homework -- i cannot help stretch the fact that i did not fail due to incomplete assignments, i fell ill the whole exam week and couldn’t write it so becoming a returning student was the only option available to me.[/ul]
and what would you consider to be your bad points?

[/color][/b] for the sheer fact that i’m fairly blunt and suffer the ‘foot-in-mouth’ syndrome when strangers talk to me. actually that a lie because i’m just plain rude since i don’t have the patience in the morning. with that being said, temperamental is another negative trait of mine. while i may not really show much emotion during the day (usually it’s fatigue, irritation, or a jester-like quality) one can usually find me in an awful mood in the mornings -- you can ask my alarm clock(s) for proof. oh, there’s also the fact that i posses sarcastic speech when my temper gets the best of me, or i just burst into a string of swears, either real, foreign, or made-up ones. i’d also feel bad if you get caught in one of my glares, unless you deserve it; if it’s the former, well, you might get a jab at the side too.

one of the possible reasons nowaki failed his senior year is because of his unorganized[/b] nature. while his appearance sets up an image/aura of ‘controlled’ or ‘suave’ he is really nothing but as his notes are usually strewn and written about on various surfaces, even his own skin. also, never bother going into his room, specifically his closet since he simply dumps items everywhere and cleans once a month. of course, by no means is he unhygienic he’s simply lethargic in all ways possible, mostly when it comes to uninteresting things. he hates having to do homework and does it at ten pm at night, lazes around in school and work clothes until bed, and would rather starve than getting up to get some food. in the young man’s mind, however, the only reason why he doesn’t move around much is because he needs the energy focused on a more essential task than the one he has or is forced to do. consequently, when his streak of laziness of broken nowaki really means business -- while his nonchalant demeanor entails a carefree attitude behind the mask is a very territorial and possessive creature ready to bare its teeth at anyone and anything. this isn’t due to the fact that he used to have confidence issues (especially when he broke his arm) but the fact that he feared something intangible, invisible to the eye and and must constantly run from that “ something ” out to get him.[/ul][/size][/blockquote][/justify]

THIRD,

what do you look for in a friend, a love interest, a lover or people in general?

[/i] definition would hard since, to me, a ‘ friend ’ can take different shapes & forms. heck some girls call their dryers, of all things, their ‘best friend’. in short, one could say that i believe in individuals more so than the usual groups, hoping that people i meet are dependable & understanding with various situations because being closed off is just a trait i’m iffy with but hey -- beggars can’t be choosers. lovers & interests are different stories, something i’m not privy to discuss quite just yet, though you can pretty much group my response with the “ believing in persons ” argument.[/ul][/size][/blockquote][/justify]

FOURTH,

do you believe in "love at first sight"?

[/i] no, and never in a lifetime. let me reiterate a third time: there’s no bloody way you can love a person with one glance. i find that phrase to be full of bs, total bs (beautiful stories.) in fact if it were true i should have plenty of ‘buddies’ by now. [do i believe in polygamy? perhaps.] on the other hand, it’s the fault of little phrases, like the one above, which makes “ love ” so darned complicated -- it turns matters of the ‘heart’ into something trivial and insignificant, a concept that can be thrown around left & right without a care.[/ul][/size][/blockquote][/justify]

FIFTH,

how do you know you have found "the one"?

[/i] happen either. you see, love & i are not best buds, never were, and i kind of want it to stay that way. there’s nothing wrong with relationships, really, but as it stands i don’t wanna be ‘tied’ down, or so to speak, just yet.[/ul][/size][/blockquote][/justify]

OTHER,

nowaki is japanese-descent but he was born OVERSEAS and raised in the states until he was approximately five years old. he moved back to japan at the age of six or so and returns to america every now and then for vacation or family business -- yes, he has some connections but not a lot, though he’s built some through the online world.

he has been friends with HAKUMI, JUAN & KAZE since forever. okay, that’s a bit exaggerating but he’s been friends with them for a long time; he met juan during day care, hakumi during middle school, and kaze a year or so later. he has always kept in touch with these three during vacation & family business trips/moves (during middle school & freshman year.)
