❖ Biography // Mari was born the middle child of her siblings, Lizette and Charles. Her father is the head of a leading sweets company and her mother is the head of a famous fashion industry. Her and her siblings were brought up well with only the most expensive and beautiful things in life. As the child of two very rich parents, Mari's parents completely spoiled her and her siblings and gave them anything they could ever want. So when she wanted to learn the piano, it only took quick phone call and a few thousand dollars to get the best piano teacher they could get their hands on.
When learning the piano Mari instantly loved it. Despite the hard practices she pulled through and began learning even the most difficult of songs. She was what people liked to call a child prodigy, playing the piano at expert level and only at the age of ten. Her teachers loved her and entered her in contests all over the country, even in America. Mari had always wanted to show her parent's how beautifully she could play, but as leaders of two rising companies, they were always too busy to watch her play. They never showed up at recital's or practices but continued to give her tons of expensive gifts and wish her good luck. They had even promised to make it to her next recital, which also happened to be the most important yet. At her final recital Mari waited until it was her time to perform but they never came. In anger, Mari played her last piece on the piano ever, and left the stage broken and full of hate towards her parents.
After that Mari became quiet and began to lose all emotion. She had given up the piano and her parent's hadn't even seemed to care. It took the impossible for them to notice her anymore. She had even begun to ignore her siblings, the only two people who could ever understand her. Then came the fights. At first it was just small bickering, which then began to grow to loud yelling in the middle of the night. There were times when her parents fights would go on forever and went as far as to where the would ignore each other completely and even sleep in separate parts of their home. After a while Mari's parent's finally divorced and her and her siblings moved out with their mother, who had successfully won the custody case for her children. Mari had never felt like it was her fault and there were times when she thought they had deserved it for what she had done to her.
Even after a life of such pain, it seemed like Mari's suffering was yet from over. In her second year of Junior High, Mari had fell in love with an older classmate of hers. His name was Jason Shay, an all-around nice guy who seemed to have everything going for him. When confessing her love to him, Jason had rejected her at first. During the next day though, he had called her out after-school and had accepted her confession. Not thinking it any strange, Mari had begun to date Jason. For a while, they had a happy relationship and their relationship was already public throughout the whole school. When bringing Jason to her home one day, Mari had let him be in order to get some snacks for their study date. When coming back though,she found him sneaking an expensive-looking wall ornament into his jacket. Apparently, the person she had loved all this time was actually dirt poor, only going out with her because she was rich and would help his family become wealthy and get a better life. That day, Mari broke up with him and threw him out of her home. To say that Mari was heartbroken would be an understatement. Her love for him was something incomprehensible to anyone else, and his betrayal was an arrow in her already fragile heart. Her mother, in an attempt to bring back her old child, transferred her to Ouran Academy, an elite school for the rich and famous, though her siblings thought Girls' Academy would have been more appropriate.
When transferring to her new school, Mari had decided to make a new start. She became a different person and left behind her old self in exchange for someone more like "her", as strange as that person was. During school hours, all her troubles were far-off memories, but returning home was a constant reminder. Her siblings, having noticed this, asked their mother to take action. Rather then moving them all into a new home, she bought her daughter a high class apartment to live in, in order to help her daughter to work out all of her problems while making sure that she prepare herself for the real world. Though she was no longer reminded of her tragedies at home, a new sense of loneliness intruded her life. It was at her new school however that she met her boyfriend, [insertnamehere]. It was with him that she became a more outgoing and bright person. She learned to trust others and be more honest about her feelings. She has not yet learned of the scenario her boyfriend is in, though when she finds out, she will be sure to flip her lid!
❖ Fears // Pupaphobia, fear of puppets. Aichmophobia, fear of needles.
❖ Crush // My boyfriend ❤
❖ Theme Song // Promise
❖ Miscellaneous // Though Mari is a very feminine girl, she loves Soccer and is on the team at her school.

▬▬▬ ♥ the beautiful goddess ↷
● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ●
 cccccAphrodite awoke from her slumber, her raven black hair shining in the dim light that entered her bedroom from the bedside window. A single violet eye scanned the room, the other covered with a black eye patch. She noticed the spot next to her on the bed was empty, blankets strewn to the side revealing white sheets still warm from body heat. Ai, got up from the bed, figuring that Dionysus, who had allowed her to sleep in his bed the night before, had left for the day. She pouted as she ran her thin fingers over the empty spot, upset that he had not woken her earlier. Getting up from her bed, her thin body covered only with a pale white nightgown, went to her closet to get ready for the day.
Ai pulled out a short white skirt and a dark violet blouse and dressed herself. Putting on a cute pair of running shoes and white socks, she stretched her legs, which were thin and strong from dancing. Looking at herself in the dressing table mirror, she brushed her hair so that it was untangled from the previous nights sleep. As she finished, she looked at herself, satisfied with her beautiful appearance. It was one thing that caught her eye though as she looked herself over- her eyepatch. As she skimmed her finger along that satin fabric of it, she stared at it intently. She had never taken it off before, as mother had always forbid her to, and had wondered what lay beneath it. If her eye was even there, she had no idea, but whatever was underneath was a complete mystery to her and everyone around her, well, except mother.
Getting her bag from the corner of the room, she headed off to the school where she would now be attending- Shibusen Academy. Walking down the street, Ai caught the glances of those around her and it was perfectly understandable, as she was a figure of beauty. Upon arriving at Shibusen, she looked upon the school with a frown. It's outside was, to put it frankly, hideous. With large candle's protruding from the sides and skulls at it's center. Obviously the person who made it had no sense of style and grace at all.

Our story here begins with a group of friends. This group of friends had grown up alongside each other since childhood. Together they faced many trials and had many good memories, always seeming to be an inseparable group.But as they grew older, they found themselves changing and spending less and less time together. Eventually, they began to waver and go their separate ways. Among this group of friends were two whom had been caught in a ever-lasting rivalry. A rivalry between two childhood friends since the very moment they met. Every talent show, every spelling bee, and every sports competition had a spot reserved for them. What spot was it? An annoying first-second win. Neither was able to fully triumph over the other and take full glory or the right to gloating, as whatever they did always ended in a tie. Mock exams, test scores, and all throughout elementary and middle school. When entering high school, the people around them found them to be more compatible then they thought, while other's found them to be the opposite. Some even believed that one day they would fall in love, but these eternal rivals wished nothing of love. They just wanted to win.
And so now the next competition has begun. The male made fun of the girl for working at a maid cafe, and so she snapped back at him, saying that if he had such a job, he would definitely fail at it. The male, whom decided he would never lose to the girl, took it upon himself to join a Butler Cafe. Host-like waiters, high class delicacies, and every other dream-like services females would desire. While the female of the two had joined a Maid Cafe. Cute girls in Lolita outfits, maid-like services with words of "Master", and every other sweet as cute as the next.
The businesses, despite having a friendly rivalship in the beginning, had turned into a war with the employment of these two. They asked for help from their old friends, not only to win, but to restore their old friendships as well. Their friends, caught in a troublesome position, did not want to betray their old friends and agreed, although they would not participate in their annoying behaviors. Every week they worked hard to attract the most customers, get the most tips, be the most favored. These two however, despite their utter goal to win, had made friends in their respective cafe's and had grown close to each of them. Will this utter rivalry between them potentially damage the relationships in the process, or even ruin their friendship altogether?

I've been known as this since the day I was born: Lenalee Lifen
Though many folks tend to call me something else: Lin
Many people celebrate this day: Twenty-Two
I was declared: Female
I tend to go for: Boys
So it's natural that I like: My boyfriend, Raine Highwind
We each have our own group, I'm a member of: The Fire Nation because of Raine, but would like peace between all groups.

As I child, Lin was quiet and stoic, but has grown to be a graceful and outspoken young woman. She is quite sensitive and her feelings can be hurt quite easily, although she does her best to remain calm in any situation. She is very kind, preferring to be a peaceful person whom is always positive. Having a love for children, she is motherly and is unintentionally affectionate towards those she cares for. Quite naive for her age, she will often not recognize a dangerous situations or a bad person at once. Lin was taught by her mother to speak her mind and she does so, although she is careful not to step out of place. After having been raised in an orphanage and a poor child for some time, she still feels quite inferior to other's and is often intimidated by wealthy people. Around Raine, Lin feels more powerful than she does around other's and feels comfortable, whereas she is unused to being around strangers.
к ŋ σ ω • т н є • ρ α s т • т σ • c н α ŋ ɢ є • т н є • ғ υ т υ я є
Lenalee, although she prefers to be called Lin was originally born to a very poor family in a small Fire Nation village. Her mother and father hardly able to afford feeding themselves yet alone a young child such as her. As such, when she was old enough to walk, she was sent to an orphanage in Fire Fountain City. The caretakers there however, were cruel and demeaning, forcing children to work in order to stay. During her childhood, she worked herself to the bone in order to get a decent meal on her plate and try to survive. When she was of ten years, a wealthy and elderly couple visited the orphanage, looking for a beautiful and quiet child that would be able to succeed them and inherit their vast fortune, as they could not conceive one at their age. At ten years, Lin was a thin and beautiful child, though the money that this family held, uninterested her. Sensing this in Lin, the couple adopted her and took her to their home on Ember Island.
It was on Ember Island that Lin learned etiquette and manners from her parents. She learned how to be a proper wife and how to hold herself as a wealthy woman in society. Her mother would educate her in the arts as well as mathematics, turning Lin into a very intelligent girl. From her father, she learned history and the tales of their ancestors. He told her stories of the old avatars and of how they maintained the peace in all the lands. Lin was always one to be engrossed in his stories, hanging on every word and hoping that one day, she would see the nations in peace once again.
However, her parents old age took a downturn as her mother died in her sleep and her father soon after, leaving Lin to inherit their estate and large fortune at only seventeen. Despite the money that would keep her sustained for the rest of her life, she lost the only parents she had ever really had and suddenly felt very alone. Soon, the garden that the three had tended to together had begun to grow wild and untidy, her home gathering dust from lack of cleaning. It was then that Raine came along, offering to help her tidy up in the estate for payment. Lin, whom was unused to such help from strangers would have turned him down, if not for a tugging feeling inside of her that prevented her from refusing his offer. In the time Raine had spent at her estate, Lin had grown close to him. Telling him stories of her childhood and of her parents, things that she had never shared with anyone else before. Lin had found herself falling in love with Raine.
When she learned he had to leave Ember Island, Lin knew that she would not be able to let him leave her side. She was still young and wanted to see the world with him, whereas nothing was waiting for her at home. Lin took all of her inheritance and left her home on Ember Island in order to be with Raine, her love. After he successfully overtook the throne and became the Fire Lord, Lin joined him in the palace. Although he is busy at times, she enjoys knowing that she is there to support him.
т н є • ρ σ ω є я • σ ғ ۰ в є ŋ ם ι и ɢ • ι s ŋ ˊ т • α ʟ ʟ • ρ σ ω є я ғ υ ʟ
How to kill time: Lin enjoys painting in her free time, especially calligraphy She also enjoys music, though can rarely be able to find the time to listen to it, as she is always in the palace.

Almost forgot to mention these interesting things: Lin knows little to no combat at all, making her a very defenseless target for enemies. What she lacks in strength and combat however, she makes up for in speed and she is a very fast runner.

But you can call me: Yuko

I'll get older, once February 29th comes around!
I'm always crushin' on: Honest Guys
But for now my heart belongs to: No one.
I can be very: Yuko is seen at first, to be a rather rude person. Often studying by herself or spending her time alone, preferring to not bother with others. Her prime language is sarcasm, so it's better if you don't expect any kind words from her. When a person would ask her a question that sounded rather stupid or insignificant, she would ignore them and walk away, finding she had either no answer or it was too personal to be answered in the first place. She has a rather cold exterior and a tough as nails attitude that often makes people pissed. On the occasion she does open up, it is to her close friends and Yumi. Yuko is brutally honest, finding lies to be for cowards. She in truth, kind and loyal to her friends and is often protective of them. She is in truth loving, especially towards animals, and can be very admiring of close friends.
This is the role I play in this story: The Dog
ωнαт mєmoriєs I mαdє ≲≲≲
Life Goes On:
Yuko was born when both of her parents were still inexperienced with things like marriage and children. But hey, they were punch drunk in love. They married and lived happily, anxious for Yuko to be born so the could have a real family. They were joyous at first when she was born. Her parents had accepted her for being a zodiac member but kept the secret hidden so that she would not be taken to live in the Sohma Estate, a jail in her mother's eyes. Yuko's family life was a peaceful and happy one. That was, until one day her mother died in a car accident when she was only nine. Yuko's father lost himself in heartbreak, the loss of his wife had made something inside of him break.
After the accident Yuko's father had become indulged in his work and drinking. He never found the time for his daughter and made sure of it. On the rare occasions when he did see Yuko it was usually when she was cooking him a meal or he had just come home drunk on a rampage. On some nights it had gone so far as to where he began to beat her, repeatedly calling Yuko a "monster" and convincing her that she was the cause of his mothers death. Yuko had become emotionally scarred, her eyes had lost any trace of life and she became quiet and never spoke a word, not even when teacher's began to ask about her bruises. She stayed away from other children and skipped classes, spending her days on the playground and far away from home.
After a while, her father ignored her completely, even leaving Yuko home alone at the age of twelve to go on "trips" that would last days. This meant Yuko was forced to make herself a decent meal from whatever scraps she had managed to get at the supermarket with the little money she had. The worst came when Yuko's father went on an angry rampage because an investigator had come to ask him questions earlier that morning. Without thinking, her father grabbed a knife and drove it through her side. Luckily, a neighbor had heard the ruckus and called the cops, knowing that the father wasn't right in the head. Thankfully, the ambulance made it on time and Yuko was in safe condition. The knife had not hit any vital organs and she survived. Her father was taken to jail and she was sent off to live at the Sohma Estate with close relatives, where she rightfully belonged. When coming to the Sohma Estate, Yuko was an emotionless child and kept to herself. Mentally unstable and insecure, she began lashing out at other's, her only opportunity to show signs of emotion.
Yuko had become a delinquent, picking fights with other children at her school, her strength and natural fighting ability coming in handy. She often skipped classes and gave a nonchalant attitude to her teachers and classmates, making it seem like she didn't care if she were there or not. Her attitude often hurt those around her, though it was none of her concern as she had chosen not to care for what other's had felt, as she had already been hurt so badly. That was when Yumiko entered the picture. With her quiet nature and her ability to do everything, Yuko at first had no interest in the girl and found her annoying.
Yuko would often avoid the girl, but somehow Yumiko always managed to find her. Despite her many attempts to get rid of Yumi, the girl would always smile at her and give her flowers. She tried several times to push Yumi away, but gave up along the way. At one point she cracked and shared all of her feelings to Yumi, the many secrets of her past. She could not resist the girl who always smiled at her so purely. Yumi would spoil her and cook for her, even clean her room, the two becoming as close as siblings. Despite having her, Yuko still feels resentment and depression from her past and has not lost her awful attitude, although with Yumi's help she has certainly become a better person.
My little secrets!:
Yuko generally enjoys video games and sports activities. She enjoys a good fight every once in a while but is mostly too lazy to start one herself and only fights when another initiates one or intimidates her. She has a liking towards animals although she does not admit it openly. Yuko has a fear of hospitals and of fire. An embarrassing secret of hers is that she secretly adores shoujo manga's and collects them.

I can be very: Yumi has a gentle and strong personality despite her past. She is very sweet, loving and on occasions very stubborn. Yumi is a warm person and has a rather innocent personality, often getting embarrassed or flustered easily. She can be gracious, kind, and sensitive though she can be very dense to what is currently going on. She has a curious nature and is always dazing off into space, which causes her clumsy nature and tendency to forget small things. Yumi is known to ask questions that seem meaningless and not related to the current subject, though in truth they have more meaning than they seem. She is moody and a bit self-indulgent. Despite this, she is a very good friend and quite soft-spoken. She is very trusting and despite her denseness, she is very clever when it comes to the feelings of others. She can be a bit strict though, despite her kind personality, and will give her Yuko a strict scolding when her grades slack and she gets into fights. Yumi, being the mature eighteen year old she is, is very feminine and takes pride in her gender. Despite such, she is actually very insecure due to her hair, which gives her a boyish appearance.
This is the role I play in this story: Rabbit of the Zodiac

Life Goes On:
Yumiko was born one of a set of fraternal twins to one of the more distant branches of the Sohma family. Their parents Minase and and Daisuke, being very young and still unexperienced with the aspect of having a family, had estranged themselves from the Sohma family after they had found out that they were pregnant. Their parents had been against their being together from the start, but they had not heeded their warnings and they eloped. Being still very young and without much money, Daisuke got a job as a construction worker, the only job he could get despite it's low pay. For a while, they managed to get by and lived happily, anxious for their baby to be born so the could have a real family. When the found they were to have twins instead, they became rather nervous. They could barely get by on their own and with an upcoming baby, so another would be quite expensive. Daisuke began working longer hours, more and more stress beginning to build on him as he struggled to make money to feed his wife, the two children within her, and himself. When the twins were born, two months earlier than expected, and held in each of their arms, it was discovered one was a Zodiac- Yumiko being the Rabbit. They didn't know how to react. Minase and Daisuke were on the edge of emotional breakdowns, with one of their children being born a zodiacs and hardly any income coming in, they had no choice but to give both of the children up as they couldn't support two children let alone one. It hadn't helped that their mother was absolutely disgusted with the fact that one of her children was born as what she called a "freakish monster".
The twins were taken to the Sohma Estate and their mother, having broken down from emotional stress, had her memories erased. Daisuke kept his memories, his love, though small, still remaining for his children. The two were raised by their grandparents, on their fathers side. Despite the solemn and cold relationship with their Daisuke, they treated the two like close members of the family and welcomed them with open arms. Their father would often come to visit them, though the visits weren't very long. He would often bring them gifts and clothes in order to express that he still cared. The visits, though, shortened over the years. Their father had gotten a better paying job and their mother had become pregnant with a boy, one who has absolutely no idea about them. Soon their father had stopped visiting, only coming every few months or so to give a check to the Sohma family for taking care of them, or to have a very awkward conversation with the two about how much they'd grown or how they looked so much like their parents.
The twins soon became withdrawn, they had already lost one parent due to her own disgust of them, and it hurt to lose another. It hadn't helped that Yuichi had started to become a bit rebellious, often getting into fights and playing pranks on others. Yumiko was a sensitive child and was seen as a baby-cry. Due to this, the twins didn't make many friends and if they did, it didn't last very long. Her brother would often tell her "Who cares? We're better off alone." or "It doesn't matter, as long as we're together everything will be alright." Soon enough, the twins began to believe this themselves and shut the rest of the world out. They saw no need to even talk to other children and played by themselves in order to occupy their time. Despite their grandparents tries to be close to the two, all their attempts seemed to fail. Life began to seem better off without other people.
Other children would think the twins believed they were too good for others, especially since they were members of the Sohma family, one of the biggest families in Sakura, Japan. Yumiko was a baby-cry as a child, often tripping her own two feet or crying whenever her brother wasn't be her side. Because of this, she was constantly bullied by those around her, being teased and made fun of. Kids would shove her in hallways or pull her hair during recess. However, these were only light parts of the situation. The worst came soon after. One day after school, they surrounded her. They forced her onto the ground and took turns cutting off her long brown hair. Afterwards they locked her in the school storage room, where a teacher found her later that night, sobbing her eyes out and having a panic attack. After that, the Sohma family transferred her to a different school, and her grandparents took her to properly get her hair cut, though it gave her a boyish appearance. It was this that caused her brother to be so over-protective of her, and kept others from trying to get close to her. He even pushed away family members, honestly believing that befriending others would only result in her pain. Despite all this though, the memories of that day still remained clear in Yumiko's head and still remain. Yuichi felt like all his efforts had been put to waste.
But like all things, that soon came to a change. Soon, they were already in High School, and Yuichi no longer found it necessary to stay by her side. He soon became interested in girls and Yumiko suddenly felt unneeded. Sure, despite her boyish looks and rather flat chest, she was a Sohma after all. And like all Zodiacs of the Sohma, Yumiko was born more beautiful than normal people. Because of this, she was often chased by guys despite her constant rejections. Most of the friends she had made in high school were either back-stabbers looking for more popularity or people that just didn't get her. Her brother, along with his interest in girls had also sprouted another interest- knowledge. He had always been a good student and had exceeded in each of his subjects, but he felt in order to be the College Professor that he wanted to be, that he needed to go to better schools and have a better life, so he decided to study abroad at a Private High School, which would be followed by six long years in college in America. Yumiko, whom had grown up relying on him, felt lost without her brother, and suddenly felt discouraged to go on without him there. Despite the two being twins, they hadn't shared the same dreams and had been different in all ways, since the beginning.
Shortly after her brother left, Yumiko's grandmother died. Though since they hadn't been very close since the beginning, she saw no real point in being saddened by such a thing. We would all die eventually, right? So what was the point in mourning something that was impossible to avoid? Her grandmother's death though, left her a Fifteen year old minor and subsequently alone. Since her grandfather had Alzheimer's, he was in no position to properly raise Yumiko and so she was sent off to live with an uncle of hers who is rarely home and often naught overseas. Yuko is in her last year of High School and has no other choice but to stay at the Sohma Estate with her uncle. Having no real dream for the future and being tied down as a Zodiac has made her believe that a different future other than confinement is impossible.
My little secrets!:
Yumiko has a strong fear of any form of insects and anything even remotely scary; phobia's that she has continued to have since childhood. She has claustrophobia and tends to stay far away from tight spaces or else she will have a panic attack. This was caused by a prank a couple of bullies played on her when she was a child. Her favorite hobbies cooking and cleaning, and Yuko likes to say she would make a very good wife, something that always makes Yumiko blush in embarrasement.
