♦ striking resemblance

@hcjaehoon​

“wait outside”, haneul quietly tells cerberus before he enters the pokémon center. the three houndoom nod and sit, out of the way of the passersby but close enough to the glass pane that they can see both haneul and zoroark walk inside the center.

haneul still thinks it’s a bit too much, especially now that he’s a full adult with a job completely unrelated to the family’s business. no one ever tried coming for him, after all, and he still has no reason to think anyone should.

it’s warm inside the center, so he removes his scarf and gestures for zoroark to let him remove his matching pink one, folding both over his arm before they make it to the front desk.

(he knows the scarf is a bit overkill, considering zoroark’s already clad in a very pretty pink turtleneck, but haneul thinks it’s better to be safe than sorry; they’re there for a quick checkup, anyway)

“good afternoon”, he tells the man at the front desk, “we’d like to-- oh goodness.”

he stops mid-sentence, a little dumbstruck but mostly very, very fascinated by the attendant in front of him. he looked gruff, a little rough on the edges, his forced smile showing off sharp teeth. his dark demeanor contrasted, overall, with his very pink uniform.

haneul smiles, eyes sparkling with mischief. “you look--you look just like my zoroark”, he coos. “this has to be the cutest thing i’ve ever seen.”

zoroark knits his eyebrows together in confusion at haneul, as if asking why are you bothering this young man for, but all haneul does is let out a giggle at his own comment, still looking at the attendant like he’s something precious to be watched.

✿ intro!

hey hey guys this is andie, @hcsanghyun​‘s player and now haneul’s player as well! before i get to ims i just wanted to post this here so everyone knows dfhsghjsdf

i’m gonna finish setting haneul’s stuff up later today/tomorrow, but for now i’ll post another quick run-down on him as a character so if you’d like a starter just reply to this post with a word or a sentence and i’ll use it as a prompt. if you’d like to plot more stuff you can always hit me up by message and i’ll take a look at your character’s profile and propose a few plots? (i’ve yet to message everyone who liked sanghyun’s intro and i’m sorry for that - now you know the reason, i like to come prepared @ you dgfhdf)

and now the rundown on haneul:

❀ comes from a filthy rich “traditional” family; most of his adult relatives are in the business branch, and his grandmother became a pokémon breeder after retiring. they’re generally very recluse, and little is known of the chas except that they’re a weird bunch that’s always dressed in black and uses dark type pokémon for pets, partners, and security guards. kind of like a less wacky addams family, maybe?

❀  haneul is the exception to their strange dress code, as he prefers much lighter colors and can often be seen donning pastel pink outfits; he’s a little on the tacky/fashion terrorist spectre, but he knows how to dress up when necessary.

❀ history enthusiasts might know the most famous cha ancestorfor his misdeeds in war; although it did happen a few hundred years ago, most of the family still feels very much ashamd of this past. it’s one of the reasons they’re so recluse.

❀ haneul started participating in contests at fifteen, but only started winning them at seventeen; he became a judge at nineteen. his strongest categories were beautiful, cute, and clever; he actually mastered cute before moving on to beautiful and clever.

❀ his zoroark, aside from being his first pokémon, is also his bodyguard, along with three houndoom he collectively calls cerberus.

❀ inherited his eccentric behavior from his grandmother. he’s a little more on the extroverted side, but his dark sense of humour often contrasts with the cute image he’s built around himself as busan’s first love. he doesn’t care much about his cute image, though, and his predisposition to break it now that he’s a judge and no longer needs to maintain so impeccably a celebrity persona is very high.

❀ sometimes he carries his spiritomb in his purse; most locals are used to seeing him like this, but newcomers could feel a little weirded out by the boy in all pink with the purple smoke coming out of his bag.

❀ haneul is a ruthless judge, mirroring how he was treated when he first started participating in contests; he’s generally well-liked for putting terrible things into good wording, but he’s still very strict.

❀ he doesn’t like battling much, but he’s interested in learning.

❀ despite living in his family’s manor in haeundae, haneul is often seen in the cuter cafés in dongnae with his smaller, cuter pokémon in tow (and his four loyal bodyguards, of course)

❀ he’s easily approachable, albeit a little thorny sometimes - he learned not to be as jaded as the rest of his family, but their constant vigilance did rub a little off on him.
