13. Did they like school? Teachers? Schoolmates?

Daisuke was homeschooled! He liked his teacher, though. A lady named Nanao! She taught him from elementary to middle school age, as well as a couple of high-school subjects such as algebra.

21. What are your character’s manners like? What is their type of hero? Whom do they hate?

Daisuke is incredibly formal. He tries not to be, but...it kind of just...comes out...like...that? Especially when he meets new people, he’s stiff and fidgety, and overall kind of robotic.

As for his hero? Most likely Steven Stone, the Hoenn League champion! He’s seen the man on the UWT stage once, and to witness someone so cool and confident with his steel types? It was a sight to behold!

5. Were they overprotected as a child? Sheltered?

Oh, incredibly. Not so much overprotected as he was sheltered. Most of his childhood was spent inside, studying. Even now, though he has a little more freedom, being 18, Daisuke is super duper sheltered. He doesn’t even realize he’s 18/Allowed To Legally Tell His Parents To Fuck Off, either. If you asked him, he’d probably legitimately forget and tell you he was 16 or 17.

32. How does your character react to stress situations? Defensively? Aggressively? Evasively?

Defensively and Evasively. Usually the latter. Daisuke has a very strict tilt in preference toward ‘flight’ in stressful situations that aren’t a pokemon battle, since he’s been taught to fear unknown variables as a reflex. If he can’t control it, he can and will run away from it.

Calling Parents By Their Names

When at home, Daisuke will refer to his parents as ‘mother’ and ‘father’, but when talking to strangers, he tends to simply call them Hideki and Izumi.

Trope!

Innocent Prodigy!

Daisuke likes to act like he’s mature, but honestly, for the most part, he’s still a nerd that’s shut in his room studying all day. With said nerd tendencies, he’s very smart...at the cost of having few to no real social skills due to them being commandeered by his father :Tc

♠!

Daisuke used to have a shitty bowlcut when he was younger like so. His parents wouldn’t let him grow it out any longer or ‘wilder’ than that. It took several attempts of begging and Sayaka tantruming for them to allow him to let it grow to what it is now.

RIP, Bowlcut, 2007-2014

♠ (family)

Daisuke actually spends very little time with his parents outside of tournaments and family dinners. When forced to ‘spend time’ with them for appearances, he’ll always slip away with an excuse of ‘studying’ at his earliest (and least rude-seeming) convenience.

Sometimes, Sayaka provides distractions for an easy out.
