“ O-Oh! You startled me... ” Hanayo trails off, staring at the strange girl for a moment, face still a bit drained from what she did just half an hour ago. Not that she actually believed anything would happen, but she did go to the shrine to pray just in case...

“ I-I’m sorry, I was just clearing my head. Are y-you lost, little one? Why are you here so late at night? ”

just do all of the symbols. all of them.

god bless you

❣ - hands

The Batter’s hands are very particular, enough to draw the viewer’s attention to them. Like the rest of his body, his hands are very pale, which causes an emphasis on his knuckles and fingers. His fingers are slender and a bit longer than his palms, which allow him to use his baseball and bat with better ease. Nails are cut short to prevent any injuries during battle; if he doesn’t have any sort of knife or scissors, he’ll chew off the nail. For the most part his skin is naturally soft, except for the palms of his hands, which have become calloused due to the fact that he doesn’t wear gloves while fighting.

❤ - voice

His voice, though deep, is often soft, almost in a murmuring sort of fashion. For the most part he does this on purpose because he doesn’t entirely enjoy drawing attention to himself. There’s an underlining french accent but on most occasions he’s able to disguise it, if he focuses hard enough. 

The best example of his voice would be Jean Reno, specifically his role as Leon in The Professional.

۵ - feet

Though he wears men’s size 10 shoes, it’s a little difficult for him to find comfortable cleats because the upper part of his feet are wider than the average male’s. All of his toes are average in length, and the bottom of his feet are calloused.

❦ - lips

His bottom lip is a bit larger than his upper, however both are still slim in comparison to the average human’s lips. The color is only a very light shade of pink, a contrast to his color-less complexion.

ø - eyes

His eyes are relatively regular in size and shape, however they always seem to be a bit smaller due to his habit of squinting when observing others. There are circles under his eyes after countless nights without sleep, which are only emphasized no thanks to his pale skin. The hues are a very dark brown, to the point of being black. However, it’s been rumored that they turn red when he’s in battle, but naturally, those who have faced him have not lived to tell the tale.

ღ - nose

The Batter has what could be best described as a medium-sized hero nose, which you can see here.

♮ - body type

Standing at 6’ 3, the Batter has an athletic body, with long strong legs which allow him to move swiftly and with ease. His pecks and chest are wider than his waist, and his biceps are relatively large due to the amount of times he’s had to swing that damn bat. His body is in very excellent condition.

♫ - singing voice

He does not sing; he doesn’t feel confident enough to strain his voice. Or, rather, he’s never given himself the opportunity to try. Because really, what would he even sing? However, sometimes if he’s in a good mood, he might hum a rhythm-less tune under his breath. 

✮ - sleeping habits

The Batter rarely ever sleeps, due to his constant need to venture on and fulfill his mission. When he does sleep, it’s only when his body is unable to physically move. He either sleeps in a very flat Soldier position or in a Yearner position, when he’s stressed.

✉ - texting habits

If he were to text, it would be extremely formal, as if he were writing an essay. He would never use slang or emoticons, mainly because he wouldn’t know how to.

✿ - laugh

It isn’t very common for him to laugh, but when he does it’s a very pronounced sort of laugh, like HA HA HA. It’s also not too loud, but it sounds considerably louder compared to his normal way of speaking, so it’s been known to startle people if they aren’t too prepared. When he laughs, it causes his upper torso to move with him. His laughs are often short lived. 

✍ - writing style

He writes in script, the lines often very sleek and formal. He can write quickly without any mistake; however if he were to misspell a word, he’ll discard the entire sheet of paper and start over again.  

⌨ - time-wasting habits

He never wastes time. Every second is spent either fulfilling his mission or benefiting himself.

❅ - keeping warm/keeping cool techniques

When he’s warm, he may take off his shirt, still forcing himself to wear his under armour regardless of the heat. If he’s cold, he walks faster. He doesn’t want to spend any money on stupid things like coats. 

✎ - taste in music/literature

He enjoys classical, instrumental music. Although he can read, he doesn’t read books, because he never has the time and the majority of the books in the library in Zone 2 are filled with nonsense.

☤ - self care/first aid habits

The Batter is the type of man who won’t even acknowledge his wounds unless he’s about to faint or is on the break of death. He’s also the type who claims that “they’re fine” even if they’re missing a leg. He can handle pain very well so often times he just ignores the problem. He won’t even patch himself up unless it becomes a nuisance or if someone else does it for him.

✪ - favourite food/eating habits

Meat. Doesn’t matter what type of meat, or even how it’s prepared. Nothing else is satisfactory enough to fill his empty stomach. When he eats it’s very quick yet neat, because he wouldn’t want to waste any food by accidentally making a mess.

☁ - ideal holiday

He doesn’t have any. He believes that holidays are a waste of his time and would avoid it as much as possible.

✄ - nervous habits

He either nibbles on his nails or grips tighter onto his bat. 

☂ - sadness

Often times the Batter won’t even allow himself to feel these sort of emotions because it proves to be a bit of a distraction, especially when he should be focusing on his mission. However, if he ever did feel sad, he would never even emote it. He’ll just collect those thoughts, then force himself to think about something else. 

❈ - ideal birthday

One that will get him away from Zacharie. Why can’t that merchant just leave him alone already?
