flowers and duality? :]

Let's get into it!!

flowers - already answered!

duality - how would you explain your dynamic in a nutshell? what impression do you give to other characters in their source? what about them to people you know in real life?

Why is this always so hard for me? I'll do my best to describe it.

If Ichimatsu talks as though he's pessimistic, Iru is a grounded optimist. Both can be mischevious, though Ichimatsu is in larger ways given the nature of a comedy anime character. Iru is also very honest and direct, so Ichimatsu doesn't get to mosey around questions about his feelings.

A key thing is that both of them are lonely. Iru pushes for interaction to cope with that, while Ichimatsu is so used to pushing away social interaction that he doesn't get any interaction anymore. Iru gets him out of his slump temporarily but doesn't force him to. After some time, he got the courage to start initiating interactions with them.

I think Iru comes off as intimidating to most characters in Osomatsu-San. They're a young adult with a stable art job, appear to be put together, and have a tendency to be blunt. That's intimidating to NEETs.

Iru's parents would mostly be wary that Ichimatsu won't hurt Iru. They would expect Iru to bring a girl home, so seeing him would be a shock. As long as he seems to respect Iru, they would be fine with him. Iru would probably talk about him a lot before he met them anyways!

Iru's siblings would think he's a bit weird, but if he started talking about his costumes, horror movies, or cats he could win them over fairly easily. Their grandparents would be a bit skeptical at hearing he doesn't have a job (and maybe that he doesn't speak Spanish) but wouldn't say much because they care about Iru.

Funnily enough, Iru's aunt and uncle would be the first that Ichimatsu would meet in person. They actually live in Japan, so no flights would be necessary.

Also, if you want to know Iru's friends' impressions of Ichimatsu, you should ask them! @x-go2sleep-x and @zen1dol
