Hello everyone! I'm Batty and I bring you all one Shinjiro Aragaki of Persona 3 fame, coming in from after having an ... "aggressive disagreement" with a certain gang leader in an alley, his memories of which have been gently massaged :') feel free to check out his app for more details and hmu on plurk at goodluckmodes or in the discord server to plot!
As a general summary, Shinji's a teenager who's had a rough go of things. He accidentally got someone killed once and literally could not cope; he dropped out of school, became homeless, and started making deals for sketchy drugs to suppress his Persona so it could never happen again. He's extremely depressed and withdrawn and has basically stopped living his life for the last couple of years, passively suicidal at best. Still, he has a few remaining comforts--he loves dogs, and he enjoys cooking. He also, despite himself, really cares about everyone around him and is kind of a huge mother hen.
One point of note is that Shinjiro's character arc deals with themes of depression and suicidal ideation and behavior, specifically connected to his powers and a person he accidentally killed a couple years ago. He's a very private person in general and heavily reluctant to discuss the topic in particular, so it's unlikely to be relevant in most threads, but it might come up in bracket text or in his overall attitude toward himself. Please let me know if you'd like me to avoid these topics in threading with him, and I'll skirt around them as much as possible. ♥
