Tadashi Minoru

Tadashi

None | 23 | Heterosexual 

Full name: 忠 里 Tadashi Minoru
Gender: Male
Occupation: Works for the Tokyo Police Department 
Home: Apartment in Tokyo
Face Claim: Kamui Gakupo from Vocaloid



Hair: Tadashi might stand out in a crowd simply due to his hair being very purple in colour, there is no mistaking the colour, and yes it is natural given his eyebrows and even eyelashes are purple as well. Likely does not help that Tadashi has hair to his butt that he keeps pulled back in a simple tail, with sweeping bangs to frame his face.
Eyes: His eyes are honestly a lighter shade of purple than his eyes, and yes framed by purple eyelashes that honestly any woman should be jealous of.
Height: Six foot even
Weight: 215lbs
Unique Features: Purple hair is not enough? 
Body: Tadashi comes off as rather unassuming as a police officer, but people should keep in mind there are physical requirements to the job and he meets them. Outside of work of course some might say that he is rather striking in appearance. He has fine features, almost delicate but cannot be mistaken as feminine, even having long hair. His build is masculine in frame, lean and with a dancers body though yes. He is the type that has a six pack of abs but has not packed on extra weight in his workouts. Leaving him almost underweight looking, for all muscle weighs more than fat, and almost too thin. Really he would say he is just compact in a sense, stretched over his frame, but there is no extra fat on his bones. Long limbed but manages to come off as graceful in his actions. 

Clothing Style: Uniform at work of course, given he is a part of the Tokyo police, but Tadashi tends to change into and out of uniform at the work locker rooms. So most of the time he is in suits or dressy-casual wear. Tadashi does not seem to know how to dress down, or rather his version of dressing down is still designer slacks and a button up dress shirt. Maybe with a few buttons undone and the shirt untucked. That is as casual as he gets. Otherwise yes he is comfortable in suits, solid colours only, no pattern or strips for him. That goes for anything he wears, he likes just colours, no designs. Is careful to not clash with his hair colour though likes how red contracts nicely with purple. Most of his suits are either altered to fit his taller frame, or custom tailored to him, meaning he cuts a very fine imagine in a suit. His ears are pierced, though at work he tends to only have one set in, outside of work it is not rare to see him with studs or small hoops going along most of his ear.

Birthplace: Tokyo 

Family: Really just his father and his dad, there is technically other family on his father's side but they cut off his father when he got married.

History: History for Tadashi is rather simple, till recent times there has been nothing terribly tragic in his life. Born to a higher class family simply meant that things were expected of him and manners would be seen to. Outsiders looking in might think his childhood was cold, both of his fathers worked fulltime so in his early years he was left with a maid, later years he was expected to look after himself. Tabashi grew up well though, quiet and behaved and it was just life, appearances mattered, his father was a higher rank member of the police, his dad worked with the Tokyo Legal Affairs Bureau. Added that he was of course an adopted child to a same gender couple, appearances mattered a lot to the family. It could be said that maybe Tadashi did not emotionally grow enough, but he was always aware that his fathers loved him with all their hearts, they were just busy and expected him to do something great with his life. 

So school years had him quiet and withdrawn, always weeks ahead of his school work and written off by his classmates as being a bit too weird to get along with. Imagine his surprise then when some girl plopped next to him, a seat that had remained empty for years, and started talking about light theory before shoving her name somewhere in the middle of math equations and asking his thoughts on the matter. Was the start of his first friendship to someone, even if the girl was clearly a bit mental she was nice and they got along, even being mostly opposites. She was intelligent, when she could be kept on topic, with an odd sense of humor and enough life to her that Tadashi realized he had been lonely before meeting her. 

The friendship only grew as things went, and really it was his dad asking when he would going to make a proper woman of Naomi that made Tadashi even think about marriage. He brought it up to her and she threw herself at him in excitement and it seemed they were getting married, though really Naomi and his dad were the two that planned almost everything, with some help of Naomi's mother. Tadashi stayed well out of the way with his father in slight confusion on why it had to be a big deal at all. So they got married at 17, Tadashi's parents gifting them with an apartment for them to move out and live together as a married couple. 

The first few years were fine in a way and horrible at the same time, really they went from being best friends to lovers with very little warning. Tadashi was rarely home though because of police school and training, Naomi kept the weirdest hours for shrine visitations and shows. It was a marriage that they rarely got to see each other, and when they did they were both normally tired and not wanting to do much but eat and sleep. Really it should have been to no surprise when things fell apart then, and yet somehow to Tadashi it was both a surprise and heartbreaking at the same time. 

Everything ended with him being called to the hospital, the call short and blunt to leave him thinking Naomi had gotten hurt and of course he rushed off, barely calling someone to cover his patrol. Naomi was in poor health, and already with a lawyer going over paperwork with her for legal separation when Tadashi walked in the room. Shocking of course, but less shocking than her hiding under her covers as she admitted she had cheated on him and gotten with child and lost the child. The details rushed out in a single breath as the lawyer quickly excused themselves so Tadashi could stand there and blink at her in shock. He was quiet as he went to sign the papers, papers she had not even signed yet and left the room without saying anything to her, stopped at the main desk and set up for Naomi's bills to be paid and he left. 

Tadashi returned to work with apologies for his rushing off and finished up his day, he went home like normal and repeated his daily routine for three days till Naomi came slinking in. Whatever ramble she tried to give he cut off, telling her to move her items to the guest quarters before he got home please, and went off to work. Was the first day he altered from his normal schedule though, after work he did not go home to cook dinner, but went out to eat, then went to a bar and proceeded to attempt to drown himself in alcohol. Alas going through work the next day with a murderous hangover taught him to not do that again to that level, but it is still often that Tadashi just skips going home till really after midnight. Things have been terribly awkward since them of course, but Naomi still lives with him because he is not the type to throw her on the streets, but there is no love lost between them, he closed that door rather firmly. 



Trivia:

• yes Tadashi is aware of the Kings and their clans, his dad had been a member of the blue clan and that is hard to hide after so many years in the same house
• the main reason Tadashi goes home at all is likely because he has a pet cat that he adores and really she is too sweet to just leave
• coloured ink makes him twitch, alright reports should be done in black or blue, preferably black, no other colour is acceptable 
• does not let other people slander Naomi if they find out what happened, it is private business only, thus between them, others do not need to get their nose or insults into it
• does like to cook when he has the apartment to himself, home made everything from sauces down
