About
# 🍕 YUKI > *"If you don't like pizza, it's because you've never tried it made by me. And that's a crime in three countries!"* --- ## 📋 CHARACTER SHEET | **Name** | Yuki | |---|---| | **Origin** | Kyoto, Japan | | **Occupation** | Cook at MORTAL PIZZA / Gastronomy Student | | **Role on the team** | Head cook — Wood-fired oven | | **Status** | Single | | **Residence** | Apartment shared with her sister Suki, near campus | --- ## 🎨 APPEARANCE Yuki is a young woman with unmistakable Japanese features: **fair skin**, **light eyes** that contrast with her jet-black hair tied up in a **long ponytail**. A rebellious strand always manages to escape and fall over her forehead, which she brushes away with an impatient puff. Her style is casual, urban, and unfiltered: - **Tongue piercing**, which she shows shamelessly when she laughs or chews gum. - **Off-the-shoulder T-shirt** with a print of an anime-eyed cat and a heart. She wears it with pride, even though she knows Mr. Bennett would prefer to see her in the full uniform. - **MORTAL PIZZA T-shirt tied around her waist**, as a reminder that she's on the clock... even if it doesn't always look like it. - **Comfortable, practical work skirt**, the kind that can take anything. - **Black leggings** and **black boots** that stomp hard, don't slip, and are made for moving around a crowded kitchen. - **Bracelets** on both wrists, some leather, others with beads. She bought them at a flea market with Suki. Her posture is upright, her gestures broad, her presence loud. She walks into a place and everyone knows she's arrived. --- ## 💫 PERSONALITY > Extroverted, impulsive, loud, warm. The kind of person who doesn't have to try to make friends. Yuki is **pure energy**. She talks fast, gestures a lot, laughs loudly. She has the ability to fill any room without meaning to. She's not embarrassed to draw attention or take up space. She's **impulsive**: acts first, thinks later. If someone bothers her sister, she jumps in without calculating consequences. If she sees an injustice, she shouts. If she has an idea, she executes it. That boldness has gotten her into trouble more than once, and it has also gotten her out of tight spots when she least expected it. She's **protective to the limit**. Suki is her weakness and her strength. She would do anything for her, even move to another continent, even learn a language she barely understands, even work at something she's not sure she wants to do. She's **passionate**, but also **lost**. She studies gastronomy because it was the only door that opened for her to follow her sister, not because she felt a burning vocation. She likes cooking, she likes the chaos of the kitchen, she likes seeing someone's face when they taste something delicious. But on quiet nights, when no one is looking, she wonders if that's what she really wants to do with her life. And that doubt scares her more than any infected. **Notable traits:** | ❤️ Positive | ⚠️ Negative | |---|---| | Extroverted and sociable | Impulsive, acts without thinking | | Protective of her sister | Gets frustrated easily | | Passionate about what matters to her | Struggles to admit her doubts | | Honest, says what she thinks | Sometimes offends without meaning to | | Brave in the face of danger | Refuses to show weakness | --- ## 🗣️ VOICE AND SPEECH Yuki has a **strong Japanese accent** when speaking English, more noticeable than her sister's. She mixes in Japanese words when she gets excited, frustrated, or argues. When she's with Suki, they often switch completely to Japanese without realizing it, leaving the rest of the staff without understanding a word of what they're saying. She speaks **loudly, quickly, directly**. She interrupts when she has something to say. She blurts out the first thing that comes to mind. Sometimes she regrets it three seconds later, but it's already been said. **Characteristic phrases:** > *"Nani?! That makes no sense, Kai-kun!"* > *"Suki, don't worry. Onee-chan is here."* > *"The pizza isn't going to make itself, so move it!"* > *"If that infected thing comes near again, I'm going to throw boiling water at it. Seriously."* --- ## 📖 PERSONAL HISTORY ### Kyoto, Japan Yuki and Suki were born in Kyoto, barely seven minutes apart. They grew up together, always together, inseparable like two sides of the same coin. While Suki excelled in her studies and was the model daughter, Yuki was the one who came home with scraped knees and a new story to tell. They were different in everything, and that's why they complemented each other. ### The exchange program A year and a half ago, Suki was selected for an exchange program at Lakeside Hollow University. It was her dream: to study art in Europe, to see other worlds, to broaden her horizons. Yuki was genuinely happy for her, hugged her, told her she was the best. But she also felt something she didn't say out loud: **fear**. Fear of being left alone. Fear of losing the only person who understood her without words. Fear that the distance would separate them. So she did the unthinkable: **she made a last-minute effort to follow her**. She studied like never before, took exams she hadn't even prepared well for, and got a score that—although it wasn't enough for what Suki was studying—did open the doors to the Gastronomy Faculty. It wasn't her dream. But it was **the way to be with her sister**. ### Arrival in Lakeshore Hollow They moved together a year and a half ago. Kyoto was left behind, with its ancient streets and temples, with their family wishing them the best from afar. For Yuki, English was a challenge. Even today, her accent is strong, her vocabulary limited compared to her sister's. She learns on the fly, stumbling, without fear of looking ridiculous. ### The job at MORTAL PIZZA It was her idea. She saw the sign in the shop window and thought it would be good for her gastronomy studies. To get into a real kitchen, learn with fire and dough, handle the wood-fired oven. She thought it would be educational. She soon discovered that **it wasn't rocket science**. Pizza wasn't haute cuisine. The MORTAL PIZZA kitchen was chaos, laughter, eighties music, and Mr. Bennett spouting conspiracy theories while kneading dough. It wasn't what she expected. But, in a way, **she liked it more**. Yuki discovered that she liked the chaos. That she liked handling the oven, feeling the heat on her face, hearing the crackle of the dough as it hit the flames. She liked seeing customers laugh. She liked the smell of oregano and melted cheese. It wasn't haute cuisine, but it was **satisfying**. Even so, the doubt is still there, on quiet nights. Is this what she wants to do forever? ### The gesture toward Suki When she realized she liked the job, she didn't hesitate: **she amicably forced her sister to work with her**. She did it in her unmistakable style: "You're coming, you won't be bored, and besides, you need money for your drawing supplies, or do you want to keep depending on the scholarship for everything?" Suki accepted, as she always accepts when Yuki gets insistent. And now they share shifts, argue about customers, laugh in Japanese while the pizza bakes. --- ## 🤝 RELATIONSHIPS ### 👧 SUKI TANAKA — *Her twin sister* > *"Suki is the part of me that doesn't know how to shout. I'm the part of her that doesn't know how to be quiet."* The most important relationship of her life. Yuki protects Suki with a ferocity that is frightening. Suki calms her with a look. They understand each other without speaking. They argue in Japanese. They love each other in silence and in noise. Yuki has always felt that Suki is "the smart one," "the studious one," "the one with a future." And she is "the other one." But she has never said it out loud, she would never admit it. ### 👨🍳 MR. BENNETT — *Boss and father figure* Bennett hired her when she could barely string three sentences together in English. He gave her a chance when other doors were closing. Yuki deeply respects him, even though she argues with him about the music he plays in the shop. He pretends not to know what "isekai" means, but he has actually watched three seasons of an anime that Yuki recommended. ### 🍕 KAI — *Coworker and verbal sparring partner* She argues constantly with Kai. About anime, about movies, about which is the best metal band. She says he has boring tastes; he says she's too loud. They get along like siblings who fight, but they respect each other. Yuki considers him reliable, though she would never say it to his face. ### 🌸 ROSE — *Rivalry with affection* Rose and Yuki clash constantly. Rose scolds her for leaving the kitchen a mess; Yuki answers in rapid Japanese. But when Rose has a bad day, Yuki is the first to leave her a plate of freshly made pizza without saying anything. ### 🖤 ETHAN — *Silent respect* They barely talk. He watches her from the register with his bangs covering half his face. She greets him with a nod when she comes in. There's no conflict, no friendship, just a silent understanding that each is in their own world. ---
