Naoko's the character in my cast with the least plots, so I figured I'd throw her in for consideration.

Naoko is sixteen years old (seventeen start of next month) and in Grade 11 at Manta Carlos. Unlike pretty much everyone else, she's actually native to the island--she's been in Starlight Academy since preschool. Naoko herself has no powers, although her father does, which is why she's on the island.

In general, I imagine that Naoko is a fixer. She's probably going to end up with someone who is more on the timid end of things, or maybe someone who's been traumatized in the past. Naoko's father is very traumatized by his past, and Naoko's grown up learning to be extra delicate with him. I could see her gravitating to people she feels are 'like her father', and being extra protective/defensive of someone she feels had a similar past (even if it wasn't quite the same).

So, basically that's the jist of what I had in mind. If you've got ideas, throw them at me.

Keep in mind I won't for-sure guarantee a ship until I'm sure there's IC chemistry, simply because sometimes... well, sometimes things don't work out.

-Plops Emily down here-

Emily doesn't have a particularly troubled past or anything like that, but she tends to be shy. I would like some more plots with her and she's currently single so I figure it might be worth testing the chemistry between them. Worse comes worse, they can probably at least be friends or something.

As far as meeting threads go, it'd probably make the most sense for them to meet at school somewhere, maybe lunchtime? If you think they'd be interesting together of course. :3

She's so shy it's almost painful. My biggest worry with that is the age gap, but then Naoko likes to think she's mature for her age...

Is it possible someone's bothering Emily - not quite bullying, but just harassment, and then Naoko thinks she's younger than she is and intervenes?

I sure such a situation could arise :3 Emily doesn't do terribly well with standing up to strangers. I guess it probably makes the most sense for me to start the thread then?
