教えてください、私は忘れてしまいます。 見せて、私は覚えていてもよいです。 しかし、私を伴う、と私は理解します。 Oshietekudasai, watashi wa wasurete shimaimasu. Misete, watashi wa oboete ite mo yoidesu. Shikashi, watashi o tomonau, to watashi wa rikai shimasu. Drifting...falling away to a quiet place, where no one else resided but a single, solitary soul. Undisturbed by the world's problems and worries, the mundane parts of every human life...That was the one wish, the one thing that Amagumo Shiromizu wished for. But never could his longing be fulfilled, for such a thing could never be reached...not unless he isolated himself from the rest of the world, and cut himself off from all ties to humans altogether. Something he couldn't do, no matter how hard he tried. At that particular moment, Amagumo could be found laying on his back, floating in the middle of a large body of water, his eyes closed and a tranquil look upon his face. His strangely colored white hair looked like semi-clear jellyfish tentacles in the water, and his skin had a translucent appearance to it as well. He looked as if her were quite comfortable just floating there, almost seeming as if her were asleep. Some might think that if they saw him, not moving, just...floating. Not doing anything at all. Even though he knew he had places to be, he just didn't feel like it that day. It was about to be break anyways, so why bother going to school when the next day and the week after he would be out of it? To be honest, he hated school, and if he could he'd just drop from it, but there was something that was keeping him there. The swim club. Because of the Iwatobi Swim Club, Amagumo went to school, endured pointless classes. Because of the others on the team, he actually had friends, something that he doubted he'd ever have if it weren't for the club. He risked skipping that day because he already knew what was going on in the club activities, they weren't going to have any practices that week because Gou was going out of town for a family thing, and Rei was as well. They were simply told to keep up with their own personal training, and be in good condition when they all got back after vacation. The pool in which Amagumo was swimming at that moment wasn't actually a pool, but the pond at a park. A public park. And even more odd was the fact he was wearing clothes. His school uniform to be exact, which contained of a short sleeved white button up shirt, and a green tie, and dark tan pants. His black jacket was tossed on the ground, along with his shoes; same with the pants, which under he wore his swimming jammers. He was getting weird looks by people who were walking past on the path that led through the large park, but none stopped to talk to him. Several already knew who he was, and knew that this kind of behavior coming from Amagumo was normal. So, instead, they just moved on, leaving the teen in his dream like state of being, and let him float in the water to his heart's content. A young woman who had passed by earlier, about ten minutes or so, knew Amagumo well, as she happened to be his neighbor, and left a dry, folded towel next to his clothing and school bag, as well as a dry white shirt. Amagumo sighs as he lay there, cracking his eyes open just a tiny margin, gazing up at the serene blue sky, with it's soft fluffy white clouds floating among the expanse of eternity, the reflection of that beautiful scene showing upon the surface of the lake around him, making him feel as if he were floating in the middle of not a lake, but the sky itself. A flock of birds fly up ahead, and Amagumo closes his eyes again, before shifting slightly, so that he began to drift slowly along in the water.

He is kind of like Haruka in a way, except a bit more introverted, and much harder to get to know, or get to open up to. However, when he does open up to you, he's a tiny margin more talkative, but even then he's still quiet, though you'd definitely notice the difference. He loves swimming just as much as the rest of the team, and always has simply floating on his back in the middle of the ocean on a hot summer day on his mind. He's a team player, and definitely a follower, not a leader. He can always be counted on, despite his appearances.

Even if a million miles separate us, the world stuck in between. You'll always be near me in my heart, forever and eternity: you and me. ~Ryosuke Takafumi - Forever and Eternity: The Album Dozing quietly in his room, hand loosely holding onto the pencil in which he'd been using moments before, Ryosuke Takafumi stares out the window from his bedroom window on the third floor of the humongous mansion in which he called home. It was nice outside, the weather perfect for skateboarding or doing something fun, but instead he was stuck inside, studying. Or well, trying to study that is. His mind kept wandering to other things, like next band's practice, or the photo shoot and video rehearsal that was to take place during the weekend. In Ryosuke's opinion, homework was lame, but at the same time it also helped him keep a hold onto what he really was. A regular teenager in high school. Last night at dinner he and his mother, well, his caretaker, Mufukine, had a conversation about this whole thing, and she had decided that maybe it would be best if he had a tutor, since his life as an idol often got into the way of classes, and because he missed so many he didn't always get every thing that was taught when he was gone. At first he told her it was a stupid idea, he didn't need a tutor, he could figure it out on his own. Even so, she told him to think about it, and to make her stop talking about the whole subject he'd agreed; now, as he was stuck on a question and daydreaming about other things, he was beginning to think that the whole 'tutor' idea wasn't such a dumb idea after all. So, coming upon that decision, he sends a quick text to Mufukine and set down his pencil, closing the text book that had been laying open on his desk. Leaning back in his chair, he takes a deep breath, sighing loudly, looking up at the ceiling while stretching his arms over his head. Sticking to nearly every square inch of the ceiling, and a good part of the walls as well, were posters of different bands, as well as some of his own. Included among them were also photos, letters, and other such things from fans and admirers, and a small portion of the wall was dedicated to photos of his friends, his band mates. Goofing off, laughing, spending time together when they could. Some were at amusement parks, others at huge malls. On the floor was a shaggy blue and red carpet, he had a huge bed that was decked out in gothic sheets and blankets, a multi level shelf was covered in books, and he also had a T.V., with lots of game consoles, with a shelf dedicated to all the different games he owned. Next to this was a huge music system, with enormous speakers and a multi deck cd holder. Scattered around the room were trinkets and such, in the corner leaning against the wall was his guitar, next to it were two amps and the plugs that went to them. A set of double doors opened to a walk in closet stuffed with all kinds of different clothes, and another set of doors swung out to reveal a balcony in which at least ten people could sit or stand comfortably. There were a couple of chairs and a table out there. On his desk was a mess of papers and other desk items, a lamp, and his cellphone. And all over the floor was a mess. Some might say it was cramped or unorganized, but to Ryosuke, it was how it was supposed to be. A buzzing indicated that Mufukine had replied to his text, and he read what she wrote. 'Alright then. I'll contact a few people and see if they can find someone. I'll let you know once I get some information. -Mufukine Mizuo-' Tossing his phone aside after sending an 'okay' in reply, he gets up from the chair and walks over to his bed, flopping onto it, laying on his back, closing his eyes. Slowly he drifts off to sleep, exhausted from overworking his brain on complicated equations, and soon enough he was lost in the world of dreams. Who is Ryosuke you ask? Well, he's an idol. He's the lead singer to a band named Danger Zone, a very popular group throughout not only Japan, but other countries as well. Their label was 'Colorful 5', a group that takes things like this very seriously, often pitting each of their own against each other, so as to keep them at the top of the popularity scale. Ryosuke Takafumi. 18 years old. Resident of Tokyo, Japan. High school student. And world class idol. Who would have known?

Loves joking and fooling around, and pulling pranks on people. He often rebels against many things as well because he is torn between his life as an idol and the youth he wants to cherish. This is all but a way to hide the pain he feels deep inside. A painted on smile to mask the hurting he holds hidden away in his heart.
