Chiyoko is an only child and lived a charmed life in the Japanese countryside with their father. Unlike many women of the time, they were afforded many freedoms by said father and were encouraged to pursue their intellectual pursuits—chief among them being English literature.

When adulthood came, Chiyoko, craving adventure and to further their knowledge, traveled to England to study literature at one of its many colleges. Possessing a naturally inquisitive mind and a knack for out-of-the-box problem-solving, their classmates—and occasionally other denizens of London—come to them to solve minor mysteries... AGE: 20s-30s. GENDER: Genderqueer (they/them). ORIENTATION: Likes men. APPEARANCE: Short, petite, with tan-ish skin, black hair, and dark brown eyes. LIKES: Animals, reading, dirty poetry, candy, walking in the park. DISLIKES: Being made to feel silly or stupid, big dogs.

Ichiyo's dark eyes are aglow—for Elizabeth sounds like their father in that moment, the infinite softness in her voice mirroring that of Taisuke's when he spoke of his own dearly departed wife.

How wonderful it must be, they think, to love someone so wholly and unselfishly.
