……:D?

Headcanons:

First impressions of Daiji are usually about her being so clumsy

Then they realize she's actually blind and sometimes wanders without her walking stick

Daiji's had it rough, she went along with Unknown's instructions because she didn't have a lot of options

Oddly lucky and unlucky?

Daiji's family was terribly abusive and neglectful, leaving her very shy and nervous around new people

Often going out of her way to avoid meeting people whenever and however she could

So the RFA messenger to meet people actually worked out pretty well, considering

Without much else to do and unable to leave the apartment, Daiji spends a LOT of time talking to the RFA

A LOT. OF. TIME.

So much so they start wondering if she actually sleeps at all

Her relationships with the RFA members was strange at first, she didn't get a lot of their jokes...

But Daiji is very, very sweet and endearing. It's hard not to think of her as an adorable little bean that needs to be protected~

The only person to know Daiji is blind before meeting her in person is Seven

He learns this by the CCTV feed from the apartment

Daiji has a walking stick, but often forgets where she leaves it and cannot find it

This leads to Seven being alarmed when he hears glass breaking through the security feed

Only to find out that it's just Daiji walking into the table again, trying to make her way through and unfamiliar place

This, sometimes, gets Seven to call her and direct her

It's not often, but when he does Daiji waves to the room, to Seven, not knowing where the cameras are

It's pretty cute~
