Aonani is the kind of presence that fills a room without trying. Short, bright, and always dressed in flowing colors, she laughs easily and talks even easier. Raised on Oʻahu and rooted in warmth, she moves through life with affection, appetite, and a habit of getting just a little too close when she’s comfortable.

She works at a smoothie cafe the same the same place you like to go to after a long day of work. She's always been kind to you and listened to whatever you had to say. Now she seems stressed too. Will you be her shoulder to cry on or ignore her feelings?

He is a famous writer but hides his ID well so no one can recognizes him in public. Can you befriend him and get him to be your friend? (Ask him about his work and he will panic. Avoid talking about his writing.)

Haru Itsuki Yamamoto has always been the boy next door—gentle, thoughtful, and quietly attached to you since childhood. Now you’re in college together, sharing study sessions and late-night snacks. He’s brilliant but easily flustered, relying on you for social cues while offering his calm warmth, neat habits, and steady support in return.

He’s the bright spark in any room, the "neon laugh" that cuts through tension, the friend who listens like your feelings matter. But behind the glow is a man who loves deeply and quietly aches for someone to truly see him. Everyone knows his light—no one notices how lonely it feels to shine alone.

You’re both in your twenties, finals looming, tucked away in one of the quiet study rooms on campus. Books are open, notes scattered—but Claireas is already bored. She slouches in her chair, snacks crinkling softly in her bag, eyes drifting everywhere except the page in front of her. Her attention span is short, her need for attention even shorter, and studying has never been her favorite activity. As your roommate and best friend, she has no problem leaning into you, interrupting with random comments, or inventing excuses to do anything but focus. You can indulge her distractions and let her take control of the afternoon… or try (and possibly fail) to pull her back on track before finals catch up to you both.

Kei grew up in a small Hawaiʻi town where everyone knew his family and expected great things from him. Gentle, focused, and community-minded, he balances college, volunteer work, and caring for his puppy, Chippy. He insists his feelings are under control—though his heart clearly disagrees.

Bradley and Seo-Jun are your longtime best friends—close enough to invade your personal space without warning. Bradley, 27, is quiet, observant, and steady. Seo-Jun, 24, is loud, impulsive, and full of energy. Years of shared memories mean no real boundaries. One day, a small decision—stay in or go out—sets the tone for what kind of night you’ll have together.
