Kafuka Fuura (pen name) | Reims Academy AU History (work in progress)
Kafuka was born to a troubled Japanese family, growing up the middle daughter of three. In her household, trouble seemed to follow them wherever they went, be it financially or mentally or otherwise. Her father wasn't able to keep a steady job and her mother was constantly depressed, attempting to keep track of her children. Despite that, she learned in grade school that keeping an optimistic mind will make things better in the end. Therefore, Kafuka found herself keeping an optimistic mindset about everything, as harsh as it may seem. Regardless of what trouble her parents went into and the neglect that the two had on her as a result, she always managed to keep a skewed yet positive view of the world in her eyes.
Though, as a result, there were some problems with this mindset: a belief that doing things differently is good as well. Due to this, in Junior High, she stopped using her real name in school, instead becoming known as "Kafuka Fuura", a pen name that she had come up with. Teachers never asked why she changed her name, simply dismissing it as a nickname that she preferred to be called. The signs that there was something off never really came to the teachers, however, as time went on, her positivity started having adverse effects on her psyche. Even death itself had an optimistic side, and at one point, she had cut herself with the idea that she could be resurrected and become a deity.
Her parents had thought of two things: the fact that Kafuka seemed to be growing more and more deliriously optimistic, and the fact that they wouldn't be able to support three people in their household for much longer. Therefore, they decided to pool whatever savings they had left and sent her to school at Reims Academy, in order to get her away from the house and allow her to live on her own, not thinking of what could happen as a result. Though it was explained that she was going to live there until she was done with school, Kafuka believes that it's part of an extended vacation.
