[ooc] app part 2 - personality
Kazumi is certainly a rather genial person. He's polite, cheerful, and pleasant to be around. He rarely loses his temper or raises his voice, but by the same token he doesn't often get very outspoken. He's a good conversationalist, knowing a great deal about many classical subjects and weaving them into his words as metaphors or comparisons. To people he knows, he's friendly and helpful, going out of his way to help make ends meet. With friends he tends to be playful and likes to gently tease or otherwise have fun. He always seems to be on top of things, as if very little escapes his notice.
Then again, Kazumi is also hiding quite a bit. At heart he is a nice person, but that niceness has mainly become a facade for the madness that has been raging within him the past two years. Crazy is one way to put it. Strangely driven is another. He uses everything he can to further his goals. Being nice to people and making friends is actually cultivating potential pawns. While he smils and nods, internally he's taking stock of who he can use, or what he must do to ensure cooperation. He is willing to exploit everything he can reach, and even some things he can't. People are simply tools, to be used as necessary and then thrown away. Thus, the people he charms, the friends he makes, everything he learns or works toward is simply for the means of completing his end goal.
This of course means that ultimately he's a very selfish person. But that selfishness he masks behind a semblance of caring. What he does is of course meant to help better the world! How could anyone stand against something so noble? Those who refused to follow through with the original plans were simply cowards who couldn't stand up when it came down to it. Due to these previous trust issues, especially with people he thought were his comrades, he keeps his cards close to his chest. He'll get people to help him, but will only reveal his plans when the time is right. Thus, those who get closest to him have the most likely chance of seeing the true side of Kazumi, the one that's succumbed to insanity - as well as to be used up and thrown away as he tries to better himself. Those who try to oppose him are also those who would go against the betterment of the world, and obviously lack the understanding to realize that what he is trying to do is for the good of the world and themselves as well! This lends him a slight paranoia, as he prefers to control when people discover his motivations rather than them finding out themselves. Everything he does is under lock and key, or password, or encryption.
