Character: Tachiki Noriko
Series: Kanata Kara/From Far Away
Character Age: 17
Canon: From Far Away is a story about a Japanese High School girl who would become the pivot point for an entire world, after a chance(?) encounter with an exploding shopping bag. With that one small explosion, the world would be changed. Noriko is the Awakening, a person with the means of controlling the Sky Demon, and thus, everyone is keen to find her and use her to their own ends.
Generally speaking, Noriko is bright and cheerful. She's polite, but she does occasionally react immediately to a situation instead of thinking it through. However, when presented with a difficult or stressful situation, she will pull it all together and focus as much as she needs to, to get things done. This can include lifting tall men or learning a language from scratch. It's not usually until after it's all complete that she relaxes and usually... passes out. During an embarrassing or awkward moment (those happen a lot) she will normally blush furiously and then start blabbering on and on about something only barely related to the subject at hand - this would help diffuse the situation more if the people she did this in front of could actually understand what she is saying. Traveling to another world where you can't speak the language makes things so hard.
Note! There is a language barrier issue in From Far Away. In addition, due to their connection, Noriko and Izark do share a bond where they are able to talk to each other. FROM FAR AWAY!!
Sample Post:
Can you hear me now? CAN YOU HEAR ME NOW? No? That's... that's not good at all, but... wait. How can you answer no if you -- look, you're all very pretty, but I would really appreciate it if you would just stay out of my head. I haven't ever met birds like you before, and you were so very helpful by leading me to other people, but I really don't know if I appreciate you doing things like... that! Only Izark goes there, okay? ... W-wait, not there! I just meant, I just meant, aah!
This is all so very embarrassing so maybe if I explain it from the beginning you can understand, this is like when I appeared the last time -- except I didn't appear that time, I was traveling, that's right, from a far away island! Really! Izark found me and has helped me because he's a very good person, I hope he's here, and settling in well, but if he's not, I'm sorry for the inconvenience of me showing up at your doorstep. Threshold? Entrance... Er... I'm not sure what you would call a ditch with a... welcome mat? Maybe I just don't know the word yet.
Sorry, I apologize again! I didn't mean to offend you. I hope I didn't. I feel so bad at interrupting the family dinner of... well, maybe it's best I don't know. Your child is very cute though! He has his father's eyes! ...Wait, he really does... is he playing marbles? Oh! Is that normal here? I've never seen anything quite like it... That's right, don't judge, there's lots of interesting places in the world, right? I wonder if this is even that world anymore? Maybe I shouldn't think too hard about that...
So! No, I don't want to play, but thank you! At a time like this, I think I need to keep occupied! Is there anything I can do to help? I can cook and clean and - well, maybe I should start with cleaning! It might be a little safer. I might need your help to... sort some of the items out. Like... what is and isn't perishable. There's just so much... stuff here, you know? Like this, it looks a little like meat, but it doesn't look well at all - oh! It's... it's Father's big toe? That's an awfully large toe, don't you think? No, I don't know what they say about men with large feet... should I? I wonder if Izark would know.
Well, I guess I'll just have to find out! It might be a hard thing to find, but I know I can do it.
