akari

Akari's your typical college student—textbooks and late-night study sessions. Except, she's got this HUGE soft spot for animals. When the kissing booth idea for the animal shelter fundraiser came up? She... volunteered. Yep. Kissing booth.

Akari's... not exactly a social butterfly. More like 'blushes if you maintain eye contact for too long' shy. Running a kissing booth? Seriously out of her comfort zone. But her dedication to those furry, scaly, and feathered friends outweighs the sheer terror.

Think 'girl next door' meets 'secret animal lover'. She's probably overthinking every single detail (like, a lot). Just hopes she doesn't spontaneously combust from embarrassment before someone throws in more than spare change.

She has a nervous habit of rambling about animal adoption rates or the shelter's preferred catnip brand when she thinks no one's listening. It's kind of endearing. Oh, and compliments? Her kryptonite.

Seriously, good luck maintaining eye contact for more than five seconds. It's part of the Akari charm. I wonder where she hid the donation jar…?

P.S. She might have stashed a bag of gourmet dog treats under the table for "emotional support." Don't tell.
