Kashira Enaga ((MIRROR/Shrine AU))

Kashira and Enaga's childhood was the same up until the age of 8; He was born with a strange illness that would cause him frequent dissociative episodes and memory blanks. He moved with his family to a new region, and spent most of his childhood being raised by his older brother Wanara, due to their parents working overtime. His parents desperately searched for a diagnosis and cure for his illness, and therefore their case became a popular gossip amongst the medical community. In this time, the Hawk Party did not become interested in his case, and Kashira continued to live more-or-less peacefully with his loving household.

Some time sooner, a doctor indeed became interested in Kashira's case. Due to how surrealistucally severe it was, he became diagnosed with a (*fictional) neurological disorder, characterized by short term memory, and dissociation caused by lack of stimulation. He was suspected to actually have Dissociative Personality Disorder, but the fact that he was born with it, and didn't develop it from a traumatic experience is what debunked the theory. Furthermore, in his dissociative state, Kashira appears to be very quiet and lightheaded, not willing to answer questions, and behaves more like someone in a sleep-walking state. He'd repeat simple wishes and questions, but the answer never actually reaches him. A very alien, and very contrasting-to-his-default-state personality. Kashira himself claims that it's not a split personality, as it doesn't have any opinions, likes, and dislikes, or a name. He himself describes it as an autopilot mode, or something very similar to the 'high' after anesthesia.

At the age of 10, Kashira underwent brain surgery (and therapy) to correct his apparently misshapen insides. Everything went by perfectly. The only aftermath of that is that he will need to take very specific medication all his life to keep his attacks as rare and minor as possible. Assigned to his case was doctor Kakezu.

Shaving his head at that age was the most stressful part to the young boy. Despite receiving almost solely sympathy and being praised for his bravery, he thought he looked hideous, and paired with his round and chubby bodytype, kind of hated his appearance. He swore to never cut his hair completely short ever again.

Kashira was picked to join St. Pigeonation's halfly for his slightly-above-average skills in all subjects, but mostly by sheer luck.

Soon after attending the school, Kashira's life became just a little lackluster again, when his brother Wanara 'became' disabled. Though he always was the sunshine among him and his brother, the situation weighed down on Kashira enough that his social life decreased even further. And so, the boy turned to the world of fiction as some way of escaping. Wanara seemed glad that Kashira never began treating him over-the-top differently after the incident, and that also motivated Kashira to not dwell on his apparently peaceful brother too much.

Kashira does have his own issues. Even if he brushes it off as a joke, and generally never becomes depressed over anything, and yes, really, he doesn't fullon hate it, but he always felt simply unsatisfied with his appearance, and instead admired the commercialized standards for beauty. He became inspired by celebrities (such as Rika Kuchinawa, or Tohri Nishikikouji). Besides the new problem arising with his brother, Kashira was unsatisfied with his own body, and developed the new ambition to body-build himself. And like a fairy godmother, a very particular bird decided to help him with it... Doctor Iwamine.

Kashira is not very bright, and he doesn't read suspicious clues clearly. Since Shuu Iwamine is so esteemed and a genius, surely he doesn't have any bad intentions... Kashira thought, and regularly allowed Shuu to inject and feed him a mysterious drug. The effects were not immediate, but when Kashira continued his regularly scheduled workouts and rich-in-everything-diet, over the course of just one year he gained a ridiculous amount of muscle and his hair became more luxuriant than ever! And he got taller, too.

His body became just as he desired. But in exchange for that, the usage of this hormone drug seems to affect his neurological disorder. He often has episodes of dissociation, and thus, afraid of worrying his already stressed brother and family, Kashira is starting to distance himself. He is very shy about his disorder, and would feel pretty distressed if someone he admired had to witness one of his strange dissociative episodes. He doesn't want to be pitied or catch unnecessary attention, he only wants to receive positive attention. He wants to be a cool shounen protagonist, not the sidekick that'll end up being vulnerable and die near the season finale.

Luckily, Kashira is easy to please. He doesn't require much to be happy, and more above all, he wants to impress someone and fall in a pure kind of love. He wants a cute boyfriend that he can carry in his huge arms and who will like the same manga as he does!

Ah, what could this school year have in store for him? Can this buff bushtit find the love of his life, I wonder?
