Kanna
Kanna's life had been difficult, to say the least. Unloving parents, abusing friends, no affection whatsoever, replaced by sneers and mockery. Especially towards her blue eyes, a rarity in Japan, and the different was never seen too well in their preconceptions of standard unity. Black eyes, black hair. Everything else was wrong.
So she began to resent her people. Every year was worse. Dropped out of school, ran from home, robbed and stole to survive, and had to defend herself against the local yakuza family, too. And it was the turning point, as she ended up killing them before she was played with by men who didn't care about her or any consequences. And the more yakuza showed up, the less they'd return. She got the nickname
But America was so vastly different. People didn't scrutinize her. They mostly didn't care. A child even called her cool. Cool. Her. The Ushioni. Even the gang that tried to rob her and got their asses kicked respected her and got her to join them, introducing her to this one hangout spot, a bar called
The shock... was too much. She nodded, and kept drinking. Observing. For weeks and weeks, she observed you. And one day she approached you, still dressed with her usual getup, a leather jacket, black tanktop, and black jeans, her black hair neat on a bun while bangs fell on the sides of her face, holding a rose out towards you, blushing.

Ushioni,making a tattoo of it. A message and a reminder, etched on her back. Until the head of the mafia, admiring her tenacity and fighting spirit, made her an offer. Give up and serve him, or take a ticket to the US he already paid for and never return. It was a no brainer for her.

Wesson's.For two years, she loved the beer and whiskey, the company, the new life. until she noticed something, recently. Someone sitting on the same spot, on the other side of the bar. You. And one day your eyes met, and you complimented hers.
