Appearance:
Keijo stands around average at 5' 9”, though he tends to seem 5’8” or 5’7” due to the slouch that has begun to take over his once proud albeit awkward posture. His skin tone is an ivory color with warm undertones, something that helps him seem a bit less sickly. Freckles is something that Keijo most certainly has. Everywhere, nonetheless. He’s basically the reason why some people have none. He took them. He took all of them. He’s covered in freckles. Head to toe. It’s simply a sea of freckles.
--
Keijo has a heart face shape, meaning his chin is smaller with larger cheeks at the ears and then a forehead that is only a bit smaller than his cheeks. His cheeks aren’t as full as they could be, but they are full enough to not be worrying, especially considering the circumstances. Now for the nose, he has a straight nose, meaning that while it’s straight(ha, couldn’t be him) and relatively normal, it’s a bit straighter than most. His lips are downturned in shape, but relatively average when it comes to fullness. His most commonly seen expression used to be polite, kind smiles given to practically everyone. Nowadays, it’s shifted into a tiny smile or straight lines.
--
His eyebrows are average in thickness, and with a slight, casual arch. Finally, his eyes are a deepset round shape and are a light blue speckled with white and light gray, giving off the impression of the sky. There’s light eye bags underneath them hinting at the lower amount of sleep he’d been getting recently too, but they aren’t horrible just yet. His top lashes are rather thick too, though his lower ones are about average if not a bit thicker, honestly.
--
His face is framed by hair that’s the color of a Mountain Bluebird’s blue, it has some waves but overall it’s fairly straight. It goes down to his shoulders, so he usually has it in a tiny, loose ponytail. Not like that keeps it out of his eyes though, it always manages to get back in his face. So he’s glad that he doesn’t have an absurd amount of bags, otherwise he probably wouldn’t be able to see at all.
--
His body structure could quickly be described as rectangular. Everything about his structure screams that he’s definitely more so built for agility than muscle, though he certainly has enough muscle to at least hold his own in hand-to-hand if he gets a few lucky shots until he can at least grab his whittling/carving knife or some other weapon. He weighs a good 136, with his BMI at a perfectly healthy 20.08 without taking into consideration the wings. Speaking of the wings- As for the feathery wings that fairies have? He has the ones of a Mountain Bluebird.
--
When it comes to scars, Keijo has quite the collection. Most of them are from his most recent escape from death. But let’s start with the oldest ones first. He has one that goes along his right cheek from standing up for one of his little sisters against a customer at the bakery from before the flower shop had been opened. He has one at his left eyebrow, basically splitting it in two, from roughhousing with his brothers a bit too much. He’s got what looks like they’re from claws at his torso, from his first brush with death where his blood father ended up saving him and got killed instead.
--
When it comes to fashion and attire, Keijo is certainly a bit more… Eccentric, than most. He loves bright colors, soft textures, and cool tones. And so, he usually ends up wearing that kind of stuff.
--
One of his most oftenly worn outfits is probably a maya blue, loose, bamboo fabric turtleneck with sky blue cotton cargo pants and an egyptian blue cotton belt. Along with that though, he also has dyed royal blue leather boots. All made with clothing that are shades of blue that he dyed himself. He also has a prussian blue, bamboo fabric jacket that he wears. And another prussian blue one for the colder months that has some fur at the hood, which he also dyed sky blue.
--
When it comes to jewelry and tattoos? He doesn’t have any, other than the fairy opalescent tattoos that he has swirling his arms all the way up his neck. But that’s all. He doesn’t really wear jewelry. He’s thought about it a few times, but he’s kind of decided that if he wears any- It’ll be jewelry that has meaning to him, or that was given to him by someone he cares about. Which hasn’t happened yet, so he doesn’t wear any.
--
Other than all of this, he does have a sheath attached to his belt along with a few packs(all of which are brightly colored) that hold the tools for his whittling and carving hobbies. The colored sheathed holds his prized colored carving/whittling knife.
Personality:
Keijo is sweet, calm, confident, and reserved. He tends not to speak to new people much, tends to stick to people he already knows and cares about. He wouldn’t talk to any of the human town’s girls who’d stare at him and his brothers, though they certainly had fun with them. The girls had already said that it gave him an air of confidence, thinking he didn’t need them. He wouldn’t talk to much of anyone, at least not regularly. Other than his family, maybe.
--
When Keijo did talk to people, he always tried his best to be polite. Polite, kind, considerate. He always tried to be as inoffensive as possible, always tried to seem less awkward than he really was. He never was able to get rid of his stutter though. Especially when lying about controversial things that he cared about. He knew the consequences, but he also just was never a fan of lying. Lying always made him feel sick to the stomach. It still does.
--
Loyalty had meant more to him than some inborn feeling about lying though. Loyalty to his family, loyalty to their trust in him… And maybe, he had wanted to prove himself. Maybe he had felt a bit distanced from them, being the only one to ever truly take after his father. Like he had disgraced them, like he could only ever burden them. Especially after his blood father had gotten himself killed to save him when he was younger. He still regrets it. He regrets leaving him to die out of fear too. He’d gotten out, surely he could’ve gotten him out too. He has a lot of regrets.
--
Hmm… This has been mostly about him and how he was before the death of his father, hasn’t it? Well, let’s go over how he is now then.
--
Nowadays? Guilt and regret about the past makes it all too easy for him to try and blame himself for every mistake. He can’t say sorry about what happened to his family because of him, so he should say sorry for everything else. If he can say sorry for everything else then maybe he’d be forgiven for the past too. He doubts that, but the thought process makes it easier for him. He doesn’t want to think about how his family would scoff, laugh, and roll their eyes at him, tell him to forgive himself already and move on with his new friends. He doesn't want to think about that, because it wouldn’t change how he feels. And he definitely feels.
--
Keijo feels deeply, he’s an emotional guy. Anger is deep, but fast and without grudges. Sadness is deep, and he’ll cry. He’d cry for hours if given the opportunity. And even happiness, when he can look past the guilt and regrets and underlying feeling of the happiness not being deserved, he feels it deeply too. He’ll laugh, smile, and joke. Whatever he feels, he feels it deeply. Including love, he doesn’t fall fast. But he does fall deep.
--
When it comes to trust nowadays? Keijo is a lot more skeptical of people than he used to be. He used to believe the good in people, used to think that peace was possible between everyone, used to trust people to do the right thing. Now though, he simply can’t think like that. He’s more suspicious of people, less trusting in their morals and judgments.
--
When he does trust and care about someone though, it definitely shows. He’s willing to do anything to protect those he cares about. He’s lost people already, and he doesn’t want to lose anyone else. He’d rather die himself before he lets anything happen to the people he cares about.
--
He is deeply interested in learning in general, to be honest. He loves to learn, loves to help, loves to read, and loves to write. There was a reason he had been saving up for books instead of anything else. Teaching and learning and helping is what he lives for. Especially now, given that there isn’t much else for him to live for. Other than his family, and maybe to eventually do enough right that he’s forgiven for his wrongs.
