Takumi Kagezuchi

Tak




Dressed in typically gender neutral clothing, or failing that without overt touches of femininity in public. Only when require, does Takumi generally dress in a specific way, typically seen when she’s dressed in some sort of skirt or the like for a date. Any other situation typically relies on Takumi’s easygoing/lazy personality and to keep cool.



Takumi is a likable, easy going but a noted lazy individual. Prone to lounging or trying to make others do things that she needn’t attend to, but had assigned to her. Still she views these small things as debts and does her best to try and reward kindness from others and loyalty.

Despite the noted character flaws when doing something she does tend to quickly focus and works quickly or in a manner she views as most efficient to solve the problem. This can often be seen as aggressive like when she pilots or fights, but her easy going nature can also have her just as likely waiting a situation out.

Her family situation while complicated and depending on the subject a sour spot, she does view herself closely to her siblings, especially with her sisters. Although like any big sister proud of someone, she holds a soft spot for her younger brother.



Born during the stabilizing period in history Takumi herself was born into the Kagezuchi family via a mistress much to the wife’s annoyance. Officially Takumi was adopted after the mistress herself goaded the Kagezuchis into believing she had the family’s potentially first born son. Something that the Kagezuchi’s various branches were having trouble achieving. After receiving a settlement and Takumi herself was delivered the obvious was quickly discovered but the woman herself had fled leaving the Kagezuchis with another daughter.

With no other part of the family willing to take the child in Kyo and Hina Kagezuchi raised the girl. The girl’s new mother would have little to do with the child leaving most mundane things to the girl’s elder sisters Natsuki and Satsuki and eventually when old enough a sister the same age as her named Yukari. The family itself based primarily in medical research was quick to try and apply Takumi into her studies to enter the field. If nothing else Hina was keen to make Takumi useful and applied plenty of pressure as schooling began. It wouldn’t be until the youngest of the children would be born and finally gave Kyo and Hina the boy they wanted. This quickly left Takumi without even the scolding push to try and excel now that Hina felt Takumi was next to useless. By the end of Primary School Takumi had entered a delinquent stage and focused on her own self interest. It wouldn’t be until the second year of her middle schooling through constant efforts from her sisters that Takumi began to reapply herself, more motivated to prove to her mother that she was something to be proud of.

Focusing on another field of study Takumi kept working, although despite efforts she did keep up the reputation of delinquency for some time. Still at the same time she had overcome lingering feelings of animosity to her younger brother and tried to be a good sister when she was able to pry her little brother Takuya away from her mother. Constant work, put up against habitual laziness impeded progress but whatever situation Takumi was put in she did well to try and deal with it. The only issue however was ultimately funding any further schooling. Her mother forbade any spending that might take away from Yukari and Takuya’s chances and left Takumi herself in a difficult situation.
Not wanting to be stuck in a menial job, Takumi applied for a position within the military hoping to build up money and using it as a reputation boost for any application purposes if she got a more permanent job. There was little expectation from Takumi as she began her training but quickly and much to her own surprise she excelled. Instead of continuing into a civilian sector Takumi refocused herself into the military. Her personality and attitude kept her from rising too far, but with skill and the just right personality to keep subordinates happy Takumi was settled into running small squads or fire teams of mobile suits. Her interest in technical and mechanical skills also lead her to pursue a few classes to try and branch out into the fields she previous wanted to explore, but mobile suit training and preparation had been cutting into any extra time she had available.
