Ichiyanagi Hibana [KNB OC]

BOOM. aNoThEr OnE. Aomine never stood a chance. This one was actually specifically asked to be uploaded by a friend so- . ;w; hdegwdbhwjde. I just really love her okay. 

Name: Ichiyanagi Hibana (Last name, First name)

Age: 16

Birthday: June 9th  || Gemini

Height: 5′ 5

School: Tōō Academy || First Year

Clubs/Committees: N/A

Occupation(s): Student 

Personality: Ichiyanagi (Often prefers Ichiya for time’s sake), is a relatively bubbly and outgoing person. She’s talkative, and always up to date on the latest news. Her demeanor with new people can be questionable, depending on first impressions. Sometimes she can become a touch snarky and rude, as she’s definitely not opposed to letting people know how she feels about a situation.For the most part, she’s very open to new friendships, and can almost seem overenthusiastic. In cases when confronted with something she’s not interested in, she becomes preoccupied and bored, letting it be known that she’s not interested in the least. This behavior can honestly change on a whim, but typically directly relates to how much respect and affection she has for a person. Many of her old friends would have her undivided attention, despite talking about something she knew so little that she couldn’t even understand it. 

Ichiya is obsessed with cute things, and will often get so excited over things along those lines that she will gush for hours. She definitely can carry a conversation by herself, even with minimal input from the other person. She tends to get offended easily, and though her default would be to immediately throw a fit, she’s been working on assessing and appropriately handling her emotions so that she can think before she acts or speaks. It doesn’t always work, but... hey, there’s progress..(?)

Backstory/Story: Ichiya had always been a little of a problem child, though the problem was much worse when she was a young child. She was given anything she ever wanted, as well as a lot of attention from her father, effectively turning into quite the spoiled brat. She demanded attention from her peers, and when she didn’t get what she wanted, she resorted to being rude and mean to force it out of them. This behavior stayed relatively constant, only changing in the manner that it became more covert as she grew. With her mother remarried after her parents split, Ichiya became turbulent, but was forced to be more well-behaved at home with her father not present to condone her bad behavior.

Come middle school, she had befriended two girls that each shared the struggles of a chaotic background and home situation, introducing her to a wider perspective and scope of people. Though they were practically a small-scale gang, what with all the members they assembled and their somewhat questionable activities, the group satiated her craving for rebellion, and helped her vent out her anger, stress, and frustration. 

Her mother and step father, voiced concerns over her behavior, deciding to try and remedy the problem by reaching out to the parents of her friends to get them involved. As a result, the gang was disbanded, and the three ring leaders now all attend different schools. Without her friends and followers, and having her fill on large-scale rebellion, Ichiya began to slowly cool down. After attending  Tōō with her step sister, Sasai Miu, the most pressing problems for her became her grades and conduct. 

Her sister, a part of the school’s student council, decided to try getting her assistance, by asking her friend and council member Imayoshi to try helping her. Reluctantly, Imayoshi agreed, and began with simple tutoring and attempts at keeping her near to keep her out of trouble - varying degrees of success... mostly failures. During practice, he kept her on the sidelines, where Ichiya would be preoccupied with her phone -instead of her homework-, and socializing or occasionally watching. She trailed Aomine out when the coast was clear, considering it seemed he was also ditching his responsibilities, and adapted his rooftop space as her hideaway. 

They could talk, and she was satisfied with someone that didn’t immediately judge her behavior, as well as him satisfied with someone similarly not chastising him for skipping out on practice. Due to one of her friends from middle school, Kuroda Yoruko, having an interest in basketball, Ichiya asks Aomine to teach her after noting his place with the team.  She persistently pesters him until he agrees, though she reasons that she only needs to know enough to bluff out her friend, should they meet up again. This continues almost in the form of lessons like a routine, and when Aomine resumes practice, they continue playing on the off time. It becomes therapeutic for Ichiya as well, and gives her something to focus her attention into, helping her to be overall more relaxed and less volatile. 

Relationships: 

Sasai Miu: Ichiya’s step sister. They got off on a rocky foot, and even now their relationship typically is one built on comedic jabs and refusal to honestly state their attachment to each other (Honestly, just Ichiya). Ichiya typically pokes with and teases Sasai for her naive and innocent demeanor, hammering in that with her stature as well, no one would ever guess that Sasai was the older of the two of them. Even though Sasai wants the best for Ichiya, and the latter will often reject her attempts at expressing love for her sister, Ichiya actually cares deeply for her step sister. She looks at Sasai as one of the few people that never gave up on her, nor tried to outright change who she was. For that reason, she is actually intensely protective over Sasai. 

Kuroda Yoruko: One of her close friends from middle school. Both of them related to each other regarding their turbulent home lives. They met initially due to an argument, one which they state out of embarrassment that they simply can’t remember the details of. It immediately turned ugly, and was interrupted by Yuda Ren, who later became their other friend. Though tension stayed between them for a time, they developed a mutual respect and a sort of kinship. By the end of their time in middle school, they were practically inseparable, though it didn’t have the chance to last into high school, as they were all separated. Kuroda’s parents, who are less involved with her life, didn’t actively move her away as the others’ did. She is attending Seirin, meaning she and Ichiya have the opportunity to catch up, and just simply haven’t yet had the opportunity. They still text often, and call when they can. Kuroda’s interest in basketball stuck out as a big point, enough for Ichiya to want to surprise her by learning a little. 

Yuda Ren: Not what you’d expect from your typical image of a borderline-middle-school-gang-leader with a turbulent home life. Yuda was academically excellent and typically well-mannered, coming from a fortunate background. She had a surprisingly confrontational personality, lining her charisma with snark and rudeness. Her contrast to Ichiya and Kuroda helped diversify their group and create a surprisingly balanced union. Yuda acted more as the mother figure, mediating between them when necessary, but actually genuinely enjoying their company. She found it a breath of fresh air that they weren’t immediately judgmental, and that she could be more relaxed with them. Her parents were incredibly disapproving however, and rather than just being sent to a different school, she was sent outside of Tokyo to attend Yosen. It’s a lot harder for Ichiya and Yuda to keep in contact outside of phone calls and texts, but Ichiya fears that too long of it will cause them to grow apart. 

Imayoshi Shoichi: He was put in charge of assisting her by Sasai’s request. Ichiya didn’t initially have much of an opinion on him, though she was disappointed that she couldn’t convince him to just do her work for her. She overall has more respect for him because of his standings with Sasai. Sasai highly respects him, and Ichiya is certain that ‘mutual respect’ isn’t the only way to describe their relationship standings. Save for Aomine, and later Momoi, she gets to know Imayoshi the best out of the Tōō team. 

Momoi Satsuki: She didn’t really get the opportunity to know her well in the beginning, especially because she ditched the practices a lot. She had assumed that Momoi’s demeanor would put her off, and that they wouldn’t get along, but much to her surprise, Ichiya admired the amount of spunk Momoi possessed on top of her more girly attitude. The two hit it off before too long, and sometimes would completely leave Aomine out of their plans to hang out together instead. It still drives him crazy. 

Hashida Kaiyo: Hashida was more of Momoi’s business than Ichiya, so considering the two had their issues, Ichiya stayed out of it. after Hashida and Momoi managed to repair their differences, they occasionally began to hang out together along with a few others, though it was a tough effort to eventually pull them together. Ichiya and Hashida get along rather well, though more than Momoi, Hashida fuels Ichiya’s need for the darker side of socialization, and is never short on gossip.
