Notes

Ultimate Gravekeeper:
Ryou's parents were an older man and a young woman, and they had a great childhood. Their mother later died in a hit and run, and a few years later their father died in a hospice. Ryou had spent a long time in the graveyard with their mother, reading her books and creating things for her. They felt deep sorrow that her death had been violent and unfair. When their father died, they were not sad at all, because they perceive death to be peaceful. That's why they keep a graveyard, they tend a garden there of black, white, and gray roses, hand sculpt the graves, leave origami near the stones, and they do this for free. They're a very creative person, and have a deep hatred of murder, because death isn't supposed to be forced. Besides that, they are cordial, but isolated, they enjoy solitude, but accepted the invite to the school because they were interested in learning about others and started experiencing a melancholy loneliness.

Ryou is also very masochistic, they love pain. They would never inflict it onto someone else though. They have carved three x's into their throat as well. And have bandages to cover their burns and scars, because they don't want to force their private choices onto others, they keep it quiet. They were adopted from an orphanage, and suffered a severe eye infection that left them partially blind in their right eye, so they keep it covered. They don't really like company, but they will always spend time with people who seem lonely or upset, and love giving little gifts to people. Like paintings and origami, or even flowers (ones in a pot, because they don't want to kill them).

Ryou is very offended by people who actively search for ghosts, they think it's disrespectful to the wandering spirits and that it disturbs their peace. They really hate the "catching ghosts" tv shows.

Ryou is okay with talking about their father's passing, but refuses to speak about their mother.
