Appearance
Solaris's height stands at 5'9" with long, dark lashes over his emerald eyes. His natural hair-color is a light brown though commonly he dyes the tips. His ears are pierced and he wears hexagon glasses to compliment his appearance.
For the most part he opts for soft turtlenecks, fairly on the stylish side of things because his admirers often recommend things for him to wear out of magazines or when he takes them on outings.
Personality
With the right price, Solaris's loyalties can flip as fast as the snap of a finger (with
very few exceptions). Though at times he can emit warmth, always putting on a friendly smile and maintaining physical contact when most convenient for himself, other times that comforting upward turn of his lips can seem chilling– almost cruel.
Gentle, friendly, some attitudes that Solaris wields to get what he wants. How much is a front and how much is his true self he isn't sure. The only thing he can really trust is his constant
hunger for a thrill.
Solaris
loves to get his blood pumping. 'Leap before you look' is always his policy when it comes to 'fun'.
Love isn't something he quite understands yet, but he's constantly searching for the heart-thumping sensation– the 'promise' bestowed upon him by romantic fairytales and visual novels.
Sometimes it's almost as if he gets lost in his own head when faced with a choice-- 'options' are harder for him to think through than 'orders'.

History
Solaris's earliest memories extend to a shabby, two room apartment. Snapped crayons scattered all across the floor as the smell of cigarettes clinging to the fabric of his clothes. Their mother was a complete airhead, spending time with men who couldn't care less for her and more often spent nights out of the house than within. Not that she didn't love her kids, that's what wounded Solaris the most. Compared to everything else in the world, they were at the bottom of her priorities. Neither Luna nor Solaris had a concrete father figure, the men around them changing as frequently as the weather.
One day, their mother left the house and simply didn't come back. Loan sharks soon made their presence known, as long as Solaris did as they asked, they wouldn't strip them away from their home. The boy would often find himself bumping against strangers on the streets, stolen wallets filling his pockets to meet quotas. Anything to keep them together, his baby sister being his only anchor in a world full of uncertainties.
However, soon enough he was caught red handed. Perhaps his technique was too sloppy, but an adult caught his wrist and took a
long look at him. The next thing he knew was he was sitting at a ramen shop, the old man who caught him treating him to a meal, Solaris taking a single bite before saving the rest for his sister.
The old man criticized his state– too skinny, too complacent, too much like a puppet than he'd like. Unfortunately over the years, that didn't change but the old man brought the two into his home.
In Solaris's mind the boundaries still applied, he'd follow the man's orders to a tee for as long as he offered his sister safety, not quite understanding exactly
why he took him in, but did that really matter as long as the result was good?
Though to this day even though the debts were paid, he still finds straggling loan sharks now and then, attempting to pull him back into the life he'd lived before. He usually gives up his money without a fit, leisurely spending his days as a student being spoiled by girls and boys alike with too much cash– trading chocolates for kisses against the hand, or spending a week being doted on by Solaris in-exchange for video-games.
However, perhaps it was from his time constantly having his adrenaline pumping on the streets that led him to help manage the Lover's Club today. The promise of wild antics, continuously confronting the all time high of love itself… For as long as the members can keep him entertained, Solaris didn't mind letting them use him to his fullest.
Relationships
Relationships:
Luna Kousei-
Solaris's eleven-year old baby sister. She likes to pretend she's much more mature than her age. Often she whines about how clingy Solaris can get. The 18-year old student would retain his right to remain silent in this regard. She claims she'll marry Hanae's younger brother (Haru) when she grows older.
Haruhi Nakamura -
First an easy mark to mooch
hundreds of dollars on, now a comrade in 'arms' so to speak. Close enough that he'd go to her when in a foul mood (whether that's to pick on her or simply rant), or just someone Sol can genuinely let his guard down with-- Haruhi is probably one of his closer friends. To him, their relationship could be thought of as one of those glass windows where there's a tiny hole to touch. He likes to challenge her beliefs, serving as her opposition-- they certainly don't see eye-to-eye on many matters. He likes to joke about how embarrassing it is that Haruhi knows how 'edgy' he was as a kid.
Ren Fujiwara -
Ren is someone Sol is fairly fond of (he often says that Ren is his favorite Kouhai, quickly after the other fills his pockets). Though by no means is Ren free from his witty comebacks as Solaris is not
that easy. Though from an outsider's viewpoint-- Luna's in particular, she absolutely
loathes the way her brother's phone would '
brring!' to life with a summon and the 3rd year merrily would be out the door in seconds. What can he say? It's the Pavlov effect. Not that he'd admit that perhaps even without the money, the promise of exhilaration was enough to get him running.
Hanae Niijima -
Solaris's friendly neighbor of whom helps to take care of Luna. He doesn't mind her company nor when she appears at get-togethers his interim-grandfather arranges. Solaris supposes it doesn't hurt to have someone his age around during occasions where the adults take about matters that doesn't really concern him. He's awfully wary of her little brother however, not too keen on allowing a mere eight-year old to snatch his sister away.

Extra
- Solaris works part-time at a fairytale themed café, run by the old man who takes care of him.
- His favorite day is Valentine's Day considering all the free chocolate that he gets.
- Often falls prey (perhaps willingly) to his sister's shenanigans. Occasionally he's shown up to school with a full-face of makeup or cutesy hair-clips messily pushed into his hair.
- Solaris's glasses are prescription. He genuinely cannot see without them though he does own contacts.
