Caroline for Asahina Mafuyu
Mafuyu is an honor student and the only one in her circle who regularly attends school. She constantly receives good grades and is a member of the archery club (with Shizuku) as well as the student council. She is said to excel in both academics and sports, hence people often put high hopes for her to excel in everything she does. They don't know what they've done to her.
Mafuyu is admired for her smarts, athleticism, and the humble sincerity she shows that keeps any praise for these talents out of her mouth. She is known to be kind, generous, and considerate, her words always polite and her voice soft and warm. She is difficult, arguably impossible, to anger, for any hesitation she shows that might betray disagreement or displeasure is immediately covered with a gentle "smile". She is someone whom others are not afraid to rely on, and someone whom others often put high hopes on, knowing that she has met expectations before and will continue to do so.
To everyone else, Mafuyu is a "good girl." However, to herself and behind the mask, she lacks emotion, empathy, and apathy; abandoned by her true self a long time ago, she is desperately searching to find herself once again. Mafuyu’s "true personality" - or, at the very least, the person she is when there is no one else watching - is considerably more cold and blunt. Her voice is dull and her face is flat, both holding no feeling for she has none to show. She speaks few words, and the words she does speak tend to be no more than what is needed. The polite consideration she is expected to have, that colors the sentences she crafts for others, is nowhere to be heard. While she is not pleasant or "good," she is honest - as honest as she has the capacity for. It’s only within her cold honesty are her true feelings, her true self, given the slightest chance to show themselves, and the other members of 25-ji, Nightcord de. recognize this in their willingness to offer a space where she can be "rehabilitated."

[Mafuyu's Happy birthday event]
"...I think I'm done with the lyrics. Next, I'd have to fine-tune it... Oh... It's already 2:30 AM..."
[Mafuyu talking to her parents]
"(cheery or genuine sounding) Today? Let's see... I was asked a rather difficult question in math class. (Mafuyu asks if she got it right) Yes. I prepared properly for the class, after all."
[Mafuyu is now in her room by herself]
"(still cheery/genuine) Our pride and joy, huh... (self-doubt inner monologue) Really? Even though these words that dad and mom wanted to hear are coming out of my mouth on their own?"
