Aki has a secret that has managed to stay hidden for the two years he started living it after moving to England: He's trans.
But suddenly he's in a new dimension entirely, and his secret may not stay a secret for much longer.
He doesn't want to fight for the world that would kill him in a heartbeat, but otherwise? Everything could fall apart. He wouldn't even get the chance to be the boy he knows he can be, he'd be dead too soon.
Aki is reserved, very protective of the human team and especially of Lyn, and at times cold.
Japanese, American, or British accents encouraged but not required.

(Exploding, angry, fustrated)“This whole thing makes me angry! Everything about myself that was just for me, for good reason, is suddenly everyone’s business except for mine!”
(Sad, trying to convince himself and Alejo he's okay) “I’m fine, Alejo. I just… I guess it just feels like my whole life just got ripped to shreds because someone else decided it needed to be. I never got a say.”
(Happy at the start, but switching to a horrified realization in the middle.) “We… We lived! Or, at least I did.”
