friends
While she's not the blossoming social butterfly other girls are, Miki is not unkind. She can, however, be openly critical and sometimes a tad bit blunt (traits inherited from a family that has no filter for constructive criticism) with people she becomes close to. She has a love for alternative music but doesn't cling to one genre. She's a movie and t.v. buff but don't ask her anything about Broadway because all she knows is that it's a theater in New York. Besides photography and a love for visual entertainment, she has an affinity for cooking.

Don't ever try one of her pastries, sweets or cookies if you want to live. Bless her, she keeps trying but she's horrible at it.

It would be good for her to have a few new friends so she doesn't have to stick to the gossipy crowd over at the Yearbook Club.



lovers
Never been kissed is her status and she considers herself in a state of sexual limbo. Miki hasn't labeled herself heterosexual because she's never had a boyfriend or a boy openly interested in her at all. She's also a believer in that humans have different levels of heterosexuality and homosexuality (which explains why she's trying to perfect the Kinsey Scale in her head) so if a girl shows interest in her it wouldn't be cause for disgust or embarrassment.

Those rumors about her and Suzy Pepper (which stemmed from helping her get to an ambulance after that whole black pepper incident in 9th grade) are as much action as she's seen (supposedly).

She's single and, as cheesy as it sounds, ready to mingle.




enemies
Someone somewhere is bound to hate her, or at least dislike her. Just as Miki has a loathing of slushies and the gargantuan football players that stalk about tossing them in people's faces, someone in the school should dislike her. Whether it be because of something catty and shallow or because of a wrong perception of the girl, no one in high school leaves unscathed by the hatred of others. She'll deal with it the way she knows how: run away and hide out with a stack of bento boxes. Whenever she gets the nerve she'll probably act out on it, but not normally.

She's a determined girl, but she's not exactly brave all of the time.
