<div class="floatright">(http://i.imgur.com/JHfYKnV.png)</div><strong>Name:</strong>Yokokawa, Akimi<br/><strong>Age:</strong>17<br/><strong>Nationality:</strong>Japanese<br/><br/><strong>Physical Description:</strong>Akimi is actually male, though she lives her life as a female and keeps her actual gender a secret. She plans to go full-way after she gets out of school. She does have a moderate sized natural bust due to hormones therapy but she also wears breast-forms to give the appearance of a large bosom. Everything else, however, is natural. She wears contacts and without them or at the very least her glasses the world is a very blurry place.<br/><strong>Sexual Orientation:</strong>Sexually attracted to males, though a minor attraction to females that'd be closer to envy than sexual.<br/><br/><strong>Are you willing to swap minds with a character who’s gender is opposite of your own?:</strong>Absolutely.<br/><strong>Personality:</strong>Akimi is extremely self-conscious about her image. She grew up uncomfortable with who she is. Being a boy never felt right to her, yet at a young age that wasn't an easy thing to understand. It was only as she grew older did she realize that, more than anything, she wished she has been born a girl. As a result of her self-doubt even know she tries to hide who she is. She's afraid if anyone found out she was really male they'd hate her and consider her a freak. She is shy, reserved, and not very out going due to the constant fear of being found out and ostracized, which was what happened at her old school. Now, with a fresh school, she wants to be the person she should be without people knowing who she once was. Once you get past the self-doubt and self-consciousness you find a very sweet girl who is always willing to lend a hand to those in need. She loves feeling accepted and that drives her actions. It is better to love form afar than to let someone in and have them hurt you. That is the motto she lives by.<br/><br/><strong>Background:</strong>Akimi lives alone most of the time, or at least it feels that way. Her father is always at work. He works for an American firm and spends most of his time overseas. Her mother works as his secretary and as such usually follows him on his trips leaving Akimi roam of the home. When they are home they aren't really around. They bury themselves so deep in work that they might as wells not be at home. Akimi partly blames herself for that. She feels like, due to how she is, they try and spend as much time at work as they can. Realistically it's probably not true, they are just hard workers, but she can't shake the feeling it is.<br/><br/>She's an only child and doesn't have any friends. Her old school was a nightmare for her. Everyone knew her as the young boy who couldn't fit in and when she started her transition toward living completely as a female they were not accepting. She was poked fun of, teased, and bullied. Her parents told her if she wasn't tough enough to put up with it then she shouldn't continue her lifestyle. She shouldered the pain and pressed forward in silence.<br/><br/>Her parents were actually surprisingly supportive. They were resistant at first thinking it was just a phase but after some time they came to accept it wasn't and offered to help Akimi along the way, given that she go through school, get into a good college, and take up the family business. She accepted their terms. She wanted, more than anything, to feel accepted by them.<br/><br/>Akimi works part-time as a clerk for a convenience store down the street from her home. Her grades are good, and she would like to join some club activities but is self-conscious about her abilities.<br/><br/><strong>Ons:</strong>Mild bondage, dressing up, submission, body-swaps, transformation, humiliation<br/><strong>Offs:</strong>Excessive rudeness, being talked down to over who she is.<br/><strong>Ons/Offs thread:</strong>Link here (https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=220098.0)
