Guess who got so caught up in the last day of IdolCon that they forgot to post yesterday? It’s me... anyway today will be a double post to make up for it. Starting with what was meant to be yesterday’s post for day four, with the bassist of Tricyrtis, Kaida Ryuuen!
One of the later members to join the band, she wasn’t particularly involved in the idea of making it, but she helped complete it. She was recruited by Yumeru, as they’ve been classmates for a couple years and were fully aware of each other’s instrument experience.
She comes off as very cool and confident, almost effortless in how she acts. There’s plenty she puts into that appearance, but it’s not deceptive either. While typically calm, she can occasionally be very serious, especially when it comes to the band. Or when Alice isn’t properly taking care of herself. If Alice is stubbornly reckless, Kaida is stubbornly protective, and they often clash over that. When it comes to anything else, they get along fine, but if Kaida notices Alice getting too tired and points it out, it’s likely to end in an argument.
While her protectiveness shows up most around Alice, it extends to any and all of her friends. She’s the one who helps Yumeru out with remembering school stuff, and she’s always willing to help out the other two members of the band when they need it.
She does, of course, have a weak point in her overall tough exterior: anything she thinks is cute. Especially cute animals, except it’s probably not what you expect. She has a very soft spot for reptiles, even owning a pet snake of her own. Don’t get it wrong, she still likes the more stereotypically “cute” animals, but she’s especially fond of reptiles.
And I think that’s about all for this post! As always, go check out the Tricyrtis main document if you want to know more, and I’ll catch y’all later!
But not without our fun fact first: she’s based on an oc I made years ago who was named after and based on my dragonair in pokemon soul silver! While Kaida doesn’t share the same name, she’s still based on that oc, and her name references that origin slightly ;)
