SWEETNESS & LIGHTNING
ABOUT
CANON POINT: Chapter 13: Summer Vacation, Cats, and Aji
VISUAL: School Uniform, Glasses
BUILD: Slender, hourglass figure
HAIR: Black, straight, hip-length
EYES: Deep blue/blue-green
FEATURES: Scar on left ring finger, usually bandaged; wears glasses or contact lenses (or magic eyedrops in Escordvi)
ATTIRE: School uniform (see visual), or modest casual clothes
WEAPONS: N/A
VOICE: Saori Hayami
ORIGINS: Musashino, Tokyo, Japan
BIRTHDAY: Sometime in early-to-mid August (headcanon date August 13)
FAMILY: Mother Megumi Iida (chef and owner of Megumi's, TV personality), father Muneo Iida (private security, former police officer), maternal grandparents (chefs and owners of Megumi's, deceased)
RELATIONSHIPS: Best friend Shinobu Kojika, found family Kouhei Inuzuka and Tsumugi Inuzuka
OCCUPATION: First-year high school student
HISTORY: Kotori is a normal high school girl in modern Japan, and the daughter of a fairly prominent chef and restaurateur. Unfortunately, despite her passion for food and voracious appetite, Kotori starts the series unable to cook much herself; an accident cutting her finger when she was in third grade left her with a strong phobia of kitchen knives. At the start of the series, Kotori’s mother Megumi has started doing appearances on TV to repay a favor to a friend, leaving the restaurant closed and Kotori alone most of the time, especially with lots of last-minute cancellations of plans.
IN-CANON: One day at Flower Viewing, she runs into her recently widowed teacher Kouhei Inuzuka and his preschool daughter Tsumugi. After explaining that her mother stood her up due to her TV work, she gives them a business card for the restaurant. They come in a few nights later when the restaurant is closed, and Kotori awkwardly but successfully makes them clay pot rice. She then asks Sensei and Tsumugi if they’d like to come to the restaurant for dinner more often; the place is empty nowadays, and she can help teach them to cook with her theoretical knowledge (since the two had been living on frozen dinners since Kouhei’s wife died) and he can handle the cutting.

PERSONALITY
ALIGNMENT: Neutral Good
ATTITUDE: Quiet, gentle, polite, enthusiastic about food and cooking, prone to mild freakouts
VIRTUES: Kind, patient, loyal, sincere, humble, polite, insightful, persistent when motivated, brave for others, great with kids, knowledgeable about cooking
VICES: Gluttonous, anxious, "space cadet", bottles up negative emotions, cold-shoulder temper, selectively impulsive
QUIRKS: *Constantly* thinking about food, light stammer when nervous, fiddles with bangs when embarrassed, almost always has a hair tie on hand
LIKES: FOOD, cooking, trying a new recipe, quality time with loved ones
DISLIKES: Kitchen knives, blood, physical pain, having plans canceled, being alone for too long
HOBBIES: Eating, cooking parties with the Inuzukas, going shopping or to the movies with Shinobu
FAVORITE FOOD: Rice, followed closely by seafood
LEAST FAVORITE FOOD: None
FIRST IMPRESSIONS: First impression: quiet. This can be mistaken for aloofness at first glance, since she tends to be reserved with her words to start, but in reality she is a. just awkward about interacting with people, and b. almost constantly daydreaming about food.
Start a conversation about food, though, and she’ll immediately light up and start talking a mile a minute, only barely stopping herself. It's clear food is a BIG part of who she is: she’s nigh-constantly snacking during school, always wanting to investigate new ingredients, and once she gains enough confidence extremely excited at the prospect of tackling a new recipe. She’s also kind and extremely earnest (to the point of bluntness or being a ridiculously transparent liar at times), quickly taking Tsumugi under her wing as a little sister. She can also be very easy to fluster, though, sometimes to the point of comically serious dramatics. But during more serious moments, she can have a simple, gentle wisdom that rarely steers people wrong, often more valuable than she gives herself credit for.
MOTIVATIONS: Food!!! … And more seriously, bonds. The two are deeply intertwined for her. Food is her main love language, cooking together with someone is her favorite bonding activity, and a lot of her knowledge of recipes is tied to strong memories and vice versa. At the start of the series, she feels starved of both good food thanks to her phobia and the bonds she usually has: her mom and the restaurant’s ambience missing due to the TV work favor, and her main friend Shinobu having been sorted into a different classroom in high school and usually busy helping with her three younger siblings at home, and her dad being a VERY infrequent presence in her life since her parents divorced. It’s only after realizing she and the Inuzukas can help each other with their similar problems by cooking together- Kotori with the above, Kouhei and Tsumugi not having a proper family dinner in months since Kouhei’s late wife did all the cooking- that she starts to feel more connected again. She grows to love the Inuzukas like her own family, heals the bonds she has with her mom, Shinobu, and even her dad. She comes into her own as she learns to cook for herself and others, and she slowly becomes more proactive in nurturing her connections with the people around her.
FLAWS: Her main weakness is being a bit stuck in her own head a lot of the time, especially when it comes to her anxieties. She's often a bit lost in her daydreams about food, of course, and sometimes can let her anxiousness get the best of her, like panicking over small details, or mistaking Kouhei's best friend Yagi for someone kidnapping Tsumugi and tailing them to a park instead of... just asking. But more than that, she can have a hard time processing her negative emotions, and it takes a lot of effort for her to voice them instead of bottling them up until they explode. Surprisingly, she also has a bit of an impulsive protective streak as well, such as the incident with Yagi, which leads to her jumping out of the bushes to stop him from handing Tsumugi a "cigarette" (really a paper-wrapped stick of chocolate)... when she has no idea how dangerous this guy is AND her phone is dead so she has no way to call for help.
REGRETS: Her parents’ divorce. Even if it wasn't really her fault. The marriage was already on the rocks before, especially when Megumi took over her late parents’ restaurant and Muneo quit his job as a police officer to take care of Kotori, both without their spouse’s input. But she still carries that feeling of being “the last straw” with her knife accident- since she was trying to surprise them with her dad's favorite dinner of shougayaki to make them happy- even with her parents’ reassurance otherwise, which directly impacts her knife phobia. Not only does she not want to remember the physical pain, but the memory of her parents divorcing make the aversion so strong that it takes years for her to conquer it, despite knowing it'd be a big benefit for herself and her mom if she did. It's not until Kouhei cuts his finger in a later chapter and Tsumugi develops her own fear that Kotori manages to come to terms with her own scar to help the little girl out.
EXTRA: Her raw talent for cooking sets her apart from a crowd. Not only is she able to make AMAZING rice on her first try despite mostly flying by the seat of her pants, she also knows quite a few recipes and tricks just by watching her mom and through memory despite not cooking herself. She can also to diagnose the root of a person’s cooking mistakes easily (like when Kouhei kept overcooking foods because he was wary of undercooking and giving his daughter an upset stomach).
(Also, she got over her squeamishness about contacts because she realized she could eat steaming ramen without having to constantly messing with her glasses.)
