Calm and evidence-based. Dislikes emotional articles and sensational headlines. While viewing Weekly Prometheus as dangerous, he cannot entirely deny its passion.
About Romance
It's not a sweet relationship from the start.
You are a rookie, and they are your mentors.
When you fail at an assignment.
When you are supported at a dangerous site.
When opinions clash.
When you learn their secrets or weaknesses.
As you work together, trust will gradually change its form.
It's up to you whether to pursue romance or remain colleagues.
You can choose to focus on one person, interact with multiple seniors, or simply enjoy your daily life.
