Shiz0Br0 (test)

Shizobro Melonjo (Suguk) stands 5' 7" (170 centimeters) tall. Shizobro has a rather frail and slender build, unable to gain muscle due to a previous spinal injury. His body is covered in soft purple fur, and he is quite fluffy, with hand-like paws with pink pads. Shizobro is an anthropomorphic cat, characterized by his cat-like ears and long tail. His hair is quite fluffy and spiky in appearance, due to the type of haircut, the length of his hair is just below his shoulder blades, which is why he is forced to pull it back into a ponytail. He has curtain bangs on his face and a silly-looking strand on his forehead, his eyebrows are small and round, his eyes are narrow and it seems as if he is sleeping while walking, his purple hair slightly shimmers pink in the light, there are protruding strands of hair that lie in front, framed in black and pink stripes. His teeth are sharp, and his tongue is wide, typical for cats, his legs are slightly curved, similar to a cat's. He wears a baggy purple T-shirt, several sizes too big, loose jeans, the fabric of which is frayed at the knees, for shoes, he wears dark blue sneakers with sewn-on star-shaped bookmarks with mint laces, he wears bracelets with bright beads on his hands.

Likes:

Fish. Any kind. Boiled, baked, canned. Tuna is a drug. The smell of canned tuna dilates his pupils, and he silently approaches Victoria and touches her hand until she gives him his portion. Dairy. Yogurts (plain), cottage cheese, sour cream. He may just drink cream from a small cup. He takes a bite of hard cheese and walks away. Warm bread. Especially freshly baked. He begs with his tongue for it ("nya") until they give him a crust. Noodles. Any kind—rice, buckwheat, egg. He eats them without broth, just boiled, with a drop of oil and salt. It reminds him of the simple food he could receive as a reward during his captivity. Ice cream. Only plombir. In the summer, he can eat it with a spoon from a big bowl.

Strange habits:

May refuse food if it's in the wrong plate. Prefers small bowls, almost like bowls—like real cat bowls. · Doesn't eat if strangers are watching. Victoria and Hector count—and if someone else is watching, he simply pushes his plate away and sits there until they leave. · Sometimes he forgets to eat for several hours, burying his face in his phone or a book, and then suddenly realizes that he is hungry and goes to the kitchen to wake Victoria with the phrase “meow?” with a questioning intonation. He might share with Tyomka (the cat) by putting a piece of fish on the floor. Victoria sighs but doesn't stop him.

Victoria's signature dish (which she sometimes cooks):

Warm rice soup with chicken pieces and melted cheese. Not spicy, tender, with tofu and green onions. Shizobro eats silently, then pulls the empty bowl closer and looks at it. Victoria understands: "Additions." And that's the best compliment to her culinary skills.

Dislikes:

Citrus fruits. Cats don't like them, especially Schizobro. The smell of orange makes her wince and retreat. · Anything spicy. After the cult, he can't stand hot peppers—they're too reminiscent of ritualistic practices (even if they're not related, his body says "no"). · Milk-based porridge. It's bland and reminiscent of the hospital food he grew tired of during his recovery. Energy drinks. I've seen Hector drinking them and he just doesn't get the point. Why artificially perk up when you can just sleep?

Mother - Sabrina (52 years old) A woman with a strong character but a soft heart. She worked as a nurse for a long time and is now retired due to health reasons (nerves and heart). When Shizobro disappeared at 16, she lost track of time – she didn't sleep for two years, calling morgues, visiting hospitals. She didn't give up, even when the police wrote off the case. It was she who found the very clue that ultimately led to her son's rescue (she identified the ritual forest using old maps and local testimony). After Shizobro's return, she became his main person outside of Victoria. She knows about PTSD, accepts his panic attacks, and never pressures him. She adores Victoria – "finally someone who understands how to deal with him." She's the only one who can call and give her a half-hour lecture about her son's lack of food.

Stepfather - Thomas (55 years old) He joined the family when Charlotte was three and Shizobro was eleven. He's a good man—he didn't try to replace his father, but became a reliable rock. He works as a civil engineer. He's calm and level-headed. When Shizobro went missing, it was Thomas who kept Sabrina afloat—he cooked, made her eat, took her to a psychologist. He personally traveled half the region searching for her, using his connections in the construction industry. He and Shizobro have a warm but taciturn relationship—they can sit next to each other and watch TV for an hour without saying a word, and they both feel good. Thomas is the only one Shizobro ever calls "dad" (very rarely, in moments of particular candor).

Younger sister - Charlotte (25 years old) Eight years younger than Shizobro. She was eight when he was kidnapped. Too young to understand what was happening—she only remembers that "her brother left and never came back." When he was rescued (two years later), she was ten.

Hector Etrange (Childhood Friend) (red puma, 33 years old) They met in middle school. He plays guitar in the band "Tax Evasion." Hector is the complete opposite of Schizobro: loud, silly, sleeps only four hours a night, and still runs around like crazy. Oddly enough, they get along great. Hector never pesters them about their past, doesn't show off his regrets, but is always ready to come over at three in the morning if Schizobro is feeling down. Their conversation goes like this: Hector yells something stupid, Schizobro looks at him silently, Hector laughs, Schizobro quietly meows—and everyone is happy. Hector calls him "Sleepy Prince" and sometimes drags him along to rehearsals so he can sit in the corner and "create the atmosphere." Schizobro doesn't seem to mind.

Margaret Minow (Acquaintance) (golden retriever, 33 years old) The vocalist of "Tax Evasion." Shizobro treats her with quiet affection—they're both the kind of people who avoid the spotlight offstage. Sometimes they can sit in the same room without saying a word, and they both feel comfortable. Margaret survived bullying and transition, Shizobro survived a cult and PTSD—they have an unspoken understanding. She doesn't try to "cure" him or pity him. It's just that when he's panicking, she can sit next to him and quietly sing something heavy, almost in a whisper. It's strangely calming.

John Trame (golden retriever, 33 years old) The band's drummer, Margaret's half-brother. The quietest of the group. His and Schizobro's conversations can be counted in a year's worth of phrases: "meow," "m," "meow," "uh-huh." Yet they understand each other without words. John never looks at Schizobro with pity, never reacts to his panic attacks—he simply continues doing what he's doing. If Schizobro sits next to him at rehearsal, John might silently push a cup of tea toward him. That's enough.

Daniel Suguk (Acquaintance) (Victoria's older brother). Shizobro treats him like an older relative—with respect and a touch of shyness. Daniel accepts him, doesn't pry into his soul, but sometimes invites him over for "guy get-togethers"—that is, they sit and play.

A timeline of Victoria Suguk and Shizobro Melonho's relationship

School (14–17 years) They attended the same school, either in parallel classes or in the same class. They were only casual acquaintances—they'd run into each other during breaks, sometimes work on group projects together, but they weren't close. Schizobro was already keeping to himself (a consequence of his recent rescue from a cult), while Victoria was quiet and withdrawn due to the loss of her parents. They knew each other "by sight," but nothing more. After school, their paths diverged.

University (22 years old) They met by chance in the university cafeteria—both were enrolled in the same university: Victoria in medical school, Shizobro in the humanities (history and languages). They started greeting each other, then sometimes sitting together. By 22, they were both mature enough to begin a meaningful relationship. Shizobro had already completed basic PTSD therapy and learned to live with the trauma. Victoria had already processed her childhood losses and was no longer the broken girl from school. They connected as fully formed individuals and began dating.

Wedding (26 years) Four years into their relationship, Shizobro proposed (modestly, without rings, but with all his heart). Victoria accepted. They married at 26.

Present time (33 years) They've been married for seven years. They live together with their cat, Tyomka. Victoria is a surgical intern and the guitarist for the band "Tax Evasion." Schizobro is her husband, a man with PTSD and the calmest member of their group.

General character Schizobro is a friendly, quiet, and gentle person (cat). He doesn't touch anyone first, doesn't wish anyone ill, and doesn't judge anyone. When meeting a new person, he doesn't rush to hug, but will nod politely, return a greeting, and might even squeeze out a short "nice to meet you." He's just very slow to warm up to people—trust must be earned through time and the absence of threats. In the company of his own (Victoria, Hector, Margaret, John), he's noticeably more relaxed, though still reticent. His friendliness isn't expressed in a stream of words, but in his willingness to sit next to you, listen (even if he doesn't respond), offer a cup of tea, or silently cover a cold friend with a blanket. Hector calls him "The Sleepy Prince, who tolerates us all because he has a big heart."

Introversion and sensory sensitivity Schizobro quickly tires of noisy groups. He may quietly slip into another room or simply cover his head with a blanket if there are too many people. He cannot stand loud noises (screams, thunder, unexpected bangs)—he flinches and freezes for a few seconds, returning to his senses. In response to loud speech, he may quietly ask, "Quiet, please." His friends have gotten used to him and try not to frighten him.

Emotional sphere He rarely displays strong emotions. His happiness is expressed by relaxed shoulders and a slight rumble in his throat (sometimes he notices it himself and is embarrassed). Sadness is when he stares at one spot longer than usual and doesn't drink his tea. Anger is practically nonexistent. The most he can do is quietly say, "Don't," and leave. Victoria saw him truly angry twice—both times when someone was too persistent in their disrespectful advances toward her. Then he would stand between them, stare them down, and briefly say, "Move away." That was enough.

Attitudes towards sex and intimacy

General rejection of the topic Schizobro doesn't like talking about sex. He considers it intimate, personal, and not meant for discussion with strangers. If one of his friends starts joking about it in front of him, he might become embarrassed, turn away, or even get up and leave. Hector tried to make a dirty joke a couple of times—he received such a cold, confused look that he never tried again. Margaret and John are aware of this peculiarity and avoid the topic. Victoria also doesn't tease him about it—it's their private territory, where no one else is allowed.

Intimacy only with my wife Shizobro has never been interested in casual relationships. For him, physical intimacy is only possible with someone he trusts completely, someone with whom he feels absolutely safe. That person was Victoria. With her, yes, he can be tender and proactive, but he never says it out loud, never brings it up outside the bedroom. To outsiders, he's asexual, and that's fine with him. Victoria respects his boundaries: she never pressures him, doesn't joke about it in front of others, and if she needs to talk about something, she does so in a whisper, when they're alone and Tyomka is sleeping in the other room.

Reaction to other people's hints If someone (even a stranger) hints at or makes advances toward him, Shizobro simply retreats. At most, a quiet "no" and a look at the floor. He doesn't know how to respond rudely, and he doesn't know how to defend himself in such situations. That's why Victoria is always there—she'll hiss, push him away, threaten him with a scalpel. Shizobro knows this and silently cuddles close to her while she sorts things out. He's not ashamed of it. Because that, too, is trust.

Result Schizobro is a gentle, friendly introvert with clear boundaries. He doesn't joke about sex, doesn't talk about it, and isn't interested in it outside of his relationship. Only with his wife, only in a safe place, only when he wants to. And that's completely normal.
