=Backstory and Personality=
----
Daughter of the famous ballerina Eva Tetsuhisano, the sweet and demure Hanae was born in Meitohara, but raised in Oriyama; her birth sucedeed her mother's retirement from the ballet career. When she was six, her father Kisho died in a forest fire, leaving only her mother to take care of her. Later, Eva was diagnosticated to have breast cancer and died in a few weeks. Because of that, Hanae had to spend the rest of her life with her grandmother Sadachi. (Dance in the Pale Moonlight! The Orange Blossom Blooms)
It's also during her childhood (more precisely, kindergarden) when she met her longtime classmate Ayameko Mayonaka. One day, Hanae was being harassed by a group of bullies, when a lemon-yellow-haired girl named Lili Ishiba came in and showed them her kung fu moves. From that point onwards, Hanae and Lili became best friends, and always kept in contact. (Vanity is No Good! A Shape-Shifter Ylang-Ylang?)
Years later, now 14-years-old, Hanae hears about the newcoming sisters from France: Chloe and Chiara Auriville, and made sure to welcome them once they arrived. Sometime after their arrival, she was visited by the sisters while practicing ballet, and explained her tragic story to them. Feeling pity of her, Chloe offers the orange Cure Scent for her to sniff it, and so she does. Suddenly, a blue bird monster attacks the people at the street, and after being convinced of doing so, Hanae transforms into Cure Tangerine for the first time and defeats the monster. (Dance in the Pale Moonlight! The Orange Blossom Blooms)
Through the course of the fanfic, Hanae develops a crush on her fellow Pretty Cure, Ikuko Torino, but is only able to confess much later, after defeating the Karlix denizen Komorah.
