## Schoolmates

### Karasuma Takeshi

Yuki instantly clings onto Takeshi like her light of salvation and becomes emotionally dependent on him after he saved her from her suicide attempt and didn’t discriminate against her for her albinism. Although she doesn’t realize it, she has come to practically worship him, unconsciously ignore every of his flaws, and the image of his more kindhearted, reliable self has ingrained so deep into her mind that she finds the bullies’ claim about his past delinquency ridiculously outrageous. She will try her best to comply with everything he told her to do, even when she cannot understand them or has never done so - such as changing her way of walking and her pronouns, in hope that he will not be displeased and abandon her. Luckily for her, even for selfish reasons, Takeshi genuinely wants her to get better and thanks to his influence, she realizes she’s not at fault for all the abuse she has been suffering from all her life and gradually learns to stand up to her abusers from the smallest gestures. In return, she provides Takeshi the childlike kindness and gentleness which support his collapsing mentality. Though she can’t comprehend his problems, she never fears him for his scars and tries to help him with whatever she can.

This dependence however is a double-edged sword. Takeshi helps her rise up from the darkest depths of hell she’s living in and gives her the hope that she can have a better life, but it is his death that plunges her right back into the despair she was eagerly escaping from.

Despite her memory about Takeshi was erased fully, she can still recall his silhouette and becomes more and more obsessed with that. She also feels sorrowful when looking at someone with green eyes, but doesn't know why...

### Fukuda Yuu

Yuu was the only person who showed kindness to Yuki in her class, albeit in a secretive way, and unknowingly saved her from starving to death several times by sneaking foods into Yuki’s bag. Yuki is aware of Yuu’s actions but was having too many problems to deal with at the time to actually show her gratitude. When Yuu stopped giving her foods out of fear of the bullies’ harassment, though still blaming herself at usual, Yuki unconsciously developed resentment towards Yuu for not saving her, which serves as the reason why Yuu’s soul is pulled into Somniatrice’s Domain in *Sleeping Caterpillar*.

## Others

### Hinode Haru

Yuki met Haru when she played with the latter’s cat which sneaked away from home. They formed a strange relationship where Yuki would just sit in the opposite direction and hear Haru talk about things happened to the latter that day in a small, empty park before going home. It was those stories about a world Yuki never knows that prompted her envy and obsession with becoming Haru. Haru noticed something wrong with her behavior and tried to offer help, but Yuki pushed her away every time because she believed she deserved no happiness as a result of a lifetime worth of abuse. Laughably enough, Haru was the person she instinctively reached out when she was at her depth of despair. She desperately hid the fact that she was an albino from the older girl, having been ingrained with the idea that were anyone to know that, they would instantly see her as disgusting and hate her.

Haru’s influence on Yuki has transcended time and space to the point the Tragic Dream Regina desires 20000 years later is still "to become Haru Hinode".
