教えてください、私は忘れてしまいます。 見せて、私は覚えていてもよいです。 しかし、私を伴う、と私は理解します。 Oshietekudasai, watashi wa wasurete shimaimasu. Misete, watashi wa oboete ite mo yoidesu. Shikashi, watashi o tomonau, to watashi wa rikai shimasu. Drifting...falling away to a quiet place, where no one else resided but a single, solitary soul. Undisturbed by the world's problems and worries, the mundane parts of every human life...That was the one wish, the one thing that Amagumo Shiromizu wished for. But never could his longing be fulfilled, for such a thing could never be reached...not unless he isolated himself from the rest of the world, and cut himself off from all ties to humans altogether. Something he couldn't do, no matter how hard he tried. At that particular moment, Amagumo could be found laying on his back, floating in the middle of a large body of water, his eyes closed and a tranquil look upon his face. His strangely colored white hair looked like semi-clear jellyfish tentacles in the water, and his skin had a translucent appearance to it as well. He looked as if her were quite comfortable just floating there, almost seeming as if her were asleep. Some might think that if they saw him, not moving, just...floating. Not doing anything at all. Even though he knew he had places to be, he just didn't feel like it that day. It was about to be break anyways, so why bother going to school when the next day and the week after he would be out of it? To be honest, he hated school, and if he could he'd just drop from it, but there was something that was keeping him there. The swim club. Because of the Iwatobi Swim Club, Amagumo went to school, endured pointless classes. Because of the others on the team, he actually had friends, something that he doubted he'd ever have if it weren't for the club. He risked skipping that day because he already knew what was going on in the club activities, they weren't going to have any practices that week because Gou was going out of town for a family thing, and Rei was as well. They were simply told to keep up with their own personal training, and be in good condition when they all got back after vacation. The pool in which Amagumo was swimming at that moment wasn't actually a pool, but the pond at a park. A public park. And even more odd was the fact he was wearing clothes. His school uniform to be exact, which contained of a short sleeved white button up shirt, and a green tie, and dark tan pants. His black jacket was tossed on the ground, along with his shoes; same with the pants, which under he wore his swimming jammers. He was getting weird looks by people who were walking past on the path that led through the large park, but none stopped to talk to him. Several already knew who he was, and knew that this kind of behavior coming from Amagumo was normal. So, instead, they just moved on, leaving the teen in his dream like state of being, and let him float in the water to his heart's content. A young woman who had passed by earlier, about ten minutes or so, knew Amagumo well, as she happened to be his neighbor, and left a dry, folded towel next to his clothing and school bag, as well as a dry white shirt. Amagumo sighs as he lay there, cracking his eyes open just a tiny margin, gazing up at the serene blue sky, with it's soft fluffy white clouds floating among the expanse of eternity, the reflection of that beautiful scene showing upon the surface of the lake around him, making him feel as if he were floating in the middle of not a lake, but the sky itself. A flock of birds fly up ahead, and Amagumo closes his eyes again, before shifting slightly, so that he began to drift slowly along in the water.

Often has a faraway, or "not all there" appearance in his expression. As if he's physically there, but his mind is in a far away place. Has thin eyebrows, that are also light silver in color.

When he isn't in school he wears either the white outfit in the picture, or something casual, like a t-shirt, and a pair of pants or shorts. Nothing fancy. However sometimes he does dress nicely and wears a button up shirt, a tie, and a vest, often checkered or with some design, and nice pants. Close up pic: Jewelry/Etc: A locket that he got from his mother Other: Likes pins and other things like it Sports Stats: Style: All, but mainly free and breaststroke Stamina 4/5 Body: 3/5 Mental Strength: 4/5 Water Repellency: 5/5 Logic: 2/5 Smile: 3/5 Personality: A bit on the shy side, Amagumo is one who doesn't care one way or another about what is going to happen in the future, as long as he can be, do, and live how he wants. He is kind of like Haruka in a way, except a bit more introverted, and much harder to get to know, or get to open up to. However, when he does open up to you, he's a tiny margin more talkative, but even then he's still quiet, though you'd definitely notice the difference. He loves swimming just as much as the rest of the team, and always has simply floating on his back in the middle of the ocean on a hot summer day on his mind. He's a team player, and definitely a follower, not a leader. He can always be counted on, despite his appearances.
