Description
Abandoned as an infant during a typhoon, earning him the name "Nowaki," he grew up in an orphanage. As the eldest child there, he ran away upon discovering the caretakers were not his biological parents. During this escape, he encountered Hiroki Kamijou as a child; Hiroki reported him, leading to his return. After middle school graduation, Nowaki worked multiple jobs—reportedly up to six at once, including at a flower shop—to support himself and donate to the orphanage.
Driven by a desire for equality with university-affiliated Hiroki, Nowaki pursued higher education despite lacking a high school diploma. He persistently sought Hiroki's tutoring, following him home and taking his house key to ensure lessons. This determination sparked their romantic relationship, titled "Junjou Egoist." Initially aiming for social work to bridge the gap with Hiroki, he shifted to medicine, specializing in pediatrics due to his orphanage-born affinity for children.
His career caused relational strain, marked by unilateral decisions. He accepted a two-year medical specialization in the United States without prior discussion, condensing it to one year to return faster to Hiroki. His abrupt departure and return caused significant distress. Further conflicts arose from misunderstandings, such as Hiroki finding him asleep beside another man and discovering documents suggesting Nowaki sought a separate apartment. These incidents heightened Hiroki's insecurities, though reconciliations followed, including a pivotal confrontation in a university library.
Personality-wise, Nowaki exhibited kindness, romanticism, and emotional vulnerability, often displaying whimsical fantasies and a cheerful demeanor despite being the assertive partner. His childhood fostered deep empathy for children and the elderly, but also fueled insecurities about abandonment and inferiority. He experienced jealousy regarding Hiroki's past affections and professional standing, relentlessly striving to earn Hiroki's admiration. His medical career and relational reconciliations continued to develop.
