=History=
Tsukiyama belongs to a very traditional, very old, very wealthy family. The Imaidegawa clan can trace their history back over 500 years. She is the eldest daughter of the head family, and she feels the weight of tradition, but she bears it with grace. She loves her parents, and her siblings. So she's a good girl. She studies tea ceremony. She studies flower arrangement. Her one minor act of rebellion was to study kendo instead of the more womanly naginata-do. She does well in school. She volunteered to be class representative, as befitting a person born to lead.

Tsukiyama belongs to a very traditional, very old, very wealthy family. The Imaidegawa clan can trace their history back over 500 years. She is the eldest daughter of the head family, and she feels the weight of tradition. And she hates it. But she loves her parents, and her siblings. So she's a good girl. She studies tea ceremony. She studies flower arrangement. Her one minor act of rebellion was to study kendo instead of the more womanly naginata-do. She does well in school. She volunteered to be class representative, as befitting a person born to lead.
  
She has a lot of superficial acquaintences, and people tend to flock to her due to her wealth, perhaps hoping for a piece. But she doesn't have anyone she would consider a close friend. She's busy, between being class rep, the kendo club, volunteering after school at a local old folks home, help out her family, attending social events. It's just she doesn't have time for friends. That must be it.

And it's so very tiring. Dealing with people, and never knowing if they're talking to her, or her wealth. Having to go to family events, and wear stupidly heavy kimonos, and eat nasty little pieces if raw fish, and pretend to savor cups of ridiculously overpriced tea. Hearing her name. Imaidegawa-san this, Imaidegawa-san that. Never hearing her personal name outside of her family home, not having any friends that would dare use it. And politicians, and all the other people that use their power to walk all over other people, they should just eat a thousand needles and die. And that boy that hits smaller boys because he can, with his friends to back him up. And the teachers who close their eyes and look away. And that girl, humiliating that other girl to make herself popular. So tiring.
 
 
So she's happy enough, but, sometimes, she feels a little empty. She'd like to have a girlfriend, but that'll have to wait until university. She's not sure how to tell her parents that, but, she's sure they'll understand. Still, it'd be nice to have someone to walk home with. Well, if she ever walked to school, that is. Maybe she could have her driver wait for her further away.

She just wants to relax, goof off, have fun. She doesn't want to have to worry about looking out for other people. Why can't life be more like those cute slice of life shows? She doesn't want to have to worry about reputation, and honor and all of that stupid archaic crap. She wants friends that are friends with her, not her name. And now her parents are starting to talk about arranging marriage meetings. Like hell she'd agree to marry someone she didn't love. Which means she's never getting married, at least unless the laws change. And that's another thing that is so damn tiring, hiding who she is, who she likes, not being able to giggle and share her crushes with friends or her little sisters.

Tsukiyama is outwardly sociable, friendly, outgoing, and approachable. But there's a wall behind her smile that few people can get past. She believes strongly in working hard, and not expecting her background to earn her any favors, and in fact finds it a little irritating if people try to treat her differently. She's responsible, and sees it as her responsibility, as a person from a privileged background, to help those less fortunate than herself. She really hates it when other people abuse their power or bully people. Obligations imposed by other people annoy her a little; it's not that she can't bear them, but she dislikes people that try to offload their obligations on to others.
