⊰⊱ Current concerns:
'Don't tell me I can't. It just motivates me more. I'm not slowing down for anything.' ✧

⊰⊱ She's a bit of a hothead at times.
⊰⊱ She works as a freelance photographer, and cosplay model.
⊰⊱ Oikawa tends to dye her hair fairly often. Aside from her natural brown that peeks out every now and again, she's also had white, pink, and blonde, but is more known to have black hair after so long of having it dyed.
⊰⊱ She is panromantic. She has no preference, but falls on the demisexual spectrum in terms of sexual activity.
⊰⊱ She has had a girlfriend in the past during high school, but it was nothing serious. A 'fling', by some people's standards.
⊰⊱ She enjoys the idea of more personal greetings, like handshakes, but can't get herself to fully commit to them.
⊰⊱ Despite being older now and mellowing out, she still manages to maintain some of her playfulness from her high school days.
⊰⊱ Oikawa sucks with words when it counts and can get flustered easily if taken off guard.
⊰⊱ She finds people with extremely low self-esteem a little exhausting.
⊰⊱ She hates being ignored. She puts as much work into you as you put into her.
⊰⊱ Oikawa is uncomfortable with physical touch from behind as a surprise, but can slowly warm up to it if she's comfortable enough with someone.
⊰⊱ She doesn't police others on it, but Oikawa tries to stay away from any form of drug use, alcohol or smoking. She can tolerate it, if she absolutely must, but would prefer being anywhere else.
⊰⊱ Oikawa dislikes her first name being used by others she isn't familiar with. Last name without honorifics is fine, and much more preferred, for strangers or acquaintances.
⊰⊱ Petty is something she can still be, to an extent, and jealousy is something that comes and goes, depending on a list of circumstances. But she generally doesn't hold grudges anymore these days.
⊰⊱ Oikawa cannot stand unfaithful, flakey, uncommitted, inconsiderate people, or cheaters.
⊰⊱ She hates the term "differently abled." It sounds to her like someone is trying to skirt around her disability and sugarcoat it. To her, that's more offensive than the term itself.
⊰⊱ Jokes about Shiratorizawa or the failure in going to nationals in high school will never be funny to Oikawa. This will always garner a negative reaction, friend or not. She has closed this chapter in her life and has tried to move past it.






⊰⊱ Anyone who sees her can probably tell she enjoys talking a lot, but Oikawa also enjoys comfortable silence, when she can find it. Particularly when watching or listening to something.
⊰⊱ If you mention anything relating to dinosaurs, aliens, space, or gemstones, her attention is yours.
⊰⊱ She grew up with shows like Sailor Moon, Key the Metal Idol, and Shōjo Kakumei Utena. There were some 'male-audience oriented' shows she liked too, but they didn't appeal to her nearly as much as the Shōjo style of these shows did.
⊰⊱ Perfect Blue holds a special, unfortunate, place in her heart. Princess Mononoke is her favorite Ghibli movie.
⊰⊱ Oikawa has seen the entirety of Jurassic Park, Star Wars, and Alien series more than enough to recall portions of the film[s] by heart.
⊰⊱ She absolutely loves the Godzilla franchise. Her favorite Kaiju is Mothra. She can thank Iwaizumi for that one.
⊰⊱ She also adores anything on the topic of paranormal investigation, cryptozoology, and strange happenings.
⊰⊱ Oikawa doesn't care for cable. Anything she watches tends to be online in some capacity, so she invested in an Amazon FireStick to allow her to watch whatever she wanted, or play music on youtube as she wished.
⊰⊱ Though she doesn't keep up on the news or books, she's enthralled by the world of Harry Potter, and the idea of magic in these kinds of bounds.
Some silly wizard Stats:
Patronus: Robin
Hogwarts House: Hatstalled between Slytherin and Hufflepuff
Ilvermorny House: Horned Serpent
Wand: Spruce wood with a phoenix feather core, brittle flexibility
Favorite creature: Occamy and Basilisk
⊰⊱ Milkbread and Coffee are essential to her morning routine. Without it, she's a whole different person. She also favors peach milk quite a bit, and loves little things like kompeito and strawberry marshmallows as preferred light snacks. Oikawa's sweet tooth is massive.
⊰⊱ She loves baking, and has only gotten better thanks to the experience she had working in a pastry shop.
⊰⊱ She hates wasting food, so instead of throwing away most meals, Oikawa will do her best to divide it up and save it as leftovers. If they aren't used for her own lunches, she will share them with others in some way or another. Among friends, or even homeless individuals she sees on the street. She might get some stares, but people are always starting at her, for one reason or another.
⊰⊱ She's quite the thrill seeker! Oikawa loves mostly anything that goes quickly. Roller coasters are a particular favorite of hers. Unfortunately, like many things, due to her prosthetic, it is a challenge in finding coasters she can actually go on legally.
⊰⊱ She knows how to drive a motorcycle. Quite the showoff if she ever gets a chance to be.
⊰⊱ Though she can't do it any more - at least not yet - Oikawa knows how to skate - both on ice and land. Her mother was convinced that if she hadn't picked up Volleyball, she would have definitely been in some kind of roller derby, or ice skating competition. Once again, her prosthetic does hinder her ability to ice skate, but not her determination to.
⊰⊱ Oikawa used to rely heavily on her skates to get her to places in a timely manner, without putting her knee in nearly as much danger. Though it isn't so easy, she still chooses to use them and genuinely enjoys it.
⊰⊱ She loves rain! But Oikawa isn't built for it at all, or cold weather in general. Or hot weather! She runs at a generally cold temperature, and her hands are always like ice, but she's just like a popsicle. Too hot and she'll melt!










⊰⊱She listens to a wide variety of music and loves getting suggestions from other people, as well as sharing her music with others.
⊰⊱ For as loud as she and her music are, Oikawa very much enjoys soft songs, and has a whole playlist dedicated to nothing but lofi. It helps her sleep at night, most of the time, and is often used as background music in her house.
⊰⊱ Even in cases of overstimulation overload, Oikawa will still try to find something to listen to and fill the noiseless void. Even on low volume. Very few times has she ever tolerated utter silence.
⊰⊱ She can play the cello and double bass. This fact isn't as commonly known about her, even among friends, but especially among fans. She doesn't talk about it as openly, but she loves to allude to it in vague posts across social media.
⊰⊱ Oikawa owns three cellos, and one bass:
One Purple Harlequin Cello [her oldest, and softest cello, despite its wide range. This has been with her since the age of at least ten. She calls this one Atsuko, and it is the only instrument that has a name.
Two electric cellos; one Aurora Silhouette [this has built-in LEDs], and one Yamaha SVC-210 Silent.
One carbon fiber black Double Bass.




⊰⊱ Oikawa adores rhythm games! Some of her favorites are UtaPri Shining Live [Reiji card horder], BANGDream!, and TapSonic. She doesn't play Cytus 2, SUPERSTAR, or Love Live! as much any more, but still has a fondness for them and will occasionally revisit just to see how rusty she is and if anything has changed in her absence.
⊰⊱ Other games she currently plays or has interest in:
Switch: Splatoon 2, Animal Crossing, Tetris, Mario Kart [She favors Bowser and Daisy]
PC: Stardew Valley, Raft, Slime Rancher, Ark: Survival Evolved, Minecraft, and The Sims
Mobile: RWBY Amity Arena, Pokemon Go, some side 'dress up'-esque games
Games she wants to play: Dead By Daylight, Don't Starve Together, Soma, Detroit Become Human, [more to come. . .]
Switch Code: SW-5055-9337-0033
Gamertag:
TerrorPuff [Usually], Cancerarus [Occasionally]



⊰⊱ Oikawa has a small black & white dwarf cat that she adopted from a local cat rescue. Her name is Hoshi, for the small star-shaped blob on her back, just near her tail. Hoshi was declawed by her previous owners, and doesn't fancy male/male presenting people, because of them, most likely due to gender association. She is extremely protective of Oikawa, and will 'swat' at anyone she isn't familiar with. It takes quite a bit of time for Hoshi to get used to male-presenting people, regardless of the closeness they have to her owner. If one wants her to get used to them, they must give her time.
⊰⊱ Oikawa has another cat, a maine coon, which she also took in from the same cat rescue. He's on the heavier side, about 11.3 kg, and sits up at 40 cm, named "Yama", for his 'mountainous' physique. Yama has a rather calm temperament, and usually accepts pets and company from almost anyone, despite the traumatic and neglectful home he spent some years in previously. Despite his kinder, less 'feisty' personality in comparison to his tiny counterpart, he is equally as protective and highly attentive to where Hoshi is, and where their owner has been. Yama can often be found repeatedly making rounds through the house to check each room if Oikawa isn't in sight after a few hours, or if he has yet to see Hoshi. Normally, he's never too far behind the tiny dwarf cat.
⊰⊱ She has a modern house and lives by herself with Hoshi and Yama in a cozy cul-de-sac, settled in the Osaka Prefecture. Over time, Oikawa designed and invested into her house on her own to make it what it is now.
⊰⊱ She saves the good majority of her photos and sells them as general stock photos, or prints that can be ordered online. She has numerous memory cards on her study shelves. It is much cleaner than saving a bunch of little square papers and cards on shelves, or in books.
⊰⊱ Even though she has plenty of pictures to hang, her walls are near-completely bare! Oikawa's contemplated making a nice collage. . . But she always gets picky when it comes to what to hang. So it never gets done.









⊰⊱ Oikawa is an above-the-knee amputee.
⊰⊱ She has had laser hair removal done in various areas of her body. Combatting gender dysphoria is very important to her.
⊰⊱ She is openly transgender, uses feminine pronouns, and has had gender affirmation top surgery. She only fears bottom surgery because she does not trust the technology of today to handle something so delicate, but in the future, perhaps she will feel more secure in making the decision to get something done.
⊰⊱ She has freckles on the back of her neck and her shoulders that she either doesn't know of, or often forgets about since she never sees them.
⊰⊱ Despite her small mouth, she has an almost alien-esque tongue. But it rarely ever fully shows itself.
⊰⊱ She has modified teeth, sharpened for the hell of it. It was definitely a big decision, since she doesn't think they can be reformed back to normal. So after years of wondering what it was like, she finally took a shot in the dark. Needless to say, Oikawa is very happy with her teeth as they are currently, and takes extremely good care of them.
⊰⊱ She works out frequently, doing multiple routines for things. Oikawa can bench press nearly four hundred pounds, but by doctors' [and engineers'] orders, it isn't recommended she do so. Her left thigh is more muscled than the right, given the fact that she relies on it so much.
⊰⊱ She frequents dancing as a favored pastime. Often focusing on learning the more high energy dances, since they're more fun to her.
⊰⊱ Her figure is hard to maintain, because she fills out quickly, and loses weight just as easily.
⊰⊱ Oikawa hems and customizes her own clothes to fit her necessary measurements.
⊰⊱ At least once every month, she will donate old clothes she doesn't want, or doesn't fit in any more, rather than throw them away. She believes, just like food, that letting them sit and never be used again by her is "wasting something good."
House Layout
✪ Residence: Osaka Prefecture, Japan
✪ Her current house originally started as a single-story, almost box-like rent house and nothing else. Through keeping her father's teachings in business, and doing a bit of smart saving in between jobs as they came, Oikawa was able to add onto and fix portions one by one to make what it is now. She isn't concerned about paying it off any more, and so with most of the house payments out of the way aside from any future renovations, She tends to save most of her money until ever needing it.
✪ The front of the structure is completely void of windows except the tall, wide hall window connecting her room and the study. All other windows are located towards the back.
She has a stained glass portion just above the backyard door, and the three walls that surround the pool are all windows, as well. The backyard is visible from all sides; kitchen, foyer/hall, and living room.
✪ There is a black-painted iron fence at least 8 to 10 feet tall surrounding her backyard from one side to the other. At times, it has to be replaced by the stake, due to the persistence of some fans, or an unfortunate theft attempt. Though, the latter is rare, it does happen every once in a blue moon. This also happens to the front door, so it has to be changed often.
✪ There are cameras just under the balcony, sitting at the top of the first left pillar. Another set of cameras sits on top of the balcony, attached to the wall and glass hall. All cameras are hooked up to the two TV's in the study loft.
✪ She's considering a loft to build in her room, just above her closet, and has already made one in the Study. [This applies mainly for Yachi's verse, specifically, as it was Oikawa's gift to her for her birthday, but will be repurposed as a part of her house for separate verses]


First and foremost.
This account is 20+, and contains mild NSFW themes more than simply sexual. I do not, and will not, interact with minors. And if you are uncomfortable, you are free to softblock.
I am trans myself, so a lot of what Oikawa experiences may come from my own lens, while the rest I've pulled from other research. Please do not come into my DMs or comment on female spins of characters being "transphobic." I'm not open to hearing arguments on whatever logic there is behind the thought. I am, however, open to genuine questions if it is in regards to Oikawa.
Everything I have included in Oikawa's carrd, I have done my best to research and reference before going through with making it a part of her story. I want to ensure I know what I'm writing about, but I can make mistakes.
I am forgetful, at times. If we have a thread that I have yet to reply to after a few days or so, you're free to ask about it or bump it up. Chances are, I might have lost it due to Twitter's algorithm issues.
I make an effort to read everyone's carrd's and/or pinned tweets, but if I make an error in reference to your character, please feel more than free to correct me. I will make sure to re-read, but, as in the last point, I can be quite forgetful.
My posts tend to be sporadic. I apologize in advance.
Fandomless OCs are completely okay, aside from god-like beings, as I often am unsure of how to interact with them.
I do not follow-for-follows, but if I am genuinely interested in your character/portrayal, I will more than likely follow back. Sometimes an overly active timeline can also become overwhelming.
For my own comfort, I do not follow doubles of my muse, and normally for my verses, I don't follow multiples of one character, if one is already involved with Oikawa. Some exceptions have been made, but it is not a common occurrence.
My Oikawa follows most of what's canon, up until the timeskips occur. She's somewhat a mash of all the ideas I have accumulated over the course of having her as a character, even before bringing her to twitter [About six+ years, now]. I've made great efforts in trying to form cohesion between these ideas and am always working on how I can weave them together in better ways. If you aren't fond of her or my portrayal, that's fine and understandable.
I know it's stated about 9857384 times across the entire carrd, but my portrayal of Oikawa is transgender. I feel the need to reiterate this once again, due to how many people ignored it or played it off as a joke in the past. She uses feminine pronouns and has only had top surgery. She has legitimate concerns about bottom surgery, but please do not assume your character knows about that unless they have gotten close enough for her to talk about it. Any legitimate jokes, or repeated ignoring of this fact/misgendering her will result in a softblock.
My interpretation is still petty, and can still get quite jealous depending on the circumstances. She is 27 now, though. She's had time to grow and mature, at least somewhat, and more importantly - reflect on her past. She might get annoyed a little bit at [an] Ushijima's presence, or go immediately into bickering with them, but she doesn't downright hate Ushijima's guts, and might even get along with them at some point, if given the opportunity to find common ground. Please understand this.

🔻 Explicit sexual NSFW is preferably done in DMs. Vague nsfw, teasing, or joking about is timeline-OK with me.
