I was the match and you were the rock
maybe we started this fire
At first glance, Kazuki seems very simple. He's calm, polite, quiet; he offers his opinion only when he is asked to and submits to those who try to provoke him rather than argue with them. He knows where he stands in the hierarchy of the castle as a wounded soldier, retired early, and he is comfortable there; he knows to whom he can speak frankly and which people he needs to be careful around. His life has kind of been thrown out of whack since his relationship with the prince became public knowledge, as Kazuki is now being treated like a lord might be. People think that since he's close to Apollo if they butter him up he'll tell Apollo to be nice to them too; Kazuki hasn't really figured this out yet, and spends his days avoiding people who suddenly want to befriend him. He doesn't like crowds, has never desired a large group of friends; he gets antsy if the spotlight is on him and hates being recognized. If he gets overwhelmed he becomes rather sarcastic, but for the most part he was never like that in the military. Back then he had the anonymity of being just another solider to rely on; now everyone knows he's Apollo's boyfriend. Kazuki is also technically the prince's tutor, but his job has become overwhelmed by his reputation.
When he's around someone he's comfortable with he's sardonic and snappy and actually really hilarious; he's super cynical and can tell depressive jokes better than anyone. Kazuki has seen the underbelly of the military and he's not afraid to talk about it these days, not when his leg aches and the pain urges him to lash out at those people he once respected. He will have a limp for the rest of his life, and it only gets worse in nasty weather. He's very intelligent, very quick to learn something new, and he's a natural with tactics and cartography. He understands the lay of the land in a very primitive, instinctual way that's usually more reliable than maps. He's incredibly dependable and loyal to his friends and if he says he'll do something he will damn well do it. He never backs down from his word and treats promises like they're the sanctity of law. He's been a very good influence on Apollinaris on that front, honestly. Kazuki tells the truth even when he knows it'll get him in trouble, and is terrible at managing white lies. He gets peevish when he's in pain and has a hard time asking for help for anybody, but this is when Apollo loves him best. Kazuki sustained his injury from invading pirates and nurses a little grudge over it still. He was born and raised in Rossore and still has the accent.

all we had burned on the pyre
