Please warmly welcome the friends joining FUR:RAID’s journey!
I'm Lu!
Um… could I take a photo with you?
I’m LU! Nice to meet you!
Height? Around 140 cm, I think… but I’m still growing, so don’t take it as final!
Weight is a little over 30 kg. I’m pretty light, so I can run really fast!
Age… still young, but I feel like I think like adults do sometimes!
Species-wise, I’m Artiodactyla—that’s what they call animals like sheep and goats. I know fancy words like that!
And I’m left-handed! People say left-handed kids are smart… maybe that includes me too!
I’m ENFJ!
ENFJs are supposed to really love people! Super understanding, kind of like a classic student council president!! Doesn’t that fit me perfectly? People say I can be a bit impulsive and quick-tempered sometimes… but I usually move before I even think about it!
(Well… Rico scolds me a lot, but I’ve got reliable Uncle Danyul, so it’s fine!)
If I had to pick keywords that describe me best…
Energetic!
I don’t really like staying still. I love going around places and meeting new people. New faces and new places always make my heart go thump thump.
Kind!
If someone looks like they’re having a hard time, I just can’t ignore it. My heart starts feeling all itchy if I just watch, so I have to help!
Happiness!
I love smiling faces. I smile, others smile—that’s the best thing ever! So when something fun happens, I want to share it with everyone. It feels a bit wasteful to enjoy it alone, right?
My special skill is taking photos!
But not just random snapshots—I like finding the exact moment when people smile the most naturally. “One, two, three!” photos are nice too, but I prefer those tiny bursts of laughter that just slip out unexpectedly. Those expressions are hard to recreate once they’re gone, so you have to catch them quickly!
That’s why, when I’m holding a camera, I start paying much closer attention to everything around me.
Who looks excited, who feels a little awkward, who’s striking a great pose right now… things like that. And when I spot a good moment—click! I take the shot right away. I don’t want to miss those moments.
I also like helping people get along better. When strangers feel a bit awkward with each other, I can step in and start a conversation.
“Want to take a photo together?”—just saying that can bring people a little closer.
Hehe… maybe this counts as a talent too, right?

I’m Riko.
Let’s try to get along.
Riko here.
…Not sure where to start.
Height’s around 170 cm, weight about 58 kg.
Anything physical—sports, dance—I can pick things up through repetition. I’m confident in that.
Species-wise, I’m from the leopard cat line… and don’t treat me like a house cat. Also, don’t touch my ears.
I got ISTJ on the MBTI test. Not that I trust it that much.
I’m pretty quiet.
It’s not like I hate noisy places. I just don’t really get why I’d need to talk more than necessary. The longer I talk, the easier it is for things to get messy. I’m more comfortable saying only what needs to be said, clearly and accurately.
It’s not that I dislike people. I’m just not great at getting close to someone right away. Still, once I trust someone, I don’t push them away easily.
The rest is probably easier to explain with keywords.
Quiet
I don’t talk much. I don’t really enjoy loud places either. That’s why I wear headphones a lot. I do listen to music, but sometimes… I just want to turn down the noise around me a little.
Blunt
My way of speaking isn’t exactly gentle. I’m not trying to hurt anyone, but I’m not good at talking around things. If something’s wrong, I say it’s wrong. I hate pretending it’s fine and letting things get worse later.
…I do think I should work on my tone a bit, though.
My strong point is anything physical.
Dance, sports, performing—things like that.
Honestly, explaining things with words is kind of hard for me. But showing it with my body is different.
When the rhythm lines up, my balance is steady, and the movement hits exactly right, there are things that come across without needing a long explanation.
That’s the kind of thing I’m more comfortable with.
As for talent… hm. I guess I’m pretty persistent. I don’t really like trying something once or twice and going, “Good enough.” If a move doesn’t feel right, I repeat it until it does. And I don’t find that process boring.
Knowing something in your head and having your body remember it are two different things.
Whether it’s dance or sports, if you want to actually use it, it has to become part of your body eventually. I think building it up little by little every day is more honest than suddenly pretending you’re good at it.

Hello. I’m Dan-yul.
Shall we take this slowly, together?
I’m Danyul.
I might look a little intimidating at first glance, but there is no need to be too afraid of me.
I am thirty-six years old, and I weigh a little over 120 kilograms. Compared to the others, I suppose I am on the heavier side.
My species is dragon. Since I have a fairly large build, I am confident when it comes to work that requires strength.
My MBTI came out as ISFJ.
Kindness.
That is a word LU and Riko often use to describe me. Maybe it is because I tend to have a gentle expression, or because when the two of them start arguing, I usually step in and give them a moment to breathe. I often find myself thinking about what I can do for others. The more urgent things become, the more important the small details are.
Delicacy.
My build and hands are rather large, even among dragons, but I am fairly confident when it comes to making things with my hands. Drawing, cooking, writing… perhaps that is why I always carry a diary and writing tools with me, so I can write down whatever comes to mind.
Advisor.
Since I am the oldest of the three, they often come to me for advice. Still, I do not want to decide the answer for them. But if there is something you are missing because you are in too much of a hurry, I can stay beside you and help you look at it more carefully.
I like the process of making something more than the finished result. Rather than something being perfect from the start, I prefer watching it gradually find its proper shape as it is adjusted and refined over time.
Whether it is a drawing, wood, fabric, or even someone’s heart, most things do not fit perfectly from the beginning, do they? But once you understand where something is a little crooked, you can start setting it right, little by little. I really like those moments when moving my hands helps sort out the thoughts that were tangled in my mind.
If I have any talent, I think it might be the ability to hold onto things for a long time. People, work, memories… I do not let go of them easily. Even if it takes time, I keep looking. Even if I am not very skilled, I try again. And if something needs time, I can wait.
It may not be the kind of talent that shines brightly all at once, but I think this kind of nature is not so bad when it comes to making things that stay warm for a long time.
Now that I have said it out loud, I feel a little embarrassed.
