IC INFORMATION Characters Name: Mimio Age: Approximately 21 Canon Point: Post-series, after he has become Toshiaki’s lover. Species: Robot with cat ears and tail. Gender: Male Orientation: Gay; there is no evidence that he wouldn’t fall in love with a female character, but his canon has him created by a group of high school students, then advertised as a female-type machine designed to be a refined lady by day but a wild woman by night. He canonically falls in love with Toshiaki, a man. I feel that partially due to programming and canonic evidence, Mimio would identify more easily as gay.
History: Love Neco is a rather short canon- one volume total. The basic point of it centers around a huge prank, essentially. Three high school boys create love dolls based off of their ecchi game girls, except somehow what they love in 2-D doesn’t translate to 3-D so well. No problem. Modify the doll to be male, and sell it with a female photo on a website with a tiny disclaimer that item may not be exactly like the photo. Enter Yabuki Eiji, a high school teacher (and ironically, the teacher of the high school boys who create the robots). He buys the first one, Necoco, under the idea that she’ll be this perfect cat-eared lady, sweet and precious, the very embodiment of moe. What he gets is a pushy catboy, who’s more than willing to push Eiji down in the doorway and have his way with him. Admittedly not the best way to get your new owner to love you. And of course, there’s a no-return policy. Eiji somehow manages to tsundere his way through four chapters, slowly coming to terms with the idea that hey, maybe he really does have something for the catboy, finally admitting to it after a scary moment where Necoco’s batteries burn out and he thinks he’s dead. After Necoco’s batteries are switched, and he can properly confess, the bulk of the story is over. Mimio is a character from a one-shot extra, a catboy made by the same students. This time, however, his owner has no big conflict with the fact that Mimio is a boy. Toshiaki has apparently had a bit of time to adjust to the fact that the ‘refined lady’ robot he bought is not actually female, and he doesn’t seem to care. In fact, his big issue is that he loves Mimio, but all Mimio seems to see is a person unwilling to use him for his intended purpose, instead keeping him to do housework. Mimio is willing to do just about anything to get at Toshiaki, including pretending he’s asleep in order to get a kiss. This starts a fight, which quickly escalates to Toshiaki offending Mimio by telling him he should just keep to the housework and stop with the seduction. Mimio decides that perhaps he’d be better off dead, and tries to throw himself off the balcony, but is stopped by Toshiaki. The businessman then confesses his love for the catboy, who tearfully admits that he loves him too, but he wasn’t sure how Toshiaki felt and was willing to try and use his body to make him love him eventually. At the end, Mimio and Toshiaki become lovers- with Mimio being the unexpected top in the relationship. Appearance: There are no canon colors for him, so all colorschemes are my headcanon. Mimio is a smallish, slender catboy, almost delicate looking. I imagine he’s only about 5’3” or so, just above average female height in Japan. He has large eyes, possibly bright blue, and shaggy hair that I imagine to be white. His tail and ears match his hair. He typically dresses more feminine than not; the outfit he spends the majority of the chapter in is a baggy overshirt with pearls and ribbons sewn on, a black tanktop, a pair of dark shorts and knee socks. Personality: Mimio is a real sweetheart, created to be the perfect housewife. He’s concerned for the health of all in his household, and he will ask the embarrassing questions no one wants to answer in order to make sure that his family is healthy. He has very little to no shame, and does not care about who is around or where you are when he asks- proof of point, he asks Toshiaki when he takes care of himself over dinner. He means well by it; he was designed not just to be the perfect housewife but to be a love doll, and that’s just another part of his function. He harbors no delusions about what he is, but that doesn’t mean he doesn’t have emotions. He does, and he is willing to show them, often in extreme fashions. Mimio is also a sneaky little brat, and he will do just about anything to accomplish his goals. He will pretend to be asleep to get a kiss, and possibly worse for more. For him, the ends often do justify the means, but that doesn’t mean he doesn’t care about who he’s tricking. He would only resort to trickery in a very extreme situation. Given, though, “very extreme” to him is something a little less major to someone else. Though he is a robot, he’s more than a bit sentient, able to think and reason and draw his own conclusions. He does, however, know what he was made for, and he’s not shy about letting people in on the secret. He’s well equipped to co-lead a household, partially due to things I’ll go into in the abilities section, partially due to his strong will and determination to get things done, generally his way. Though he may not look it, he is a rather dominant person, mostly due to his programming, but also because he is unafraid to do what he needs to in order to get his way. Abilites: Mimio is a housewife, essentially, which means that he’s programmed to make sure the household runs as smoothly as possible. To this end, he can cook, mainly Japanese cuisine but certainly other kinds as well, and he is able to clean quickly and efficiently. I also imagine that he’d be able to mend things with decent success, and given enough time and a pattern able to sew anything. While his abilities are mainly domestic, he’s also a decent actor, able to pretend to be the dewy-eyed innocent when he’s most certainly not. Other:
SAMPLES First Person: [The cat’s got the hang of this cell phone thing. He hasn’t had much use for one before; home phones are decent enough to get hold of who he needs, and it’s not as if he left home often. But home is different now, and he has questions that need answering. And part of that involves a few false starts and finally this.] First off, I’m just wondering how I got here. And where here is. Last time I checked I didn’t have a yard, much less lawn furniture, and I sure can’t drive. So that’s question one. Question two, where can I find a gallon of milk? And maybe some eggs? I ought to start stocking up, right, I mean, how can you run a house without food?
Third Person: Mimio was starting to get settled in, mostly from necessity to have some sense of normal in his life than anything. This was just a bit upsetting though. He’d never had a new home to move into, to be frank, and so he had come in expecting what he’d gotten with Toshiaki: several days’ worth of laundry piled up, the dishes from dinner the previous night, and sweeping left for a week. What he got instead was a fresh, clean house, no laundry, no sweeping, just decorating and stocking to do. He wasn’t quite sure what to do with himself at first. It wasn’t that he had to clean, and obviously it didn’t require it, but it would give him something to do while he figured out what was going on. There was looking around to do, he supposed, until he got hungry enough to make something to eat. And, well, he’d never had a yard, just a balcony, so maybe looking in the backyard would be interesting… “Whoa… no way!” Mimio gasped in awe, hurrying over to the pool. He’d seen them on TV, but as for having one of his own, no way! Did he even know how to swim, oh, who cared. He had a pool, he could learn! And besides, this was like deluxe to him. He’d just gone from fairly high end apartment to house in the suburbs, perhaps this wasn’t going to be all bad after all.
