Background History: Shino is the only, and decidedly unplanned, child of Shibi Aburame and his wife. He was born in Prince George’s County Hospital in Maryland and spent most of his life in the area. His parents had never fancied themselves as well… parents and that fact played a major role in manner in which he was raised. It’s a wonder the boy is still alive really. This of course is a fact that is kept highly confidential as the Aburames had always been highly confidential people. On the outside, however, Shino was raised as what some people would call a military brat only with less moving around. Though his father wasn’t exactly a hardened military man he did do his fair share of traveling before he married Shino’s mother and attempted to settle down in suburban Maryland. However, Shibi excelled in the sciences and because of that his superiors eventually agreed that the man would be more useful in their laboratories than in the military ranks. Thus, in the end, Shino’s father spent more time away from his family located in offices and labs in nearby Washington D.C.

This left Shino mostly in the care of his mother, and while his father all but pushed a life focused on education and of course mathematics and science, his mother had a different view. She’d always been a very strange woman of varied and swiftly changing moods but mostly Shino’s mother taught music at a grade school near the base. She often enjoyed wine and taking her work home with her. Neither of those things were done in moderation. She even began Shino on the piano when he was only old enough to do nothing more than bang away at the keys. It didn’t take long for Shino to grasp the basic concepts of music and musicianship and excelled quickly with most any instrument his mother put at his fingertips.

Shino was of course closest to his mother. Odd though she could be, she was affectionate and encouraging and Shino grew to value her company above all. He was a momma’s boy in the very sense of the word. Although, he was not the type of boy to disappoint when it came to either of his parents. Shino took to his education as adeptly as he did music. He was tested and was deemed to have a very high IQ at a very young age. Something his parents took great pride in even if Shino never made much of it himself. His classmates did on the other hand and there were a few bullies here and there that attempted to make his life difficult because of it. But he had always been a very placid and easy-going boy so he mostly ignored the taunts and went about his days with out complaint.

This all changed when Shino was around 10 years old. His mother’s eccentricity had finally gotten her in trouble at work and ended with her losing her job. Shino started to notice that is mother’s bad moods seemed to last longer than they usually did. Not to mention the fact that his parents usually quietly polite disagreements had noticeably increased in decibel level. Nonetheless, Shino keep his head down and mind focused on his school work and practice, practice, practice. His mother made a point to make it out of bed for piano practice everyday afterall.

As Shino got older, he did however start to develop interests that were all his own. He started to show interest in computers, photography and film. Something he mother quietly encouraged by providing him with a camcorder for his eleventh birthday. Shino mostly just filmed things that occurred in his normal everyday life. His mother seemed proud of him nonetheless. His father remained as indifferent about it as ever. As long as it didn’t interfere with his school work there was no reason for him to put a stop to it.

When Shino was twelve years old he came home and didn’t find his mother there. He hadn’t found his father there either but that was had been the norm so he hadn’t thought much of it. However, it was still strange that his mother had missed practice for the first time since ever. It wasn’t still the next morning that he came down stairs to find his father sitting alone in the kitchen. His father sat him down and calmly explained to him that his mother had died. Whatever his father had said after that, Shino couldn’t quite remember. He did recall that though Shibi seemed quite sad he also appeared to be strangely embarrassed by the entire thing. Shino didn’t practice much after that.

Then there was the therapy. Although, he didn’t necessarily like it, Shino could see his father’s point. His mother had just died rather suddenly and quite mysteriously. Shino had noticed the change in his own mood. The sadness and lack of energy for anything besides sleep was troubling. And it had helped. His grades had improved. His father seemed a little less disappointed but nonetheless as distant as ever. Shino quickly figured out that it had more to do with the fact that Shino had seemed to need the counseling in the first place rather than the fact that it had appeared to be effective.

The boy prayed for college and luckily it came sooner than even he had expected. He graduated from high school at sixteen and was enrolled in college as far away from his father and the entire eastern coast of the United States as possible. It wasn’t quite California but he figured Arizona was far enough away. He did pretty well on his own at first. His grade stayed high and as long as they did his father continued to fund his education. That was of course until Junior year.

College life could be stressful all on its own. It certainly didn’t help when you were a double major and had anxiety issues. Not that Shino had made the fact known to his father or anyone else as long as he could help it. He had developed his own ways of dealing with his issues. Unbeknownst to him they were the very same one’s that his mother had employed most of her life and had directly contributed to the fact that hers had turned out to be as short as it had. Shino had been foolish and naïve and terribly ill prepared and it ended up costing him a great deal in the end. Mostly thought it had cost him his education and what little of a relationship he had with his father.

Shino left school but certainly not due to his own choosing and packed everything he had his car and headed toward the only job prospect he had at the moment. It was some place called Feel Good Inc. They liked what they saw thought Shino couldn’t even begin to guess why but it was certainly better than any other of the nonexistent opportunities he had going for him.

Personality, Likes & Dislikes: Although an extremely intelligent and gifted young man, Shino usually fails miserably when it comes to even the simplest of meaningful human interaction. This could possibly be attributed to his uncanny ability of being so blunt sometimes it unintentionally hurts, all the while being as polite as ever. Thanks to his upbringing he’s never really grasped the concept of tact, unfortunately giving him a seemingly emotionless temperament.

Those that have the interest required to look further will find that Shino does seem to really love technology and music. His apartment my not be spacious but the every bit of it available is occupied by either some type of instrument or something that requires electricity to operate. He also has quite the collection of CDs and DVDs. He’s not so secretly a bit of a movie buff and his extensive collection is of course alphabetically cataloged. It anyone touches it besides him, he tends to get a little twitchy. Shino can be a tad obsessive compulsive when it comes to his things. He’s very meticulous about where he places them. The boy likes order and rules and such thing that he deems to just make life less complicated.

Shino’s need for order is a part of the reason he speaks the way he does. Blunt and straight to the point means there’s less of a chance for confusion. Of course it doesn’t always go as planned however and it has attributed to Shino's reluctance to interact with others would be that his speech patterns can be a bit trying. Because really sometimes people just can’t handle the truth. Shino’s known to choose his words very carefully and always with purpose. However, it's his unusual way of phrasing his thoughts that seem to cause most the trouble. His way of speaking has been described by some as boring, unenthusiastic and after long periods just really annoying. It goes with out saying that he tries to do as little of it as possible.

Shino isn’t fond of large crowds. The reason being is that he doesn’t really like being touched unless it is absolutely necessary. Having the tendency to be come visibly agitated when someone delves too deeply into his personal space, Shino mostly keeps to himself when he is able. In fact his choice in clothing is directly related to his issue with touch. His preference for hiding himself behind dark sunglasses and dark clothing, consisting of mostly oversized hooded sweatshirts and jackets only adds to his curiously mysterious or sometimes down right creepy exterior. Even he will admit that his chosen wardrobe is an attempt to hide what he believes in a body that is undesirable. Shino is all long arms and legs. He sees him self as too tall for an almost too lean frame; too lanky and pale to show so much skin. He prefers this façade for the most part due to some pretty spectacular failures in past ventures of interpersonal interactions.

It turns out not to be much of a issue most of the time as he has quite a few quirks that keep people at distance for the most part. His avid interest in insects does not help matters.

Shino is a vegetarian. He doesn’t have an issue with anyone that is it as he sees it as a matter of preference and not one of morality.

Likes: Photography, film, watching movies, listening to music, playing piano, playing his guitar, learning to play new instruments, reading, animals, insects, coffee, fruit and fruit juice, vegetables, oatmeal raisin cookies.

Dislikes: People, children, frogs, flavored water, driving, traffic, small talk, crowds, shopping and enclosed spaces.

Sample Post:

First Person

I have not updated in a while and for those this concerns, my apologies. I have been a quite busy lately. Although, I am afraid there is nothing of interest to report.

I did, however, visit a casino recently. It was mostly out of curiosity and I did make sure to schedule my visit outside of peak hours. It was actually highly entertaining. I didn’t participate in any of the games but I did witness something of an altercation near a slot machine. Apparently, one can leave a machine and come back and still have some type of claim to it. I found myself taking the side of the elderly woman if only in spirit. It didn’t appear that she needed any assistance with the man she’d had the disagreement with. Security handled the remainder of the matter quite efficiently anyhow.

Also, it appears that counting cards isn’t has difficult as I was previously lead to believe. It is however extremely frowned upon. That is as much as I am able to say at the moment as I have be advised that revealing anymore would lead to severe damage of my kneecaps. And I prefer my kneecaps unharmed, thank you.

Third Person

One day he figured, more like hoped in that deep, dark part of himself that still believed in that sort of thing, that the adult film industry would get a little more creative. Someone like him, of course, had come in a strange mixture of green and bright red. He had been inexperienced and mortified but he’d been desensitized rather quickly by the sheer amount of sex he’d had to witness on a daily basis. And now… well, it was all just so boring. They gave him the same angles, the same faces, the same fake moans and groans and he’d sworn he’d seen that hat in at least five other movies. It was all just so monotonous. In fact, it kind of made him not want to have sex at all, because really, even if the moaning and groaning were faked the actual act certainly wasn’t. He was starting to seriously doubt his career choice.

Shino narrowed his eyes, shielded safely behind dark glasses. That cut right… there. It was just… wrong. He couldn’t quite place his finger on how or even why at the moment. But it just was. The vague sense of wrongness would stay just that temporarily. That was until he figured out a way to cut this movie into something just on the other side of a hot mess. In the meantime, temporary was a good word. He would focus on that word and his dinner. Temporary was what this job was supposed to have been. He had liked have thought of it as simply a break between semesters and hopefully enough time for his father to stop hating him enough to finish paying for his schooling. That didn’t seem to be working out so well in his favor.

The song changed to something he couldn’t place entirely either. Something Emo and seemingly perfectly placed in the soundtrack that was now his life. He’d change it if he could find his mouse underneath all of this backlog. He was growing tired of this playlist. He frowned around a mouthful of carrots and peanut butter. His editing suite was a bit… disheveled. He really needed to make the time to straighten things up. He scratched absently at a thin strip of forearm that peeked out from beneath the sleeve of his sweatshirt and frowned even more.

Better music is exactly what this movie needed. A better director wouldn’t hurt either but who was he to say so. He was just lowly editing technician who now had to make magic out of bunch of crappy shots. Amateur porn indeed, he thought and buried his face in his palm and rubbed at tired eyes. He liked to keep it as dark in here as he could when he was by himself, but the light from the monitors was starting to give him a headache.
