Shino tends not to get angry without a huge extended period of being pushed. He also tends to deal with frustration by disconnecting from whatever's bothering him at the moment with a solid wall of non-emotions. His default mode is to want to be alone--thus far, the only presence which has ever been a real net neutral or net positive is his father (although there are a few people he's meeting this year who have the potential to be equally nice). There aren't really times when he ever needs to get much more away from the world than he already typically is.

That said, his favourite place to be alone is his bedroom. Shino has never had a place where he's felt grounded in his life. As much time as he spent in Sapporo growing up, the family dynamic wasn't particularly stable and the money flow wasn't always as steady as one might hope, so there was quite a bit of moving and shaking in his childhood. For a while his favourite place to go when the world got big and scary was the crook of his father's arm, but as he grew up and differentiated he came to simply love being alone in his bedroom. There are a few things which have always been in his room since he could properly remember--the blanket his grandmother made, a little model fighter plane he got as a present from an older cousin, a (very manly) alarm clock with little ladybugs painted on the hands, and a very small framed photo of his parents looking very happy together. Wherever he's gone in his life, Shino has done his best to arrange his room the same way and set these particular things out in the same general proximity to one another. It's the place he recharges himself when the world gets him flustered. No matter where he is physically in his life, he knows he can go back to the current room he calls his own and see the same things he's always seen.
