Personality:
Ayuko doesn't stop to ask questions, he simply runs on ahead! You can rarely get him to stop or slow down, as he's always active and doing some activity, be it helping out at a local food shelter or swimming in the sea. He does suffer from insomnia, from time to time, due to his mind always thinking up new adventures and new things to do the next day. It's very hard for him to just relax and breathe deeply when he's always on the run, but he prefers a busy lifestyle to one that's not active enough for his boundless energy.
Because he is very energetic, people often accuse Ayuko of not being attentive enough and having a short attention span. He's always thinking of something, and sometimes he gets lost in his thoughts instead of being in the real world. While he's guilty of being both impulsive and not as attentive as he should be, children happen to love Ayuko because of his energy and joyfulness. He gets along great with the active children, enjoying spending time with like-minded individuals.
Ayuko often blurts out what he's feeling, and doesn't have any issues communicating. Unfortunately, he can be very harsh in his words, as he doesn't put very much thought into what comes out of his mouth. He's good at finding different ways to do something - though sometimes his ways take longer than other, more normal ones. For instance, if he needs to get a tissue box on top of a refrigerator, instead of shoving over a chair or step-stool and standing on it to reach the top of the fridge, he will leap up to the counter, pile up the coffee machine on top of the bread box, and stand atop that to reach the top of the fridge. Not only is his way more unsafe, but it takes longer and is not an easy set of actions to conduct. He definitely has never-ending energy, and often will bark or just make noise for no real reason other than letting out more of that pent-up energy. His energy is sometimes infectious, as if he's energetic, others will either be energetic or mad at him for being so energetic...so in a way, his energy is infections, but other times, it is not.
He is very athletic and agile. He can fit into the smallest of holes and can squeeze into practically any space. When he wants to do something, he sets his mind to it and doesn't give up! Even if the odds are against him, you won't see him throw in the towel - he'll keep trying until he gets it right. He's protective of the few things he owns, and can be seen as materialistic when, in reality, he simply doesn't like to share. He loves the few small items he has ownership of, and doesn't let practically anyone near them, let alone touch them. These items are very near and dear to his heart, and he won't give them up easily.
Ayuko understands that he's not the oldest pup out there, and that he can learn from every being he comes in contact with. He is willing to learn - if you have the patience and perseverance to teach him! It can be difficult to teach him anything, due to his rambunctious nature, but if you stick with a point long enough, he's sure to understand it. Ayuko accepts his failures, as he know that one can only learn from them and that one will never learn anything without mistakes. To make life better, one must improve, and to improve, one must first acknowledge his/her mistakes and learn from them.
While he doesn't make it a habit to relax, when he does successfully calm his mind down, he enjoys it very much. He already lives in an island, so he has the option of attending various tourist attractions to help calm his spirit - though he rarely does this, as he enjoys being busy.
Ayuko was orphaned at a young age. Both his parents were killed in a tsunami while they were out surfboarding. He has overcome this, and has moved on with his life. He found a new cause to enjoy and pursue, and now is the spitting image of dedication to that cause, and an image of tenacity and resolute determination.

Personality:
Asahavey is loyal to the core. He holds honesty, loyalty, and trust as very important things, particularly when he's looking for a friend. If someone breaks his trust, he'll first get very defensive, lashing out in anger. Eventually, when he cools down, he becomes sad almost to the point of being depressed, and will often be recluse after that initial breakage. He has a hard time giving a being a second chance, especially if that being has hurt him deeply.
Asahavey has very fixed ideas. He doesn't change his mind easily, and rarely changes his stance or opinion on something once he's made up his mind. Getting him to budge can be difficult, as he's extremely stubborn. This stubbornness sometimes gives way to pride - Asahavey, while attempting to not lord himself over everyone else, sometimes gets carried away, telling others of his intelligence and accomplishments. Sometimes he can seem very "holier-than-thou," but he doesn't mean to be that way - he only wants to make conversation. Due to his recluse nature, he doesn't have many friends, and isn't used to chatting or making small talk.
Asahavey is honest to a fault. He often blurts things out that shouldn't be said, or responds harshly when responding calmly would've been a better option. He usually doesn't see any problem with his ways, as his sometimes-prideful nature blinds him to the truth that he can hurt others feelings with the words he speaks.
Asahavey almost always takes the lead. He is confident enough to be a leader, and often ends up in this position. If forced to be a follower, he won't be happy and will often create issues just to get himself up higher on the ladder. He is often elected to be the leader by his peers, though usually he'll just appoint himself and deal with the dissenters in his own way. Seeing as he's an excellent leader who works well under pressure and stressful situations, rarely does he get complaints about his constant leadership positions.
If he's anything, Asahavey is determined. He cannot STAND it when someone says he can't do something for more than one reason. Firstly, he doesn't like being ordered around. Due to his mindset of always being a leader, he feels he shouldn't have to take orders from those not superior to him. Secondly, he doesn't like being put down, and to him, one of the many ways to put someone down is to state that they cannot do something. Asahavey knows from his own experience that he can overcome even the most difficult obstacles if he puts his mind to conquering them. He knows that with determination, he can do anything.
Asahavey is very independent. Due to his parents dying, he had to teach himself a lot of things, and because of this, he's very good at picking up new talents or ideas. He's very bold, and isn't afraid to tell it like it is. While he does have friends, they're often looked down upon by others, or are perceived as "odd" or "weird." Asahavey is very defensive when it comes to his friends and family, and he'll defend them if they're getting picked on, as he'd rather get the flack then see his friends and family suffer.
Asahavey is nearly fearless. Confident and courageous, he has integrity that surpasses most beings' integrity. Compassion is easy for him to feel, though he tries his best not to let this soft side of himself show very often. Asahavey is also protective. He is very concerned for the safety of those he loves, and would give up his life for them to live. The few friends he has he holds dear and close to his heart, so he is especially protective of them.

YOU ARE A WOLVERINE!
Powers: Fighting ability—strength, speed, and toughness
Nobody messes with Wolverines. You're fearless, assertive (okay, aggressive), and tenacious. You might be a Marine, or a middle linebacker. You're the best at whatever you choose to do, because you give yourself no alternative.

YOU ARE A BEAR!
Powers: Fighting ability—strength and speed—along with powers of strategic thinking
You're #1! At least, you're happiest when in charge. You lead with courage, integrity, and compassion. People gravitate to your confidence and charisma, and they feel safe in your care. But be careful not to believe your own hype—stubborn pride is every Bear's downfall.
~ http://jerismithready.com/quiz/#
YOU ARE A HORSE! The noble Horse is known for its speed and grace. Like the Horse, you seek freedom in all you do. If you roam wild, you will discover beauty everywhere. If you are tamed, you will bring leadership and safety to your loved ones.
