☆ IN CHARACTER INFO ☆
Character Name: Alpha Hatsuseno
Canon: Yokohama Kaidashi Kikou
Canon Point: Pre-chapter 140 (end of series but like before it wraps up totally)
Character Age: ?Adult? It's hard to say precisely, there's no number given but while it's implied she's fairly young at the start of the series (age-wise? maturity-wise?? I have no idea), the canon point she's from covers the children she knows in her world growing to adult ages and having a child of their own.

Who are they?: Alpha is an android! An extremely human-like creation of mankind ostensibly designed to continue living on in a world where some unspecified cataclysm nudged humanity as a whole into its twilight age. There are others of her kind living in the world, all of them as unique and individualistic as the humans that made them.

As the main character, Alpha is someone the reader spends a lot of time with. Her journey begins as she runs a café - a store built into the home she and her master inhabit, which was her idea as a way to use the extra space in their building despite the location being extremely out of the way for any travelers. Despite that, she builds a rapport with the people in the nearby town, and it's noted that many of the people who stop by are interested in her particular brand of hospitality. The coffee she makes is good, yes, but she's consistently interested in sitting with her patrons and chatting with them after they've been served. She likes to learn about the people that pass through her little world, both the humans and occasional fellow android, and while she has obvious tells as being an android (unnatural hair and eye colors are, in her world, actually unnatural) both types of visitors note that there's something more human about her than anticipated.

Most of the story is told through vignettes, following the day to day life of either Alpha or the other people in her life. The chapters that follow her doing various activities, such as going into the city to shop, tending to her business, visiting friends, taking rides on her scooter, fixing up her home, observing holidays, and things of that nature, give a glimpse into what she's like as a person. The passage of time is highlighted both in the easygoing style of storytelling, but also in the fact that the world around Alpha changes, both in the landscape around her as well as the humans in her life, while she remains visually unchanged.

She's acutely aware of her position in this world, as someone who can sustain herself far more easily than any human ever could, and as someone who has to see everyone change, and eventually pass, around her. As such, she does her best to forge positive connections with those she comes into contact with. She's positive and friendly, and she does her best to help others when she can. At the same time, she can be very naïve and easily fooled, giving pretty much anybody the benefit of the doubt, even if they aren't receptive to her outlook.

Alpha's naturally very curious, using her unusual biology to her advantage to learn all sorts of things. She's often seen spending her free time reading all sorts of books, fiction and non-fiction, or dedicating time to learning various skills and crafts. She whittles and carves, a few of the decorations round her café being creations of her own, she repairs damage that time and the elements take on her home, she disassembles and cleans her scooter to upkeep it and understand its workings. She knows the limits of her biology, but attempts to grow and stretch those boundaries bit by bit. She observes the passage of time, and while she tries to make the most of it, sometimes making the most of it means simply basking in nature, having an afternoon nap and taking it easy.
