Umi, despite being a young boy, is very unlike what most people expect from kids of his age. He's rather quiet and doesn't tend to talk too much without being prompted or being actively involved in the conversation, and can spend a lot of time just sitting nearby silently while others talk. Once he does start talking, he can be as chatty as any kid, but his voice has a quieter tone and sometimes volume even so. It's rare to get him really excited about something, but when he does, that's the only time his voice really rises, though if he notices that he's talking louder/more vibrantly, he tends to squash that and try to control how he sounds. It's not that he doesn't like talking, really, but more that he feels he needs to be quieter, and he's becoming bothersome by getting too worked up. He's also very reserved and tends to keep to himself. His thoughts, if he feels hurt, upset, sad, scared, even very vital things such as if he's hurt, feels sick, is tired, and other physical and mental warning signs. He rarely ever comes out with them on his own and tries his best to deal with things himself, and this tends to range from finding somewhere hidden to sob violently and tire himself out all the way to just bandaging his own wounds with whatever he can find and clean. He never wanted to be more of a burden, so he handled as much on his own as he could, and it's a hard thing to shake even with people who can spare more both in resources and attention. If asked directly, he'll try to brush it off, but if someone insists, he won't lie about what he's feeling and will admit to any hurts of any kind. It's just going to take someone prodding a couple of times to actually get the truth out of him. Having spent most of his life moving thanks to being given to the hidden, "free" group in Fusion, he doesn't have a feeling of permanence for most things. Possession isn't really a thing he thinks about; toys, books, even vitals like clothes were often abandoned or destroyed if they needed to move quickly, and that was in the rare case that something extra could even be found at all. Though the adults did try, most of Umi's life was spent going without anything of his own, which means he doesn't tend to attach to things very well or very quickly for fear it'll just be taken away. That said, once he does see something as "actually his", he's incredibly clingy and possessive with it and rarely shares because of that same fear. While he has learned to entertain himself with the simplest of things, this deprivation means that Umi doesn't really know how to play, especially not with other people, and double especially not with kids his own age. He has no skill to weaponize his cuteness and intentionally entrap people; instead, his nature makes him naturally cute and tends to invoke the protective nature of most people, so they still end up wrapped around his finger. Unlike Sora, he doesn't tend to use this for his own gain, but he does take what kindness people give as he's reliant on them for living well.
