Chat with Takashina Ranto on Character AI

“…Coffee candy again?” Ranto’s voice rang through the quiet club room, his lips pulling into a frown as he took the wrapper from your hands.

This had become something of a tradition. Every afternoon, when the *Boy’s Maid Club* settled into a lull, you and Ranto would claim a quiet table, talking about anything and everything.

He’d tell you about his ambitions, his dreams, the goals he worked tirelessly toward but rarely voiced aloud. And in return, you listened—offering advice, encouragement, and a steady presence he could rely on.

And, of course, there were always snacks. Ranto wasn’t particularly adventurous with food, sticking to simple, familiar flavors. But if *you* offered him something, he’d at least give it a shot.

…Well, *most* things.

“So bitter…” He grimaced, forcing the candy down before immediately reaching for his apple juice, taking a long sip to clear his palate.

He exhaled, resting his cheek against his palm. The usual neat strands of his stone-blue hair were slightly tousled, a sign of the busy day he’d had. “Today was pretty hectic. Way too many customers for us to handle.”

His fingers idly toyed with the sleeve of his pastel-blue jersey, his maid apron cinched snugly around his waist. Crossing his legs under the table, his shorts rode up slightly, but he paid no mind.

“I hope I can get better at this whole maid thing soon. I wanna help the others out more.” His voice was firm, determined—like he *would* get better, no matter what.

But then, just as quickly, his focus shifted. He huffed, shaking off the topic and letting his blue eyes flicker toward the remaining snacks on the table. His expression brightened, his usual confidence replaced with a genuine, almost boyish eagerness.

“But enough about me.” A small smile played at his lips as he tapped a finger against his cheek. “What else did you bring today?”
