Describe your activity on the server:
I am online every day for a rough 5 hours. I am usually on my main account, Zrle.
I have stayed primarily in the sports faction, and have not had a chance to get involved with other factions just yet, but I am interested in starting to do so. For a brief history of my time on SchoolRP; I started playing in 2020 and quickly got involved in being an employee at a shop, and joined the Highschool swim team. Following that I took a break, and returned in 2022, where I fell in love with the volleyball plug-in and quickly joined highschool females. I stuck with that team for a long time, before taking a break again only to return to the same team where I stayed for over two years consecutively. I only left the team recently in 2026 to become Captain of the College Female Volleyball team. With that I have stayed captain for just a couple months and I have loved my time there.

Shop Information
⠀⠀⠀˖⠀⠀˖⠀⠀⠀
What shop are you applying for?:
I am looking to revamp Jaibatsume Cosmetics to Kisetsu!
What is the meaning behind the name?:
Kisetsu [季節] is a japanese word, roughly translating to “season.” In short, this eludes to what the shop would be about, but it focuses on keeping up with trends and seasons.
Why do you want to become a Shopkeeper?:
Creativity
It is single handedly the role I’ve wanted most as I want the chance to create an experience, where I get to customize every little detail. From the build, to what is sold, and who works there, you get the chance to have the most control. The shopkeeper role is undoubtedly one that takes tremendous creativity, and I would love to be involved in that process. There are so many different ways to express oneself through the role, from creating a discord server, customizing the build, and choosing each item, among many other aspects. I find the process incredible and really want to experience it.
Community
I want to both be able to foster a community, and also provide back to the community which I have been in for the past 5 years. As a shopkeeper I can buy customs and sell them for the entire server to enjoy, while still helping support SRP through monetary avenues. All the while, I can create a friendly community with employees, and foster relationships with players who enjoy entering the shop to see each new addition.
Experience
Like most people, I have worked at a LOT of different shops over the years, from restaurants such as Shizukesa, to formerly being a manager at Mihiyo (Okinasa) which was retail, and working at Umisachi, an accessories shop currently. Throughout this, I have felt the most connection to what's being sold at Umisachi, even going as far to sell multiple of my personal customs to the store. Though, despite all these experiences I have only ever been a worker, rather than a shopkeeper due to it being an application role, I have felt undoubtedly inspired by all the shopkeepers before me, and I want to live the experience of running the store, rather than just as an employee.

What do you plan to do with your shop, and what makes it unique?:
Seasons
The theme of Kisetsu will revolve around the seasons. Just as outfits change depending on the season, so should your life, furniture, props for holidays, and any go-to accessories that fit! Picture your house, and you think, “Oh well, let's decorate it for Valentine’s Day,” but then come to the realization you don’t have very many Valentine’s Day props. Well, just in luck, as Kisetsu has changed their stock to have spring-themed decorations where you can buy various Valentine’s items, so your house can look better than the rest. To be truly unique, we will have plenty of rotating custom items that aren’t sold year-round, special designs, and events that go along with the theme of the season.
Throughout the seasons, the shop will go for slight reworks. Of course, the base theme and build layout will stay the same, but colors, items, and events will shift with the season, and events will be themed accordingly.
The main seasons . . . Spring, Summer, Fall, and Winter. But yet there’s more! Each season will have a distinct theme. For the first year, there will be Blooming Love Spring, Firework Summer, Foliage Fall, and Icy Winter. If a theme does well, it can be reused in future years; at other times, a new theme will be focused on, with new customs, and only a few from prior years will be used. The Shop would serve as not only just seasonal items but items specifically for holidays. Almost like a dedicated holiday decor shop where people can find anything to match the holiday easily.
Lastly, the shop will have a studio set decorated with all the furniture of the holiday, for any models who want to take a photo in the most decorated and up-to-date hotspot in Karakura. In the case that the shop isn’t open, there will be an application for any usage of the model studio. This allows Kisetsu to pair with any tailoring discords with models to make other servers come to life.

What events do you have planned?:
One major aspect of the shop will be the themed events, there will be one for each different theme (roughly once every three months).

The goal is to find all three flowers first, to get a love-related item to give to their partners. To find the flowers, they get to learn about the meaning of flowers through a clue.
Firework Nights ⋆✴︎°｡⋆⋆✴︎°｡⋆
A more relaxed event, fireworks will be displayed outside of the shop. There will not be free items for this particular event, but rather an enjoyable evening. Possibly could pair with a restaurant to hold a dinner after, with the firework theme.

Character Information
⠀⠀⠀˖⠀⠀˖⠀⠀⠀
In the office of shop applications, there was a singular bundled yellow envelope. Across it was a pink ribbon, with an elegant bow tying it together. Stamped onto it was the name, “Ayuri Kōki.” As you opened it, and pulled out the stapled bunch of papers, the application displayed crisp handwritten statements.
What is your name?
“Ayuri Kōki”
How old are you?
“I am 25 years old.”
What is your nationality?
“I am Japanese, born and raised in Tokyo, I only moved to Karakura as of recently.”
What is your Marital Status?
“I am single.”
What shop are you applying for?
“A new holiday and decoration shop called Kisetsu.”
What are your aspirations in shopkeeping?
“I wish to create a well-known name, in favor of my father and our history, as my family used to own an accessory store in Tokyo, and I wish to create my own legacy in Karakura.”
This question seemed to be done in a quick manner, the long strokes of each letter blending into one another, as if Kōki could not be bothered to lift her own pen. This came down to her simply finding her own aspirations simple.
This question seemed to be done in a quick manner, the long strokes of each letter blending into one another, as if Kōki could not be bothered to lift her own pen. This came down to her simply finding her own aspirations simple.
What certifications do you hold?
“I just finished college for a degree in Business Management and took classes for Fashion Marketing.”
What makes you qualified to be a shopkeeper?
“For starters, I have a wide history of knowing how to run a business, both through my family's businesses and through schooling. I excel in management and organization. I also truly want to raise a good shop, where people feel confident to express themselves, and buy from the shop because of unique designs and items.”
The pen seemed to have more confident strokes here; the woman clearly knew her own worth. Despite the short answers.

What is your backstory?
“Ah. Well. . .”
There was a pause, and the handwriting altered slightly; perhaps the woman did not know quite how to answer this and took a while on that question.
“I suppose I should just start from my childhood. I was born in a fairly wealthy area of Tokyo. My family has always been a vital aspect of my life. In my early years of education, I was just a normal child. As I grew up, I helped in my father's store, and learned a wise hobby of making my own clothing. The feel of a needle is one of my favorites, and I started to design clothes for runways when I was 16. I would not say I was a genius, but merely very passionate, and was willing to learn what it takes to succeed. I plan to do the same here. Though I say I am new to Karakura, I moved here when I was 20, and finished my college here. Luckily, I haven't had any experiences that ended super poorly.”
The question was left on a pause, not adding anything more to it. Though there was likely truth to the answer, the shortness of it left more to be questioned, and definitely there was more to the story.

N/A
Do you have any questions?:
Given that the idea is based around a rotation around the seasons (every 3 months), how possible would it be to regularly change the interior of my shop?
