@pkkenI'm finally done with Asuka's bio! I'll just post it here for confirmation before I put it up in the character tab.

Asuka, unlike her sister, has mostly lived a fairly ordinary life. She never had trouble making friends at school, never was truly isolated save by her own choice, and generally simply passed her time in idle amusement, surrounded by friends, playmates, and acquaintances. She wasn't even there on the day of the fire that nearly killed her sister, as due to a stroke of luck on her part, she just so happened to be at home, sick.
However, it's precisely because of the ordinary way she lived her life that she rapidly became unable to understand her sister. When both were children, Fumika would constantly follow Asuka around, doing whatever it was her sister wanted to do. While at first Asuka didn't really mind this - having her big sister there to play with her no matter what was pretty fun, even if she was kind of spacey - when she began making more friends of her own, she quickly grew annoyed at Fumika's constant presence. Her constant inane questions and creepy staring started getting on the nerves of not only Asuka's friends, but eventually, Asuka herself. They did their best to avoid or otherwise leave Fumika behind so that they wouldn't have to put up with her weird attitude ruining their fun. Although Fumika never once protested this, she finally asked Asuka one day why nobody would spend time with her. She might have been dense, but even she came to the obvious conclusion.
"Sister... Do you hate me?"
"Yeah! I do! You're stupid and annoying and you keep getting in the way! Why don't you just leave me alone?"
The moment these words left Asuka's mouth, she realized she'd gone too far, but Fumika didn't protest. She simply nodded, quietly apologized, and went back inside. At that point, the Motome sisters ceased interacting with one another almost entirely, and Fumika never bothered Asuka or her friends again. Instead, her elder sister spent almost all the time she was home shut up in her room, and, more often than not, wasn't home at all, as she met Haruka shortly thereafter and began following her around instead. Asuka tried once or twice to start a conversation, but Fumika usually would only respond with the barest, most minimal of answers, then swiftly return to her own business. Asuka, crestfallen, gave up on making up with her sister. When Fumika herself was seriously burned and Haruka - whom she hardly knew, save as her sister's weird friend - lost the use of one leg, Asuka had no idea how to react. She should have been able to do something to console Fumika, but what could she say? At this point, she's reasonably certain that after what she said and did, Fumika hates her.
Even so, now that Fumika's only friend can't go with her anymore, and her sister is all alone again... Asuka can't help but feel like there's something she should be able to do. What if her new classmates ignore or bully her? What if she can't make it as a hero? What then? Deep down, despite their inability to see eye to eye, Asuka cares about her sister deeply, and wants to be sure she's alright. And perhaps the only way to be sure of that would be...

{"I know it isn't. It makes me feel stuffy, so I don't wear it. Besides, don't I look pretty cool like this? I've got a kinda rebellious vibe."}
{"Not really. You look like you just woke up and you're running late. ...But then you'd need a piece of toast... Toast. I'm hungry."}
{"S-shut up! What do you know about style, anyway? ...Aaaaaand she's not even paying attention anymore. Stupid sis..."}
