Ai Kuran

As a child, Ai was more mature for her age unlike Yuki Kuran. In the Extra "I Like You", she is shown to adore Zero Kiryu as her "Father", until the following 'Love's Desire' where she is shown to have romantic feelings for him. However, she keeps quiet for her mother's sake. Ai does, in fact, tell Ruka Souen her feelings. Ai was a very observant child and seemed more aware of things happening around her than the adults were aware of. Ai has a good sibling relationship with her sister Ren Kiryu as they are shown scolding one another. A young Ai was very much hyperactive in nature, a trait which has followed her into adulthood. Between the years of letting go of her crush on Zero and Ren's birth, Ai showed a rather dark side in trying to manipulate her mother and foster father into producing a sibling for her. Primarily so, Ai could love her sibling and drink their blood as she rather dislikes the alternatives of transfusion bag blood and blood tablets. Once Ren was born, Ai gave up on the idea, instead focusing more on being a loving sister. Ai is shown to not tolerate anyone insulting her beloved sister simply due to her not being a Pureblood. When an old woman still loyal to the old vampire society voiced disgust at the Kuran bloodline having a "filthy blooded" child, Ai snapped and used her Pureblood powers to silence her and threatened the old woman to never speak of her sister so disrespectfully. It was only thanks to Seiya and Ren intervening that Ai calmed down. Due to growing up in the lifestyle of a Pureblood, Ai is naïve of some lower class customs. For example, she did not know what a "job" was. Ai often became annoyed by letters from Pureblood families asking for her to marry a Pureblood lord. She ignored them constantly.
