Mochi&Tilly（WIP）
Overview
Mochi & Tilly is an original cozy character IP inspired by my pets. Their designs are based on their real-life appearances, personalities, and everyday behaviors, reimagined with new identities, occupations, and places to call home in a soft, warm little town full of everyday charm.
The café, library, grassy fields, and little town make up the world Mochi and Tilly share. There are no grand adventures here. Instead, their stories are built around small, heartwarming moments—a latte that turns out perfectly by accident, a row of books suddenly tumbling down, a lazy afternoon in the sun, or simply enjoying the quiet company of friends.
Character Animation
Mochi is a round, mochi-like Siamese cat who works as the town’s barista. She is earnest, energetic, a little impulsive, and slightly clumsy, always treating even the smallest task as if it were something incredibly important.
Tilly is a quiet and sensitive calico cat who works as the town librarian. She is timid and easily startled, but also observant and curious. She loves peaceful corners and can often be found quietly hiding away somewhere in the library.

Personality Design
The characters’ inner personalities — an expression of “Who I am.”
Mochi is warm, energetic, and endlessly curious. She takes everything she does very seriously, but her easily distracted and slightly clumsy nature often leads to little accidents.
Tilly is quieter and more cautious. She is smart, thoughtful, and attentive to details, but her sensitive nature also makes her easily nervous and startled.
Social Interaction
The characters’ outward personalities — an expression of “How I interact with others.”
Mochi is naturally outgoing. She loves greeting others, sharing what she has, and checking in on the people around her. She also openly seeks attention, affection, and companionship.
Tilly, on the other hand, is shy and often feels awkward in social situations. She tends to stay in the background and quietly observe, but whenever someone genuinely needs her, she can’t help feeling secretly happy to be useful.
