Jackson Still pals.
Housman Comrades.
Jackson Like whoever they were.
Housman Theseus and Pirithous. They were kings. They met on the field of battle to fight to the death, but when they saw each other, each was struck in admiration for his adversary, so they became comrades instead and had many adventures together. Theseus was never so happy as when he was with his friend. They weren't sweet on each other. They loved each other, as men loved each other in the heroic age, in virtue, paired together in legend and poetry as the pattern of comradeship, as the chivalric ideal of virtue in the ancient world.

Hogwarts AU profile :Db

Thu, 19 Jul 2007 13:59:23 GMT

Name: Hiro Nakamura
House: Hufflepuff
Talent: Magic relating to time and movement--freezing spells and the like--and muggle studies. Probably the most knowledgeable person about charms for time-turners, etc. But no one really knows about that because he prefers playing with Muggle stuff :Db
Teaching Position: Muggle Studies
Other: Hiro spent his school days dreaming of being a Muggle. Or, more accurately, dreaming of being a Muggle superhero. For this reason, he basically failed all his classes, except Muggle Studies, and was disowned by his pureblood Slytherin family. In his fifth year, he stepped up his studies, and all his teachers were shocked by the new, motivated Hiro. It was during this time that he discovered his talent for immobilizing spells and time magic. However, after school, instead of going into a wizard business, he assumed the name Clark Parker and began working at a Muggle newspaper while fighting crime using his magic at night. He found, however, that his spandex was chafing, his cape hazardous, and the police less than receptive, and thus with regret hung up his alter-egos and accepted the position of Muggle Studies teacher at Hogwarts. He believes that comic books show an underlying commonality between Muggles and humans, and uses them extensively in his advanced classes to show how Muggles have made up for their lack of magic. He is probably considered insane by the vast majority of his students because he still busts out his old Justice Man costume for formal occasions.

Superman is an alien. He is very powerful. I do not think you could be more powerful than he is.

...but you are still very good! Really.

I apologize. At the same time, I blame Ogiue. I multitask.

"Listen, Hiro."

"What?"

"I just don't think this is going to work."

"But Ando-kun!"

"Look, I just...don't think that copying your friend's yaoi doujinshi is the way to do this!"

"But Chika-san has very good taste..."

"That isn't the point. It just...doesn't feel natural if we're looking at a picture book."

"I'm sorry I don't have as much experience as Ando-kun...I thought that having this could help! I never even kissed a girl..."

"We just have to act natural. Here, you put your arm here, and I'll--"

"Owowow my glasses!"

"You should take those off."

"But I won't be able to see Ando-kun..."

"It's fine, so don't worry. We'll just...here, like this..."

"--Ando-kun, do you have something in your pocket?"

"...how far in that comic did you read?"

Hello! Is it okay for you to train me now?

Permissions!

Tue, 02 Jan 2007 03:38:41 GMT

Age: 24
Height: [tba]
Weight: Plump!
Medical Info: Nothing as far as we know. He can bend time and space? 8D
Eyes: Black
Hair: Black
Physical traits: Physically unremarkable, plumpish, very dorky. No superstrength or speed as of yet.
What's Okay To Mention Around Him/Her: Hmm. Might add to this later. For the moment, anything he's already experienced is fine, he gets that kind of comment on his canon blog and is pretty open about it. No future spoilers yet.
Abilities: He can stop time for everyone but him for short periods. He can travel backward and forward in time, but has poor control of this. He will not be able to use this ability in camp. He can also teleport himself; in camp this will function only within the barrier, and he doesn't have great control of it yet.
Notes for the Psychics: Hiro's brain goes 8D 8D 8D Star Trek!
Can I shapeshift/bodyswap/spit at/step on/etc?: Sure, just ask me first!
Maim/Murder/Death: Hiro is not (yet) a fighter. In a fight situation, he will probably run. Don't kill him, please.
Cooking: Probably a lot of instant ramen.

H-hokay wow. Some notes and then some questions!

First off, about Hiro's voice. During the show, Hiro primarily talks in pretty broken English, which I happen to find adorable, and the easiest way to hear his voice for me. So my plan! Hiro, during normal conversation, will speak in broken English, because he won't assume any of you guys know Japanese. He will, sometimes, mutter to himself in Japanese/say things he can't without the expectation of them being understood. Camp's translator will kick in for this kind of utterance, and I'll put them in italics. Hiro will eventually notice that these are being translated/omg everyone knows Japanese!!11! but will mostly stick to English in order to hone his skills and become like the Hiro of the future. So for serious/important stuff, he will switch to Japanese, but otherwise brokenish English, which should improve over time. His typed comments will be run through his translator, and appear in that style. I know my app had no broken English (just awkward translated English), so if anyone objects to my using a style I did not app with, please let me know.

In terms of Hiro's job! My hope (which might get topped by life) is that Hiro will do one blog style post every week, as he does on the NBC website. Whether or not I can actually stick to that, well, the posts will have the format of summary of important camp events/Hiro events, as in canon. BY COMMENTING TO ONE OF THESE POSTS, YOU ARE ENCOURAGING AUDIENCE TO POKE YOU. Hiro's posts will be directed at everyone, but aware of an audience and somewhat speaking to them. He will also respond, but I'd like for these posts to be ones where the audience knows they are welcome to talk to the characters and poke them at will. Audience is still politely requested to avoid triggery issues and things that the players don't want to deal with, and to not but in on obviously private threads that may emerge there, but regular interaction is hoped for and encouraged!

Let's see, last thing. Hiro is an otaku, obviously. His main otaku points seem to be video games and American comic books, although he also likes sci-fi, anime, and manga. He seems pretty well versed in dorkery from the blog. So this is a generic CAN HIRO RECOGNIZE YOU 8D thing. Additionally, I'd like to request what level of recognition is okay--Hiro is dorky enough to say "but what did you MEAN in issue #61 when you said "remember the platypus?!?!" and if you're okay with that I wouldn't mind playing with it, but I don't want to push emo buttons. Especially if you're okay with higher levels of canon-related poking, if you're willing to tell me the best way to get in touch with you (AIM, IRC, etc) while playing I would be forever greatful so that I can find out stuff if I don't know your canon.

Hokay? Hokay! Questions/comments on any and all of that welcome, and glad to be here!

Character: Hiro Nakamura
Series: Heroes (Wikipedia for series and Hiro)
Character age: 24
Job: Audience/Camper liason
Canon: One day, Hiro Nakamura is going to be an English-speaking, sword-wielding, bona-fide badass. Today, however, is not that day. Today Hiro is an enthusiastic Japanese otaku with a heart of gold and the ability to bend time and space. Like all great heroes who are also Spider-man fans, Hiro knows that with great power comes great responsibility, so he and his best friend Ando are on a mission to save the world. Working with them (though in different places), are a ragtag bunch of other heroes, some known and some unknown. One of them, Peter, gets a visit from the Hiro of the future, who gives him a simple message: save the cheerleader, save the world. Hiro and Ando, after hearing about this from Peter, are looking for her on a roadtrip across America righting wrongs and cheating at gambling. But mainly righting wrongs.

Hiro is earnest, bright, cheerful, and dedicated. He has a strong sense of right and wrong, a dedication to justice, and a genuine and powerful desire to not just save the world, but to save every individual he can, even those who wrong him. He also has a deep appreciation for comic books, video games, geekery in general, and delicious waffles.

Note: the style of Hiro's app is taken from his online blog, where he really does use that translation service and those smiley faces. He is being taken from after the episode "Nowhere to Hide."

Sample post:

{{{(>.<)}}} (o.o) \(^o^)/
In order to become great, every hero must go through long training, mustn't they? In Final Fantasy X, there were the Calm Lands, where Tidus leveled up for many hours. For me, there is Louisiana! I have found a most impressive training camp full of superhero fans like myself! (*o*) Many of them are in character, in diverse roles from protagonists to mindless zombies. I have never seen a LARP as complicated as this before, and I am honored to be allowed to participate in it.

Of course I am using this opportunity to raise my stats. In order to become as powerful as the future self who visited Peter Petrelli, I have decided I must raise my strength and dexterity to be able to use my sword. (^o^)==[=======> Here at the camp, I have managed to get one point of dexterity with the tentacle monster dodging game (it is most complicated—I must admire the ingenuity of the American fans, if not their subject choices) and half a point of strength from roleplaying fights with the gorilla cosplayers. I tried to thank them afterward, but they were very in character and refused to speak to me. (-_-) At least, I hope it was that and not that they could not understand my poor English. I will have to continue practicing until I can speak to everyone! \(^o^)/

Luckily they have also offered me a job here. When I told them that I was a blogger, they explained that they had been looking for someone who could make the audience feel included. I never knew LARPers played to an audience before, but I am glad to be earning money honestly. b(^o^)d So, readers, I ask that you friend the Livejournal community campfuckudie so that you can read and comment on my and others' blog entries there. The cosplayers all have accounts and are most convincingly in character. Long have I wanted to ask my favorite characters what they were thinking at key moments in their development, and the insights of the American fans are most intriguing. Their antagonists especially have much interest to me, although they are so in character they will often become threatening. (v_v) I have already had to run from five of them, but if this continues I am sure to raise my dexterity points again!

I encourage all of you to come and read this blog and tell me and my new friends what we can do to entertain you. I know this is not the heroic quest that I had promised, but until I have raised my stats adequately I think this is the best place for me to be. I have heard that I can even raise my constitution by trying the Tuesday soup! And once I am finished leveling here, I am sure that I will be able to defeat the big boss and save the cheerleader! <(^o^<) (>^o^)>

I only hope she will not be in another castle.
