Level 18

[Action A: Around 1766 Beaver Street]

[There is new purpose in Almaz' movements today, in his determination, in his goals and actions! It's hard to say what has come over him, either way he's in his yard training. Training how you ask? With a broom handle and a badly constructed scarecrow.... Seems he has a new fire to try and be a proper hero.]

[Action B: Outside the comic book store]

[Almaz has a bag full of new comics and is sitting on the sidewalk outside the store with his SSP. Seems he's playing some kind of RPG]

Ha! Take that! Two more boss fights and the last crystal particle and I'll get the true ending! And back when this came out people were complaining you couldn't get a good ending for under 300 hours. I'll do it in 150!

[Phone]

So... I was sort of wondering, well I was wondering a few things. First, what does it mean to be a hero? Uh... in your opinion that is. There's a lot of ways to interpret a hero, isn't there? But then if you want to be the savior and true hero hero there isn't that many ways. I guess defining what a hero is is important then.....

Oh! I was also wondering how many people here have video games. Maybe those of us who do could do some kind of swap thing? Because though I have a lot of games And a lot of them unfinished.... it's not like you can just go pre order the next new release....

To win glory for yourself and make sure future generations remember your name, of course.

Because I did something totally awesome.

[He chuckles a bit.]

Though I do like the way you think. Are you a hero, kid?

Well, standards have changed over the years. Back in my day, it was the other way around.

[Huh, this is interesting.]

You don't need a title to be a hero.

You sound like a friend of mine.

[Enkidu had...always been the nicer one.]

Everyone acknowledges that you're awesome and powerful, duh. It gets to the point that you don't even need fancy titles, just your name.

Yeah, he is.

[He sounds wistful for a second, but then perks back up again.]

So? Heroes exist for breaking the system!

You'll never rise above being a plebian with that type of thinking! Heroes don't let anything control them! Even if it bites them in the ass at the end, they're not content with sitting on their asses and letting fate direct them! Come on, show some backbone!

See? That's why you're not a hero yet--you don't have the mindset of one.

[He's getting more and more excited.]

Hey, I bet I can give you some hero-ing lessons!

Heroes don't so much need oaths as they do heroic speeches. In fact, I can teach you to do that and much more. Like when to enter a scene properly or when to balk against destiny.

And the first hero, Gilgamesh, is telling you that they're unneeded.

Re: [Phone]

[personal profile] 1st_superhero 2012-05-04 05:05 am (UTC)(link)
WHAT? H-how? You never heard of the great and awesome GILGAMESH?

[He sighs.]

You...must be from a different world.

...I'm not that much of a jerk. They must have gotten me down wrong.

[Actually, he was a huge jerk, but he never noticed it.]

Huh? What game? Final Fantasy?

[There was a guy named after him in Final Fantasy, right?]
