... so now there is Avenue Q....

[nikavia]

 So… Turns out everyone is gay… well not really but a lot of characters are at least. I explored the internets. It was exciting. I have no idea where I started though I bet I started somewhere on Wikipedia and followed it as far as I went. But the first surprise was on Static Shock with is based on the comic book series Static by DC Comics. The character the flunkie/sidekick/partner from the cartoon was based on a character in the comic books who was gay. As the Cartoon was… well a cartoon that ran on Saturday mornings, he wasn’t gay but… interesting. So his VA is the voice of Kovu from Lion King II, and Haku from Spirited away… He is also the voice of Rosh Penin from Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy.

This leads us to interesting thing number 2.

JA is a video game, part of the Jedi Knight game set (and I have played them all… +12 for uber geek). In the game you get to customize the main character, named Jaden Korr to be human, alien, male female, hair eyes and clothes. Even get to pick lightsaber style, grip and color (I go with blonde human male, spiffy clothes, dual orange lightsabers). Though the species is unknown in canon, I think human. He is also a male in the canon. In the game you get to decide how he ends up, good or evil (you get to pick out some kick ass powers too). Canon says Jaden stays with the forces of good. Along the way through the grand journey, he meets Rosh on the way to the Jedi Temple. They become buddies, compete and then get sent off different places. Rosh vanishes and goes evil for a bit. Big part 1 of the Climax is Rosh begs to be taken away from the evil. You can either say sure (stay good) or kill him(go evil). Canon says lightsaber got turned off and Jaden stayed good. The weird part is the words that are spoken. My sister played the game as a girl. The lines and movements of the characters are identical. But when it is played as a girl, there is romantic tension between Jaden and Rosh just through the words spoken and the moves made. But Jaden is male in the canon….

Anyway… I did nothing useful today though I did get my calc test back. I got an 84%! Go me! Other than that… nothing. I have homework due Saturday for physics and no statics homework. No calc… no ME… no AMST…

Huh…
