Hello, Entranceway! You can call me Hicku, and I'm the latest piece of freshmeat. I bring to add to the pile one Rupert Giles, first of Buffy the Vampire Slayer and now hanging around in Angel and Faith.
If he doesn't look how most of you familiar with the show might remember, that's okay! Giles doesn't look like how he remembers himself, either. As of Part Two of "What You Want, Not What You Need", Angel and Faith managed to bring him back to life, with some jury rigged magic and the help of Giles' great aunts. Unfortunately, thanks to his great aunts, Giles was brought back as a twelve year old boy. All in all, though, he knows this is preferable to being tortured by Eyghon for all eternity, especially since he's still completely his old self mentally. I'm bringing him in from that issue.
Personality wise, Giles is an old soul. He's lived a long time, learned a lot, and tries to use what he's learned to help others. He likes reading, research, tea, and playing the guitar. Mostly, though, he finds himself drawn to helping other people with their problems, whether it be supernatural or personal. Over the course of the show, he found himself stepping into the role of Team Dad, even if in later years he found that operating independently suited him. Whatever his size, Giles is a good listener, and a generally soft spoken, polite, and highly intellectual guy. Unless you piss him off - he wasn't called "Ripper" in his youth for nothing, and can get downright scary under sufficient provocation.
He has a mirror journal at
ripperinthedark . Pardon the lack of icons, I have to do some Photoshop work on them. Mirror!Giles is kind of a smarmy bastard. He's way more concerned with what looks like fun or what might be funny than anyone's personal feelings. In other words, he's Ripper from "Band Candy" with a bit of common sense, even if he'll usually choose to ignore it.
As far as contact information, I don't have a plurk or an AIM. But a PM to this or my personal journal will get a reply pretty quickly! So feel free to hit me up for plots. I love plots. Hopefully we can plot and have fun together. All in all, I'm happy to be here, and I'm looking forward to playing with you all!
