Character: Kanon
Series:
Air GearCharacter Age: About 14-15.
Canon: Air Gear is about Air-Trecks (also known as A-Ts) which are basically super powerful motorized rollerblades, and A-Tards, the people who use these A-Ts to perform incredible aerial tricks. ... Okay, so calling them A-Tards isn't exactly canon, but that's basically exactly what A-Treckers are. They have A-T on the brain, A-T on the politics, A-T in Tuesday's Soup maybe. Basically, it's what they live and breathe-- What their lives revolve around.
Kanon is from Tool Toul To, a specialized group of mechanics for A-Ts. He's Ringo's tuner, meaning that he's in charge of Ringo's A-Ts in particular. Kanon is mostly polite and friendly enough, but there's something about him that is unsettling. He clearly has a mind of his own and his demeanor might be off-putting to some, because he does things like kidnap a chair from school because Ringo placed her ass on it. Did I mention that he's kind of obsessive and stalkerish? Ah well. Behind all that, Kanon always seems like he Knows Things. He does things people don't understand for the greater good and to make things happen, willingly playing the role of the bad guy when it is needed. This is to the extent of sacrificing the relationship he has with his most important person, Ringo.
Kanon is a music themed character, and being a tuner has a lot to do with harmony of the body. He speaks with musical markings in his speech bubbles.
Sample Post:
Ahh, the sounds of gorillas groaning, toucans singing, and zombies dragging their feet along-- it's an interesting sort of music they form, together! It's a bit different from anything I've heard, but that'll be what gives this place its uniqueness, right? My, this is an odd place Ringo asked to meet at~ ♪ I wonder why she picked this place? Never mind, if Ringo asked to meet here, I'll do whatever she says. Mmn, there's that signboard that she said to wait at. "Beware of interspecies lovin'". Yep, that's it! ... Hey, if she asked me to meet here, that'll mean that she's been here before, right? Maybe she's touched this signboard before... I wonder if I can smell her from it. ♫
Ah, what's this written behind the sign? There's a whole lot of insults written on it! Let's see...
"zombies r better!!"
"gorillas wrassle campers and maintain rulz!!"
"purple iz gay liek u"
"im not gay!!1"
♫ Gay gorillas-- so that's what those two I passed by were doing! I see~ This sign, though; is it some kind of gorillas versus zombies thing? I think this is written by only two people, though. It's cute, like two kids with a crush on each other! I wonder which side Ringo is on... Ah, hello there, Miss Zombie! Why am I hugging the sign? I just thought that maybe Ringo's touched it before... You want to write on it? Hmmm. Nice to meet you too-- oh, your hand just fell off! Sorry about that. I'll put it back for you. ♪
Someone else is here ♫ I wonder why he won't speak up.
You know, Miss Zombie, I think you're amazing. Back home people either didn't believe you existed, or didn't like talking about you. It's a pity! They should all meet you to see how amazing you are! That's a nice ribcage too; they look incomplete but still produce such a range of sounds! Ooh, you like it when I hit your ribcage like that? I'll do it again, if you want! ♫ I must say, I've never heard anything like it, even in my life as a tuner. Oh, don't tell anyone I said that, okay? It's a secret, and I trust you with it ♪ Hey, what about making music of the night together--
-- Oh, here's Mr Gorilla! I was wondering when you'd show up. I was just telling Miss Zombie how wonderful she is--
That's no way to treat a lady! Her wrist would break if you grabbed her like tha-- ah, he's just dragging her off and not listening to me anymore. How cold! But no matter ♫ I'm glad he got jealous enough to do that, it means he really likes her~ ♥ I hope they will have a nice date together after sorting out their feelings!
Meanwhile, this signboard is mine ♥
