I prefer to think of it as enterprising.

Because I have a cold -- or maybe that's not why -- I feel like doing something creative.
To the first five people who comment: I'll look at your LJ interests list and write you something based on one or more of those interests (my choice). How's that sound?
ETA: All full!

P.S. If you haven't seen Lost in Translation, you might want to skip the comments.

Date: 2008-01-29 05:31 am (UTC)Here you go, from Season One of Heroes:
"Mr. Isaac? Mr. Isaac?"
I think my friend Hiro is crazy. Whether he saw the future and drew him in New York or not, his "friend" Mr. Isaac is never going to answer the phone. One time near the bus stop he made that same phone call and someone standing nearby said to her friend "why is he asking for Mister I Suck?" and they laughed and moved away. Sometimes I can't tell if Hiro's English is better than mine, but even I understood that one.
When he disappeared for so long, I thought he was never coming back. And then there he was, back at work, pretending nothing had happened... if you discount his whole theory on teleportation. What I'd like to do is teleport into the dressing room of some of those Las Vegas showgirls but... invisibly, so they wouldn't know we were there. Now that would be a useful superpower.
Some days I ask myself: Ando, what are you doing in America? You always wanted to visit here, and while it's true Hiro is your best friend, do you really want to follow him following Mr. Isaac all over the place? How's that going to score you social points? It isn't getting you any closer to any girls, that's a certainty.
But still, Hiro is my best friend and like it or not, I'm starting to believe him. And that frightens me more than anything I've seen him do or claim to do. The only thing that will scare me more is when Mr. Isaac really does answer the phone and talk to him.

(Trivia: the "Mister I Suck" bit was a contribution from my daughter!)
