Chapter 1: Explanation time
My name is Miguel Ortiz. I'm 19, a college student and I'm one of those guys who spends a lot of time on the internet. When it comes to classes I'm always on my computer. Typing my notes, looking up what the teacher needs me to look up, even though 50% of my classes are in a classroom. But the fun doesn't stop when the last class is over, after I'm done with all my work and school I run 4 simultaneous tumblrs; each one of them a different blog of my Original Characters or OC's. I belong to many fandoms however my OC's are from 2 different fandoms, Homestuck and My Little Pony. There's actually a bit of a background to my OC's, and it's that they each have a different part of who I am.
My Fantroll Contra deNerdist represents my addiction to many different fandoms, whether it be Homestuck, MLP, Doctor Who, Anime, etc. and he's a bit more social than I am in real life.
My fan-human Alejandro Ortiz is a more suave version of me. However he does have much of a competitive side when it comes to fighting games. He's like me because of that.
My Fan-Pony Hackalot Spark is the Tech wizard part of me. He's knowledgeable about gadgets, game consoles, and he's more into other types of video games, whereas Alejandro is more focused on the Fighting Genre.
These OC's are the 3 parts that make up 99% of my entire personality. I love them, I love to roleplay as them, and I love to talk about them...but sometimes I wonder what it would be to actually meet them...like in real life. That would be brilliant.
Chapter 2: The Freak Accident
It was late afternoon, I think around 7pm. I was just walking back to my 2 bedroom apartment to chill out and screw around on tumblr. On the way there I talked with one of my classmates about how well our Basketball team did last night against Murray State, and how we were on national television on ESPNU. Both of us headed our separate ways and I made it to the front door of my apartment. I got my keys, went in, and sat my stuff down on my couch. I was supposed to have a reading assignment, but let's face it, who really reads reading assignments anyway?
I decided to get on my computer and log on to my 4 tumblr accounts hack-is-back, scorpiowned, ragindemonoid, and my personal blog miguelaowned. I began to roleplay heavily on all of my OC's blogs when I heard from my weather radio that we were about to go under a severe thunderstorm warning until midnight tonight. Thank God I was in my apartment before the rain started. Just before I could let out a sigh of relief, a bolt of lightning hit my house and struck my computer, blowing me backwards so far I hit my bedroom door which was about 5 feet from my computer. I was knocked out for a short period of time, however as I was regaining consciousness I could hear voices...almost similar to mine.
Chapter 3: The OC's Speak!
"You think he's dead?" said one voice, "Nah, he's just knocked out, he looks like he got bodied to death" said another, "I think he's coming to" said another voice. I woke up to find that my OC's have come to life! All 3 of my personal characters came to life in the freak accident! My emotions were mixed, I didn't know what to do or how to react. All I knew was the different parts of my whole personality were standing right in front of me as characters I had made for accounts on tumblr.
"You look like you don't recognize us" said Contra. "Do you know who we are? Or do you need an ultra combo finish to make you remember?" said Alejandro. "Alejandro you can be a real dick at times you know that?" said Hackalot. All three of my OC's were arguing and for some odd reason I felt like I had to break it up. "Guys! Guys! GUYS!" I screamed, "What in the hell is going on here? Why are my original creations standing right in front of me?" I said. "Well dude, that lighting bolt that hit your computer caused a short circuit in the computer's brain, while that was happening you were derping around on tumblr and that is how we're now in front of you." Hackalot explained.
"But...this is insane. I've got college stuff to deal with! Tests, parties, sporting events, etc. I can't be hanging out with my OC's! I usually roleplay as you guys! Now you're right in front of me! How are all my friends supposed to...?" as I was trying to finish the question there was a knock at my door. "Hey Miguel! Dude there's going to be a sick party at the engineering frat house! You coming?" I had to think of something to get rid of the unexpected invite. "Sorry man I got some reading to do." I said trying to get rid of the dude at my door.
Then it got quiet, then suddenly I heard the door open and it was my friend Nick. "Shit I'm exposed" I thought to myself. "Reading assignments? Really dude who really...?" As he was trying to finish his question he nooticed my OC's next to me. "Uh dude...who are the cartoon characters?" Nick asked. I sighed knowing that the jig was up, "These are my characters...these are parts of me that represent different parts of my personality. Hackalot's the tech part,", "Sup" said Hackalot, "Contra is the fandom part,", "Hey there" said Contra, "and Alejandro is the romantic/ fighting games part.", "Don't forget it" said Alejandro.
"Well I was just about to invite you to a kick-ass party but since you got some issues with these weird-ass characters I guess I'll come back later" said Nick as he was walking out the door. "Yeah! You do that! See you in class tomorrow!" I said embarrassed. I knew that things that you put on the internet would follow you for the rest of your life...I didn't think the stuff you made on the internet would come to life.
