Hi. ^_^

Out of curiousity - if Aoshi had a modern career, what would it be?

He's very quiet, so I'd guess something like, oh, an office clerk? Heh, I bet he's work in Insurance and sit in a cube farm!

maybe a secret agent or a spy for the CIA, or maybe that's just wishful thinking...he could be a clerk... i could see that

Some of the most common I've seen are:

+ Student

+ Artist

+ Writer

I'm doing one with Aoshi as a doctor. I always think of Aoshi as so strictly Meiji that he just doesn't seem to fit in the modern world for me most of the time.

Hmmm...what would Aoshi be???

That's a good question...maybe he would be, of course a student first because he has to go to school...

Maybe he would still be living with his parents. lol. I'm joking, of course.

I can't really see Aoshi being an artist because I don't think his character tends to go that way. Well you could say he was an artist with his kodachis (or however you spell them).

I can see him as a business man, a professor of english, literature, languages, and history. Another job is a CIA or FBI, something like that.

Maybe he would be hot as like a sea captain on a cruise line. lol. Hey, that would be an intresting fic. Somone could write about it, I'm not good with AM. Aoshi is hard to write for me.

Aoshi...Cruise ship...::plot bunnies start multiplying in her mind:: that's kind of a cool idea, have to play with that one for a while...kicking around another idea where he'd be a driven busnessman trying to fill his father's shoes...kind of like when he took over as Okashira, I guess, though I know he didn't take it from his father. I just like to keep simular ideas/feelings like from the show in modern fics...in my other modern fic he had a small part as a police investigator...

Aoshi never stuck me to be a random man, so whatever his job would be, it has to be set and follow a schedule. It also would probably involve him talking as little as he could afford. Instead of just being a teacher or business man, I see him doing simple jobs as well, not neccessairily something that holds a great amount of responsibility. For example; lawncare, since that is a solitary job and may commercial businesses do want to look nice. However, I find a problem with these sometimes because Aoshi seems rather prideful as well, and his character may flounder as a result of such an occupation. I can see him as a doctor because he would have the focus to work that hard, and doctors spend little time actually WITH the patients. Mostly the nurses do the interaction and etc. Perhaps a pilot? That requires study, you don't have to interact with many people and he would have a schedule. I don't see him working for a commercial air line...Air Force One perhaps, or something that allows his pride to fit into the picture.

Yes, that's true. But I can still see him as a cruise line captain or a carpenter...ahh, flex those muscles, Aoshi! lol. JK!

Yeah, Aoshi + Cruise Ship = SEXY. I totally agree that he would not be very social, especially as a student. In my mind, however, I always imagined Aoshi to be...filthy rich. I dunno why, but it just seems to match his regal sort of appearance. However, he would NOT be a celebrity figure. I'd say:

Captain of a Cruise Ship (this is just so appealing to me!)

Pilot of some type (yeah, this would definitely fit him)

Rich, stoic, and silent business dude (this would be typical aoshi)

Athlete (yes, plus, he's hotter that way)

yeah...gawd, he is frickin hot...*drools* and...even more romantic: Aoshi as the captain of a Pirate Ship. HOT!!!

As for Misao, I think she fits PERFECTLY in modern times. However, I always see her as a student. But, if she had a job, she'd either be:

A peppy clerk (YES!)

An artist (I dunno why, but it seems to work)

A writer (???)

An athlete of some type (where else would that energy go?)

Yeah...I totally love this couple...you know, Aoshi on a cruise ship...not THAT's got me thinking...

omg, I just thought of Aoshi as a Gardner. Now THAT works. A nature loving guy...*sighs* ^_^

That would be so cool if some one wrote about Aoshi as a cruise ship captain. I would probably never write about it, but anyone else could!!! I would love to read a story about that since I will probably never have the time to write about it.

As for Misao's jobs:

A teacher for kids

A marine biologist

A lawyer (a very loud one)

An actress

Adversiting person

Hm, I LOVE the idea of Misao as a loud-mouthed Lawyer! I think that fits her PERFECTLY.
#13 Dec 31st 2005, 12:20pm

Maybe someone could do a story about Misao being an overstressed, loud mouth lawyer at the top of her game, but then suddenly, since she becomes so stressed, she kind of get mad at a client and the person ends up firing her sevices. Her boss, Saitou, demands that she takes a sabatical (or however you spell it) and arranges for her to go on a cruise line where Aoshi is none other than the captain. That would be kind of fun, maybe...if anyone likes that idea, or that gives anyone an idea, you can use it. Again, I will probably never get around to writing a story like this.

i've seem misao as a lawyer in several stories and it really does work. i personally like her as a lawyer--even though i'm doing a story of her as a criminal... she's very stubborn and witty not to mention LOUD, so lawyer could be it. i've seen her as a writer too, but that never seemed to work out for me. i can see aoshi as a writer, because he's the intellectual type. (that is so spell wrong)i can't exactally see him working at a airport. maybe at an antique book store! i usually see aoshi as an agent working for the government. maybe it's because he's a ninja... i don't know. but i can see him as a captain of a ship. in the uniform at least. ^_^ *_*X_X

I love that idea, Espiritus. Misao: Lawyer; Aoshi: Cruise Ship Captain

Seriously, someone really SHOULD give it a shot.

I might...*trys to make plot bunnies multiply like WhiteRabbit5's...* The problem: I know NOTHING about law (ironic, since I'm seriously considering a major in it, just not in criminal justice). Other problem: I also know NOTHING about cruise ships - I've never been on one, nor have I been exposed to the captain of one... information, please, anyone?

Or I could totally BS it, but then it would be...BS.

Espiritus
To the idea I had...well I no seriously nothing about cruise ships or law. That and you really don't have to know anything about law since she will be on a vacation, and to the cruise line, I would just use what I know from movies. I kind of started it (like two paragraphs, but I know I will never finish with it so its still up for graps...maybe you and I could coe author it, lol). But yeah, I would really like to see that done, I think it would be very cute.
#17 Jan 02nd 2006, 1:14pm
Dustii
Really? You started it? I'm really interested in what it's like! Could you send it to me or something? This story is indeed very cute. And romantic. I'd start my own, but the thing with me is that I'm actually really good at writing CONTINUATIONS to stories, but suck like hell in getting the first few chapters out. hehehehe...
#18 Jan 03rd 2006, 7:36pm
Espiritus
I only have just a few paragraphs, but hell, I could get things heated up, per se, and you could continue it if you would like to. I have trouble actually finishing stories because I end up losing my muse or it gets to complicated or I start hating it, lol. So I could probably send you a little something once I have more down for it. E-mail me if you can at von0928@gmail.com, only if you have the time.

If this is something you really want to do and all...

I'd actually be very interested, but I am totally OUT OF TIME. Calc is getting really hairy this quarter, so is physics. X_X;;

but yeah, if I ever have the time, I would really love to take a look at it...

I...have a vision...

AOSHI: Stoic businessman, well-to-do investor

MISAO: Peppy flight attendant

Add one flight from NYC to Tokyo, blend gently, and bake on high for a week.

Wonder what would emerge from that...

hi, hmm aoshi business man, misao a flight attendant, has anyone wrote such fic already sounds somewhat familier, mm i wonder. anyways its not a bad idea.

^_^ As a matter of fact, that plot bunny attacked, and I HAD to write that fic. So there is at least one fic out there with that premise. Because those plot bunnies are NASTY buggers. x_x

To be perfectly honest, when I hear "Aoshi" + "AU" I immediately think of him as a doctor. I don't know why, I just do.

If we were to follow the storyline for Aoshi in the manga, he would probably be a ruthless criminal lawyer then revert to being a poet maybe.
