3	Yo. I'm [[MegaManZX Giro]], [[OnlyKnownByTheirNickname also known as]] CB, Zumi, [[MegaManBattleNetwork Roll Soul]], and [[CodeLyoko Megatank]]. If you think you've seen me around before, you may be right: I've been online since AOL was new and interesting. Most of this time, at least since 2003, has been spent at [[http://cbizumi.deviantart.com DeviantArt]]. I also spend a fair amount of time these days in the LivejournalRoleplay scene, usually playing at DearMun and InkCity; I'm even a moderator at that last one. I used to be around DramaDramaDuck, but have since [[LongBusTrip left the community]], for now.

5	As far as interests go, I'm ''always'' seen with a sketchpad or [[{{Bookworm}} a book]] in hand. I watch a lot of animation, including anime, and music-wise will listen to anything under the sun (but with particular leanings towards hard rock and classical). I play an ''ungodly'' amount of video games, with MegaMan chief among them (if the nicknames list didn't give that away).

7	Expect this page to get pretty long. Given my SuperOCD (see below) I'll probably be adding things until the end of time.

9	----
10	[[folder:Personal Tropes]]
11	* {{Acrofatic}}: [[NoodleIncident As a coworker can attest to]], I am a ''lot'' faster than I look.
12	* AdjustingYourGlasses: Type 2.
13	* [[AirGuitar Air Violin]]: A "bad" habit, especially when listening to Vivaldi, ''Eine Kleine Nachtmusik'', or anything by the VitaminStringQuartet. "Air conducting" is also an issue, particularly with ''Les Toréadors'' from Carmen, or Smetana's ''The Moldau''.
14	* AlmightyJanitor: Well, more like [[AlmightyJanitor Almighty Sales Associate]] since I work in retail, but close enough. I've been at my job, in an entry-level position, long enough that even the managers will seek me out for all kinds of information.
15	** Now inverted! I've been promoted up a single level to Sales Supervisor. Still this trope some, though, since supervisors only have a slight bit more they're able to do than the normal associate, and aren't much when compared to those with actual manager titles.
16	* ApologizesALot
17	* AsideGlance: A regular practitioner.
18	* AttentionDeficitOohShiny
19	* BagOfHolding: My varied messenger bags and satchels are legendary for this. For example, my ''smallest'' bag contains: assorted candies thrown in over time, requisite spare change, a paperback book, a 15 ft. tape measure, a pack of crackers, a shoelace, three pencils, a Megaman TCG card, bus passes from April 2010, a roll of packing tape, mailing labels, scissors, a bubble envelope, and my keys (which are on a lanyard and in and of themselves are seven keys, five keychains, and a small adjustable wrench). I can also fit my wallet, cellphone, and mp3 player in other pockets. This in a bag barely bigger than two VHS tapes ([[OrIsIt or is it]]?).
20	* BlindWithoutEm: The lenses of my glasses are thick enough that cutting them came with extra cost last time I updated my prescription.
21	* {{Bookworm}}
22	* BriefAccentImitation: Excessive exposure to DragonQuestVIII, either by my own play or a LetsPlay I regularly watch will give me a butchered English accent that likes to stick despite best efforts. The funny thing is that this will also seep its way into my typing in the form of a mild FunetikAksent mixed with slang. Whether by speech or by text, the accent tends toward the Cockney side.
23	* BrokenBird: Bringing up the reason for this is also a bit of a BerserkButton.
24	* CatchPhrase: Two: "Some things never change" and "Awesomesauce."
25	* CoughSnarkCough: Regular practitioner, both online and in real life.
26	* CrowningMomentOfAwesome: Catching a ball randomly bouncing around the room. [[http://cbizumi.deviantart.com/art/Crowning-Moment-of-Awesome-165907503 Comic-ized, as seen here]].
27	* CrazyPrepared: See BagOfHolding.
28	* CreatureOfHabit: And how.
29	* DarkAndTroubledPast
30	* DeerInTheHeadlights: As I tend to utterly shut down in the face of danger or panic.
31	* DoesNotLikeShoes
32	* DontYouDarePityMe
33	* DoubleConsciousness
34	* EverythingsBetterWithPlushies: I have an ungodly amount of them.
35	* ExpressiveMask: One version of my online self has one.
36	* FingerlessGloves: The knit kind is a regular accessory during colder months (read: any season but summer), since I hate the closed in feeling of normal gloves.
37	* FleetingPassionateHobbies: This is bad enough that friends have been known to ask "So, this is the phase of the week then?"
38	* ForgetsToEat
39	* {{Geek}}
40	* HairTriggerTemper: Partly because I take way too much way too personally.
41	* HatesBeingTouched
42	* HeadphonesEqualIsolation
43	* IconicItem: I'm always, ''always'' wearing a hat of [[NiceHat some kind]] when out in public.
44	* IntelligenceEqualsIsolation: I tended to make better friends with my teachers growing up rather than my peers.
45	* JadeColoredGlasses
46	* KindHeartedCatLover
47	* {{Kuudere}}
48	* LaserGuidedAmnesia: I lost a good portion of my elementary school years after cracking my head (not literally, thankfully) on the gym floor in the 4th grade. I was out of it for days after this event, meshed whole ''days'' together as back-to-back incidents, and generally had a hell of a time. Possibly related, my memory hasn't been the same since.
49	* LimitedWardrobe: Both played straight and averted. Though I generally follow the same "hat, T-shirt, jeans, sneakers" theme, the actual pieces will vary greatly.
50	* LongRunners: An RP universe I started with a friend has been going on continuously since 200''5''. Reading the IM logs tends to cause ArchivePanic.
51	** Another has been going on since 2007, and is only just ''now'' coming into the final act (for the main storyline at least).
52	* MachineEmpathy: Experienced with my computer, but also [[TheAllegedCar the car]] and the {{Playstation 2}}.
53	* MrExposition
54	* MrFixit
55	* NiceHat: At least four:
56	** A white one with pointed ears, to which I've affixed buttons proclaiming various fandoms. Actually an {{Inuyasha}} hat, bearing the logo on the back.
57	** One that looks like [[FullmetalAlchemist Alphonse's]] helmet with the {{Facefault}} face. This one's a little tight, so I don't wear it much.
58	** A three-pronged jester's hat-type beanie, with a section each colored checkerboard, red, and black.
59	** A more traditional jester's hat with multiple prongs ending in bells, and haphazardly colored with the primary colors. Part of a Halloween costume, though I wore it once to be identified in a busy airport.
60	** Besides these four hats, I also tend to favor black cadet-style hats and bandannas of various colors.
61	* NoIndoorVoice when actually speaking, TheQuietOne otherwise.
62	* NotAMorningPerson: By a ''long'' shot.
63	* NoSenseOfDirection: Not quite up to [[RanmaOneHalf Ryoga]] levels yet, but still pretty bad.
64	* OlderThanTheyLook: Apparently.
65	* OnlySixFaces: My art suffers from this, despite efforts against it.
66	* PaleSkinnedBrunette: Though my hair started out blond, it's darkened over the years. Additionally my skin actually reflects light. It's almost like having [[BeyondTheImpossible white shadows]] when against the right surface.
67	* PosterGalleryBedroom
68	* RidiculousProcrastinator: Of course, with me being the way I am, I literally plan this down to the minute. As in, "Task A takes me 10 minutes to complete, so I can continue with Task B until I have 10 minutes left. [[TVTropesWillRuinYourLife continues reading TV Tropes]]"
69	* ScarsAreForever
70	* SelfDeprecation: Occasionally borders on HeroicSelfDeprecation, depending on my mood.
71	* SesquipedalianLoquaciousness: Particularly when I haven't slept, oddly enough.
72	* SirSwearsalot
73	* {{Sleepyhead}}
74	* TheStoic
75	** StoicWoobie
76	* StoicSpectacles
77	* StoutStrength
78	* SuperOCD: I'm not exactly {{Monk}} but it does crop up quite a lot; CreatureOfHabit plays into this most often. This is to the point where I even have a LongList of my various habits, quirks, rituals, and preferences. The last thing on the list? "[[LampshadeHanging Making lists]]."
79	* TalksLikeASimile: Unfortunately comes right along with {{Metaphorgotten}} and its various overlaps.
80	* TheQuietOne: Which leads to a few BewareTheQuietOnes moments, thanks to my temper.
81	* TheUnpronounceable: My real first name, apparently. About 1 person in 15 will actually know how to say it.
82	* TrademarkFavoriteFood: Pizza in all shapes, sizes, and toppings, even including "[[YourMileageMayVary hated]]" ones such as anchovies and pineapple (though not together... yet). Also [[SweetTooth lollipops]], to the point of owning a Tootsie Pop-branded T-shirt that reads "[[GettingCrapPastTheRadar It's Not Going to Lick Itself]]" under a picture of two of the said lollipops.
83	* TroperTales: Regular reader, occasional contributor.
84	* UnusualEuphemism: The occasional "Holy snakes" stol-- eh, affectionately borrowed from the MegamanNTWarrior manga.
85	* VerbalTic: Beginning sentences with the word "Well", though I've been trying not to after recognizing this. Also, switching subject changes mid-sentence with the word "also." And the word "and" (occasionally even both!).
86	* YourOtherLeft: Surprisingly, and embarrassingly, common.
87	* {{Zipperiffic}}, TooManyBelts, and ChainedByFashion: Shows up in my art. [[{{Understatement}} A lot.]]
