I have a Yahoo email account that is 13 years old. It's my "ordering email"; I use it only for ordering things online, so that if a company sells it to spammers, it doesn't affect my personal email that I use for communicating with friends.
I had to get into it today and noticed an email with the subject "YOUR SINCERE RESPONSE IS NEEDED". Ah, yes, I thought, a Nigerian prince needs me to assist him in transferring money. Then I glanced over at the sender's name, and it was Shiro Nakamura.
So now I'm imagining fan fiction in which Hiro travels to a parallel universe (this one?) and discovers that his counterpart here, Shiro, the only son of Taito Nakamura, rejected his father's attempts to involve him in business, used his honest baby face to help him con people, and now makes a living suckering money with online scams. Shiro, of course, is intrigued to learn he may have the capability to travel through time and space, like his inter-universal twin. Hiro is then faced with the dilemma of whether he should show Shiro the methods by which he trained himself to do this: can he influence Shiro to turn away from his life of crime, or will Shiro turn into a complete monster once he has a way to escape any police force?
In order for readers to tell them apart, Shiro would have a goatee.
