Homeko is the OS-tan that represents Windows XP Home Edition. She has green hair that she wears in a short ponytail, and accessorizes with two large XP-shaped hairclips that cover her ears. She is the closest sister of [[XP-tan|Saseko]] and [[Homeo]]. | |||

Homeko may have initially started as an all encompassing XP-tan similar to [[XP-tan]]'s creation.

Homeko is most frequently depicted as an extremely home-bodied artist who frequently creates yaoi doujinshi to sell at conventions. She is very open about her perverted interests.

===Homeo Saga=== | |||
She is characterized as a ''fujoshi'' and yaoi doujinshi artist who has an unhealthy fascination with her gender-confused brother Homeo. She is the female lead in the [[Homeo Saga]], providing a role as Homeo's muse and tormentor. Quite possibly the most perverted character in the saga (besides [[Norton Antivirus|Dr. Norton]]), she is obsessed with yaoi fantasies. She uses her brother's gender confusion to generate situations for her doujin works. While they carry a strong bond, it is one of dominance over her brother. Their vagaries often result in some quite zany, if not outright ecchi, situations. In recent years, Homeko and Homeo have become some of the more popular characters in Nijiura's comics. | |||
==Trivia== | |||
It is believed her being a ''fujoshi'' is a play on her name's pronunciation. "Home" being similar to "homo" (a slang term for "homosexual"), this led people to making her a ''fujoshi'' and obsessed with yaoi. | |||

Homeko is the OS-tan that represents Windows XP Home Edition. She has green hair that she wears in a short ponytail, and accessorizes with two large XP-shaped hairclips that cover her ears. She is the closest sister of Saseko and Homeo.
Creation
Homeko may have initially started as an all encompassing XP-tan similar to XP-tan's creation. Evidence for this is suggested in some drawing of her winged outfit on a character with brown hair and blue eyes (especially in art by Kusaka Kokage), however this initially design may have been copied and warped over time into a green hair variant by other artists and into the Homeko we know today. This theory however requires further research.
Design
Universally Homeko almost always has neck-shoulder length green hair put up into a ponytail. The sides of her head will often have large hair clips spelling out "XP" and covering her ears. She is also known to wear glasses.
She tends to have a similar physical build to XP-tan, with large breasts and attractive facial features, this helps remind viewers that the two are related.
Her clothing tends to be variants of two different outfits, a wing suit and a green track suit.
Wing Suit
Some evidence suggests this may have been her original outfit, but in more modern art this outfit tends to not be as popular as her track suit. It typically features a white torso with a collar and tie, long colored sleeves ending in large cuffs, and a built in skirt. Floating nearby this outfit's back is sometimes "wings" of some sort, typically these look mechanical in nature and have a sci-fi feel to them. Some variants of this outfit are consistent enough that they may qualify as a separate character, if not for some art depicting Homeko with both outfits.
Track Suit
By far the most common and popular of Homeko's outfits, is a green track jacket, and matching green sweat pants featuring either white or yellow accent colors. This outfit may have spawned out of her more homely mindset in her drawings, where she is typically a stay at home artist. This outfit is ideally more comfortable and a better reflection of her more lazy personality. That said some variants of this outfit make her look far less lazy and give her a more professionally focused working at home kind of vibe.
Personality
Homeko is most frequently depicted as an extremely home-bodied artist who frequently creates yaoi doujinshi to sell at conventions. She is very open about her perverted interests. She tends to be a nuisance to others that end up having to take care of her and she will often bully or "borrow" from them. She is very smug in most situations. Some may fit her character into a girl-failure archetype.
Depictions
Homeo Saga
She is characterized as a fujoshi and yaoi doujinshi artist who has an unhealthy fascination with her gender-confused brother Homeo. She is the female lead in the Homeo Saga, providing a role as Homeo's muse and tormentor. Quite possibly the most perverted character in the saga (besides Dr. Norton), she is obsessed with yaoi fantasies. She uses her brother's gender confusion to generate situations for her doujin works. While they carry a strong bond, it is one of dominance over her brother. Their vagaries often result in some quite zany, if not outright ecchi, situations. In recent years, Homeko and Homeo have become some of the more popular characters in Nijiura's comics.
Trivia
It is believed her being a fujoshi is a play on her name's pronunciation. "Home" being similar to "homo" (a slang term for "homosexual"), this led people to making her a fujoshi and obsessed with yaoi.
