I think rinalin put it wonderfully, although I guess the way you choose to write someone with that characteristic can be subjective too. The thing I like with writing is that you can be "in character" but still have your own unique style. I mean, no one is going to go, "wow, I love this person's Arashi. I am only ever going to read their fic for the rest of my life." I suppose what I'm saying is, don't stress out about it? lol, most useless advice ever.
I think my conception of Nino veers off from most people's. You have the sharpness and the joking and sometimes being an insensitive jerk (although I always like to think that he means well), but I find that I tend to write him a bit paranoid. Because Nino is one of those people who seems to notice each and every little thing, and store it in his mind for later. In RL he doesn't seem really paranoid at all though... ha ha. (M-maybe I have been writing OOC all this time and no one told me?? D: D: D:) Also I tend to write him swearing a lot. The only other member I'd write swearing would be Jun, and only if angry.
Well okay so I realize I am typing too much, but I just wanted to encourage you to keep at it! Who is an expert at real person characterization, anyway, except the actual person himself. What you should do! Watch Arashi clips for hours until you get a good feel for their personalities!! And if it doesn't work, hey, you've just watched Arashi clips for hours, that is PRETTY OKAY BY ME. :) Good luck!
