'cause they know and so do I

If you have any issues about how I play Masamori, you are encouraged to raise them with me here. Of course, I very much welcome use of examples with your problem, so I can have a better idea of what to fix. If you have questions about why Masamori did something or why he did so in the way he did, those are also encouraged.

I want to be the best player I can, and to do right by both the character and all of you.

Anonymous commenting is on. As for the IP address issue, in spite of playing hackers, I have absolutely no idea of what to do with them, so you're quite safe.

If you feel the need to contact me privately, the best way is probably by e-mailing agreylady@gmail.com. You can also talk to me at my rl journal, paperback, or look for the elusive Elspeth Vimes on AIM.

20 things about Masamori

OOC

backtagging: You are never too late for me.

threadjacking: I'm pretty much always open to it, though of course it also depends on the other mun(s) involved. If it's a network post you have my blanket go ahead, for logs I'd prefer to be asked first (but unless it's a super secret conversation happening in a locked room you're probably okay).

fourth-walling: I'd prefer Masamori not be fourth-walled. (Incidentally, his pop culture knowledge is very vague, there's no risk of him pulling this on anyone.)

sensitive subjects: I'm open to the mention of just about anything, as long as it's warned for so other players know. What I'm willing to play is more circumstance dependent, but pretty much the same deal.


IC

physical contact: Masamori is not one to initiate contact unless there are unusual circumstances, but he'll take contact from others in stride. If you're completely surprising him he may react violently, but otherwise he'll just go along.

psychic abilities: Masamori canonically blocks telepaths and mind control, but as those telepaths work in specific ways it's possible for others or others with psychic powers to get around that. Talk to me first and we'll figure it out.

fighting & injury: No problem, I'd just want to hash out how things will go first (especially as Masamori is a stupidly powerful shonen manga character).

death: I'm open to it for plot purposes, but I would need very good reasons.

I know people have had odd objects turn up for them recently- but has anyone had something else appear? Like a mark.

I have to say, the snowball fights have been impressive.

We're moving to take back headquarters tomorrow night.

I'll be out of contact for a little while, but it shouldn't be more than a few days. We have good intelligence and support.

I'll talk to you soon.

[Oh look, it's the same kind of room you always see Masamori in. By which I mean, a traditional Japanese room. Right now the view is just of the floor and wall. You can hear a door slide open and closed, and Masamori walks into view on the far right side of the picture. He's dressed in his normal style, today a grey kimono and a bright red scarf, and has a preoccupied expression. There are hints of circles beneath his eyes, which stand out a bit more since he's a bit paler than usual. As he walks towards the camera, he loosens the scarf, revealing a ring of x-shaped scars around his neck.

They look rather fresh.

He sits down, still off to the right of the frame but close now, and picks up a small stack of papers. There's a little over a minute of him reading before the video shuts off.]

I'm going to be heading into the mountains for a day or two. I won't have cell phone reception, so please don't worry if you can't reach me. I'll be back soon.

Brainwashing, now. Of course I thought someone in the organization was involved, but for them to have had someone in the prosecution office capable of making one of us into a scapegoat...this is bigger than I thought.

At least Tokine-chan and the others are alright. I should give Hatori a day or two off.

We'll need to keep an eye on the prosecution office. Even with that Yashiro dead, there might be some movement there before it's all cleaned up.
