Should we drop A Certain Masked Man?
Re: [?] A Certain Masked Man OOC
Well, it looks like people have voted to keep going, so the thread will stay open. As for writing Mirai out of the picture, I'll think about possible solutions unless anyone's got any suggestions they'd like to offer?
In the meantime do you all know what you're doing at the moment?

Re: [?] A Certain Masked Man OOC
Koyoko will be heading to his apartment after Oda releases him and gets prepared for the pick up later that night. IF anyone has an objections on this speak up or forever thank god for me :T.

Re: [?] A Certain Masked Man OOC
I’ll be posting next then. Yeah I had planned to let yoko go and leave the scene with my next post so we can do the apartment next. Regarding Mirai she’s currently running on drugs we could mention after the skip Oda falsely lead her to the hospital and is currently recovering there? I don’t know she seemed unsafe being out while high on them.
And once they wore off she lost interest? Since it was the drugs which basically motivated her and he confusion.
What do you suggest?

Re: [?] A Certain Masked Man OOC
I think that may be too easy of a reasoning and a bit too nonsensical. Considering the amount of nonsense that had been going on, I reckon we shouldn't add more onto it.
I'm personally going to lay down the idea of Anti-Skill finding its way to the apartment (since it shouldn't be forgotten that they're investigating this case as well as it was an integral plot point earlier on) and eventually barging in on the trespassing, whether during the investigation or once part of the group has left.
Namely because this can serve to break up the clique-like sheep herding a bit by ensuring the party is separated and gives characters time to think alone about the info they've gotten from the apartment, Koyoko's potential involvement with the rumours, and how they want to proceed with that knowledge (which I would've recommended as an exit point had anyone wanted to leave the thread, as well).
Going with this achieves a couple things, whether some of the characters get arrested (and later on freed) or not as that'll be player and GM prerogative:
Another reason I'm bringing this up is because, now that it's been established that we are NOT going to go through the entire day and the night time events will occur after a timeskip, most of the events I mentioned – assuming people fancy going along with those plans – can be mainly glossed over or dealt with in a mere handful of dedicated explanation posts either before or after the timeskip.
I feel it helps set the thread on a new page and pace without the previous issues, and since it can be handled by players with a bit of surveillance from yours truly, it shouldn't be much of a burden on Guy either.
I'm actually pretty thankful (mark my words, Yokkun, for these are not ones that will grace your miserable eyes often) that Koyoko is returning to the apartment because I can resume the idea I had going for Natsumi without any trouble.

Going with this achieves a couple things, whether some of the characters get arrested (and later on freed) or not as that'll be player and GM prerogative:
- Spoiler:
1) Taichi will be remembered as being a S-U-S-P-E-C-T of the investigation (because nothing so far has been done on the player side to indicate that and it's a bit late to go back on the whole thing) and will quell the protagonist syndrome I've mentioned before as being the only reason anyone will stick along in the thread.
2) Mirai can be written as having been arrested and then put under hospital surveillance due to her behaviour (as we can presume she'll have mouthed off about her violent ideas regarding her ex and just general delusions regarding what she witnessed) and the negative sides of her medicine, effectively writing her out of the thread without having to justify why she won't be returning.
3) Kita, if arrested, can mainly get by with a slap on the hand for tagging along with things she shouldn't, and can resume to going with spying on Anti-Skill a little to figure out more as originally planned. From thereon, she could find her way to the commotion any encounter with the Masked Man will cause (as it is, her sticking around just because wynaut tag with Mirai will probably leave her without any personal motivations and I know Mura tends to struggle with posting when he doesn't think characters have anything worthwhile to post).
4) Jin... is gonna Jin? I'll be honest considering Taichi and Mirai took literally all of the space in the thread at the cost of Jin literally having been forgotten in the current scene, I'm gonna have to ask Turtle to step forward a bit and potentially think about having his character stand out more in his participant role, which a breakup of the party could efficiently achieve with a bit of communication and not too much trouble.

Re: [?] A Certain Masked Man OOC
I'm okay with Anti Skill intervention if that's the road people want to go down. It depends on how complicated people want to make their characters' lives. If we're streamlining things it might be simpler to go with Alex's suggestion.
I was going to suggest keeping her around for a while longer and writing her out following the encounter with the Masked Man. My rationale being that we can have her come to her senses a little and realise what she's getting into after seeing him (and possibly other Dark Side elements) first hand.

Re: [?] A Certain Masked Man OOC
Shit post out, again Oda was going to storm off, and he did here. Erm regarding the direction, I think that Oda being a suspect should always remain a factor until he can prove his innocence. So having Anti-skill as a thorn is a good idea.
But regarding Mirai, I do have to side with Guy on this that meeting the Masked Man will bring her to the girl's senses. Probably a good way to write her out, but of course she would need a NPCer.

Re: [?] A Certain Masked Man OOC
Originally the plan was to have you guys go through the apartment and look round for clues etc but given the feedback I've received, I thought it best to give you the relevant info up front. Hopefully, it doesn't feel too abrupt.
As ever, feel free to contact me with any problems or queries.

Re: [?] A Certain Masked Man OOC
Sure, just need to get an understanding on what happened between A and B. Did Kita follow, what happened to Mirai? Or should I write this assuming I came on my own?

Re: [?] A Certain Masked Man OOC
I'll be honest, been unsure how to write this post other than just reacting so I just did that and made vague mentions of another person in the room. Though not sure about the timestamp, so Guy do you have one in mind?

Re: [?] A Certain Masked Man OOC
In this case not particularly.I was going to place it as relatively late at night (around 9-10) but thought it best to leave it blank since I wasn't sure how long your characters had spent in your other scenes or whether they'd head straight to the apartment or take their time.
Also, your comment made me realise I had to correct the time stamp for the warehouse meeting. It's taking place at 23:00, not 11:00.

Re: [?] A Certain Masked Man OOC
Your next move should probably be setting out to the drop point. My next post will introduce the timeskip.
In the meantime, I'll set the apartment scene timestamp to earlier on in the day. My next post will also have some more for you guys to deal with as well.
This means we'll be running two scenes at two different times of the day. Don't let it confuse you. I just wanted to give you all forewarning this time.

Re: [?] A Certain Masked Man OOC
I'm not too much of a stickler for posting orders, but I just want to make sure I'm not cutting anyone off with my next post, so Slrarthryng and Mura, are either of you planning on posting soon or should I go ahead and make my post?
Re: [?] A Certain Masked Man OOC
Apologies, after the weekend I realized I had quite a bit of work to catch up on. However, I will have time to post later on today after I get things sorted out.

Sorry, I've been in a rather heavy writing funk lately. Go ahead and skip me and I'll try to write myself back in when I get over myself.

Sorry for being a little later than promised with the post, I had to catch up on quite a bit of work before I could turn my attention to the thread. But, I'm all set for now and I don't see anything short term that should change that.

Re: [?] A Certain Masked Man OOC
A reminder that there are now two scenes running concurrently. They will meet back up shortly do don't worry about missing out on the action.
Daytime scene: Oda, Kita, Jin (?), Tessou Tsuzuri (NPC) , Yomikawa Aiho (NPC)
Nighttime scene: Koyoko, Mugino, Natsumi

Re: [?] A Certain Masked Man OOC
Koyoko just picked up the package, I'm not sure where he's being intercepted, but I didn't want to do more just in case other things were planned. I don't know when, Natsumi, Mugino, or Masked man will intercept him for the time being, so I'm leaving the post there for now.

Re: [?] A Certain Masked Man OOC
Well, I know Natsumi has said she'll hold off for now. I'm happy for Mugino to intercept him close to the delivery point, assuming Iva's up for initiating. If not then I can have our friendly neighbourhood serial killer drop in first.
Re: [?] A Certain Masked Man OOC
Lemme think about it a bit.
I'd actually love to intercept him on the way, but then againmaking shit even worse for "saving" him sounds good for me, as well.
Edit: After talking with Guy himself, I shall go next. My post might delay a bit, though, given I was quite busy today and will most likely be tomorrow as well.

Re: [?] A Certain Masked Man OOC
I'd imagine my turn will come after all the night crew and turtle maybe? Let us know turtle.
