The first strings we start with will probably create a lot of tension (I like that they're called strings and they do that, and you use them to exert 'pull' on people. Very clever.) so it isn't just 'who do I know?' or 'who do I want to have that power over me?'<br/><br/>Past a certain point, it's 'how can I make this mix more explosively fun and chaotic?' ;)<br/><br/>I'm considering taking my 'seen swimming' string on Nicolette. But of course, a string should have more pull than just 'seeing' someone...Another weak point in the Selkie sheet, I think...Consider the other strings we're bandying around, and what a string does...Lets you unduly influence someone, gives you some hold over them.<br/><br/>Mel, would it be off the charts for her to have seen Nicolette swimming back from either (1) taking on some aquatic monster, or (2) having chased some non-aquatic bogeyman into the sea?<br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Morgan's current String List</div><div class="spoiler_body"><ul class="bbc_list"><li>1 string on Ryder (lacks subtlety) - (Suggestion: Morgan asked Ryder something about her problems with her father (because Morgan Just Doesn't Get It) which went off so well that Ryder very nearly slugged her in public.)</li><li>1 string on Percy (Everyone loves Percy, at least Percy thinks so.) - (Hmmmmm, need to think about that one.)</li><li>1 string on Nicolette - Saw her swimming back from making some sort of aquatic kill.</li></ul></div></div><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Other people who have Strings on Morgan</div><div class="spoiler_body"><ul class="bbc_list"><li>Percy has 2 strings on Morgan (Percy has captured someone's fancy) - Morgan is infatuated with Percy...and he knows it (else it's no real string to dangle her by).</li><li>Ryder has 2 strings on Morgan (Ryder has Morgan's Skin) - Hmmmmm, how did THAT happen?
