Glad to hear you're feeling better. :P<br/><br/>Your post is fine, by the way. The OOC bit, I mean. I wasn't particularly looking to do anything explicit, and the whole point of these interactions was for various temptations to be posited towards both Yoshi and Shiori. Their refusals have done much to explore their characters.<br/><br/><div class="quoteheader"><div class="topslice_quote">Quote</div></div><blockquote class="bbc_standard_quote">Shiori is willing to have sex, however. Especially if it serves a purpose. I think turning the tables on some potential abusers would be a really neat encounter, not just because of the sexiness, but because it would be a real chance for Shiori to see a "beneficial" use for her power. It might open the door to have her start looking at her power as a tool, instead of as a burden. But those she truly cares about she's most inclined to stay away from, for what she believes is their own good. That said, if she's hurt, exhausted, or otherwise in need, her desires can override her better sense. It might not stop her from indulging in an emotional moment of love-making, but it would be enough to probably prevent much of a relationship coming out of it.</blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/>For this RP, this situation might be ideal... if not also very tragic. :P They can share a moment of intimacy, but both come to the conclusion that a relationship is a possibility that is best not explored. At least during this campaign. If I continue to GM for these characters- well, anything goes.<br/><br/>A lot of the NPCs represent a good deal of how a ninja might practically approach sex. As Vex mentioned, I imagine there's quite a few Kunoichi who would gladly take back home a baby from someone with a powerful bloodline. In the past, Hyuuga and Uchiha parents probably had to warn their sons about getting too 'careless...'<br/><br/>If Sarada appears in this game, maybe as an escort to the Fire Daimyo/Hokage.. then I had in mind she'd be very much a parallel to Itachi, complete with poking Yoshi on the forehead. She might even be ANBU. The big difference, of course, was that Itachi had a full-blown rebellion on his hands and was torn between his loyalty to his clan and to his village. Sarada would have a much less dramatic conflict of having to choose between her own ambitions and her genuine love for her brother. She would loved to have taught him a new technique... but she won't ever become the Hokage spending her time like that.
