In Thunder's Echo (Legend of the Five Rings Quest)

Well....If Asako is flirting with Naoto because of Dangerous Beauty, then she has to see his face right? I can't see how Dangerous Beauty would affect her unless Naoto had his mask off.

Scorpion masks are only rarely fully concealing. I don't think we ever determined what Naoto's mask was like - in the original picture for him he has one that covers his nose and jaw, but that's still enough for him to look attractive.

Bayushi Kachiko, for example, has a mask that is basically just a stylized bit of lace designed to highlight her features.

That's fair. I was a little confused. Also.

[x] Deflect her. The last woman you flirted with committed suicide barely more than a week ago, after all.
 
I have nothing against her, like at all, but yeah just a little too soon.

Look, i like her, but Doji Mariko just died. Not the right time.
 
Just to be on the safe side, but "Deflect" is basically telling Tani that we might be interested under normal circumstances, but it's still a bit early since Mariko died, packed in properly polite language?

Pretty much. There'd be an etiquette check to make sure you handled it properly, but even in a culture like Rokugan it's not a terrible thing to be leery of a romantic entanglement soon after your previous partner died.
 
Hm... think we should spend a Void Point on it? Just to be on the safe side?
Not sure how many we have, or how quickly they regenerate, though.

We regain all void points every time we get a full night's rest, so given that I don't think we're going to have a more important check today, I think you're right about spending one.

Yeah I'll change to make sure we don't muck this up.

Sosuke: Wait, wasn't I just in a pitched battle? Hold on, Beiden Pass is still here? Am I in the past?! O_O

Welcome to the joys of the sudden L5R explosion on SV. People are getting all the stories mixed up. :D

Phoenix shujena w/Disadvantage: Yandere OP plz nerf
 
Instead of deflecting we could flirt in such a way that gets the message across that we are humoring a flirt if needed but are not available for anything more.

I mean, Naoto is a silver tongued devil after all...

And in a way going for the straightforward or expected answer in a test is way to obvious for a scorpion.

We could do the interesting, yeah we can be a entertaining company but still a bit reserved and somewhat reserved for a little, unspecified, while. Considering the recent events.
