So I've got a bit of a question for you, Elf (or Alice, if you know the answer).
Are we allowed to introduce NPCs in a scene solely for the purpose of killing them and showing off how badass our characters are? I'm not aiming to make a habit of it or anything like that, but Jojo's the kind of guy who can't really be introduced in a non-awesome way, so I figure I'll do some random vamp mook killing in his first post, just to establish the character and such.
I can definitely answer for you.
Yes, you most certainly can.
Hell, I think I introduced both Mille and Ryoko that way. ...granted, Mille got her werewolf kills offscreen and Ryoko didn't actually quite score the kill on RAV (though that was more of a change up on my part because that fight scene turned out dull as toast), but same diff.
So go ahead with Jojo murderin' a whole swarm of vampire mooks, my good man.
...also, will look at the lantz posts in a bit.
EDIT: OK, looked at 'em. You said Lin was bringing in some sort of secret weapon, lantz. Plus the whole damn thing was pretty suspicious. Maybe if you'd, I don't know, told us what the hell that weapon was, maybe things would be different. Plus you made those boxes pretty prominent, that makes them likely to contain the weapons.
And, no, lantz, that's no justification for just blowing off Kiyoshi like that. He threatened the boy's
mom, that's a freakin' huge deal, you don't ignore that because someone told you to go somewhere. Plus he could clearly stay there long enough to laugh off Shuya and prove to Rin that he's a liar on top of everything else. So no, lantz, you're not wriggling out of this one.
