Honeymooning a month or so ;)
Then just keeping up with my martial arts. Return to my school and reopen it for a couple months.

((20 GE roll))
*Your honeymoon does last for a month, but it wasn't much of a honeymoon, no where to go other than stay in your room, and you get interrupted a lot. You start the school back up for a month before one of your students goes missing.*

That might give me the perfect opportunity to take my character development exactly the direction I want it to go.

I'm going to pay the student a house call after they miss three lessons in a row.
Sun Nov 14 2010 8:30 pm # -
*You arrive in his house, and after a few rings he answers the door*
"Sorry, just getting over from being sick, I'm all better now."
*he smiles*
Sun Nov 14 2010 8:35 pm # -
"Alright. Take your time getting better. If you need anything, don't hesitate to call."
Seems pretty anti-climactic, but I don't have a right to pry into whether he's sick or playing hooky, or to care either way.

*He nods*
"Thanks, I will, I look forward to seeing you again and hanging out and renew our close friendship."
*He grins*

Read his mind.
Then back to work.

*You get a weak link, it is thinking how to not arouse suspicion, and to get information to not stick out.*
Sun Nov 14 2010 9:38 pm # -
Half-turn away, then turn back. "You know, maybe I could give you a private lesson here and now. Free of charge. May I come in?"
Sun Nov 14 2010 10:43 pm # -
*He smiles*
"No I'm find, I'm still recovering you know, under the weather and all."
Sun Nov 14 2010 10:57 pm # -
"Perhaps I could make you a pot of tea, then, and discuss with you what you've missed."
Sun Nov 14 2010 11:26 pm # -
*He nods and opens the door for you to come in to make the tea*
Sun Nov 14 2010 11:42 pm # -
Panoramic awareness.
If he makes any aggressive move, I will steal initiative and get in Untouchable.
Walking in to make the tea.
Mon Nov 15 2010 12:06 am # -
*You are not able to get Panoramic awareness up, but you do get into style, he is sitting down, making no aggressive moves*
Mon Nov 15 2010 12:12 am # -
-- If he makes any aggressive move, style up.
As the panoramic awareness failed, I'll just try to be listening and paying attention for any dangers.
Try to read his mind again while I do the tea thing.
Mon Nov 15 2010 12:42 am # -
*Another weak grab, it is wondering why you are making tea, and why are you paying so much attention and it is debating*
Mon Nov 15 2010 12:51 am # -
Make the tea, sit with him, ask, "Everything's alright, then?"
Read his mind.
Mon Nov 15 2010 1:26 am # -
*Really weak connection*
((HMM))
"Yes everything is alright"
*takes a sip of tea*
Mon Nov 15 2010 1:29 am # -
HMM seems more like a failure than a connection, but okay.
Close my eyes, feigning a headache, and try again.
Mon Nov 15 2010 2:19 am # -
*You get nothing*
"He asks you if you are alright"
Mon Nov 15 2010 2:27 am # -
"Yes, yes." Explain to him what he's missed in the last few sessions.
"Is there another reason why you haven't been coming to classes, other than your illness?"
Go for the mind reading again.
Mon Nov 15 2010 2:51 am # -
*It is tired of you annoying it*
"DIE"
*Black Tentacles appear and attack, you do not have initiative, do you wish to try to steal it?*
Mon Nov 15 2010 3:05 am # -
I certainly do intend to steal initiative, yeah...
Do style Untouchable and defenses.
Mon Nov 15 2010 3:48 am # -
*You go through your defenses, you get Panaramic Awareness, and since we aren't in combat yet, we will need a botch roll *using table on 291* for Muscle Blocking*
*You go unconscious, and that is the worst result you want at this point, GE roll 14, you hurt yourself a tiny bit, but the next part will not be pretty*
Stay Tuned.

*You awake, you are aware of another presence in your body, it has malicious intent, all of your senses still work, and you are like a passenger in your body, your body is speaking another language to your student, the conversation goes on for a half hour before both of you nod, you head out the door into the city.*
((Ok the symbiote has control, you can attempt to take control with a difficult willpower check, it can attempt to re exert control with a regular willpower check.))
*You are wandering around the city, the symbiote is attempting to learn as much as it can, so that it can impersonate you correctly. It is also gently probing your mind, but that will take a long time, as evidences by your student being "sick"*
Mon Nov 15 2010 1:19 pm # -
Interesting.
Then, I have my mind.
Try to teleport psionically into outer space.
I have been there before, and seen it through a window.
Mon Nov 15 2010 2:53 pm # -
*You did not make your willpower roll, and it gets a bonus next time you try such an action, it is walking around starting pleasant conversations with everyone, asking innocent questions to expand it's knowledge*
Mon Nov 15 2010 2:58 pm # -
?
I'm not making a body action. I'm using a mental ability.
Mon Nov 15 2010 3:09 pm # -
*You are a passenger in your body, you have no control unless you make a difficult willpower check, you tried to take an action it didn't want, you didn't make your willpower, so it is in control*

I'm a passenger in my body, body being the key word. Using psionic abilities doesn't involve my body, it involves my mind. Much as if I were born into a different body or found myself in someone else's body lost all my body skills, but psionic skills would be unaffected. Even with B14@ total controlling links where the being controlled needs to make a difficult will power check to use their body, there is nothing stating that such symbiotic links prevent the individual from thinking; as a matter of fact, it specifically says that the victim is able to think. As psionic abilities work solely through thought and I could feasibly do it if I were completely tied down gagged and blindfolded, it shouldn't require a check to take control of my body unless I'm also required a check for conscious thought, in which case on a failed check I shouldn't even have cognizance of what's going on.

This is how I am playing it, I clearly stated what rules it was under, if you wish to play strictly by the book, we can do that. I have a feeling your not going to want to do it that way, but I leave the option to you.
Mon Nov 15 2010 4:24 pm # -
Just saying. I'm still pretty sure that we were in round one of combat in the first place when the botch happened, since "initiative stealers act in turn" is one of the phases of combat, but I'm the player here.
Keep trying every five minutes or as often as you feel I can. Not like I've got anything better to do.
Mon Nov 15 2010 4:35 pm # -
You teleport into space, you die.
Mon Nov 15 2010 4:36 pm # -
To clarify my earlier statement, I completely 100% agree that any physical action requiring the use of my body I were to take would require a will power check, but argue simply that teleportive psionics are not a physical action requiring the use of my body.
