[OOC - grab bag virus planning post/possessed Issei plotting.]

Well, we all knew I was going to do this sometime.

I'll copy what I said on my mod approval comment, just to save time.

"For the 'virus you thought you missed' virus, I was thinking of doing the 'what if' virus, and for that I was planning on setting up the situation to reuse a canon event: namely, Issei getting possessed by Caster.

Basically, what happens in canon is that whenever someone asks Issei too many questions about Caster, she takes over his body and tries to kill both the person asking and Issei. This doesn't happen now because Caster is dead and that spell's no longer in effect, but the 'what if' would be if Caster had survived. Someone on the community asks too many questions, and Issei gets possessed.

Possessed!Issei's modus operandi is to kill whoever asked the questions, then himself. This doesn't work so well over the internet, and I expect him to make an attempt at killing... uh, basically anyone he's told about Caster, which is almost everyone he knows, and then dispose of himself. He'll be neutralized before he does permanent harm to anyone, and probably be in the hospital until the virus is over.

...For reference: here is the video of where possessed!Issei appears in the game, and these few untranslated pages here are his appearance in the manga. (...I intend to have him stabbing people, as per the game, rather than flailing at people, as per the manga, because it looks less ridiculous, but how easy he is to knock out if you're super-strong is from the manga.)"

So, where you guys come in. I'd like volunteers for all of the following:

1. Someone to ask too many questions and trigger possessed!Issei. He'll probably want to come after you first, although I don't anticipate that someone as Obviously Evil as Caster-in-Issei's-body will be able to get a worldhop, so that may not happen.
2. Some other people for him to attack. As said above, this will probably require you to come to his world, although I'm sure some people will to save Issei from this horrible evil person that's talking about disposing of him once they're finished. Possessed!Issei is very fast, and either strong or accurate enough to kill someone with a knife to the stomach who's survived beatings on from a massive axe-sword.
3. Someone to finally neutralize him. Anyone here is probably capable of providing the superpowered bitchslap seen in the manga, as long as they don't mind getting stabbed first.

Thanks for your help, you guys! I've been looking forward to doing this forever. ...Which probably makes me a bad mun.

(Most of my responses will be after I get back from school, I just wanted to get this up. Back.)

Ban volunteers for whatever you need him for, since I think he fits into any of those categories, \o/

And no, this doesn't make you a bad person; I cannot wait to see badass!Issei.

edit: duhr, *lol* Saber and Rena are up for grabs as well.

Ban would actually be a really good person to have trigger the possession, because if Issei mentions that Caster and Kuzuki are around, Ban will know that this is a Bad Sign because they are Bad People who do Bad Things. He just won't know that asking about it is a Bad Idea.

...I feel bad for Saber now. "Why are Servants coming back from the dead, what is this I don't even. >|"

Awesome! And if need be, he can head over and fight/be attacked. I think Ban's proven he can take quite a beating, *lol*

For srs. Saber's going to be all "DID I DO NOTHING RIGHT WRYYYYYY?!"

"This works better on people who aren't obscenely strong. Gdit."

Aren't people supposed to die when they're killed?!

Dude, at least you aren't getting him all Asclepius on your ass - unless it gets that bad. Then you'd best be having your final affairs in order. >_>

YES. WHAT IS THIS SURVIVING BULLSHIT. B|

You'd really kill Issei like that, Ban. Let's be thankful you're not doing that.

brb, going to eat my woes away
