Magatama opt-in



Magatama opt-in


Phoenix has brought along his magatama to [community profile] penancerp and [community profile] ximilia. What this means is that while he's carrying it he can see the "locks" on people's hearts. Simply put, he can tell when someone is lying. This is either intentionally (red locks) or even without the person being aware of it themselves because it's a secret that's locked so deep they can't face it (usually traumatic; black locks). The way to break these locks is basically to prove to the person lying that you know the truth, through EVIDENCE.

I don't want to just go around having Phoenix see lies without permission, though, so here's an opt-in if you'd be up for playing with this little magic gadget of his.

Basically, if you've opted in and you let me know through narration that your character is telling a lie, I might slam some locks on them to prompt Phoenix to potentially Investigate.

Saul might not always cooperate with attempts to unlock the locks, but feel free to magatama him up whenever. There are two things that will show up with a black lock, though, and it's two of the deaths he's indirectly sort of responsible for.

I'm definitely fine with Akira having his lies discovered. Not that it's that hard because he's canonly awful at keeping his Phantom Thief stuff hidden. I'm not sure if black locks would show up but I can let you know if said locks are black. Otherwise it's mostly red ones.

GO FOR IT BABY. I think it'd be hilarious because Ann's tried SO HARD to keep her Phantom Thievery under wraps, both at home AND here, so to have Nick figure it out quickly amuses me so much!!

I'm about to tag into a post so I thought I'd drop a comment here. Sui has one red lock and one black lock. The red lock comes from hiding the fact he's actually a nine-tailed fox temporarily reincarnated as a human. The black lock is the result of hidden memories. I'm fine with the red lock being opened fairly quickly, but for now, I'd like to keep the black lock.

Let me know if you have any questions.

(slaps yujin's back) this baby can fit so many psychelocks in him

His are mostly red, but there are also a few juicy black ones. Yujin is so full of secrets you could take your pick, honestly: if it comes up let's totally plot. Have fun, Nick! :}b

NO SECRETS BETWEEN FAMILY!

(I'll maybe get tired of making these jokes eventually. Maybe.)

No but feel free to just go for it. Not that Ryunosuke is much in the habit of lying or being dishonest, but. yk. ON THE ODD CHANCE IT COMES UP....
