Name Shark // Ryugamine Mikado
Age 17. Looks roughly 13.
Team Coral

Height/Build 165 cm (5'5") and 50 kg (110 lbs)--in summary, a bit short and skinny as hell.
Hair Color/Eye Color Black/Blue grey.
Notable Traits He looks like a middle schooler. He (apparently) makes a very convincing girl when he cosplays. But otherwise he looks like a really typical geeky Japanese boy, underweight and incredibly pale.

-As of day 152, there is a large cut across his right palm, as if he grabbed a knife. Scarred visibly.

-As of day 153 he wears a gold bracelet with a reflective stone on his wrist.

-Tiny paw print on his left hand, as of day 160.

-As of day 162 and the move to Wonderland, he's wearing: A team-colored suit jacket with sweeping tails, a cream-colored cravat with your key acting as the pin to hold it in place, and a pair of slacks with narrow black-and-team-colored stripes. Knee-high black boots that lace up with bright ribbon, and gold or silver or bronze buttons emblazoned with clock faces that seem to always tell a different time . . .

-As of day 233 and the move to Camelot he still has the Wonderland and Three's Cove uniforms, but now wears:

✦ A dark pink sweater over a coral dress shirt
✦ Black pants (tucked into boots)
✦ A full-length coral jacket with epaulets
✦ An oversized coral hooded cape with silver lining & hidden inner pockets
✦ Mid-thigh fleece-lined black leather combat boots with coral accents
✦ Snow goggles & black leather glove
A shark hat knitted by Lloyd

-Scars:
-Lots of little ones on his arms and sides, like he ran through a storm of razor blades. (Firebird quest)
-A large impalement scar on his side, several smaller accompanying ones around it. (Butterfly monster)
-Massive, ugly scaring around both ankles, messy and haphazard, the source is hard to figure out but it looks like flesh was gouged and ripped. (Firebird quest)
-Massive gash across one palm. (Hakuren's heart)
-Nasty stab wound in his side below his ribs. (Jabberquest game)

Other He's an ordinary human. He has no special aura or noteworthy abilities, he's not especially evil nor especially good. If someone can sense violence, he's been involved in some nasty business, but even then there's no murder to his name.
-Voiced by Toshiyuki Toyonaga

Hiatus

I'll be out of the country for a couple weeks starting next week! That means Shark, Bear and Sion will be on hiatus. Bear and Sion will probably be off with a Persona, if anyone wants them! Shark may be on auto pilot unless I need to retroactively send him off as well!

Memory 28

Memory: Significant Neutral - Seiji and Celty fight, Mikado calls Seiji admirable (Vol 1, chapter 11, part 2)
Game: Game (didn't played)
Game Master: Kiriko
Day: 218
Notes: [ The memories take the form of a small wooden box in your team color. They are viewable up to seven times.] (Not taken)

To Mikado, it seemed very much like a rather hilarious comedy, but he couldn’t exactly laugh at it. )

Note:
-Middle of a fight??
-Is Seiji attacking me???
-Celty is going to--whoa there Celty that scythe got sharp
-...
-Oh wow
-That's.... Harima Mika?
-Not Celty's head?
-Well this got hilarious
-Seiji and Mika look sad though maybe encourage them a bit!
-I mean their feelings for each other are admirable ///

What we learned:
This is part of one of the big confrontation scenes of book one! It answers a lot of questions Mikado didn't know he had. Like what happened to Harima Mika, and who was the mysterious girl who might be Celty's head. It also gives him some insight on his classmates. It's kind of romantic, really! At least Mikado thinks so.

Memory 27

Memory: Trivial Negative - Being attacked in his apartment and saved by Celty (Vol 1, chapter 10, part 2)
Game: Game (played)
Game Master: Dream
Day: 217
Notes: [ form: an intricate wooden heart that has a gear and a crank on the back. Turn the crank to receive memory - after 6 turns the crank will break off and become useless :c ] 1/6 taken

When he’d seen that supernatural being before, he’d been filled with unmistakable joy, yet as he faced these two crooks who were clearly human just like him, there was only fear in his heart. What was wrong with him anyway? )

Note:
-Going into his aparentment to talk to the girl who might have Celty's head
-He's ambushed by thugs who pin him to the floor and ask where she is
-They threaten to kill him D:
-It's so scary he wants to cry even though he was excited by Celty being headless just a few minutes ago these guys are scary
-He's self-aware enough to know something is really wrong with him
-Celty and Izaya rush in and the guys run off
-Saved!!
-Wait they're from Yagiri Pharmaceuticals?
-...Pieces start to fall into place but he won't remember what yet

What we learned:
So this is right after memory 2 and he's ambushed in his own house by bad guys who threaten to kill him! It's really terrifying enough to make him cry! And he does cry when he's rescued! Ahhh that was scary. But he's immediately distracted by the information that those guys were from Yagiri Pharmaceuticals, that's a really important key piece in a puzzle...! But Mikado doesn't remember the rest of the puzzle yet.

-Oh
-She's joking
-Well played
-Embarrassed and guilty for believing her!
-Contemplating Anri, Mika and his situation with Kida on his way home
-When suddenly--!! but that's for another memory

What we learned: Right after memory 22. After discussing Mika they get ready to part ways. Then Anri starts saying things like she's been Mikado's stalker too and he panics. She says she was joking and relieved and embarrassed he apologizes. THUS BEGINS their continued awkwardness together forever. It's cute. Mikado decides she's not mysterious but rather bad at socializing and she's a good person and he likes her! He also reflects that he and Kida could reflect Anri and Mika if Mikado isn't careful not to let Kida overshadow him.

He feels a little down, and then hears the sound of the black bike! Excited he heads to see--

Memory 23

Memory: Trivial Positive - "Let's go pick up girls!" volunteering as class rep (Vol 1, chapter 8, part 1)
Game: Game (played)
Game Master: Mad Hatter
Day: 202
Notes: Come in the form of what appears to be a large-ish candy, in your team color. It tastes sweet when you lick it, but doesn't convey the memory—it also doesn't break if you chew on it, or . . . hit it with a hammer. You have to swallow it whole. Unshareable. Unless you're very determined? . . . um . . . well, no, let's just say no.

Each person can take home one small thing—an outfit, bottle of wine, stuffed toy, etc Taken

That’s right, let’s go pick up girls! )

Note:
—I want more excitement! I want an unconventional life! I want more change!
-A need for exciting things
-Volunteering as class rep next to Anri!
-Masaomi is awesome and makes like fun
-Bullying Masaomi a bit though
-plus 50 dangerous mental state

What we learned:
Boredom sucks. Also the first three days of classes can go into this memory so some every day, normal school life and hanging with Kida.

Memory 22

Memory: Significant Positive - Talking with Anri about how to try to find Mika (vol 1, chapter 8, part 4)
Game: Game (played)
Game Master: Three of Three
Day: 200
Notes: [Memories take the form of a friendship bracelet. Putting it on to receive memories. Three uses.] 1/3 taken

You don’t worry. I won’t tell anyone. The only person I might tell, is currently busy having an affair with a woman who has kids. )

Note:
-Ice cream floats with Anri ///
-Talking to Anri for the first time really
-A lot of information on Harima Mika and Anri's friendship and backstory
-Mika isss a stalker
-She's targeting that Seiji guy
-Anri is bullied because of her dark personality and Mika used to protect her
-Anri wants to surpass Mika
-plus 100 ability to comfort others
-plus 100 willingness to coldly interject when he feels someone is dumb
-plus/minus confidence boosts on speaking his mind! Ability to speak his mind more, second guessing after

What we learned:
This is a lot of information and a lot of bonding with Anri /// as well as some background info on Anri, Mika and their school (the school has dorms but Anri and Mikado both choose to live on their own. Apparently Mika's a rich girl) etc. MASSIVE CRUSH ON ANRI but she's not really a good friend yet. This is the big start though! They spend hours talking in this memory, trying to solve Anri's missing friend problem, and by the end Mikado feels a lot closer to her even if it's still a really new thing.

NOTE: the whole meeting Anri arc is different in the novels than it is in the anime!

Heart Game

You have the sensation of falling--no, drowning. Your lungs burn, you can’t breathe, you try to struggle but the current drags you down down down and just as you’re losing consciousness you know you’re dying...

You jerk, abruptly, the landing a little rough as you stand. Your clothes are dry and there’s no water in your lungs. You can breathe.

You find a bluetooth headset on your head, it crackles with static then goes silent.

((Join #sharkbait. Go ahead and start right here. Unless you're Nezumi in which case start here. If you're late check with me on IRC where to start.))

((POWERS: all combat and non-healing powers are ON in this heart. Status removing powers and items are off. Healing powers and items are almost completely ineffective at the start, I'll tell you if it changes. You have all your equipment.))

Heart Game

So I am aiming to start Shark's fix it heart run on January 5th I don't know, let's say around 5pm PST. Since I intend to run it for days/until most things are settled then coming late/leaving halfway/derping around shouldn't be a problem, but I would like to get a lot done on the first day if possible!

I STILL ACTUALLY HAVE TO WRITE IT SOB but this post is to gauge--IS THIS A GOOD TIME? Are people interested in coming? Do you like pie? Leave a comment!

OH RIGHT WARNINGS this isn't going to be a light heart and you may end up injured or dying/respawning (maybe a few times) and for the most part it will not be nice in there. I HAVEN'T DECIDED but you might want to bring your boss-fighting boots--at the very least, be aware you're going to have to struggle a lot in this heart.

Heart Game Write up part 1

HEART GAME I have never done a write up so here we got:

Start

This area is pretty featureless but also important. It’s also the most stable area of the heart and impossible to affect (well maybe people could have but I have no idea how). It’s the balance between Up (moekado) and Down (bosskado) and the reset point for everything. The reflective motif of the whole heart starts here, and in this place, both water and mirrors are the only way to get anywhere. Stay too long and you’re docked health for being passive and not doing things
(boredom).

Also up through the mirror (facades) and down through the water (water metaphors) have meaning blah blah. In most of the heart, mirrors (whether a mirror, a pool or water, a TV screen or other reflective surface) are facades and A BAD THING. Here though, the mirror is just a way into his surface facade/moekado area.

I gave people cell phones here because they needed a way to find the password and I found I really liked them all texting Mikado and each other so I will probably do something similar in every heart. At least with him and maybe Sion.

Also the only people to get docked for not picking up or down were Mikage and Lloyd.

Originally “down” only led to “sinking” and the room with Aoba and bosskado and up only led to the school and Coral. Typing the password in the phone was the way to reach the computer room, and the memories were in Coral. I added a lot of things last minute. So let’s map! Starting with the lower levels.

Memory 20

Memory: Significant Negative - "That boy is merely human" Vorona and Anri fight while Mikado is blinded (Vol 6, chapter 5, part 8)
Game: Game (didn't play)
Game Master: Gingerbread Witch
Day: 192
Notes: Memories come in the form of four little breadcrumbs--well, pieces of bread anyway. They're about the size of your thumb and come inside a bag of your team color.

Four uses! 1/4 (Mouse and Kazuki both saw this in heart games)

Is that a grenade? )

Note:
-A grenade?
-Holy shit I am so blind
-Sounds of metal hitting metal and fighting, what's going on?
-The lady who threw the grenade, what's she saying?
-What is Sonohara-san doing?
-Everything is a daze of light and shock
-......
-A mere human?
-Who is that person to decide what I am?
-But... It's true isn't it?
-.....
-How useless am I as a human?
-Sonohara-san had to protect me again
-"Black feelings" of rage, hurt pride, and humiliation

What we learned:
Setting: Anri and Mikado are sneaking around behind Raira's back field when Vorona shows up and throws a flashbang at them.

And then some things happen.

The entire scene is white out and shock for Mikado. He's on the ground holding his eyes while the girl he likes fights off an assassin, protecting him. He's had a long day, hasn't slept in two days, just received a nasty beating and repeated kicks to the head right before this, and has probably been running on adrenaline and stress for at least an hour or two now. Needless to say he's not in a stable state of mind or emotion when this all goes down.

So while Anri and Vorona are fighting and talking about him basically being useless, while he's blinded, he doesn't really react well. There are a WHOLE lot of bad emotions up in here. And the damage to his pride at being useless, at Anri protecting him, at not doing anything, at being looked down on is really really hard on him here. He starts to feel a whole lot of rage for just a bit, some more emerging crazy surfacing to his own awareness. He wants to make someone hurt. He wants not to be dismissed.

In short, yanyanyan
