Martin Spiralwave -o-Havik-o- Martin Spiralwave -o-Havik-o- Martin Spiralwave -o-Havik-o- Will do, when it is finished though, will it have any sort of passive stealth defense? Or will it be like the other Ocular bloodlines, and have to be activated? Well it will need to be activated but there is a chance Enro will always keep it activated due to his natural 'paranoia' and experience with a bloodline he's been in tune with for a long time. Luls, after he meets Miho's sneaky a** he will have a good reason to be xD
@ Azeil, watching TV with the GF so pretty good.I think if Miho met Enro and got snippy, she would wake up duct-tapped to a gurney, naked, and with a hazy figure replacing a few inner organs after successfully implanting a strange object into her stomach.....too xP Sai is merciless but Enro has few boundaries or ethics. Everything is fair game. Pfft, Enro can't do nothing, or he will get a Kunai shoved in his Bum and She wont even have to touch it.Oh we'll see about that... Lilly: Swimming? Yeah, it does that xP Excellent way to work out though It is! Got moved up a lane recently so I'm kinda stuck pushing myself harder as to not hold up the rest of the ppl and in general to not fall too far behind. But yeah, great way to work out. Most sports will normally work out only one or two muscles but swimming works them all. Great way to clear one's mind too! 3nodding

@Azeil: Sorry about the gay comment... but with the cloths... and a big man whispering in your ear... come on. rofl Ah, so I was right in thinking so. Anyways, my main question to you is how a clone would have the same chakra signature as the original when clones at most have like 1/10 of the original's powers? I would assume it applies to the chakra levels as well. The closest would be a Kage Bunshin since everything is divided equally but that's just my opinion.

I would assume it applies to the chakra levels as well. The closest would be a Kage Bunshin since everything is divided equally but that's just my opinion. Not in my case, the 1/10th is all combat, but my clone, because I am stealth specialty, has the same chakra sig as me so I can make a bunch, and send them in all direction in case I am being tracked by a sensor. There is no difference between my clones chakra, and my own, accept of course that I am suppressing mine atm.
Don't get me wrong, I am not completely sure how this will work, you can sense my chakra level and tell were I am, but the clone is only a trick to TRY and hide my self and make you think your just sensing my clone, no idea if it will work or not. But the chakra sig, in my clone is from my specialty, you would know if it was a normal clone, or at least I think so.

As to Misuki seeing through your trick, she'll most likely question it and since she's still at stage one for the Sindoue clan, hearing heartbeats from afar is not something she can do. Therefore, the only thing I have going for me is Misuki questioning why Miho would just walk right up to her without attempting a sneak attack or something. Will post once everyone (namely Raijin) gets in a post. Then its off to the Hospital/Library for me. XP

She isn't really about the friendly exchange of info with people she dosn't have to be.
And did she really already give you the vibe she is gonna try to attack you? Sweet. mrgreen Your bloodline is gonna be a b***h to get around later btw.

XP Well not really attack but just the vibe that'll she'll keep trying stuff until she succeeds. So yeah, she'll keep testing out that [Stealth] mode till it works. Well, that still depends if I really want to advance onto it or not. I'm rather iffy about letting Misuki loose her sight but maybe if the situation calls for it. World's too beautiful to not see again. It'll be interesting though, trying to rp a blind person. Makes me think of this one creative writing assignment my friend told me about. 'Explain a sunset to a blind person'. I have a feeling I might be attempting something similar if I were to every rp Misuki blind. Sure she'll have a different way of seeing but in a sense, she's blind so yeah.

@ Azeil, watching TV with the GF so pretty good. I think if Miho met Enro and got snippy, she would wake up duct-tapped to a gurney, naked, and with a hazy figure replacing a few inner organs after successfully implanting a strange object into her stomach.....too xP Sai is merciless but Enro has few boundaries or ethics. Everything is fair game. Pfft, Enro can't do nothing, or he will get a Kunai shoved in his Bum and She wont even have to touch it.Oh we'll see about that... Lilly: Swimming? Yeah, it does that xP Excellent way to work out though It is! Got moved up a lane recently so I'm kinda stuck pushing myself harder as to not hold up the rest of the ppl and in general to not fall too far behind. But yeah, great way to work out. Most sports will normally work out only one or two muscles but swimming works them all. Great way to clear one's mind too! 3nodding Congratulations! I hate moving up a lane for that exact reason but I do like the whole 'rank up' feeling it gives me smile

Afterwards I just stuck with lane 3 since it was better suited for my pace. In the summer we only have 3 lanes and the the first is reserved for like the super fast ppl so normally only 4 ppl get in it the other two are shared by like 10 ppl so with all the newcomers, I kinda expected it but wasn't looking forward to it. At least I'm pushing myself harder. It gives me a better workout so I guess I can't complain.

Would be funny rofl but Misuki does seem like the nature loving, taking in the view kinda girls.

I'm actually not even joining the team this year because I plan on focusing exclusively on school but usually (out of the five lanes we have) I'm at 3 because but thats only due to raw energy from kicking instead of good form and whatnot. I only actually learned how to swim about 2 years ago and I joined my team soon afterwards so I actually didn't expect to end up in lane 3 at this point. Especially since I STILL can't do butterfly or long-distance(unless its in breastroke).

Outfits might be hard to pick out though... Yeah, so like I said, it'll be a difficult situation and not to always go back to it, but I don't think Misuki could handle not being able to actually 'see' Deil so yeah...lots to think about,

Don't worry to much about the form, you just started so it'll come with time. Butterfly's difficult. Even I have difficulties teaching it to kids. Some kids just can get that wave motion so no worries. That and even if they can do it, their fourms are really off. Its usually the kids who are apart of a club that gets their fourms to look really good. Breatstroke's awesome! If you can do distance with breast, I think you'll be alright to do it with free as well unless the side breathing is really difficult. Back shouldn't be too back for long distance. I don't really like back mainly for the reason that I suck at it. Xp

I can Butterfly for about three seconds but then I quickly get exhausted and sloppy. But im hoping it's more of a stamina problem rather than anything else. Also, Breastroke is my favorite. I can do an entire practice of breastroke without complaining but I think my stamina is what's stopping me from being a strong swimmer. I'm told I have an insanely powerful kick and my feet are like flippers but I crave fresh-air xP But I've honestly come to enjoy swimming and im going to miss it once school starts again.

I'm actually not even joining the team this year because I plan on focusing exclusively on school but usually (out of the five lanes we have) I'm at 3 because but thats only due to raw energy from kicking instead of good form and whatnot. I only actually learned how to swim about 2 years ago and I joined my team soon afterwards so I actually didn't expect to end up in lane 3 at this point. Especially since I STILL can't do butterfly or long-distance(unless its in breastroke). That's smart as for me, my high school didn't have a pool so I joined an outside club. My collage will have one though but I'm not too sure if my schedule would allow it in. Lane 3 in only 2 years?! That's amazing Martin and yeah, most pools usually have like 5 lanes. Don't worry to much about the form, you just started so it'll come with time. Butterfly's difficult. Even I have difficulties teaching it to kids. Some kids just can get that wave motion so no worries. That and even if they can do it, their fourms are really off. Its usually the kids who are apart of a club that gets their fourms to look really good. Breatstroke's awesome! If you can do distance with breast, I think you'll be alright to do it with free as well unless the side breathing is really difficult. Back shouldn't be too back for long distance. I don't really like back mainly for the reason that I suck at it. Xp I would've loved to join a summer league but I never had time to. I can Butterfly for about three seconds but then I quickly get exhausted and sloppy. But im hoping it's more of a stamina problem rather than anything else. Also, Breastroke is my favorite. I can do an entire practice of breastroke without complaining but I think my stamina is what's stopping me from being a strong swimmer. I'm told I have an insanely powerful kick and my feet are like flippers but I crave fresh-air xP But I've honestly come to enjoy swimming and im going to miss it once school starts again. Yeah, I get what you mean, school work can be a chore. I actually had to struggle a bit this year seeing how Seniors get a lot of major assignments. That and work, I'm surprised I managed. -_- It probably is. Butterfly is really tiring and even some of our younger and faster swimmers can't do it well. Most of it lies on the muscles though as well as stanima. They're fine for the other strokes but butterfly is the most taxing. For me though, its tiring but I really enjoy it. (Best stroke lol) Ah! Breaststroke use to be my fav and it's great that you'll be able to do an entire practice on that stroke alone. One time for practice, Coach assigned each of us our own stroke and we had to do the entire workout in only that stroke! I died by the end of it. It was when I first started but coach could see my butterfly form was good so he pushed me (argh, it was dreadful...). lol, that's understandable but you're like my total opposite. My kicks are weak, my arms are my best. Kicking wise, I can only do dolphin kick well. So yeah, I'm lagging cause I can't kick enough. Mhm, reason I joined up with the club in the first place was caused I loved the sport. Is there no way you can not join the team but still swim with them from time to time?
