I thought it would be best for everyone if I put one of these up.

If you have any issues about how I play Bourne, you are encouraged to raise them with me here. Of course, I very much welcome use of examples with your problem, so I can have a better idea of what to fix. If you have questions about why Bourne did something or why he did so in the way he did, those are also encouraged.

I want to be the best player I can for all of you, after all!

Anonymous commenting is on. As for the IP address issue, in spite of playing hackers, I have absolutely no idea of what to do with them, so you're quite safe.

If you feel the need to contact me privately, the best way is probably by e-mailing agreylady@gmail.com. You can also talk to me at my rl journal,

elspeth_vimes, or look for the elusive Elspeth Vimes on AIM.

For some reference on my Bourne, should you feel the desire:

Because I think about this man way too much.
I have a habit of using Bourne and David interchangeably when talking about this character. That is not the case in this essay. The different names are important here.

My brain is doing very strange things right now.

Which means, among other things, that I've somehow ended up making a second fst for Bourne.

Your Love Life is Like Casablanca

"Kiss me. Kiss me as if it were the last time."

For you, love is never finished. If you've loved someone once, you'll always love them.

You're an old fashioned romantic... even if your relationships don't end up as romantic as you'd like.

Your love style: Traditional and understated

Your Hollywood Ending Will Be: Complicated and ambiguous

What Movie Is Your Love Life Like?

It really works.
Moreover, it makes me insanely happy. ~~...I count as a Casablanca fangirl.~~

So that people who should know (i.e. Near, L) know what the heck he's doing. So as not to clog your flist even more than I'll be doing anyway, I will just keep updating this post.

Day 1
-David wakes up and believes himself back in the apartment Treadstone got him in Paris (though, of course, he's not). He leaves the building he is in, finds a newspaper that he belives indicates that it is 2002.
-He posts to the comm from a cafe.
-He believes he is getting messages from Conklin on his cell.
-Checks into random hotel.
-Becomes very upset with Angelus.
-Believes himself found by one of the workers in the Paris Treadstone office. This annoyed collegue insisted that David meet with Conklin next morning. He ends up agreeing.

Day 2
-Meeting with Conklin. Conklin expresses displeasure that Bourne had not reported in properly and then briefs him on a new target.
-After the meeting David pitches his cell phone and buys another.
-He posts from the library. He believes another person at the library is watching him.
-Returns to the "apartment"(Near's hq), goes through books and papers looking for any information that could help (don't worry, he's not actually reading your books, Near).

Day 3
-Loses the tail (that he never really had), checks into random hotel #2.
-Is determined not to become an assasin again. Or still. Or whatever. Posts.
-Plans to invade the CIA's sekrit base and convince them to leave him alone (i.e. end of movie 1).

Day 4
-Puts plans into action (don't worry, he's not actually bothering anyone, yay abandoned buildings).

Technically it's Day 5 by now
-CIA, and thus fear, defeated! It becomes quite evident that it was all in his head. Finds a cafe and posts.

...Planning all this made me happy~. How sad.

It's the permission meme! Back to haunt you. Courtesy of the mun who feels like sticking with this character for the moment and is bored.

Medical Info: Bourne keeps himself in very good shape, and is capable of pretty much anything physical within reason. He's got a very strong immune system. He has a truly impressive pain tolerance, and can, and will, treat most damage himself with the right supplies. He was shot twice in the back three years ago. And while he remembers a lot more of what Jason Bourne did now, there are still large patches of amnesia and he remembers almost nothing about the original David Webb.

Notes for the Psychics: Amnesia. And of course, in spite of the semi-normal appearence he's working to keep up, his thoughts are often pretty dark. Comes of being turned into a human weapon, reforming yourself after getting amnesia, and having your girlfriend killed while she's right next to you.

What's Okay To Mention Around Him: You can say pretty much anything. Of course, he might not believe some of it. Or have no idea what you're talking about, since his pop culture knowledge is practically nonexistant. And of course some things will upset him. Making light of death, except maybe if it's your own, or saying that assasins are cool or something, will make him very angry, for example.

Abilities: Truly, deeply mad spy skills. Seriously. Can't exactly list them, but if it's in that area, he can do it.

Can I shapeshift/bodyswap/slash/etc?: If I sign him up for some virus/event, sure. If you'd like him to be in some plot, just ask.

Maim/Murder/Death: Maiming or otherwise harming is fine if it comes up naturally in some plot or something, though of course I would like to be informed that it'll happen. Death I'll need a decent heads up on and a good reason to go through with, but it's possible.

Kissing/Hugging/Badtouch: Sneaking up on him or very suddenly tapping on the shoulder or something is a bad idea. For you. Simple automatic reactions, even kind of toned down, may well result in bruising. Properly approached, hugging will mean akwardness and him going "whut?," but he'll probably hug back if you hang on long enough. Kissing on the cheek and such will make him wonder why you did that but he won't find it any more akward than hugging (he did live in France, after all). Kissing on the mouth is probably not going to happen unless he's become romanticaly involved with the other party. If it somehow does otherwise, akward liek whoa. Probably blushing. And for the record, romance is possible, but it'll be slow to happen, he's still in love with Marie of course, if someone apped Marie...*is shot*. Anything else is not going to happen unless he lets it, which right now means it's not going to happen.
