Well, yeah. Not to mention the other point is from 'Charming, Not Sincere'. :)

Oops! Apologies. I meant to post that in the OOC.

(in RP) when Persephone is suddenly hit with a wave of attraction to Emma (ref), is this literally while a vampire is lunging at her?!
Up to you, that is when she suddenly got as hot as one can get (without being a corrupted by fairies:) (Heart +3!). There is no mechanical effect, but you are welcome to incorporate it into what you do, or leave it.

Ah! Gotcha. OK I will wait until Persephone is not seeing a vampire for the first time in her life, who is trying to actively attack her, before I notice. lol!

Suit yourself. :)

I should say that I AM planning on taking the Faerie move too, as my next advance. Would it have to be actual Faerie power, or can it be related to another supernatural, or even none at all?

Hmm OK fine you twisted my arm

oops! Cross posted. I think it still stands as is, but I'll post again once I see the response from the vampire.

Hey, I was just throwing it out there, I have no idea what vagueGM planned, and maybe Emma was completely wrong.

Planned? What's that word? People keep using that word! :)

Why am I not surprised. :) When I did the search for what could get you hotter and found that, I immediately thought you might.
Delirium says:

We shall see when it happens. We can talk about it closer to the time?

Remember being this hot can bring lots of Corruption.

I hope I didn't, I was completely joking.

What are you doing with your new form?

• Attacking? Describe the 3-Harm Weapon you manifest and roll Turn to Violence.
Impress, dismay, or frighten someone with a display of demonic fury? Roll Let It Out.
• Or, if you are feeling extreme, you could imbue your touch with demonic corruption (2-harm hand ap) bringing it to 5-Harm, which will obliterate most things with one hit.

Can I assume it IS Chablis? Because in that case, Emma would want to ask Pers not to hurt her...

Wait? You are asking me if you character can assume something!? Yeah!

Also, you rolled a 10, so you are probably correct, but you don't know what Chablis looks like (you never got into Sarah's phone, nor fount the pictures of her at the Velvet Sin).

So, go ahead and ask... but the vampire is attacking!

Frighten, at first, until I know who this is and what their intent is. I didn't want to roll a second roll in a row until I heard from you. I'll roll the Let It Out.

Fair. When one roll sets up another, (and succeeded) rolling the follow-up is usually fine. But it can help to first talk about what the options are.
Drgwen says:

Well, their intent was to eat you. :)

The fact that you have your 'game-face' on does not change the dice roll, but does, heavily, influence what the outcomes mean, and, possibly, give you the narrative licence to even try this on a vampire (without needing other setup first).
With an 8 you both Mark Corruption and pay a price.

Do you have a preference for which price it is? Costly would probably mean you get hit (they were attacking); limited would only give you a brief window to act; and unstable might mean it does not go the way you hoped but ends it and does not cost you more (right now).

Let's do Costly. I think Persephone would perversely enjoy telling Emma, See? This isn't all fun and games. Be safer, girl!

OK. Do you want to describe your character taking what is obviously a 2-Harm blow from the vampire, though only 1-Harm gets through your Armor? And then also how your countenance makes her fall back in dismay?
