D) The stuff with Luni is an example of what I was talking about in B, player agency. I got room to exercise my creativity, and did so. Then we got the results. I really can't say anything more than that. This wasn't any sort of special toy or anything, but simply giving me room to write fluff.
Really, most of your complaints stem from the fact that I feel like you're not used to leading the way, Accel. Spending so much time shouting at angry (but interesting) people has taught me how to set myself a goal and go for it. The reason why I get what I want so often is that my primary objective is to get X done, not to do it while not offending someone else. It might be a bit disruptive, but the alternative is getting pulled by the nose, and I'm not taking that.

I guess. I think the major issue I have is the occasion where it slipped into OOC shenanigans. Like, "Oh you're about to do X? Well I'm going to roll my auspicious dice and.. LOOKIE THERE! LOTS OF AUTO-CRITS! Guess if you do this I'll just kill ya." Or, promptly before that, "Oh this isn't going my way? Well I guess I'll just use inviso-dust and run back upstairs and kill her anyway."
These of course only happened once, but they stuck with me, and it solidified the problem in my mind. Val can basically kill anybody he wants to if it came down to it. I don't like the feeling of being basically strong-armed into doing things one guy's way.
CPU has always done what he wanted and not what Kirie wanted. I got absolutely fed up with getting smacked by a fellow player and told him in no uncertain terms I'd pay him back tenfold so he'd drop the bull****. He gets to be OOC, I get to be OOC too.
