I want details~.

well, he doesn't particularly care either way, tbqh. They were a source of entertainment back home, but just a few of many. He's interested in seeing what Mikado plans to do, see if he's going to try to mobilize a portion of camp anonymously like he did Ikebukuro (deliberately or not) and if Kida plans on telling Mikado about himself or not and what KIDA's going to do, with Aoba in camp and ~knowing things~ and... Izaya's just watching. Mild meddling and trolling, but mostly he's keeping Kida paranoid by not...doing much. Because making Kida wonder what he's up to is funnier than actually doing something.

Who else are Izaya's favorite people to troll and why? EXTREME BONUS ROUND: excluding anyone AJ plays.

[piecrumbs.livejournal.com]

...that's a good question. since I don't play Izaya all that much. FAILURE ;~;!!! Or well, I do but rarely off the same people, so... He's kind of just... There.

[thekingsgambit.livejournal.com]

Ok, I'll make it more generic. What does Izaya look for in deciding who to troll? Or what reactions make him troll harder?

[piecrumbs.livejournal.com]

People who do stupid things to protect people important to themselves! People who are more than what they appear. People who seem to have another side of them (whether they recognize it's presence or not) and what it'd take for that to come out. People who are so ordinary in every sense of the word, and what happens when they are faced with a life-changing something, whether it's an event or situation or recognition of ______. People that start off one way and then change due to outside influences; what sort of influences and who and how these interactions affect the original "subject." What people would do for various...others/things.

This is what he's interested in, because humans are so multi-faceted and so changeable and emotional.

... I should thread Setsuna off Izaya. No wait, YOU DECIDE, who should I thread off Izaya?

[piecrumbs.livejournal.com]

hmmm.

...

DO YOU EVEN PLAY ANY NORMAL HUMANS???

[thekingsgambit.livejournal.com]

... Eddie's normal. :(

[piecrumbs.livejournal.com]

oh. ...tell me more about him.

[thekingsgambit.livejournal.com]

Umm... he's a New Yorker and a former heroin addict. He also used to be a drug gunner for a gang until his brother OD'd and got his head cut off when Eddie came to save him. Since then, Roland dragged him into his alternate dimension and taught Eddie to use a gun like a gunslinger and pretty much gave his life a sense of purpose. From time to time, he has some psychic abilities, although that's mostly related to the plot. He's very much a wise-cracker but also has huge self-esteem issues and worries about failure. He's married to another lady Roland picked up. Oh, and he got shot and killed before they could finish their quest, which he's extremely devoted to: Finding the Tower and protecting the rose that represents it.

...........................................well.

I think the "self-esteem issues and worries about failure" is the most interesting part about that, in relation to Izaya >>;;

[thekingsgambit.livejournal.com]

The problem with Eddie is that he's an ass. |D He trolls right back.

[piecrumbs.livejournal.com]

as if that's never happened before.
