-laughs- Believe me, anon, I've made plenty of enemies over the years.

[If anything that Kasumi has proven is that she can be almost surprisingly articulate. She knows how to play people, and language can be one of the most powerful tools to do so. If anything, it’s always been the accent that throws people off, and she’s received quite a few questions over it.

She’s given about four or five different answers about it, none of them really that verifiable. 

Any falters might come down to surprise, and usually, it takes her a moment to get her words back together if she’s thrown off. Her speech is often like a rhythm, and when that stops, it takes a while to get back to the same complexity.

As for chief tension areas, I definitely think a big point would be her feet. It’s a big part of her work, being able to climb, jump, get from one point to another. I think perhaps her shoulders as well— that more stress-related.]

[Ohhh this is actually a really cool question. It’s a bit of a shame that initially Kasumi would definitely be selfish with her desires. If maybe the genie showed up right in the middle of the battlefield, she’d wish for a dead reaper race.

I also spent a lot of time debating whether or not she would wish Keiji back. Some of this comes from her desire to see him again, but also the idea that she offers her partner— her best friend at the time— could still have a chance to live his life again.

However, I’m not sure she could bring herself to do it. A lot of it would come from her development inside this blog. She’d see it as a betrayal to her own words and to the people she’s grown to care about it— as its a sign that she’s never really moved on at all.

Mainly, what I could see her looking at is finding some way to give herself more power, some advantage that she can use to maintain her rank as the best thief. Part of this, I could see, is pushing for more knowledge, and intelligence, or something that would be impossible to get otherwise— perhaps teleportation or being able to phase through walls.

Her second wish would involve protection. Some sort of way to keep herself alive, to be able to keep fighting despite it all. Whether this is through some sort of ‘soft’-immortality or something a little more mystical.

I think the only selflessness would come with the same protection applied to the people she cares about most: particularly involving the Normandy. More than anything, Kasumi is afraid of death, either of herself, or the death of isolation as well.]
