Bio
I'm the guy who knows every last fact about Spider-man and if I don't I'll track it down. I love bad movies, enjoy table-top gaming, and probably would drive you crazy if you weren't ready for it.

This meant that he may as well have been half octopus: The barmaids were doing their best to avoid the teenager, but no matter which way the barmaid approached him his hand ended up on her buttocks. Although his attention had been sort of fun earlier, as the evening grew older and he grew drunker, the attention became less fun.

Sparrow on a Plank Chapter 7: One Sparrow Down
The temple was dark. Not just dark in the sense that they couldn't see, but dark in the sense that even with Hajime's summoned ball of light they had problems seeing what was in the inner sanctum. Hajime thought that it may have been because of some sorcerous darkness, but then he just realized it was because of the walls painted black and the dust in the air. Sal debated leaving behind the address of some decorators for the cultists, but then realized that they probably would get free decorating by virtue of killing the decorators after the job.

Tattoos & Rail Guns Chapter 7: Kev Undergoes Some Changes
The receptionist watched Kev go down the hall. Well, Sharness in the form of the receptionist. She had met with the receptionist the night before, drugged her, and assumed her form.

After a night or two, Hajime was sleeping alone in his berth and the pair started going to bed earlier each night. Although they kept the romance chaste above decks and limited their contact to their fencing, verbal, and swords, it didn't take a genius to figure out that they were enjoying a shipboard romance below decks.
