stagscrew05: hey what's up? I am ray 23/m/de here asking for your help with a role playing scenario i am working on for class

damyano: um, okay

stagscrew05: it's nothing sexual or perverse

damyano: k'

stagscrew05: ok basically I set up a scenario for you and then ask questions and formulate a story

damyano: k

stagscrew05: ok here's the scenario

stagscrew05: I am 5'11" 195 lbs. wear cammo pants black combat boots olive green mid-calf socks and black t-shirt

stagscrew05: I am an investigator for a community organization

damyano: alright

stagscrew05: you are the muscle for a businessman I am investigating... you are my nemesis

damyano: k

stagscrew05: I arrive at the office to question and snoop around

stagscrew05: you are waiting for me

damyano: k

stagscrew05: do you see me park outside or see me walking towards the door?

damyano: as I am the muscle chances are I'd see you walking towards the door. if the guy I'm working for has decent security I know you're coming before you're visible

stagscrew05: ok I am looking for you and I pass your office where you are hiding

stagscrew05: and get to the stairs

stagscrew05: you come on and casually grab my leg to stop me

damyano: um, being muscle I doubt I'd hide

stagscrew05: humor me... you are the only guard and you do things your own way

damyano: k

stagscrew05: do you get my knee or calf?

damyano: grabbing someone by the leg is a combative gesture, as it could trip them. doesn't seem like a good idea to start out that way. a good security man wants to keep things clean, so I'd more likely grab your shoulder

stagscrew05: this is meant to be strange

damyano: okay

damyano: knee

stagscrew05: how are your hands positioned?

damyano: well since you passed me by, I must have grabbed from behind

stagscrew05: yes your door is near the stairs

stagscrew05: to my left

damyano: then your left knee, palm to the back of your knee

damyano: it should only take one hand to get your attention

stagscrew05: do you say "leg" or "got that leg"?

damyano: I doubt I'd say either

stagscrew05: what do you say/

damyano: "Where are you going?"

stagscrew05: I turn we have been through this before

stagscrew05: you pat me down

stagscrew05: I am facing you

stagscrew05: what do you say as you have me stretch out?

damyano: well, since you say we've been through this before. "Do you really think you can get by me?"

stagscrew05: where do you feet?

stagscrew05: feel*?

damyano: you're being patted down, so this is standard procedure - sides to front, pockets, down each leg.

stagscrew05: do you have me remove my boots?

damyano: well, as we've been through this before, do you seem the type that I would need to do that?

stagscrew05: yes

damyano: then yes

stagscrew05: you have me sit down and remove them

stagscrew05: you look in them

stagscrew05: do you pick up my leg to search the socks or leave my feet on the ground?

damyano: if I'm going to search your boots then I will search your socks as well

damyano: as well as hat and jacket

stagscrew05: do you pick up my leg?

damyano: that is a given, yes

stagscrew05: where do you grip to lift?

damyano: ankle and calf

stagscrew05: how are your hands positioned? (this scenario focuses on leg control)

damyano: as I said, one on ankle one on calf. I don't want you to get unruly

stagscrew05: yes but which hand is placed where and how is the hand positioned?

damyano: the hand towards your center is on the ankle, the hand towards your outside on the calf

damyano: the lower hand is more for control while the upper hand does the search

stagscrew05: what do you say as you lift the leg?

damyano: polite is best - "Please lift your leg, sir."

stagscrew05: how do you search the socks?

damyano: patting them down should be sufficient

stagscrew05: well describe the hand motions and process

damyano: honestly I couldn't. I don't work in security so I don't know how it is done properly. this sort of situation is generally taken as given in a role playing situation

stagscrew05: it is meant to be strange

stagscrew05: come on

damyano: I've given you my answer. sorry

stagscrew05: ok

stagscrew05: do the socks wrinkle or stay tight?

damyano: I would assume they wrinkle some unless they are very new

stagscrew05: ok from previous encounters you know I like my socks to stay tight and you wrinkle slightly to get to me

stagscrew05: where do you grip to wrinkle?

damyano: I'm not wrinkling them, rather they become wrinkled due to the process. it isn't my problem if you have issues, as you can straighten your socks yourself

damyano: it's all organic. I don't actually have to do it on my own

stagscrew05: ok

stagscrew05: that's all I need

stagscrew05: thank you for your help

damyano: k

damyano: no worries

stagscrew05: later

damyano: have a good one

Okay - What the hell was all that about?
