To not be seduced you should roll charisma + con. (and get 3 hits).
If you feel that your character behaves in a way that contradicts his nature - you can RP overcoming the temptation. Being seduced is just a guide line it does not force your hand into doing anything once or ever. It just means that you'll have an internal struggle if you play out of your emotion. (and take -2 dice pool to interactions as long as you do things out of your emotions).

Seeing as how I failed that test before I'm gonna assume that I'm still seduced.

Yes, but that just means what your character feels, but you are free to write him,  how ever you like.

I feel like this DemoX guy may have been followed. We're either gonna meet something unpleasant at the Boobie Trap or we're gonna find DemoX dead. Or maybe I'm just being paranoid.

Also, pretty cool seeing how two of the runs are connected. Can't wait to see where the third one goes.

I have a semi-related question, oh benevolent and wonderful GM.  Is seduction a knowledge skill or an active skill?  I didn't find it in the basic rules as an active skill and so considered it knowledge and have five ranks in it considering most of Minnie's life has been spent working between the sheets.  If it's an active skill it's going to upend my character since skills were my D priority and they're pretty tight.

In the book, Seduction is a specialization of the Con skill, which I assume is what's happening here. In your case, as long as you have points in Con, you should be able to do fine without the spec. In your case, you would probably have knowledge about seduction techniques. Not sure how that'll be ruled though.

Seduction is part of the con social skill - the one that makes you a good lair. To actually do seduction you need these skills.  Knowledge can also help in specific situations - for example it can be easier to impress someone if you are knowledgable about the things that someone feels strongly about.

Oh wow, there it is.  I didn't think to look under con.  Hmmm, now I have some shuffling to do.  :-\

Wanted to ask, as I'm in the middle of wrapping Matrix rules around my head.

How are we house-ruling non-wireless connections for technomancers? Or are we not doing that at all?

If you allow it I can switch perception to try to assense her.

Sure, roll intuition + assensing.
(with -2 due to background count, and -2 due to being drunk tough total of -4).

In time you'll just know what to roll everytime you want to use one of your skills and I can always take dice from the right if there negative modifiers.
