Doomed Intentions vs. Slaughter the Scout

A topic from AEG's L5R CCG Rules forum, copied for Oracle of the Void from a copy of the forum saved in October 2015, so pages it didn't save are missing. Players' names are left out; the rules officials are named. Rulings are as they stood on these dates; later rulings, the rulebooks and the Rules Archive may differ.

I attack. My opponent uses Doomed Intentions to move-in a defender. I react to the movement with Slaughter the Scout.

Question is, at what point is the StS Reaction played?

After movement, before straightening? Or after movement and straightening, before the additional action?

After the movement is the trigger on Slaughter the Scout. It would be before the Personality straightens.
