Hey anyone know anything about guns? Like, safety, handling, shooting them?

Not- shooting anyone at the school. I just- I don't have magic so I figured it might be good next time something crazy happens.

*She'll just- sigh as she considers the words she just said.*

Which could be tomorrow given the way the school usually goes. Hey, are there magic guns, like, ones that do spells instead of just firing bullets? But I guess that's getting ahead of myself. I don't really know if I can feel comfortable handling a gun...

You said a bunch of numbers that I'm sure mean something if I knew more about guns than I do. But I'll take this to mean don't start with a rocket launcher.

*She's not American either. She thought a gun with a bang flag in it was a BB gun once.*

Why, Certainly! If you'd like, I could easily give you a course on handling and safety, as well as shooting. If you'd like, we could use blanks instead of live ammunition at first.

[lastexit]

That'd definitely help, at least to get me started.

I'm guessing blanks are the thing until I'm trying to actually shoot at a target, right?

[hatesdeerstalkers]

Yes - Live ammunition isn't the greatest of ideas for a beginner, though I will be training you as if you have live ammunition - the sooner you learn proper safety habits, the better.

Once you have the safety down, we can then move onto maintenance, and then shooting. After all, guns can be quite complicated, and in the heat of battle, you'll need to know how to reduce the chances of a jam or accidental firing.

[lastexit]

...I know how to be careful with dangerous items.

So, it's like stringing and tuning an instrument before learning to play it?

[onebetter]

True. I bet people down at the Anvil already have like five different solutions ready just by default anyway. Supernatural weapons are their livelihood and all.

[lastexit]

'I need a gun that shoots magic.' is four different things I never thought I'd be asking for.

*But here she was, trying her best to help save the world. Like some sucker.*

[betheman]

[MAYA!!!]

AUH-

That is definitely the best way to begin training for blade work... I, the man Gongenzaka, cannot deny the latter either...

[Throwing people twice her size will probably Also be very therapeutic, at least.]

[onebetter]

Okay, I'll bite. Gun and magic are two, what's the other two things?

[lastexit]

My sister is good at throwing people twice her size, that was never really my thing.

I can try though...

[lastexit]

Guns that shoot magic, and that I need any of this.

I'm a cellist!

[shockingblue]

[Gunvolt laughs a bit in return to that.]

Yeah, that's not a great idea. Definitely want to go with something a little less dangerous than a rocket launcher. They're pretty fun, though.

And don't worry, if you want me to teach you, the numbers will start making more sense with a little hands on experience.

[onebetter]

... I hate that my first thought to this was 'well, you could probably magically modify a cello for combat.'

[ He sighs deeply. ]

God, we've been here too long.

[betheman]

I am glad to hear that then..!

Auh...though, we should compare our schedules, in that case, so that we can find a proper time to meet for this then...

[New year, new schedule he supposes...]

[lastexit]

So I'll learn like how I eventually learned to read sheet music.

Eventually after a lot of other more practical things.

[lastexit]

I'll know more about my schedule when I figure out when I'm learning how to use a gun.

Fortunately all my practices with my cello and harp are whenever I want, so we can make this work.

[lastexit]

Anyone touches my Cello I'll follow them around keeping them in absolute silence for a month.

...We've definitely been here too long.

[betheman]

[He wonders, so much, what kind of gun she's learning to use. It really could be anything in this place.] Hmn!

I myself, do not have too many extra curricular studies this year...though that is partly due to council duties...

Regardless, it should be simple enough.

[onebetter]

Let's rephrase it positively: we've adjusted well to our campus experience.

... yeah.

[lastexit]

I guess getting used to this is better than the alternatives...

*As all the alternatives are bad.*

[lastexit]

Student council is probably more than enough given this nonsense school.

We can figure it out back at the dorm. When I have all my schedule in front of me and can touch my phone.

*Maya's uses speakerphone because she's less likely to mute the call on accident.*

[onebetter]

You're turning into a regular optimist.

[betheman]

It is certainly a handful...

But yes! We shall speak there, then.

[hatesdeerstalkers]

You'd be surprised how careless one can be with a gun without thinking.

And yes, a bit - it shouldn't take long, however.

[lastexit]

I wouldn't.

Good a place to start as any.
