Second Wind

[bantorain]

-Virginia's near the outskirts of town. She figured doing this in either the neighborhood, uptown, or downtown would get her in trouble with the drones. So instead she's taken to going a bit out of her way.

What is she doing? Well that's simple. Gun practice.

Specifically, fast drawing both of her pistols on targets placed throughout the terrain (old food cans). After a few shots (they seem to go by in less than a second), she tosses the guns into the air, and in an even faster motion, manages to reload them after tossing a clip's worth of bullets up after them and a swift motion of her arm. In another blink, she fires again (was that four shots or five? Who can tell?), knocking out the last of the targets. Her shooting stance seems to shift the whole time, making it nearly impossible to tell where her body will be positioned on the next shot.

Of course, once all the targests are hit, she can only sigh.-

Still not as good as daddy was...

You're a mechanic? Neat!

[mymic.livejournal.com]

You think so? I can't say I would entirely know how to fix something found in this world, but I imagine I could make it workable again.

[rapier-ex.livejournal.com]

Something like those automobiles I see around?

[mymic.livejournal.com]

They might not be too terribly different than what I'm used to working on, sure.

_{[And they reach Marivel's house]}

Oh, here we are.

[rapier-ex.livejournal.com]

All of the houses really do look the same around here...

I'm not the only one with lj trouble tonight am I

[mymic.livejournal.com]

Yeah, which is why it probably helps to pay attention to house numbers.

_{[Opens the door for Virginia, allowing her to enter first]}

Everyone is getting trouble

[rapier-ex.livejournal.com]

Definitely. -Virginia makes her way in with a smile.-

o okay good to know it's not just me

[mymic.livejournal.com]

_{[And Marivel follows in after her, closing the door behind her.]}

Certainly, they could stand to make it easier, though, but I suppose that'd be making it too easy.

[rapier-ex.livejournal.com]

They could at least give us a bit more greenery to work with besides this.

[mymic.livejournal.com]

Perhaps someone should work on planting more, though it's beyond me as to who would be the go-to person for that.

_{[Sets about making tea.]}

As for myself...being human certainly is new. I'm thankful my "mother" in this town is supportive, though.

[rapier-ex.livejournal.com]

Well I know a few things about flowers. Both from experience and working with a friend of mine named Florina.

[mymic.livejournal.com]

Really? There might be a flower shop around here, perhaps.

_{[And there's now two cups of tea set on the table]}

Did you want any sugar with your tea?

[rapier-ex.livejournal.com]

Yes, please.

And between you and me, the woman who works at the flower shop is a little frightening. I think she said her name was Yuuka...

_{[Passes over the sugar bowl.]}

While I suppose not everyone who works with flowers is a friendly person, I do wonder why such a person would be working there, if so...

[rapier-ex.livejournal.com]

Maybe she just really likes flowers.
