Accidental video;

[You'll find this little girl peering through the shops with a bag in hand that's filled with dolls. Oddly enough, the dolls are still fully intact and she looks rather happy that they are. Though, that's not what she's really happy about. Not at all.

What she's more happy about are the weapons on display in the weapons shop. She never had a serious weapon. Just scissors and what not. So this would be the first time she'd hold a weapon of her very own.]

I wonder what I should use...

[Clearly too young to get a weapon on her own, but she'll try anyway.]

Comments

[She was clearly asking for opinions from random passersby and not just talking to herself out loud. Clearly.]

Use whatever you're most comfortable with. I use hammers, but that's what I was using before I came here.

[orchidmoon]

[CLEARLY.

Sorry bro, she might have jumped at the sudden voice behind her.]

I've never had a weapon before.

[theheirofbreath]

Oh, then you'll want something easy. Unless you have someone who can teach you.

[orchidmoon]

I don't think anyone would want to teach me.

What do you think will be easy?

[theheirofbreath]

No way, a lot of the people here are really nice. You should ask around. I bet you'd find a teacher in no time.

But otherwise your best option might be something blunt. That way at least you can't accidentally cut yourself.

[toomanypetals]

...You're looking at weapons? I didn't know you can fight.

/o/

[orchidmoon]

I can only use a pair of scissors. Does that count as fighting?

...dammit Ayako you make it easy to tag

[toomanypetals]

Not really. You shouldn't try a real weapon unless you can use it.

[He hesitates, then shrugs.]

You want me to teach you? It'll come with rules, though.

Of course.

[orchidmoon]

I can't. I wasn't allowed to use it.

[Cause you know. Those kind of tendencies.]

If you want to. I don't want to waste your time.

>P

[toomanypetals]

Not a waste of time if it means you won't try to teach yourself. I train every day anyway, so you might as well learn.

[Of course.]

Rules are pretty simple though-- you can't use your weapon to hurt other people unless they're trying to hurt you first, and you can't use it to threaten them either. Got it?

[spinoff]

[ If Minako is also looking at weapons, is more out of curiosity. And a need to feel safer during the Dark Hour. But when she sees the other girl she waves in a friendly way. ]

I thought it would be weird if I looked for weapons, but apparently you had the same idea?

[orchidmoon]

[Slightly jumping at the sudden voice behind her. She wasn't expecting anyone to be watching her, though she figured it'd be kind of strange since she was looking at weapons by herself.

With a crooked smile, she turned her head and looked at Minako.]

I want to be able to protect myself during the dark hour.

[spinoff]

Ah, I'm sorry. I'm Minako, nice to meet you.

[ She didn't want to startle her but that can't be helped now. ]

And I had the same idea.

[orchidmoon]

I'm Ayako. [Have... A hug to your hip, if you so welcome it, Minako!]

Wanna go shopping together then?

[spinoff]

[ Whoa, so...close. But she's going to pat Ayako's back anyway. ]

Okay, I think it would me more fun this way.

[knightking]

[Just happening to pass by when SUDDENLY SPOTS HER!!]

What you should use? [Looking at what she's looking at... wait weapons. (BAH)] As in a weapon?

[orchidmoon]

[o hai there]

Yeah. I don't think a pair of scissors will do me much good fighting shadows... ,i>[This is happening. This is really happening.]

[knightking]

I guess that's true, but... [Oh god no WHY IS THIS HAPPENING SOMEONE STOP IT.] In the first place, do you know how to use any other sort of weapon?

[orchidmoon]

[U SCARED BRO?]

No... I figured I could learn on my own. Or Kanda can teach me, I think. I just want to be prepared to kill them.

[knightking]

[Partly scared and partly CHILDREN FIGHTING UNSURE!!]

It's probably safer to just stay inside during that time though. There's no reason to head out into danger, is there?

[rocker]

[ Is this.. really a good thing.. David is all for rational decisions and giving a little girl a weapon doesn't seem to fall in the category of 'rational decisions'. :| So he should do something.. ]

Are you looking at those weapons? [ He approaches, trying to seem a bit reassuring, but, well, forever lineface and all, he can't help it. ]

[orchidmoon]

[What's the worst that could happen! It's just a weapon. A very... sharp... weapon. Er.]

Yeah, I am. I want to protect myself. [What's with that lineface bro!]

[rocker]

[ FOREVER LINEFACE. ]

For someone your age, it is much better to be protected, so that you may not get harmed. [ fighting is dangerous, after all..!! but at least he's being.. polite, despite the lineface? ] ... If you ever require help, feel free to call me instead.

[orchidmoon]

[NO.

Making a face again. One that twists into a smile, but it's a frown in a way as well.]

I don't know who you are. What's your name?

[rocker]

... Archer. [ That's his title, at least, so that only flows out more easily. ]

Although that might bring some problems with it.. Do you know any other persons called that way already?
