[ Knock-knock -

- or something like the creak of city gates of her wanting to reach out to anyone else in the hive that will respond. ]

( These ability we have aside from communication. I require a trainer for my own.

And a decent explanation of what they are and their pitfalls. I am not familiar with this kind of... magic. )

[ Yeah she can't think of another word for it. ]

Comments

[greentech]

( I thought he moved to America... )

[ She can't recall Tesla working for the British government. But it's been a while since she read up on him, honestly. ]

( Honestly, I don't know a lot about guns, either. )

[shri]

[ and in the way that she approaches her own lack of knowledge, she gives just the same. ]

( Would you like too? )

[ A tap of thought. ]

( I am not Tesla, but I know my way around the tools of my trade. )

[greentech]

( Uh, sure, I guess. I don't use them that often, but... learning would be handy? )

[ She's not sure. She's never really used one, but it might be good. Right? Even if she's reluctant to actually hurt some people. ]

[shri]

( More than handy. I was never fond of them, I prefer my shamsher or talwar. But a gun is a weapon of a truly modern world. It does not matter how big, strong or capable your opponent, a bullet to the heart is a bullet to the heart.

If that is not equality, I do not know what is. )

[ It's brutal - yes. But so is she. To that she can appreciate how it functions, the simplicity of the trigger that no more than a twitch of the lightest hand could bring down great warriors. ]

[greentech]

( Yeah. I mean... I don't usually use one, but some of my old teammates did. So... it'd probably be a good diea to actually learn. Even if it's not really something I want to do. )

[ She's killed Galra before. Guns just... aren't her thing, most of the time. ]

( It's definitely efficient, anyway. )

[shri]

( Certainly. It always a good thing to know at least something about every weapon at your disposal.

I never liked firearms, much. They were not how I was... raised. It was Tesla who showed me their beauty. )

[ A different place, perhaps. A warmer place for something that does something so cruel. She holds them in regards not so much for them - but for how Tesla himself viewed the world. ]

[greentech]

( They've never really been my thing either. I mostly use... uh. I guess it's a punching dagger? Or a whip. That shocks people.

It's pretty cool, honestly. )

[shri]

( ... Master a gun, and I will bring you a Urumi to train in next. )

[greentech]

( An urumi? What's that? )

[shri]

( A sword that is made to bend like a whip. )

[greentech]

( That sounds pretty awesome, actually. )

[shri]

( One of the greatest warriors of my people - Shivaji. He would wield two in battle. Truly he is awesome. )

[ Not quite to the younger woman's tone, she says it to how she knows it, to be filled with ae. ]

[greentech]

( I don't think I've ever heard of him... but that still sounds like it'd really cool to learn! I mean, I'm not bad with it right now, but getting better is always good. Right? )

[shri]

( Always. When we return to the... station, I would be more than glad to teach you it. )

[greentech]

( That would be great! I'm totally looking forward to it! )

[shri]

( I'll let you know, when the time presents itself. )
