V. Important Requests

[flickerflash]

Who: Katie and anyone
Broadcast: Fleet
Action: The Vanquish if you want
When: 10 Feb

Dear Atrama,

Can we please visit a planet with beaches next? I keep meeting people who haven't seen one and that's terrible. It's actually a crime where I come from.
Please don't let anyone get arrested.
I believe in you.

Also if you take requests can I have my cat please. And some chalk and I was meant to have a sword I think I could be wrong. It's a short silver gold magical
IT'S A LIGHTSABER
A RED ONE
Either that or just give me Mihawks.

[GO BIG OR GO HOME]

Please thank you love Dorothy.

[This has been a totally efficient use of your communicator, Katie, gj.]

Comments

[huaaaaagh]

good try! make some faces :D

a blizzard in the station??

[flickerflash]

[Oh that's an easier face!]

:D :D :D :) :(?

Rogue said all our money was frozen so I guess that's what happened. [Clay did actually, but you know. Liar liar.]

[huaaaaagh]

ohhh i understand

frozen is

[crap what is that word. His English is still so shoddy.]

it is not literal. it has been locked up

[flickerflash]

[Bahaha, she knows. But the idea of frozen money is so amusing to her.]

I like my version better

:P

[LEARNING]

When it's not locked up would you make me a lightsaber? You can have all of it!!

[huaaaaagh]

[HE

IS REALLY REALLY WARY OF GIVING A CHILD A LASER SWORD, OH GOD

why did he not keep his mouth shut]

um

do you have a parent or guardian here

[flickerflash]

Only everyone ever apparently

[The amount of people going ssh child at her over swords, gosh]

I'm a knight!! Knights need swords. Would you like me to show you I can use one?

[huaaaaagh]

[look. LOOK. you seem to be small and squishy and people will worry, okay]

I

that might make me feel better yes

[flickerflash]

You don't have a spare sword or a knife or a stick, do you?

[She gets the worry but gosh, she's had an interesting year of playing tag with the devil and literally being torn apart and put back together again. It feels weird people would worry about sharp and pointy things now!]

[huaaaaagh]

[he is really going to regret this later]

I've got one, yeah

[BUT

IT'S HIS...]

[flickerflash]

Is it your size or my size?

[You might get let off the hook for that one. She can always find a stick the right size, really.]

[huaaaaagh]

[ah...haha... yeah, that's the problem.]

honestly it's a little heavy for even me

[flickerflash]

Why are you using such a heavy sword, then? Put some feathers on it.

[Clearly the optimal solution.

...wonder if the kitchen has a knife she can borrow.]

[huaaaaagh]

It was a gift, sorry

[flickerflash]

oh well that's fair. If someone gave me a gift like that I'd use it too! Probably

I'll see if I can borrow something!

[huaaaaagh]

maybe we could find a good stick at the park?

[flickerflash]

Oh that's a good idea! And then I can visit the park again it's really nice. Do you want to meet me down there?

[huaaaaagh]

yeah let's do that

[Sword shenanigans in a public place WHAT COULD GO WRONG]

[flickerflash]

[And then Kirito was arrested for apparently threatening a small child.]

I will meet you!!

[Annnd she's gone. Hope you're okay with 'straight away'.]

[huaaaaagh]

[that would line up with his usual luck, anyway.

But! He'll be wandering into the closest park a very short while later, hands in his pockets, a little silver gun tucked into a holster at his belt, half-hidden under his jacket. He's looking around for her.]

[flickerflash]

[Katie can be found under the trees, where she was first looking for any fallen twigs or sticks remotely resembling the right length but got sort of sidetracked kicking leaves up into the air instead. She does have one branch that's a bit crooked in hand, but she can probably do better.

I'm sorry I'm easily distracted.]

[huaaaaagh]

[Pfft. Well, at least she's having fun, right?

One should never approach a swordsman from behind without fair warning, whether they're armed with a real blade or not, so when he gets close enough, he calls out.]

Hey, Dorothy.

[flickerflash]

[She looks up sharply, only about two seconds later because it takes her a moment for 'Dorothy' to process followed by oh yeah that's me.]

I found one! ...sort of. [She waves her stick doubtfully (and shakes the leaves off her shoe.)] You might have better luck.

[huaaaaagh]

[He tilts his head, looking the stick up and down, then shrugs his shoulders.]

Sure, I can look for something. Have you got any techniques you want to show off?

[flickerflash]

I don't know. I haven't got any special techniques I have to call the name of or anything. [Because cartoons, what.] I just swing it and it does what I want it to.

[huaaaaagh]

[What, blasphemy.]

That's usually how swords work. But sometimes a good technique name can pump you up in a big fight!

[Excuse him while he starts trying to climb the nearest tree to get himself a good branch.]
