What do you mean? Like a sword? I'm afraid I wouldn't know how to use one.

[hot4engines]

Oh, I ain't got any idea how to use a weapon to save my life, either. But there's gotta be someone on this fleet who does, unless they all went to check out that shipwreck.

[goodandtrue]

[This is a ridiculous question and she knows it, but she has to ask anyway. She can easily imagine her septa's response to the idea.]

Is it appropriate for women to use weapons in this world?

[hot4engines]

[She nodded, looking puzzled.]

Uh-huh... why wouldn't it be?

[goodandtrue]

It isn't where I am from. It's...not acceptable at all.

[hot4engines]

Now that ain't right at all. ... well, by my sensibilities it ain't, at least. Women in my world, well, they're soldiers and they work on ships... we even got Companions. They're all trained in all sorts of stuff- music and massage and dance [and S-E-X, but Kaylee knows not to potentially scandalize someone with that] and are afforded a lot of respect.

[goodandtrue]

[She doesn't need it spelled out for her to know what companions are. They're the same thing they are in her world, especially in King's Landing (according to the things her brother said).]

There are a lot of differences between our world.

[She doubted that she would ever feel comfortable with using weapons, but she could appreciate women that did.]

Will you show me around a bit more?

[hot4engines]

Mmhmm... sure are. But that's what makes this place interesting, too- we can all come together and find out what we have in common even if we're different.

Sure, let's go exploring! I ain't been on that Iskaulit yet- that's the big ship that gets dragged along behind us.

[ooc: Seem like an okay place to fade out?]

[Works for me! <3]
