CELEBRATING LEAVING A COMMUNITY IDEFK?
[ So if you don't remember this Luke, it's okay. He's the one with the shotgun and the wings. ]
[ He's also poking around a building that he found his way into. And what else would that building be but an arcade? Dragon Buster's getting its exercise right now. ]
DIE! [ TaptaptaptapSMASHyank. Some things never change. ]
[ Feel free to bug Flame while he's gaming, but he's kind of absorbed in it right now. It might take you a few pokes. ]

JUST LIKE IN THE EXTREME VIDEO FAIL.
GAAAH! Annoying creepy bastard colonel!][ Is not! Though they could provide endless hours of entertainment for anyone foolish enough to stop by and watch their derpery. aksldfj HE SEES WHAT YOU'RE DOING THERE, YOU JERK! Distractions are Prism's worst enemy. ]
Wha-- hey, that's cheating! [ BUTTON BUTTON STICK STICK STICK. Now that he knows how to do the spiffy grapple move, he's going to try it out before his character gets offed. Hopefully. TAKE THAAAAAAT! ]
what? what video where
NO! [ And as the game declares Prism the winner, Flame just kicked the machine in retaliation, wings flap-flapping in rage. ] That wasn't fair at all!
[ FUMEFUMEFUME. ... Pout. Folds arms. ] Fine. Good game... uh, me.
UH. you reminded me of some kind of lulzy video on youtube about a fictitious energy drink.
Yeah! I WON! [ So ecstatic that he managed to pull that out his ass, he jumps up and down, whooping and hollering for all to hear in a ten-mile radius. ]
Heheh... It was just luck, you know. I don't get how I beat you. [ Offers Flame a handshake, since a hug would be weird. ] Thanks. You did great too.
... Well, I knew that. I was going for that. I didn't get what you were saying. 8|;;;
[ But he's over it rather quickly. It WAS just a game, and neither of them really knew how to play. He shook Prism's hand. ... Yeah, a hug would be a little awkward. ] I'll beat you next time, though! [ Lopsided grin. ] So, c'mon. I was going to show you Rudia. [ And before Prism can fully enjoy his victolly, Flame's already at the door and gesturing for him to follow. Wanna shoot something for real, Prism? B) ]
IT'S OKAY, I HAVE NO IDEA BY THIS POINT ANYWAY! \8U/
[ And they had fun, right? That's all that really mattered in the end! ] Not if I keep practicing, you won't! [ Friendly video game rivalry is a-go! Right out the window once Prism remembers the spiffy-looking firearm that had been pointed at his skull. It was scary from that end, but so freaking. cool. from over here. Right behind you, Flame, with all the energy and enthusiasm of chihuahua puppy on soda! ]
You bet!
Like you ever do.
[ ... Yeah, okay. ] I'll be practicing, too! [ He's just grinning and taking him out to a mostly open field with a few trees. Rudia IS so. freaking. cool. He lowered it from his shoulder and held it in one hand. ] I bet you've never held a gun, have you? I know I didn't when I was on Auldrant...
It's like this. [ Though he normally shoots one-handed to be quicker and more agile, he shows him how to hold it against his shoulder and aim through the sight before handing it to him to try. ] And be careful, there's a kickback after you fire. Keep a grip on it. That tree over there is good enough for a target. [ Point. Smile! ]
on rare occasions
Next time it'll be an even better match! [ Once they're outside, he's all ears and listening intently, answering Flame's question with a quick shake of his head. No way was he going to miss out on the instructions after all the trouble not paying attention had gotten him into. ] "Kickback"? Like after an explosion? ...if Legretta wields TWO firearms at the same time, that must make her some kind of gunning nightmare...!
[ That last part was mumbled more to himself as he took the weapon with both hands and fumbled to heft it up to the right height for aiming. Though after a moment he glances between Rudia to Flame a couple times, biting his lip in trepidation. ] You sure it's okay for me to give it a whirl? It seems kinda.. special.
uh huh
[ Flame blinked and grinned at that, clapping him on the back. ] You bet!
Just keep a good grip on it, that's all. [ He caught the part about Legretta and smiled. ] She wouldn't have as much because the guns were small caliber. Rudia's a shotgun, so there's more power to her.
[ He nodded and folded his arms. ] Go ahead. It should be okay since you're... well, me. Rudia's what you call an ARM, and different ones work better with different people. It's hard to explain and I'm not really sure how it works. But c'mon! [ Typical Luke. Flame's just as excited as you are, Prism. :|b ]
ayup
Ah, I think Tear said something similar once about types of guns being classified by their bullet size. [ Prism let out a little "Oof!" at the pat and offered Flame a still uncertain grin, lifting the gun for another practice aim. Swords would always be he favorite weapon, but firearms were pretty spiffy too in their own way. ]
Not sure I'm following with the whole "ARM" bit, but what else is new, huh?
[ It was like the blind leading the blind when two Lukes were involved. Prism took aim as he tucked Rudia securely against a shoulder, taking a deep breath and holding it as he pulled the trigger. The subsequent explosion sent him reeling backwards right onto to butt, though Prism was too busy flinching to care. Th-that was scary... ]
8|;;;
[ He just smiled and kept an eye on him, then watched as he fell backwards, laughing. ] Wow, that brings back memories... [ He held out his hand to help him up, smiling. ] The same thing happened to me the first time. You have a good shot, though! [ He's pointing to the tree Prism shot at, which is riddled with holes. ]
Where I'm from, everyone uses a gun, so my sword's not the best thing to use.
8Bb
[ Sh-shut up, us! It wouldn't have been funny had a rock or something been there! ...though Prism starts laughing too once the shock has subsided, and scrambles to his feet with Flame's help. ] ...I wasn't expecting it to pack that much of punch! And I thought I braced myself pretty well, too.
[ Once upright and steady, he offers Rudia back to Flame before darting over to check out the damage, feeling the scarred bark with his fingers. ] Woah...
Re: 8Bb
[ Oh, it was funny, all right. He just smiled brightly at him. ] Yup! Rudia's come in handy several times... [ We won't be talking about all the countless bounty hunters he's had to kill just to keep himself from being taken in as an experiment. ]
[ He walked over with Prism, humming and petting the barrel of his ARM. ] Yeah... Others on Filgaia have similar weapons. I would've been dead already if I'd stuck with my sword. [ Though he does still have it strapped to his back. He lifted Rudia with one arm, aiming towards another tree not too far off and pulling the trigger, all in the manner of a second. BAM. The kickback barely affected Flame, only jolting his arm a bit, considering he was shooting with only his left arm. Someone's gotten a considerable amount of practice. ]
no subject
[ Le sigh. He was getting used to falling on his ass a lot around here. This was just par for course. Prism glanced at his double right as the second shot went off, making him instinctively flinch again from the sheer force Rudia created. He waited until the ringing in his ears had subsided before replying. ] ...I bet it has. If we ended up in opposite places, I doubt I'd have been able to pick up another weapon so quick. You're really something else! [ Can you feel the adoration yet, Flame? Little brother eyes like yeeeeah~ ♥ ]
Do you know how to use any other weapons? What's this world like? Did you make any friends there?
no subject
[ Aww, poor Luke. Flame hefted the shotgun back over his shoulder, glancing back at him and grinning. ] Yeah, you would. You're me. [ Nope, not yet. He's too much of a derp. Little brother wat. ... ♥ ]
[ Whoa, whoa, whoa. Slow down, there. 8|;;; Flame just blinked at the questions and laughed sheepishly. ] Geez, it wasn't that interesting... I don't know how to use anything except my sword and Rudia. Filgaia's like a desert... I think I made more enemies than friends. [ He curled his wings closer to his back as if self-conscious about them -- which he was, but still. ]
