[Perks right up, tail swishing, it’s the reaction you’d get out of a cat if you shook the treat bag. And then see icon, pretty much!]

—You’ve got something? Seriously? What is it? Does it blow stuff up?

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

[Laughs at this reaction. Thoroughly pleased by it]

I can make something. Something that might help you sleep better at night than an AlcheME! potion anyway. And it seems you've gone and given away what kind of something that should be.

[purrrnicious]

[Cats don't wag their tails but if they did...]

Seriously? Is it a canon? An infantry bot? Oooohhh, or maybe a modified M202A-Stinger with a laser sight guidance system...

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

I don't have the last one where I'm from. You're going to have to explain it to me.

[purrrnicious]

. . .

It shoots rockets. Designed for a single soldier to carry.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

[Taps his chin thoughtfully]

You're really not one for concealable weapons, are you?

[purrrnicious]

I've got those already.

[Right now, on her person, even.]

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

I was thinking something more than knives, but--

It seems you're looking for something that can do actual property damage.

[purrrnicious]

Come on, quit dragging it out. Are you giving me something?

[TAILSWISH TAILSWISH TAILSWISH and actually does a quick circle around him before stopping in front again.]

What is it?

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

[Follows her with his eyes but otherwise doesn't turn his head]

All the guns available for purchase in the shop are antiques. I was seeing if they couldn't be upgraded with a bit of technomagic.

Which would lend itself to having someone with experience test it out.

[purrrnicious]

[Without even pausing to think about it:]

Sure, but I get to keep one.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

As long as you keep my name out of it.

How about we do this as a test run? And then we talk shop about your infantry bot. Might make a good doorman for your dorm.

[purrrnicious]

So it's safe to assume you're not planning on making an "experiment" Live out of this, huh?

Sounds good to me.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Oh, if you want a weapon with points attached - I'll make you a water gun that shoots glitter or sparklers or rainbows or some garbage like that.

Wouldn't want to upset the community too much.

[purrrnicious]

Nah, I'm good. Top secret's way more fun, anyway.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Exactly.

[And since I have only put the gun request in to the point shop yesterday]

So I'll let you know when I've created a suitable model. We can take it out to the outskirts of Tokyo-F to test it.

[purrrnicious]

Oh, sure, sure, wouldn't wanna alarm anyone.

[Though it would be really, really fun to!]

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

[Kohime, please. Trying to keep his name out of it, remember?]

And you wouldn't want them to know you have it until the last possible second.

[purrrnicious]

Wouldn’t wanna start an arms race.
