[Looks at the arm and then back at Maki]

How did that even dettach? Do I want to know?

[rollplayinghouse]

...It happened pretty quickly, so I'm not entirely sure.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

You want me to keep it in the lab? It's not going to fit anyone but you.

[rollplayinghouse]

[looks down at the arm]

Hopefully I won't need it again... but I guess we could keep it just in case.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

[Then he'll just be taking that arm then!]

Have a seat where you like.

[rollplayinghouse]

Thanks.

[She holds up her thermos as she heads over to the table]

I brought some soup, too, if you're interested.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

[Inclines his head. Which isn’t a no.]

Stress cooking again?

[rollplayinghouse]

...Maybe a little. But after a game like that people are going to be tired, and I like being able to provide something nice. Even if it's simple.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

[Goes to grab some bowls for people who seem interested in soup.

Also shoving one of Silence's burgers into Maki's hands]

[rollplayinghouse]

[She blinks down at the burger in surprise for a few moments before taking a bite.]

Thanks.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Shine's favorite food. He's always trying to get the diner voted in.

[rollplayinghouse]

I see. The protein is probably good right now, anyway.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Let me see your arm.

[rollplayinghouse]

Ah? Are you worried?

[She transfers the burger to her right hand so she can hold out her left.

It appears to be intact, healed fully with no scars.]

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

[He grabs her wrist and extends it straight out, running two fingers along it to feel in fact that there is no scarring where it was lopped off]

Didn't know how the production would heal it.

Does it feel strange at all?

[rollplayinghouse]

...A little, but I think it's just kind of weird to have it after it being missing for a couple of days. As far as I can tell it's back to normal.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

[Drags the two fingers down the length of her arm to her palm, watching to make sure she can feel that touch]

It's not natural, that's for sure.

Pity all the knives we could have hid in your metal one.

[rollplayinghouse]

[Her fingers curl and her cheeks flush slightly.]

It is kind of a shame. I do think I prefer having my real arm, but... I was looking forward to it, a bit. All the weapons I could hide, and all the other things you could do with it.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

If you want fancy things to hide your weapons in, Maki, it doesn't have to be in your actual body.

[rollplayinghouse]

Oh, that's true. I could even have a gauntlet or bracer or something... did you have other ideas in mind?

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

I thought part of the assassin aesthetic was hidden blades in your shoes.

[rollplayinghouse]

I have a boot sheath already... You mean actually attached to the shoe, for kicking with blades? I don't know how practical that is in reality, but it could be fun to try out.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

If we're going completely for aesthetics---

What are your tallest heels?

[rollplayinghouse]

Hmm... Probably the shoes I wore with my masquerade dress? I might have some others that are taller including the platforms, but that's not the same aesthetic.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

No to the platforms.

If we're going to do this, let's have a little fun.
