That is sort of our deal.

Tell me a little about yourself, then.

Uhhh. Where to start... Well, you saw the name the program gave me. I dunno about the god part, but the war part is pretty spot on. Judging by my memories, I've led my way through my share of battles. Past that... I guess I'm mostly just... friendly? I get called dumb a lot, but I just like people, honestly. An' I love swimming and surfing.

How does being friendly and liking people work with the war part?

I mean, they're hardly mutually exclusive? My men were basically my family.

...

[whoops that apparently hit a sore point for her. she looks grim again]

I see.

[tips his head.]

...But we were mercenaries, anyway, so there wasn't a lot of investment in the emotional side of the fights.

You okay?

I'm fine.

A mercenary, huh...

Yeah. Jaegers, but most people 'round here don't really know what that means like where I'm from. I don't remember much, though.

Mm. I've never heard of it.

We've got a hitman and an assassin and a devil hunter, but I think most of us are more used to working alone. Sabre might be the only one who had something like an army. She bought a tank, the other day.

[whistles.]

That must've been pretty expensive.

Only five thousand points.

So what's a jaeger...?

Five? Not fifty or somethin'?

Pretty much what I just said. Mercenary.

Yeah. It didn't come with weaponry, but it didn't cost any more than a fancy car.

Anyway... maybe the name of another weapon...?

Oh, guess it makes sense when it's put like that.

Like Sabre and Blade?

Yeah. Do you you remember what you usually used?

Uhhh, not sure what the name for the type of weapon it was is, but the weapon itself was named Berserker. It was uhh, kind of a gun and a sword all at once? A gunpowder weapon too, instead of orbal.

[raises his hand to indicate size and it was like. the size of her.]

[she doesn't seem to find this particularly strange]

I don't know what orbal is either.

Hmm... Have you heard of the fire lance? It was one of the earliest gunpowder weapons, in China. "Fire☆Lance" could be a pretty good name.

Or if you wanted something closer to what you already have, you could go a different direction with something like "Grand Marksman."

I dunno where to even start explaining orbal power...

[hums, thoughtfully.]

Nah, if I'm going for a new name, the whole thing bein' new feels right. And Fire☆Lance sounds super cool.
