[Today, Becca is Doing Things. She's out being a player, approaching any unattached weapons to offer to be their player. She's going to her classes. Or possibly she's just sitting around somewhere drawing in her notebook with an air of 'come talk to me' about her. Or perhaps you have a better idea for how to get her talking to your character. Just come bother her.]

[Alex smiles and pulls himself a bit closer.] W-well, I have dual w-wielding now, so, whoever you g-get, it'll b-be hard to loose if you use b-both!

[He might not be the most useful on his own, but with another weapon it would be hard to break down his defenses.]

[pencilpremonition]

[headshake]

No way. I'm not risking you.

[afraid_of_my_shadow]

[Alex pouts a bit, though he really doesn't mind at all.] Fiiine.

B-But I have another idea. W-wanna ch-cheat the s-system a bit? You c-can keep discarding a-and vowing with m-me ta get raks!

[pencilpremonition]

[She chuckled wickedly, nodding her head eagerly and shifting to look at him seriously.]

Let's see if I can remember how discarding works...

'I discard you'?

[afraid_of_my_shadow]

[Alex smiles back. He knew the command, if only because he had read the manual many times over, and there was nothing even hinting that this could not be done.] It would be, "d-discard Unus Mundus". Y-You haveta use m-my weapon name.

[pencilpremonition]

Discard Unus Mundus.

[waiting a few seconds, then...]

Alex, I swear to protect you and defend you, will you be my weapon~?

[afraid_of_my_shadow]

Of course! [And that meant Becca just earned another five.] W-we should split what w-we get. I h-have ta pay back Recette for th-things.

[pencilpremonition]

Yeah, I figured that was the plan. No worries.

[insert a LOT of discarding and vowing here?]

[afraid_of_my_shadow]

[Manylots of discarding and vowing.

After a while it gets pretty boring, after all, and Alex is just ever so slightly less enthusiastic.]

[pencilpremonition]

[Muchly the same.]

Ugh...how much do we even have now?

[afraid_of_my_shadow]

... I-I dunno. Should we c-count?

[pencilpremonition]

[pulls out her PDA to check her balance]

I've got a hundred and fifty in there, and I'm pretty sure I was broke before we started. Want to split it and call it good?

[afraid_of_my_shadow]

[Alex smiles and nods. That was quite the haul.] S-sounds good! M-maybe we should d-do this a few times whenever one of us is a p-player!

[pencilpremonition]

Yeah. And I'm sure we could get Shion in on it too.

[afraid_of_my_shadow]

I c-can stop being broke all the t-time!

[pencilpremonition]

You could save better.

[afraid_of_my_shadow]

W-well! It was c-cause I bought all those p-party supplies!

[pencilpremonition]

I know, I'm teasing.

[afraid_of_my_shadow]

[Actually, he can really suck with saving. So he is still rather flustered.] W-well, at least I c-can pay Recette back n-now.

[pencilpremonition]

That's great! Maybe after we're done being bored of this, we can get some more before the week's over.

[afraid_of_my_shadow]

[Alex had to puzzle over the wording for a moment, but he got it and laughed,] Yeah!

[pencilpremonition]

It'll be nice being rich~.

[afraid_of_my_shadow]

I-It'll be a first!
