seeking weapons @ fortitude forums

[koyo]

Hola,

I'm a Player this round and I'm looking for weapons. If you become my weapon I promise:

* All of your rights
* Three meals a day
* Hugs and kisses everyday

If you're interested, come find me at the Battle Arena. I'm heading there right now.




By the way, my name is Antonio.

I'm not sure how it works but it is impressive.

Hey, do you know what your weapon is, Dahlia?

[traces]

Ah... I believe it's a dagger. I'm not sure why, but I know that...

I purchased an upgrade for it yesterday, but I'm not sure what it does. [ She lifts her right hand to show him the ring on her third finger, with the faded teardrop symbol upon it. ]

[koyo]

( A dagger. Short and perhaps not the strongest weapon but easy to use and still effective. He can work with that. He leans closer to see the ring. )

If it's an upgrade it must be a good thing though, right? I'll have to read that book. . . ( Some day. Eventually. Tomorrow. ) Can I see your weapon?

[traces]

Yes, I think so.

Ah... A-all right. If you'd like to...

[koyo]

( Approaching her, trying not to seem intimidating. Because you know, drawing weapons from people's chests is only slightly awkward and not exactly normal. )

It shouldn't hurt but if it does, let me know, okay? ( And he places a hand to her chest to draw the weapon. )

[traces]

[ She winces and squeezes her eyes shut as the dagger appears from her chest. It doesn't hurt, but it does feel a little odd... ]

It--it feels weird...

[koyo]

( Spain feels odd and he isn't even the one having a knife pulled out of him. Once it's drawn, he holds it and turns it over in his hands, )

I'm sorry. How do you feel now? You don't need to rest now or anything, do you. . .

[traces]

[ She puts one hand to her chest and clenches her uniform top, looking down at the weapon in his hands. ]

N-no, it doesn't hurt or anything... It feels all right now.

[koyo]

That's good. . . Ah, I can't imagine it feeling normal at all. ( With his finger nail, he gives the blade a light tap. ) It's a pretty dagger, don't you think?

[traces]

Ack! [ She winces. Why does it hurt when he does that? Not too badly, but her Durability is low... ] Um... Y-yes! It's... The design is very beautiful...

[koyo]

( This might be a problem. He doesn't notice at all at first, too busy checking out the knife. He does, however, catch onto the change in tone, )

Is something wrong?

[traces]

It's just... I-I could feel it, Mr. Antonio. Wh-when you tapped the weapon with your finger.

[koyo]

. . . Really? ( Looking at Dahlia. And then the knife. Then Dahlia. Then back. And again. ) . . . How did it feel?

[traces]

...It... it hurt, just a little.

1/4

[koyo]

( It. . . )

[koyo]

It hurt?

[koyo]

( Wait, is that why Britannia-- )

[koyo]

( Think about Britannia later. Only Dahlia for now. )

I'm sorry!

[traces]

P-please don't be! You couldn't have known!

[ She doesn't care that he couldn't have known; if he pulls that again, he's going to regret it. If he causes her even the slightest amount of pain... ]

It... it wasn't that severe. I shouldn't be complaining, not after you were kind enough to accept me as your Weapon.

[koyo]

I'll be careful, I promise. ( But if they have to fight, how careful can he really be. ) No, no, I should thank you. . .

Ah, and that reminds me. As promised, you can have your rights and eat what you want. . .

[traces]

O-oh, that's right... I appreciate it very much, Mr. Antonio. If you could just... write me a permission slip, I suppose?

[koyo]

Huh? You want a note too. . . ? Sí, of course. ( After Britannia asked him earlier, he's come prepared this time around with pen and a small notepad. He begins to scrawl out a basic note along the lines of, "I, Antonio Fernandez-Carriedo give Dahlia permission to do as she pleases." As he writes he'll ask, ) Is there anything else i can do for you?

[traces]

Ah, no, sir. I can't think of anything else at all. Except... May I please have my weapon back?

[koyo]

( What. )

Oh! Right, sí, of course. Ah. . . ( How did he do this last time. Okay, okay, so he has to ~will it away~ so. . . brb, thinking very hard about sending the weapon back. It really isn't that hard to send it back but he has to make it complicated. )

[traces]

[ Huh. That didn't feel like anything at all. She puts a hand to her chest and looks downward. ]

This is all very unusual...
