14th Shot [Video: Late Night/Early morning]

[singinghuntress]

 Recently, I've acquired a razher beautiful gun from a friend~. I've been dying to try it out und I zhink tonight might just be perfect.

[When Rip comes into view she has this beautiful musket resting across her shoulders. She gently slips it into her arms and effortlessly loads the powder and shot with  ease. While doing so, she's humming gently before hefting it up and aiming at a target stuck to a tree with a knife. From the looks of it, Rip miiight just be somewhere in the Everglade. She kept humming to herself as she raised the gun, holding it with one hand as she braces her body and then fires.

A loud crack echoes through the trees as she just grins as the shot hits the target dead center and punches through the tree. That very same bullet arcs around to keep punching holes into the very same tree and zig zagging around the little grove Rip was in while she is giggling with delight. Now this.. THIS is exactly what she'd been missing! 

By the time the bullet finally stops, several trees near her might have various bullet holes in them and there might... be a few dead squirrels or other small creatures on the ground. All from one bullet.]

It's about time I had a decent gun again. Zhe Huntress has her veapon back~. 

[She just smirks into the camera before leaning in and turning it off.]

Oh great. Just what you need....a gun.

[You can hear that sarcasm rolling off thick.]

Re: Private

[singinghuntress]

[Yes, she hears that dripping sarcasm and rolls her eyes.]

It vas only a matter of time und you know it. Now I can really hunt again.

Re: Private

[justabitunlikely]

Just because I know doesn't mean I think it's a good idea for you to have one. As long as you stay away from the people I care about and myself, we're golden.

[singinghuntress]

Don't vorry, just because I haf a gun again doesn't mean I'm breaking our little truce.

It just means I get to haf my kind of fun again. Vithin reason of course.

[ D comes onto view, his message starts for about a minute of silence, of him just staring..... and then he finally speaks up. ]

That is a beautiful gun. Who is this friend of yours?

Re: v i d e o ;

[singinghuntress]

[She was wondering if he was going to speak.]

Soma Cruz, he just inherited zhe shop Cloak und Dagger. He made it for me az a late birthday present.

[And it's not hard to tell she absolutely loves the gun.]

Re: v i d e o ;

[v_hunter_d]

[ He may need to visit this shop. ]

Congratulations, on both your gift and your day of birth.

So shooting trees is a normal thing?

[redcinemareel]

Darling, I had no idea you didn't have one all this time! I would've bought you one ages ago! [Looks at the gun with more attention.] It is a lovely gift, and I see you not lost your skills.

[singinghuntress]

[She grinned as she caresses the gun resting against her shoulder.]

I lost mine avhile back before arriving here und besides, I didn't start looking for a new musket until recently zo how could you haf known~.

[Rip might.. be practically snuggling the gun. Don't mind her. ]

I vasn't expecting zhe gift, Soma surprised me vith it~. Und I'm happy my skills are az sharp az ever~.

[PRIVATE]

It makes taking out targets much easier.

[redcinemareel]

Very true. Well, I know what I can get for your next gift, at least. [Private] Oh, there are a few targets you can practice on~! [Grins]

[om_nom_namur]

[Namur is being a layabout after their night shift, arms cushioning his head as he leans against the base of a tree. Several of her bullet holes puncture the wood just above his head. That didn't bother him, really. He trusts Rip to know what she's doing with one of those damn things.

No, it's the dead squirrel that plops into his lap that gets his attention. He picks it up by the tail, waving it at her.]

Y' plannin' t' eat this, babe?

[singinghuntress]

[She glances from her handiwork above his head to the squirrel in his lap and grins slightly.]

Nope~. All yours if you vant it.

[om_nom_namur]

This much fuzz? Gonna muck me up for a week.

[It won't, really. He survived two years in Trabia eating snow lions and whatever shit they served in the cafeteria. But he eyes the squirrel critically anyway. He hates eating anything other than fish, really, but he hates to see it go to waste. In the end, the latter wins out, and he swallows the creature in one big gulp. Namur stands and stretches, surveying the damaged tree himself, then smirks.]

Yer such a nerd sometimes, babe. Take it y' like the gun, then. What's it called? A musket? Who'd y' get it from?

[chief_of_staff]

What in the world --

Are you planning on killing anyone with that? I'm not talking about animals, but other people!

[Vampires, humans, whatever. He's kind of concerned, not about himself, but just of Rip's plans with the gun. He doesn't know what she does for a living, so he really just has no idea what the gun is for.]

Re: [video]

[singinghuntress]

[Rip just laughs as she gives her new musket a toss and then catches it after it spins a few times in the air with ease.]

Hardly~. But, I could if I desired to.

[She grins as she rests the gun against her shoulder.]

Relax Sabo, I'm not uzing zhe gun for anyzhing...nefarious.

[Yet. Give her time.]

Zhis just happens to be my preferred veapon.

[video]

[chief_of_staff]

Ah, well then.

You've always used that type of gun?

[He's still kind of wary, but ... he figures it best to just keep the discussion fairly upbeat.]

[quick_clean_pure]

Damn. Nice shooting. And nice fucking gun, too.

[singinghuntress]

Thanks. She fires just as beautifully az she looks.

[And Rip is more than a little giddy about it.]

[quick_clean_pure]

Sure seems like it. Where'd your friend get ahold of it?

[Video]

[fairysoul]

You're a huntress, Rip? [Mavis looks surprised, but not in a bad way.]

Re: [Video]

[singinghuntress]

[She grins as her hand gently caresses the musket leaning against her shoulder.]

Yes I am~. It's alvays been a passion of mine.

[fairysoul]

What do you hunt, then?
