5th Blog - Fire It Up [Backdated May 4th]

Text - Public

[ With her last bounty hunt ending up in a gunfight and Icy's recent attack on Attleton, Genessia's dangers have finally revealed themselves and made Mariko see how unprepared she really is. She's confident in her powers for the most part, because back home they managed to save her bacon more times than she can count. But this is not her world. She'll need to start adapting for real, and she cannot do that by remaining obscure. Deciding to step out of her comfort zone, she sends a public text in hopes of meeting someone and learning something new: ]

Looking for people to train with and partner or team up at the Holodeck. Not looking to pick a fight with anyone here, just putting that out there before you get any ideas. Recent events just made me want to step my game up. I fight with firearms as my main weapon of choice and my combat experience is short and against "supernatural" enemies. I'm not a regular human like the natives of Genessia City, physically speaking. Disparities in our abilities can be a turn-off though and some of you might have questions, so let's hash things out first if you're unsure and schedule a time. I'd definitely appreciate it

Hmm ok.

Mind telling me what your abilities are, if any? I'd like to know what sort of person I'm gonna be working with.

I use a broadsword and magic. I know it may not seem like much, but I am a lot stronger than I look.

[Kanonno does indeed look like a string bean despite being 15 years old.]

I can't judge that, I don't know what you look like. Not even sure you're human

[ They are talking in text after all. So as some sort of sign of trust and give Kanonno a reference on who to look for, Mariko switches to video, showing her face in it's default lineface expression ]

So you know who to look for. How far along are you to Nova?

[And Kanonno is indeed human. As far as she can tell, anyway. She doesn't even remember her past.]

I'm about thirty minutes to an hour, depending on traffic. I'm riding a bus there.

[ Upon hearing Kanonno's voice and seeing her face, Mariko couldn't help but frown ]

Uhhh... how old are you?

[ Or rather, how young. Mariko may have been in Kanonno's place when she's been constantly asked that by grown-ups (still does, since Mariko looks a couple years younger than her actual age, though to be fair she's only 18). So now it's Mariko's turn to question the kiddies ]

[Her age? To the best of her knowledge:]

I'm 15.
