Um... I want to ask anybody who knows how to fight...

How do you pick a weapon? I mean... how do you know what suits you best? Do you try them until you figure it out, or do you let someone pick for you? And what if you-

...nevermind...


[Simon's going to be chilling out around the stairs at the entrance of community building 7, a sheathed sword tucked against his shoulder, holding an unsealed envelope and gazing at either it or the snow. He's bundled up for the cold, at least, but he doesn't seem bothered by it for once.

Every now and then he'll pull out the letter inside the envelope, read it, and cup his hands around the Core Drill at his neck, focused and intense. Nothing seems to happen though, so he'll quickly give up and go back to whatever he was doing before. As always, Boota is with him, though he's probably buried in the snow by the stairs or wandering around a bit.

Bother him?]

Swords are pretty popular, huh. [It just... feels weird for him to use one.]

Do people use them all the time in your world too?

Not really. The weapon most people use isn't really a weapon- it's a Ganmen. A robot you can ride in.
knightofratatosk: (Uh what)

That sounds kind of dangerous. What happens if the robot breaks while you're inside it? Would you just get stuck in there?

Um... well, that sort of happened to aniki once... but he fixed it and made it move again, so it was okay.
knightofratatosk: (What the)

He fixed it from the inside? That's amazing.

Ganmen are pretty amazing! One time Gurren was really broken up, but as soon as Lagann combined with it, it fixed itself right away.

[...]

They don't have any of those here in Luceti, do they?

I wish they did. If I had Lagann, I'd at least be useful in a fight. I can't do anything the way I am now...

I know what you mean. Maybe I should try learning more Filial magic or something... at least then I could be useful that way.

You can fight though, can't you? I mean, you use a sword...

Kind of... I'm not actually the one doing the fighting. That's all Ratatosk.

Oh... [Ratatosk, right. The guy who doesn't like him. ...Or maybe he doesn't like anyone.] ...Well... at least you have someone who can protect you.
