Yours Truly

Hirata blushed a little and turned slightly to look away from Yvette's slightly exposed...and she moved her hands to gently hold Yvette's instead as she looked away from Jezzabella's face and stammered out, "Ssssorry." just to gently hold Yvette's, and she closed her eyes a little and let out an odd little sound as Yvette pet her, "Pplease dddon't ppet me, I'm not a little girl..." she said with the voice of a very young boy and the stature of an admittedly not little girl, "Bbbut yes if we find another gun I'd be happy to teach you how to fire one!." Hirata shook her head a little as Jezzabella moved to hand her the gun, "And nno yyyou should keeep it, I can't really use it myself after all, sssince it's a bit....heavy, and if you ffeelbadabouttakingsomethingfrommeforfreeyoucanalwaysjust...," she then froze up a little, and turned around to run in the other direction with Ichi in tow to try and escape from this embarrassing situation.

Hirata let out a slight squeak of surprise as she felt something snake under her shirt as Jezzabella held her in place and bucked against her a little with every shot, causing her to awkwardly stand there and freeze up a little, not quite sure on what to do next as she moved one of her hands down to try and get a hold on the tail and find out if it was actually doing what she thought it was. She let out a slight sigh of relief when Yvette interjected, and she stroked Jezzabella's tail a little as she took the most embarrassing steps back she has ever took in her life and said, "Bbbbut yyyeah ttthat's you ffire a gun, and umm...lllet's not do tthat kind of thing wwwhen evveryone's watching..." as she blushed profusely underneath her mask and unknowingly continued to grasp Jezzabella's tail.

Hirata let out a slight 'ah' sound before she leaned in a little more to say, "Weeell where I come from crossbows have a safety that you can disengage like so~," she gently moved the hand holding the magazine to flick the safety off before she attempted to wriggle away a little and say, "So that you won't have to load the crossbow again when you need to shoot something!, and you need to use a safety if you want to handle a gun...safely Jezzabella, because a seemingly unloaded gun might still have a bullet in the chamber after all, just waiting to be fired like so~," she then exhaled a little as she pulled on Jezzabella's trigger finger once more to let out a short burst at the Guard's unfortunately extra desecrated corpse.

Hirata let out a slight meep sound as she gently nudged the barrel away from her face, "Yes but umm...you sshouldn't point the barrel at anything you wouldn't be fine with accidentally shooting, especially since one of these things could shoot around 500 times per mmmminute and in fact I should pppprobably." She slowly sidled to the side to move behind Jezzabella, brushing up a little against her tail and behind before she curiously stroked her tail and held the maid's hands to gently drag one of them down the gun's length to come to rest at the trigger and stock to hold the gun properly. She then moved her other hand back up to grasp Jezzabella's to guide it into keeping a firm grip on the magazine and pointing the barrel down by the magazine to point directly at one of the dead guards. "Ttthere! That's how you're supposed to hold a gun, and I think it's supposed to rest on your shoulder like thi-," she gently nudged the stock to rest on Jezzabella's shoulder properly, her head leaning in slightly to rest on the same shoulder to get a better look and definitely not to smell their..lavenderish hair some more, "s, or it might dislocate your shoulder or get bucked off of your hands when you fire it...uuunless you remember to pull the trigger like this," she gently squeezed Jezzabella's trigger finger for a few seconds at a time before she said, "Since otherwise this gun will just keep firing until you let go of the trigger, and you'll run out of bullets too quickly and I'm not sure if we can get any more yet... and I still have to teach you how to reload and everything...and how to disengage the safety, yyou know what a safety is right? Like on a crossbow, but it's just a switch you pull up and down.."

Hirata nodded a little as she said, "Of course! I'd be happy to teach you later! And don't worry, this won't take too long~," just before she asked Ichi to hand her the LMG, which caused her to fall forward ever so slightly with it's sheer weight when it proceeded to unceremoniously dump said weapon in her hands causing her to let out a little oof sound. She then quickly turned the safety on when she gingerly handed the gun stock first to Jezzabella and asked, "Have you ever held a crossbow before? Or fired one that is?" before she waited for the maid to pick the weapon up with shaking hands.

"Well Iii can always...teach you how to fire one! They're sort of like a bow and arrow, except they're longer than they are wide, and you don't fire arrows, you fire bullets like from a sling, and you don't need to pull anything heavier than a trigger like in a crossbow, and you don't have to take out another bullet after each shot...but other than that it's exactly the same....although I'm uhh," Hirata's poking two of her fingers together by this point before she continued with, "Nnnot very good with them."

Hirata blushed a little inside of her mask as she heard what Yvette said to Jezzabella, and her immobile companion decided to helpfully state, "THERE WILL BE NO ROOMS FOR THE FORESEEABLE FUTURE," waaay, waaay to loudly, causing Hirata to punch it a little and let out a nervous laugh as she loudly exclaimed "Bbbut aaanywaaaaaayyy, dddo any of you know how to use a gun?"

Despite the gruesome manner with which Jezzabella had dispatched the beast, Hirata still decided to fire a grand total of two shots in the zombie's direction before she had to unjam the pistol once more, and she ordered Ichi to gently pick up the guns the guards were carrying as she said, "Yvette, maybe we should wait here until Shamhat wwakes up again, bbecause yyou know...," before she trundled over to where Shamhat was lying without explaining what she meant, and attempted to check her pulse the usual way, finding the woman to be thankfully alive... but probably hurting somewhat.

Hirata quickly aims her Raikiri and points it at the rifle toting guard, attempting to shoot him until he dies, dealing 1d6+Dex damage to the man. Ichi slams his improvised weapon against the guard with the rifle again if he doesn't die, dealing 1d8+Strength damage to the man.

Hirata unjams her gun as an action. Ichi overcharges and slams his improvised weapon against the guard with the rifle twice or until it dies, moving on to the shotgun guard if it does, dealing 1d8+Strength damage at the cost of having an additional +50% chance to run out of power.

Loadout Hirata takes a shot at the giant zombie with Raikiri, dealing 1d6+Dexterity damage with a 25% chance to jam the weapon after a use. Ichi picks up it's pipe and smacks the giant zombie with it, dealing 1d8+Strength damage.

"Oh he did, did he?" Said Radovan as he slowly sat down right next to Zeta, and he slowly pushed the glass and it's contents to an empty area of the table with a slight frown on his face. A brief and slightly awkward moment of silence occurred as Radovan patted Zeta a bit before he worked up the courage to say, "Well miss Rubia, If you don't mind me asking, what's the occasion anyway? Since I'm sure that Gyaradosmeat isn't exactly everyday fare."

Radovan, being the smooth criminal operator that he is, decides to ruffle Zeta's hair before he leaned in to whisper, "Well....why don't we go and get some, Zeta~? Come with me for a moment!" before he gently took Zeta by the arm and moved towards the table the woman was sitting in, and said, "Excuse me miss, but may I borrow that menu for a moment?" With a confident sounding tone of voice, and a formal seeming posture.

Jun targets as many of the ladders she can take down using her needle of agony, dealing 4d6+Dex damage to the closest available ladder twice or until it dies, in which case she'll move on to another ladder. Loadout

After hearing the words 'sounds like a nice challenge' in the context of 'robot and monster infested area', Hirata decides to take out her pistol and search the area for anything of interest, or something to hide behind while her mutant finds something to use as a weapon while making as little noise as possible.

Hirata took another step towards Yvette and fidgeted a little on the spot, her fingers pressing against each other and generally moving around as she awkwardly asked, "Wwwell since you asked, is it...is it fine if I ask you to come with me? I wanted to go to the robotics hardware assembly sector because if we can take it over and hold our position there, I could start working on our very own robot army to take on the AI's, bbbbut it might be too dangerous actually, if it's just the four of us, nnevermind."

After having spent the last few moments with performing her best impression of a statue, Hirata took some hesitant steps forward to take a better look at Yvette's arm and asked, "Yyyou can still move it right? And do you know what it did to your arm?"

Hirata had simply nodded in response to Yvette's question earlier and gave a reassuring, "Don't worry about it! I already said that it was fine didn't I~? That and besides, I wouldn't be a good friend if I say no when they ask me for help right?," before she slowly walked away from the ritual circle and maintained a firm grip on her pistol. She turned very slightly to face Shamhat as she heard them speak, "Well of course! But if we keep teleporting things from here the AI might catch on and send someone to get us wouldn't they? That and I don't know if we have enough power to perform a thorough battery of tests, you noticed the lights dim earlier didn't you?." Hirata tried her best to seem calm, composed, and more importantly, silent when the tiny black things started to materialize, mostly because she had to resist the urge to let out a squee or try to pet them, as it didn't take a genius to realize that it was a bad idea to pet the eldritch or demonic; unfortunately Ody had no such restrictions, and it chose to state, "WHY ARE YOU TALKING GIBBERISH AT THEM, WHY ARE THEY DEMONS, NONE OF THIS MAKES ANY SENSE, I MISS MY TOASTER."

Radovan felt a little crushed, devastated even! With the fact that he was essentially left on Zetasitting duty while Uno went off somewhere with Emmanuel and Cathode, but he decided to not air his grievances as he ruffled Zeta's hair and took a seat next to the man and the woman, just before he tried to find whatever counted as a menu in this place and read it in depth.

"Wwwell, how much power do you need? Because if you want you could use some of Ichi's, I could always recharge him later, and wait! What kind of power do you even need? Because Ichi runs off of electricity right now."

Hirata turned slightly to stare at Yvette in a hopefully not creepy way as she waited for her Wayspider to send a message back to confirm that it's constituent atoms weren't violently disassembled and spread throughout the galaxy in a butterfly shape, and she craned her head a little to the left before she curiously asked, "So what are you trying to d-aaaah," she let out a slight cry of surprise and jumped back a little as a pop up message quickly popped into view in her AR goggles, and she let out a slight sigh of relief as she realized that it was just her wayspider checking in, "Umm sorry about that, it was just the wayspider checking in, it apparently made it without any problems but I'm getting some slight interference from...something, but anyway! What are you trying to do with it?"

"Wwell sometimes it lets out red sparks but I'm not really sure what those sparks are, also ummm you should feel free to try bbbut, the demon won't be anything like Jezzabella rrright? Bbbecause.. I...I don't have a spare set of clothing," she turned away again with a slight squee sound after saying that to try and hide the blush that no one would have noticed anyway, and she hurriedly made the motions to send her wayspider over to the military software room, causing a loud bang to be heard as the lights dimmed a little.

"Oh! Did you mean the energy cell I'm powering it with? I got that from Morp before you got here, and umm...I don't think that you can take a look at it right now.... bbbecause it'ssortofdeepinthereandgettingitoutisprettyhardso umm... sorry." She said before she looked down to solder something into place.

Hirata was still tinkering with one of her miniature wayspiders when Morp floated in, and she hummed a little before she said, "Oh hey Morp! I'm just working on a small transmitter robot before I send it to the military software sector with this teleporter we found, since I wanted to learn more about it's layout before I head there... and also since Shamhat wanted me to test it first before we use it on ourselves just in case the AI messed with it when it took over the facility." as Hirata finished saying this a muffled voice declared something along the lines of, "IT'S WHAT I WOULD HAVE DONE," before she squeezed the bodypillow a little and turned slightly to face Yvette. She stared long and hard at the PBA for a moment before she said, "Oh hey! A biocomputer, I haven't seen one of those in ages, did he tell you how it works? In my world they just had DNA computers and some weirdos who thought that using actual brains for computing was a good idea. Oh and I got Ichi from around here, why'd you ask?"
