A lot. [ she leads her into her bedroom and then to her closet, which leads to her workshop and bodyshop. ] As you can see~ I have quite the collection! It's really my pride and joy~

Wow! This is so cool! I already thought you were cool before but I didn't realize you liked these kinds of things.

[It was leaving her in awe, just a bit.]

I want to collect guns, when I get the points to do so. I like shooting them and maintaining them.

For real?! Because I think that's super cool. Have you ever considered getting a shooting range addition to your dorm, and maybe one day when I have some extra points you can help me pick out a gun.

I'm a pretty good shot. [ fingerguns and winks. ]

I've thought of it. I haven't had anywhere to practice around here and Nero gave me his gun, so it's just been sitting in my room, unused. I take it out of the box I keep it in every so often to clean it, of course, but I didn't end up using it except I think during when we had those imps trying to attack everyone? I still ended up losing an eye from that...

[Laughing a bit sheepishly. It was a bit embarrassing to remember. Luckily Lucifel had patched her right up.]

Ah- I can't decide between a motorcycle or a car. Pep has a van, but I don't drive it.

...at least it had seen a little bit of use, but it's a shame you had to jump straight into the action with it, as, like, opposed to getting a chance to practice, which would have probably been infinitely more fun. I'm sorry about your eye too. [ she's going to squint and stare a bit more intently at the both of them, trying to figure out which was replaced. ]

I guess it depends on what sorta ride you're looking for. Do you want to be able to feel it? Liiiike, the wind in your hair, so to speak~

[One of her eyes is actually a different color, funny enough. It's brown - like Yuuki's had been before the corruptions. It took some getting used to. She probably could have gone with the same color, but it made her feel a bit closer to her mother and sister this way.]

Pep doesn't have a shooting range, though I guess I could try to get one set up somewhere. It would have been a little hard to practice after that.

[She laughs a bit.]

Hm. The car with the rabbit on it looks cool. It suits you.

If you're interested I could help you repurpose one of the abandoned buildings into a shooting range. We could, like, buy targets and stuff, and I'm sure between me and Hurricane we could build an apparatus to get them moving or something. IDK, but I'm sure we'd figure it out. And I'm always looking for ways to keep my skills sharp!

[ she chuckles. ] That's my mascot, Tokki! [ she walks over and runs her hand along the decal. ]

Ah- really?! You would do that?

[She is SO HAPPY right now. As if her admiration could be any stronger.]

It's so cute... as I thought it suits you.

['Because you're cute too' kind of goes unsaid. She'll keep that to herself, since Dva has a boyfriend, right? The last thing she wants is for it to be taken the wrong way after the Kissing Game.]

You're amazing... you have so many cool things here and you like shooting too.

Mm! It sounds like it could be a lot of fun! Liiiike, if you'd like to start now, then we could do a bit of shopping around for a building~ [ chuckles. ] ♥♥♥

Let me show you a little something. [ she goes to fetch this. ] This is what my Lightgun used to look like, though I bought a replica and turned it into a hookshot! [ so she turns it aside and fires it at the adjacent wall, so a spear attached to a metal wire blasts out. ]

[She watches Dva with her attention completely on her and her light gun turned hook shot. Yup. Officially a goner and absolutely interested in that hook shot.]

Mm. I’d like that. If we could look together.

[A beat - eyes moving from her face to the hook shot.]

Can I try it?

[ she pulls the trigger again to retract the hook and offers the gun to ren. ] Here, and of course! I've used it to climb buildings and swing around before I had my aibou to help me with that.

[Taking the gun from her and then just holding it for a minute, getting used to it in her hands. Then she points it somewhere that is safe to point it at and pulls the trigger.]

Oh- [The hook stops short of hitting any walls or anything, but it still looked cool when fired from the gun. She tries it again, just enjoying being able to use the weapon brings her joy.]

This is fun. [Smiling warmly and setting it down. It takes her half a second to take Dva's hand and pull her towards the car.]

Let's go in the car with the rabbit! We can go where ever you want.

[ chuckles. ] I'm glad you think so. How about we bring it with us then~? And sure. [ she pulls out an obnoxious looking ring of keys and rounds the car to the driver's side, unlocking the doors, and sliding in. she slips the key into the ignition and starts the car. ] I'm going to get it down to the garage and that's where we'll both get into it, alright. [ she carefully moves the car onto the pink teleportion pad and then gets out, hitting a button that sends it away. ] You ready to head down in style? [ smirks. ]

[Picking up the gun again and watching up until the car is sent away.]

Oh, yes!!

[a beat-]

How did the car leave like that?

[It's so cool-!!]

TBH, I'm not sure. I bet it's some kind of demonic teleportion, but it can't move real life, so we have to take the ol' fashioned way. [ she offers ren a hand and leads her toward the balcony. ]

D-demonic...?

[Not that it matters. She's pretty demonic herself - what with the wings, horns, and tail.]

Oh. [Taking her hand and following towards he balcony.]

I think I get it.

[ aaaand she's going to drag ren straight off the balcony. LOL. it's time to free fall for a bit, though she'll henshin and drag ren into her arms long before they're going to hit the ground. ]

[ she lands, clutching her closely, making a small crater as she kicks up a bunch of dust and debris. ]

Much more fun than the elevator, yeah?

[She had no time to be scared before she was in her arms and the air was whipping around them. Between that and the fall she felt like her heart was going to burst out of her chest. Before she knew it she was clinging onto her, burying her face into Dva’s shoulder.]

Y-yeah. It surprised me.

[She certainly wasn’t afraid of heights or the jump. It was being embraced that was throwing her off. It takes her a minute to actually let go but before that she absorbs the fact that she’s hugging her in return and she can hear Dva’s pulse so close and steady.]

Ah, sorry just- [She needed that minute and then immediately tried to put a little distance between them but not outside of her embrace.]

Do you travel like that a lot?

[She was staring at her in awe a bit, a small smile opening up on her face. The adrenaline was still hitting her a bit.]

Edited 2020-09-26 19:53 (UTC)

I do. [ she chuckles, a bit out of breath, herself, since the burst of adrenaline always gets her, but she doesn't immediately force ren out of her arms, and gives her a couple of seconds to catch her own breath. ] It's a lot faster then waiting for the elevator and having to standing there as it goes down each floor.

[ she dehenshins and offers her a hand, leading her to the garage that she's got to unlock with her phone. inside, the car is waiting! ] It's time to start our shooting range building search~ y'Ready?

Yes, it is a bit convenient. Even with wings, I don't think I could do something like that myself.

[It had been scary and thrilling, but now that she was on the ground again her heart was back to normal. She takes Dva's hand and follows her to the car.]

Mm. I'm ready. [Smiling softly while she runs her fingers across the edge of the hood on the passenger side.]

I was wondering - D.va... I've never heard a name like that before. I'm surprised it never occurred to me to ask about it.

Iiii wouldn't recommend it. I couldn't do it without Henshin, if I'm being honest.

[ as soon as she's inside and the car is started she pulls out of the garage and the girls are off and setting out on the open road. ]

Heh. It's not my real name. My squad and I all have, ah, stage names, I guess you could call them. And me and a close friend of mine must have chosen them together, because I'm D.Va and she's D.Mon. [ chuckles. ] And then there's King, Casino, and Overlord. I don't know if I ever mentioned things back home, but we were fighting a war, and it kind of seemed like it was heavily publicized and we were pretty famous because of it. Like, I even have sponsors, k- kinda like my profile implies, so I imagine we may have streamed our fights or something. I'm not entirely sure, but having cool handles just sorta fight the over-the-top persona of it all, I guess.

Oh.

[She's a bit in awe that Dva seems to have experienced so many things, even if some of it sounds bad. She's never been involved in a war.]

That must have been terrifying, fighting all the time. Were you and the rest of the team?

[She wanted her to at least have some happiness, amid all of that. Friends were important.]

[ she continues driving along the street, taking a turn here and there. ] I haven't seen a lot of fights, but the few that I have seen, yeah, they weren't really that great. [ a halfhearted laugh. ] Close? Yeah, we were really closed, and I really miss all of them.

[Listening intently-]

I'm glad. I... don't really remember what friends I had. I remember I was in school and there were other students I was friendly with, but the one friend I had wasn't a very good person in the end.

[It had been her first memory here, actually. She looks a little self conscious for a moment, before explaining.]

She ended up doing something that seriously injured my sister and I, but we both managed to make it out okay. [Quickly adding-] I've made a lot of really good friends here, though - including you.

It is kind of a blessing and a curse to remember friends from home, because missing them... it sure is a thing. [ she huffs a sigh, slowing down as they reach a relatively long building that she thinks might work fantastically for a shooting range. ]

...o- oh? I'm sorry, Ren. [ frowns. ] It must have hurt to be betrayed by a supposed good friend of yours, but I'm glad you and your sister managed to get out safely and find out about her true colors before something even more terrible could have happened. [ but her frown is quickly replaced by a smile. ] Me too. And I consider you a good friend too.
