95.

[Mu appears, holding a large, weighted pugil stick and looks thoroughly confused by it. When he speaks, it addresses the Plane at large.]

Often, I can guess who's behind the changes in my home, but this has me quite baffled. Who cares to claim ownership?

[Mu does as instructed, and smiles upon seeing said compartment.]

Ah! That is not so difficult. [He switches it firmly "OFF" and closes it back up.]

Are all things in that closet so easy to disarm?

[betrayedtwin]

[North chuckles a bit.] Yeah, the others are easier. Most have a safety switch right on the side, but the pugil sticks need the extra protection. Things can get a little crazy during training.

[lamb_of_gold]

I can imagine. Weapons like this offer a good many options in combat. It would end badly if the safety came off because of sloppy handling.

[betrayedtwin]

[North grins a bit wryly, shrugging his shoulder.] For us, it's always off. Keeps us sharp and on our toes--but that's us and our armor. We can take those kinds of blows.

[lamb_of_gold]

I still can't imagine it would be pleasant.

[betrayedtwin]

[He laughs nervously] Yeah... It really isn't. Nothing about them is particularly pleasant. Then again, I doubt anything you found can be said to be anyway. [He shrugs again. It's something he's used to.]

[lamb_of_gold]

The only pleasantries about a weapon are it's aesthetics, usually. These seem to lack even that. Regardless, I will handle them with care. If I need help, I'm sure I could find your, or one of your peers?

[betrayedtwin]

[He definitely has his opinions about weapon aesthetics, much preferring his sniper rifle.] Yeah, I'll be around if you need me. Same with the others. Just say you got them from me because of this merger, and they should understand.
