Does anyone have a handgun I could borrow?
[annoyed amusement] I'd like to keep up my marksmanship skills, but, the town stole my gun...

Ya think they're keepin' weapons all in one area?

[tickingheart]

I've got no idea where the town is keeping anything. Heck, right now I wouldn't be surprised if they started pulling weapons out of thin air.

I'm hoping someone got a handgun back, and would let me use it for practice.

[dispenserplz.livejournal.com]

I mean the ones they stole from us!

[tickingheart]

... What other weapons would I be talking about?

[dispenserplz.livejournal.com]

Dunno, sounded like y'were talkin' about somethin' else.

[tickingheart]

[He is slightly amused, or maybe annoyed. Or some combination of both.]

Town stole my gun. I want to practice. Since I don't know where they're keeping my gun, I wanted to know if anyone had one I could borrow.

[dispenserplz.livejournal.com]

Yeah, 'kay, got that part pal.

Why would anyone wanna lend ya their weapon?

[Shock runs across her face as she see's him by the phone. She just know's he's been missing the past three days.]

Katio! I was lookin for ya! Where have you been?

Are you okay?

[tickingheart]

[Oh! Harley! Oops. He had hid as well as he could while his processes repaired themselves in a way they were never designed to do, and have totally forgotten to tell Harley what happened. He hoped she wasn't too worried.]

I'm fine! [A strained laugh.] I... ran into some trouble? But I'm better now! [and maybe if he grins, she won't ask what happened.]

[crazyclownwoman.livejournal.com]

What kind of trouble? You didn't get hurt did ya'?
[She looks him over closley, trying to figure out what happend.]

[tickingheart]

... Just a fight...
I'm better now!

[crazyclownwoman.livejournal.com]

Really? Who with?

[The voice is casual and you'd think she's be buying the answer. Unless of course you know that she happened to have been a psychiatrist. It was her job to figure what was bothering people.]

[tickingheart]

[You don't really need to be a psychiatrist to get into Robo's head. Just be nice enough to him that he drops his guard. Or send him on a oh-I-forgot-to-tell-the-woman-who-is-supposed-to-be-my-temporary-mom-that-I-got-killed-over-the-weekend guilt-trip.]

... The other Kaito

[bustydefense.livejournal.com]

... I'm not sure I want anyone to give you a handgun.

[tickingheart]

[His grin is almost audible]

Why not?

[bustydefense.livejournal.com]

Because I'm not certain you won't use it only against our captors.

[tickingheart]

Who said I was going to use it against anyone?

I just want to get some target practice in.

Paper targets.

[bustydefense.livejournal.com]

Then I'm not certain you'll use it only against paper targets. Because why practice if you don't intend to use it, somehow?

[tickingheart]

I'm a magician! Being able to work with lots of things is important!
Why would I learn how to breath fire, or juggle chainsaws if I wasn't going to use it somehow?

[braided_icarus]

...A handgun? Which Kaito is this...?

I don't think the town would exactly agree with us kids having guns.

[Not about to admit he himself has held and fired one, or that he could probably cause much more damage with his alchemy if he was pressed.]

[tickingheart]

It's worth asking for one. And I'm sure the town wouldn't mind it if there's a responsible adult standing over my shoulder!

[braided_icarus]

I still doubt they will let you. Good luck trying.

[perfect-mother.livejournal.com]

A handgun? No dear, I'm sorry.

[tickingheart]

Oh, that's alright, I was just wondering.

[he is smiling]

[perfect-mother.livejournal.com]

Alright dear. I hope that someone has one that you can use.
