Open armory log 1

What: Weapon lending, gawking, and shenanigans
Where: The armory
When: 12/9 to 12/23
Warnings: Talk about weapons, not much else for now.

[Ever since she got here, Meryl has done nothing but worry. There's a murderer on the loose, and here she is, handing out weapons like they were candy. God, if this wasn't her job, she'd ask what folks were thinking.]

[Still, at least it seems to be good company so far. Complications aside, things just may be okay.]

[As one walks into the room, they can see the shelves upon shelves of the warehouse-like armory lined up with things many of them may not even recognize. While there is some sort of sense of order, given how the weapons are arranged by type, intimidating might be underestimating it for some characters.]

[The armsmaster herself is most likely sitting behind a workbench, working diligently at cleaning everything that was donated in less then perfect condition.]

[Fox had heard there was an armory in the school, and he wanted to check it out. Maybe someone there would be useful to his plans re: Metal Gear. It's only natural that a specialist on large weaponry would be hanging out in the armory, right?]

[He cautiously enters the room and clears his throat.] Anybody here?

[Fox approaches Meryl.]

Tell me about what you've got here.

[No robots here! Damn. Might as well look around, anyway...see if there's anything useful...]

Thanks. Mind if I browse?

[DON'T MIND IF I DO. Just gonna. Look at some of the bigger weapons here.]

[SORRY MERYL, YOU KIND OF ARE. Fox is doing some very serious thinking about what he could do with these!]

I will. Thank you.

Hello? Anyone here?

[Slippy stepped inside with a super scope in his arms.]

I've returning this Super Scope I borrowed.

/Let's go with that.

[He nods] Yeah. You're um...Meryl?

The trigger kinda jammed when I used it so I had to look at it.

[He shrugs and watches Meryl inspect the weapon.] I already took it apart and couldn't find the problem. Maybe you'll have better luck.

'Course I did! Only a dummy would forget to turn the safety off!

[He huffs.]

I looked at the ammo, the barrel reinforcement wire and the stock too and couldn't find anything wrong.

Google is Glorious

The firing pin was too big. Jeez, why didn't I notice that?!

[He feels kind of dumb now that he overlooked that detail even if it is a small one.]

Do we have any extra firing pins in stock?

[identity profile] shipscomingout.livejournal.com 2011-12-20 03:29 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, that's okay. I was meaning to practice with other types of firearms anyway. Speakin' of which, do ya' have any cracker launchers on hand?

[identity profile] shipscomingout.livejournal.com 2011-12-20 03:52 am (UTC)(link)
Thanks!

[He scampers away. The sound of items being shuffled around can be heard. A few moments later, Slippy comes back with a rocket launcher that's almost the size of him in his arms.]

Whew! [He sets it down next to Meryl. Wow, it's heavy.] Okay, I'm ready to check it out.

[identity profile] shipscomingout.livejournal.com 2011-12-20 05:45 am (UTC)(link)
No thanks, I'm fine!

[Except he's wobbling around as he walks and looking like he's going to drop the cannon at any minute.]

[identity profile] shipscomingout.livejournal.com 2011-12-20 07:43 am (UTC)(link)
[It was too late and the Cracker Launcher went off, shooting fireworks everywhere]

Thanks. [He stuffs the Cracker Launcher in the bag and zips.] Well, I'll be seein' ya. [He starts to clumsily walk away, lugging the thing in his arms]
