Are there any gunsmiths in this place? Or people who can do magic-type shit to fix guns?

[She knows there's a bunch of you weirdoes with wizardy powers.]

Nothing urgent or anything; I just wanted to know for later. I've got a pair of customized Beretta 92FS's that I'd hate to lose.

[She did go get them tuned up at Praiyachat's after the shitstorm with Roberta died down, and outside of regular cleaning and maintenance she actually hasn't used her guns much in the past few months ever since she learned to work the Battle Dome. But given the types of confrontations she tends to get into, it's only a matter of time before something happens to her beloved cutlasses again.

...right, she's forgetting something, isn't she?]

Obviously there's no money here, so lemme know what you want me to do to pay up. No bedroom shit, though, so get those thoughts outta your head if they're in there.

Comments

I'd imagine not

[tickle_me]

[Whaddya know, Revy's a shooting-people-in-the-face kinda girl. Maybe they could get along after all. Or just annoy the piss out of each other.]

I don't need anything crazy. [Not at the moment, anyway. She doesn't want to push her luck yet on what this guy might demand from her as payment for "crazy" stuff.] Like I said, I've got two Beretta 92FS's. The barrel's just extended an extra inch. Also, it's Inox, so -- stainless steel. There's custom designs on the grips, but I don't fuckin' care about that as long as the guns'll do their job. The last major problem I had with it was the slide coming a little loose, but I got that fixed before I got dumped here.

Cable shot him in the face a lot and they would be friends

[the_dead_pool2]

Alright, sounds pretty simple. I've had to deal with more advanced shit than that. What sort of design is on the grips?

You got to have some style in the business after all.

[At least in his opinion]

mwahaha excellent

[tickle_me]

[That gets a tiny smirk out of Revy.]

Skull and crossbones. The grips themselves are ivory.

[Because she's a pirate, y'see, and she calls her guns her "cutlasses." Ha ha ha ha...ha.]

[the_dead_pool2]

Very piratey, where do you base yourself out of?

[He's dealt with pirates before, both with and against]

[tickle_me]

Roanapur.

[Though since it's a city that only exists in the Thailand of Black Lagoon...]

[the_dead_pool2]

That somewhere near Bangkok or something?

[Closest approximation]

[tickle_me]

Further south, off the Thailand coast. Port town. Shithole of a place.

[Which, of course, makes it the perfect place for someone like Revy.]

[the_dead_pool2]

Yeah I've been to a few places like that. I did some enforcer work in Japan for a bit, and I have traveled around through circles like that. Can't say that Roanapur really rings a bell to me. A wretched hive of scum and villainy and all that? Those places usually at least can be pretty fun to mess around in.

[tickle_me]

If you're in the line of work I think you're in, I'm surprised you've never heard of it. Then again, I guess it ain't New York or Bogota. Where are you based out of?

[the_dead_pool2]

Different worlds possibly. I do come from a place with a bunch of super heros and super villains. Like ol' Spidey and the Fantastic Four. With of course their evil counterparts of Doctor Octavius and Doctor Victor Von Doom.

[tickle_me]

Don't fuck with me. That shit's only in comic books.

[the_dead_pool2]

I'm well aware of where I'm from toots.

[He gives a bit of a chuckle]

Haven't you talked to any of the X-men who live here? We got Storm, Nightcrawler and Rogue at the top of my head, probably a couple of others. Not to mention Thor, and Captain America.

[tickle_me]

Look, if you're just going to keep spouting bullshit like that then --

[And then something just occurs to her.]



Wait. Are you telling me that that guy I met when I first came here was actually Wolverine?

[She recognized the claws, but of course she wasn't assuming that was actually the guy, since, duh, he's fictional.]

[the_dead_pool2]

Yeah, if he was a gruff hairy guy with adamantion claws, that was probably Ol' Wolverine. Fight him all the time, occasionally with, occasionally against.

[Did no one tell you that fictional characters are real here, Revy?]

It shouldn't be that surprising. After all, one person's reality is another person's fiction.

[tickle_me]

[There's a silence as Revy mulls this over.]





















...this world is out of its goddamn mind.

[the_dead_pool2]

Yep! I should get along fantastically here!

[When in Rome and all that jazz]

Haven't you seen people with crazy powers yet?

[tickle_me]

Of course I have! But who the fuck expects fictional characters to be real? That shit gets you put in the crazy house.

[the_dead_pool2]

As long as you make sure most who try it are dead, I don't see how its really an issue.

[tickle_me]

[Dammit, she just wanted to know who could help her, not have her sanity questioned again.]

Ugh, fine, whatever. So how do I find you if I need you to look at something? Ain't no phones here from what I can see.

[the_dead_pool2]

[You make it too easy sometimes Revy]

Just activate the Deadpool signal, shine it in the sky, obviously.

[Its a bit hard to tell if he is being serious or teasing you]

[tickle_me]

[oh my god no. no. Revy is so done with you, Deadpool.]

Fuck off!

[And then she slams her journal shut, because that's what a rational and mature adult would do in this kind of situation.]

[the_dead_pool2]

[Deadpool gives a little smirk for a second]

And that kids, is what we call a successful trolling.
