I need a vacation. A very long vacation.

For the time being, I shall be locked in my office with a bottle of cognac. And it is very likely that I will not emerge for a considerable length of time.

I am also in possession of my shotgun. Consider yourselves warned, should any of you have the brilliant idea to bother me.

... a shotgun?

[ashenice]

Yes.

[orchidcircle]

It's pointless having something that's already shot, is it not?

[ashenice]

Ah, no. It is called a shotgun because... well, to be honest, I do not know. Something about the type of ammunition used when it was created, I believe. It is a more destructive type of firearm.

[orchidcircle]

It sets your arm on fire..? How painful.. be careful when you use it, sir..

[ashenice]

Have you no guns in your world?

[orchidcircle]

Actually, Magoichi-san has something called a sniper.. Ranmaru doesn't like guns very much. They're undignified!

[ashenice]

Ah, he has a rifle? A shotgun is very similar to that.

[orchidcircle]

Oh!! Is it? Ranmaru didn't think such weaponry would be widespread! Then sir has to be even more careful! If the gunpowder gets in your eyes, sir could go blind!

[ashenice]

Fortunately for me, my sight cannot get much worse than it already is. On Gaia, just about everyone has a gun.

[orchidcircle]

Sir's eyesight is flawed..? Did that stabbing start affecting sir's other eye as well..?

...

I'm sorry..

[ashenice]

It has been halved. And my right eye has never been my dominant one. It is more psychological than anything else.

Do not apologize. I have accepted it.
