Logs - Moonracer + Nightbird
Moonracer:
*she'd gone to the shooting range pretty early in the day, thrilled with her idea to do some practicing. She didn't really need it, she had impeccable aim, but hey! She was really into having some fun, and well, shooting things was always fun!*
Nightbird:
*and she comes skipping all the way down to the shooting range. She had Wildrider's gun, which meant she /had/ to go see him again. And someone actually invited her to do something. Was she happy? Hell yeah, she was. She waved at Moonracer as soon as she spotted her*
Moonracer:
*she stopped her target practice as soon as she saw Nightbird, grinning and waving her over* Hey! Glad you came!
Nightbird:
*And she skipped her way to her* Hello! I told ya I would come!
Moonracer:
*she beamed happily at her, resting her gun against her shoulder* You brought a gun?
Nightbird:
*and here comes Wildrider's gun! She takes it out and gives it to her to inspect* My friend /lent/ it to me. Dunno if it's any good, but I like it!
Moonracer:
*she nodded, subspacing hers for the moment and taking Wildrider's and looking over it, holding it up. She took aim with it, cocked it with a click and fire. The result was a resounding explosion of the target, leaving Moonracer with a satisfied look on her face.* It'll do.
Nightbird:
*and is grinning madly behind her facemask* Really? I just sorta liked it cause I got to kill a few crazy girls with it.
Nightbird:
^_^
Moonracer:
*O.O*
Moonracer:
Uh, right. Well, this is pretty simple, it's basically just point and shoot.
Nightbird:
*grins and does just like she said, not even bothering to look and aim* Like that?
Moonracer:
Uh...well sorta. Here
Moonracer:
*slides behind her, positioning the gun in her hands, holding her arms straight out* Hold it like this. *lines Nightbird up, adjusting her stance and posture* Stand like this. *taps the top of the gun with the little scope on top* Use this to aim. Sometimes this little gadget isn't available though, so you gotta rely on yourself. Me, I never use it. *grins* But I don't need to. Elita says I've got
Moonracer:
the best aim she's ever seen. *adjusts Nightbird again* Now, shoot.
Nightbird:
*has actually paid attention and grins before using the scope, aiming and firing*
Moonracer:
*nods as she hit the target, the leaned over and pressed a button on the wall, the targets beginning to move* Alright. Moving targets now. *Moonracer was clearly in her element, this being one of the things she enjoyed the most* Try to move with the target. And, don't just look at it, sense it. *nods* Draw it to you. You gotta call the target to you. *She stepped back, grinning*
Nightbird:
*and tried to hit it, really, but she missed. Badly. And killed a flying bird... O_O wtf!*
Moonracer:
O.o
Moonracer:
It's okay. It takes practice. *taps a finger to her chin, re-adjusting Nightbird and the gun in her hands* Try one more time. Remember, don't just point and shoot. Aim, and draw the target to you in your mind.
Nightbird:
You think I can get better at this? ^_^
*and here she tries again, looks through the scope and is following her target. Shoots and...* Shit!
Nightbird:
*there goes another bird*
Nightbird:
What the...? Where did it come from?
Moonracer:
Of course I think you can get better!
Moonracer:
*winces at another dead bird, smothering giggles* They keep jumping in front of your bullets.
Moonracer:
Watch me do it. Then you try again. *she leaned over and picked up her gun, and, with a practiced ease, set herself up, aimed and fired. The result was a loud bang, and a hole blown cleanly through the middle of the farthest moving target.* Now yo utry.
Nightbird:
You make it seem so easy. *goes and tries again, taking even more time to aim and shoot*
Nightbird:
*and another bird just falls next to the other two*
Moonracer:
*she grinned giving Nightbird a pat then walked back over to her.* Here. *she came up behind Nightbird, sliding her arms around her and aiming the gun with her.* Close your eyes.
Nightbird:
*blinks slightly at the contact. People don't get close to her as a rule.* Alright.
*and turns off her optics*
Moonracer:
*she aimed the gun gently, following the target slowly* Fire.
Nightbird:
*shoots*
Nightbird:
*would've been a perfect shot but a bird actually flew in front of the target*
*dead bird on the floor*
Nightbird:
*turns on optics* DID I HIT IT? DID I HIT IT?
Moonracer:
*steps away, shoulders shaking in laughter* Look. *points to the bird directly on front of the target* You /would/ have hit it.
Nightbird:
*looks at the bird. D:* Why birds? That didn't happen before!
Moonracer:
*is giggling* They sem to have an affinity to you!
Moonracer:
*See
Moonracer:
*SEEM
Nightbird:
[roflmao]
Nightbird:
*and actually glares*
Nightbird:
*at the birds*
Moonracer:
*pats her shoulder* You'll get better.
Nightbird:
*sighs* I don't think so... I'll never get a gun if all I can shoot at are crazy women and birds.
Moonracer:
Just keep practicing. Come out here when you aren't busy and shoot.
Moonracer:
I'll come with you, if you want.
Nightbird:
*and is totally grinning under that mask and huuuug* You'll teach me, right?
Moonracer:
*nods* Of course. I've taught you most of the basics of shooting.
Nightbird:
YAY! Does that mean you're my friend? *and yes, she's still hugging her*
Moonracer:
*beams happily, hug! YAY FRIENDS!* Yes, of course!
Nightbird:
*nad let's go to look at her closely* Ya know... you really are the first one to be all nice to me and stuff. *giggles... what the slag? She just giggled*
Moonracer:
*she grinned at her* I like making new friends!
Nightbird:
*and is grinning back, too bad she can't see it* Yeah, it's nice! We can tell each other things and stuff. ^_^
Moonracer:
*beams* Other things?
Nightbird:
Like secrets and stuff! *is in lala-land* Ooohh.... I know lots of secrets! <3
Moonracer:
*giggles* That sounds fun! What kind of secrets?
Nightbird:
*tilts head and looks at her best friend ever* Most of my secrets are not really good.
Moonracer:
*blink* What do you mean, not good?
Nightbird:
*and look at her going slightly serious* Well, I'm not dumb, even if they think I am... You know what I mean?
Moonracer:
*stares at her incredulously* I know exactly what you mean.
Nightbird:
*blinks* But... but you're all nice and friendly! I'm the creepy abomination of nature that lives in the vents. *really remembers everything she's been called*
Moonracer:
*Shifts, watching Nightbird* I...I remember everything I've been called, too. They think I don't hear it, that it doesn't bother me...*rubs her head* I'm the pit spawned banshee. *wry smile* But I don't let it bother me! *beams again*
Nightbird:
Meh, I think you're awesome! *optics light up* And well, most of the time I don't bother listening to them. I like what I do and I ain't changing it! But being thought of as the 'special' one is not really funny.
Moonracer:
*nods with a smile* I think you're awesome as well! *beams happily* Yeah...I know how you feel!
Nightbird:
*tilts head* We need to do something! To keep from going all dull and boring like the other mechs.
Moonracer:
*watches her* Like what?
Nightbird:
*shrugs* Dunno... Maybe a club? Humans go there to dance all the time. *happy grin too bad no one will know it happened* I like dancing! <3
Moonracer:
*she looked THRILLED* Dancing Really? You like dancing?! Me too! *squeals in happiness*
Nightbird:
*excited giggle* Yep! Dancing! Does that mean yes?
Moonracer:
Yeah! Lets do it! IT sounds amazing!
Nightbird:
YAy! lemme go find a way to change my holo's clothes. I wanna look different! ^_^ *jumping up and down like a little kid*
Moonracer:
*grins excitedly and hugs her* Great! Me too!
Nightbird:
*and hugs back! FRIEND!!!*
Nightbird:
*and runs off to get different clothes for her holo*
Moonracer:
*does the same!*
