[006]: Video

[When the video feed turns on, the viewer is first greeted with the image of Sarina pulling a shirt on over her head. Those who may be easily flustered don't have to worry too much though; the video only showed her mostly bare back. With a sigh, she turned around to the camera, as she plopped herself on her bed. If she was bothered by showing a

I do not think it is a good idea to hold onto that gun.

[deceptive_lulz]

[She gives a side glance to the screen, but doesn't seem offended when she speaks. Just genuinely curious.]

Why not?

[voice forever]

[mentis_reae]

Think, if you will, about why that gun might have been abandoned.

[video forever]

[deceptive_lulz]

[Her brows crease as she comes up with what she figured the obvious answer was.]

Because it ran out of bullets, teehee!

[mentis_reae]

You did not consider that perhaps it was abandoned because it was used in a crime?

[deceptive_lulz]

Well, I found it in the middle of a rioting crowd, when I was helping control it. So it probably was, heehee -- but all of the other people were fighting each other anyways!

At least I plant to use it on monsters!

[mentis_reae]

Then you may make yourself complicit in the crime.

[deceptive_lulz]

I didn't hurt anyone, though!

[She paused. No wait, that was a lie.] Well, except that person I drained to an unconscious state, and the two men that attacked me first, heheh! But I only knocked out one of those guys. The other ran away.

But I didn't kill anyone! And I didn't use a gun!

[mentis_reae]

What...? What are you talking about?

[deceptive_lulz]

I was on a team for riot control, last week. Heeheehee -- I ran into a little trouble, I guess you could say.

[mentis_reae]

So you drained someone?

[deceptive_lulz]

He was going to throw a fireball at some woman! I couldn't stand by and watch that happen!

[mentis_reae]

What does that even mean?

[deceptive_lulz]

[Sarina looks confused at the question.]

You don't know what a fireball is?

[mentis_reae]

No. Draining.

[deceptive_lulz]

Oh. Heheh -- it's...kind of a special power I have, I guess.

[She frowns a little, glancing at an outstretched hand.]

I'm not sure how it works, exactly. I think it might have been a power handed to me by my nanomachines. I could be wrong, though.

[She shrugs, continuing.] But I have the power to - uh drain people's lifeforce by...hugging them.

[As always, she's just going to leave out the part that straddling them works too.]
