[When the video begins, it quickly becomes obvious that it isn't intentional on behalf of its owner: the tablet's sitting upright on a dresser, the surface pretty well-kept except for some papers and books currently piled on the corners

Impressive.

[video]

[zerosuitjill]

I'm not normally the collecting type, but I figured it couldn't hurt.

[video]

[aint_comin_back]

You've my collection beat. That ain't gonna fly, darlin'.

[zerosuitjill]

[She smirks slightly. o u men.] And you've been here longer than me, too. I'm shocked, Mal.

[video]

[aint_comin_back]

See, I tend to stick to a handful of types I know well.

[video]

[zerosuitjill]

Same here. [Slight pause] ...I just know several types really well. That, and I can't tell you how many times I've gone up against something that called for a specific caliber.

[video]

[aint_comin_back]

Huh. In my experience, caliber don't matter much.

[video]

[zerosuitjill]

It... depends on what I'm fighting. ["What," not "who," note.] Occasionally I've needed some heavy firepower.

[video]

[aint_comin_back]

[So noted.] Ain't even askin' what. Figure we got enough to worry about here without it.

[video]

[zerosuitjill]

[She makes a sound of agreement] It wouldn't do any good to give them any more ideas, anyway.

[Especially since they already brought Lickers here, what.]

But caliber hasn't mattered much lately; however big my guns, they don't do a thing against mind tricks.

[video]

[aint_comin_back]

Ain't that the trick, though? Not much defense there at all.

[video]

[zerosuitjill]

[She exhales just a tad heavier than usual as she nods] No, there isn't. But one method of defense is better than nothing.

[video]

[aint_comin_back]

Ain't gonna argue that.
