[OPEN] ROOTY TOOTY

Who: Nobunaga and you!
When: 10/30-11/13 (whatever date suits you best really)
Where: Capablanca
What: NOBUNAGA REALLY LIKES GUNS: the job log.
Rating: Her enthusiasm for guns (and possibly warfare in general) will definitely come up. Aside that, I'll warn in appropriate comment headers if threads go in any other uncomfortable directions!


a)

[Nobunaga's always been a big fan of guns. During her time, rifles had only begun to make their way onto the battlefield, but she'd been completely enamored by them from the moment she held one and saw it in action. The weight of it in her hands, the feel of the weapon and the sensation she got when she fired one. Her use of rifles had even carried over into her existence as a heroic spirit, having had three thousand of them at once. A legion of portable, flying guns she could call on at will to gun down her opponents...

Naturally, being here meant being without them. For a while it really bummed her out.

But today is the day she's reunited with her one true love: the gun. She shows up for the job and is handed an assault rifle, and for a moment she's stood in awe of the fact she's even got it. She twists the gun in her hands every so often, inspecting it up close, just...running her hands over it slowly sometimes.........]

Incredible...it's not quite a gatling gun, but it's a step up from my own arsenal to be sure...

[You should only sound so fond of something when you're talking about another human being.]

b)

[When it comes to setting up some targets for practice, it's no exaggeration to say she's a natural. Her first few attempts are for practice; she has to get used to the weapon and adjust to how different such a fast, powerful weapon is, compared to her own that simply fired once. But the rate at which she adjusts is astounding really; she's likely one of the first to become accustomed to it (barring, of course, people with experience firing them already) and in no time at all she's confident in her ability. She's ready to shoot some zombies.]

Hah, what a beautiful weapon...warfare really has come a long way.

[The list of things she shouldn't sound particularly fond saying increases.

That being said, she may be a good person to ask if you're looking for pointers.]

c)

[With the actual hunt underway, Nobunaga seems to be in high spirits. She's got a dedicated ammo pouch hanging hanging at her waist and her rifle firmly held in her hands the whole time.]

Well? Excited?

[Yeah, that's to you. What's not to love, right?]

Comments

[hoasen]

Oh...? [Now that Nobu has explained, it does make sense. Her initial idea of hammerspace? Feasible.]

That sounds rather magical, even more so than here. I heard from Kojirou that archer classes aren't those who just use bows and arrows. Gilgamesh I heard uses his treasures? So you as an Archer would use guns...

[Would that be her as an archer too?]

[ateaist]

Now you've got it! That's exactly right; I'm most known for that revolving matchlock technique, so it goes without saying such a legend would make for an impressive noble phantasm.

[Of course, her actual demon king skill is way more powerful, and grants her a huge advantage over all but a handful of servants.

But even if she's no longer a servant, well. No point in giving everything away.]

Although it isn't as if I wasn't skilled in other forms of combat either...I'm certain I qualify for Saber, Lancer and Rider as well.

[Maybe Berserker. She was one angry motherfucker in life.

But qualifying for that class isn't exactly something to be proud of (assuming they're not already one, and in their right state of mind). Not even for her.]

[hoasen]

Oh! I see I see. So that would be one of your ultimate techniques? To use these three thousand guns all at once?

[She swore she watched an anime like this.]

I heard that you can have multiple classes. Which one is your favourite?

[She seems like a proud Archer though, so Vietnam wouldn't be surprised is that's her answer!] I was told once that if I was a Servant, I would be a Lancer.

[ateaist]

Yes, that's the gist of it...and, well, I believe I'm best suited for Archer class. None of my weapons could ever do something as outlandish as shoot a beam or strike at the heart, so I'm not sure if I'd be all that effective in other classes...

[At best, she'd be a close combat fighter with above average stats.

Although maybe if she were an Avenger, she'd manifest as dairokuten maou itself, rather than herself taking on the title. But in the same vein as Berserker, it would mean she'd be distorted heavily, her personality included.]

Are you particularly skilled with a spear or something, then?

[hoasen]

Ah, I see, so specialties definitely play a huge part. [Now she can see why Kojirou said she would fit a Lancer. That being said, she's also an excellent shot. Close quarters combat, however, comes easier to her.

Nobu, you're too sane to fit the others...right?!]

A long oar. I picked something that reminds me of it here, which is another long oar of beautiful design It transforms into a long sniper rifle.

[ateaist]

A sniper rifle...?!

[HEAVY BREATHING.

Okay not really, but. But still...!!]

D-do you have it with you? Can I see it...?!

[hoasen]

I do! Ah, just let me get it.

[They were going to use the designated guns, after all. She picks up the long oar, and with a few muttered words, it begins to transform. It's like the rifle itself is her size.]

It's very large.
