[Ah the seasons are changing, and even with the work on Kyoto to do? Donnie is getting restless, and really he needs something more to focus on. Something to keep him busy. So he's going to address the Outsiders with an inquiry.]

So, how many people use guns here? And how many of you don't know how to field or detail dress them?

[Donatello, you need to say why you're asking this.]

What I'm asking is well, I need something to keep my hands busy, so I am offering to do any dressing of guns for anyone who needs it done. Or doesn't want to do it themselves?

Also I've been helping around the current base, that's not exactly enough okay.

OH I GET IT

ALL ORGANIC PARTS ARE PRETTY SQUISHY THOUGH

JUST SOME MORE THAN OTHERS

YOU'RE THE TYPE WHO LIKES MACHINES MORE THAN ORGANIC

RIGHT

[soft_shelled]

[And it's for one of the bedrooms in the temp base.]

That's true, and unfortunate.

[soft_shelled]

Correct.

Medical science isn't something I care to dabble in.

[kaizou]

ISN'T IT WEIRD TO LIKE GUNS IF YOU DON'T LIKE BLOOD

THAT'S WHAT GUNS DO

I GUESS FROM FAR AWAY THOUGH SO THAT KINDA MAKES SENSE

[soft_shelled]

Mm, well I've only shot one... Person in my life? And he didn't really bleed?

[donutsanddonots]

[He makes note of it as he starts his way back]

... Yes.

[What else is there to say?

The designated half an hour passes and Richele makes his way up to Donnie's metaphorical doorstep. Knocking on the bedroom door and waiting patiently outside.]

[kaizou]

WAS HE A ROBOT

[soft_shelled]

[Truly nothing else to say on that fact. And Donnie has a slight dilemma, he has better manual dexterity using his cloaked form but!

He also is used to doing things as himself. So over that half-hour he is going over whether he should let this guy see him in his turtle glory or not.

So when Richele knocks, a flat teenaged voice shouts "One sec" and a tired looking teenaged Half-Japanese boy answers. Looks like Donnie opted to not show his real self today.]

Hey, uh... Donut_Hole yeah?

[Since they never exchanged names, he's just going off usernames.]

[soft_shelled]

No he was an alien wearing an exo-armor.

[donutsanddonots]

[Richele blinks down at the young man- A little surprised its a teenager- but then again maybe he shouldn't be by this point... Age didn't mean he was incompetent.

He just wasn't ever going to grow used to seeing children conscripted into this war.

Hilariously, they're both pulling it on each other. Since Richele is in and out of the base so frequently, and due to the fact that the monks are often nosing about, he's also keeping his halo and wings stored away, he looks like a fairly average guy without them.

He smiles, raising a hand up in a polite wave.]

Yup, that's me. And you're... [It takes more of his diplomatic training then he wanted to admit to not make a face.] Bootyyshaker9000? Correct?

[kaizou]

YOU'RE FROM EARTH RIGHT

ALIENS LOVE INVADING EARTH AND EARTH PEOPLE LOVE SHOOTING THEM

WAS HE TRYING TO TAKE EARTH FOR HIS PEOPLE

[soft_shelled]

[Wow, he's 5'5". Sorry he's not a giant, but he does smirk a little at Richele saying his handle.]

Yeah, but you can call me Donatello. Come on in.

[And he'll stand to the side so that Richele can enter the room, which is pretty much like every other room in the base. On one of the futons he'll be able to spot some gun tools, that are surprisingly... Glowy and purple? Kinda pixelly on the edges even, because that's how Donnie's ninpo looks when it manifests.]

[soft_shelled]

Earth born and raised, yes.

And it was more like... He wanted to destroy the Earth? Considering, he and his kind were trapped in another dimension after their first attempt at going after the planet.

[kaizou]

EARTH SEEMS LIKE IT CAN'T DEFEND ITSELF BUT YOU GUYS ARE PRETTY GOOD AT IT

I SHOULD KNOW

DID YOU KILL THE ALIENS

[soft_shelled]

It's kind of a family thing, to protect the planet, at least for me.

... And no, well not all of them? One of them was trapped in their ship that we exploded, the second one ended up in government custody and the leader we kind of had to reseal in that other dimension.

[Why is it so easy to tell this to Gigan? Probably because he just asks and doesn't seem to pry for details.]

[sanktawithashotgun]

[....you know what, that supervision might be more important than first thought. URANIUM??]

Understood. Firearms that fire bullets of light are quite strange to me. [Laser guns....]

Ah, yes, I know where that is. On my way. [Signore Bootyyyshaker9000 did not mention time, so Federico will assume visiting now is acceptable unless otherwise stated. Sorry for the roommates. ]

Yes. That is hardly an improvement. But there could be other factors I do not know about.

[donutsanddonots]

[look I chronically play tall characters Richele is 6'0 /shrugs Well he's glad one of them is entertained by this.]

Donatello. [He's surprised its a name he's familiar with. Not with this individual personally- but somehow his name is native to the areas of Laterano... strange. Still, unimportant, his attention is put back on the conversation.] Thank you.

[He gazes around the room, but yup, it really is just the same as every other one. The outsiders weren't very motivated to decorate when this wasn't their home away from home. The tools do catch his eye and he tilts his head in obvious curiosity. It was hard sometimes to distinguish was an oddity of this world, and what was an oddity belonging to an outsider. He wonders which one this is.

Still, he can ask questions while they work.

He turns back to Donnie and pulls out a handgun outfitted with a silencer as seen in his left hand here from a holster it'd been resting in at his side. Holding it out to the teen and waiting to see what he did.]

[saudadist]

[ Does he have allergies? That's her best guess right off the bat. It doesn't even occur to her that a mutant might also go through uh...nature calling. ]

oh

well like I said
if you need something to take apart and fix and take apart again, I've got plenty of guns

[soft_shelled]

[Sweet summer Kaede.]

... thanks, I'll keep it in mind.

[soft_shelled]

[He's a mad scientist, at his core.]

They don't even exist in my world, at least when I'm from. [Aside from in fiction. And oh dear, good thing he said he's on his way. So Donnie can get himself prepared before "gelato" shows up, that is to say he'll ninpo up his tools and turn on his human cloak.]

If there are, I'm unaware of them myself.

[soft_shelled]

If that's too hard to remember, I answer to Donnie... Or Purple. [Even if the color is only what his father calls him, he's kind of? Fine with being called that.

But yeah, that is a silenced handgun. He'll take it carefully, giving the gun a quick once over visually before he trails his fingers over it.]

Is this a sealed suppressor or one I can take apart?

[It's kind of hard to tell right off the bat, and it will also effect how he'll go about cleaning it.]

[kaizou]

OH LIKE ZONE FIGHTER

[Sure, just like that, everyone understands that reference. Definitely!]

YOU STOPPED THEM EITHER WAY SO NOT BAD

GOOD THING THEY ONLY SENT THREE

MUST'VE BEEN A SCOUTING MISSION RIGHT

EVEN I COULDN'T DESTROY THE WHOLE EARTH ALL BY MYSELF

DID YOU GET A REWARD

[soft_shelled]

No, that was all of them. Apparently, the rest of their species died in the Prison Dimension before they got free.

[Also lol, a reward.]

A reward would mean that humans know about us and wouldn't want to do horrible things to us because we're not human.

[kaizou]

I WAS WONDERING ABOUT THAT WHEN YOU SAID THAT

THE GOVERNMENT GOT THE ALIEN

THAT MEANS THEY KNEW ABOUT THE ALIENS

BUT IF THEY DON'T KNOW ABOUT YOU

HOW DO THEY THINK THE ALIENS GOT BEATEN

ON THE EARTH I KNOW THE HUMANS KNOW ABOUT GODZILLA

AND THE OTHER KAIJU

[soft_shelled]

I don't know? I mean, we did fight the leader over New York City and it wasn't exactly subtle...

[The fact that it's possible that people ended up filming the fight didn't occur to Donnie.]

And yeah, well... Godzilla is a big idiot, no wonder people know about him.
