[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.

I've got eight guns

[soft_shelled]

That's eight too many.

[Whoops, also even though his first meeting of Kaede involved her having a gun? He still just, kinda memory holed it. Thus the comment.]

@IcyHot

[heir_conditioned]

Why would you dress a gun?

WANNA PUT A GUN ON ME

[gigan stop trying to get donatello to give you surgery challenge failed AGAIN]

[saudadist]

shut the hell up

they're for any type of enemy
some higher caliber than others

[soft_shelled]

Dressing a gun is taking it apart to clean and maintain the pieces so it doesn't malfunction.

Field dressing is doing so without the use of tools, and is usually the easiest method to do so and also tends to be able to do the job one needs to do anyway. Detail dressing is using tools to do it, and can sometimes get at parts that you can't with a field dressing.

[You have activated Donnie's tech babble mode.]

[soft_shelled]

Then ask LILITH to do it? Because I'm not.

[Medical science is not one of his fields, Gigan!!!]

[soft_shelled]

I can't see you being able to handle the kickback of higher caliber weaponry.

[donutsanddonots]

Uh, aren't there safer ways to keep your hands busy? There's plenty of tech around that you could probably harmlessly borrow outside of weaponry.

[No he's not going to mention that he does have a gun. And that it functions differently from most firearms here. His nonsense senses tell him that would be a bad idea.]

[saudadist]

just say you want a demonstration, dickhead

[heir_conditioned]

[Bless him for being honest, however he's going to have to out babble the mutter king in Shoto's life if this gentleman wants the title.]

Oh. So it has nothing to do with fashion. I thought at first you were making them custom items. I don't have guns but I thought it was interesting sounding. The alternative seems interesting too.

[soft_shelled]

Why would I want that? Seeing a cute girl get hurt by a gun isn't entertaining.

[soft_shelled]

My job is tinkering with tech... My not LILITH job, I mean.

[His civvie job is Geek Squad, he gets enough tech tinkering there.]

I need something with fiddly pieces, I... get like this once a year, okay?

[soft_shelled]

Oh, you don't want me to do anything like that. My art skills are nil.

[saudadist]

[ did he just say... ]

I use them all the time?????

[kaizou]

NO IT WAS A QUESTION

DO YOU WANNA

BUT I GUESS THAT'S A NO

TOO BAD

[soft_shelled]

[IT'S A SEASON, KAEDE.]

And? Still doesn't mean you can't get hurt?

[soft_shelled]

I'm pretty sure I told you I don't work on living things?

[kaizou]

YEAH BUT I THOUGHT MAYBE YOU CHANGED YOUR MIND BY NOW

[saudadist]

[ Excuses, excuses! ]

don't underestimate me

I'll kick your ass

[heir_conditioned]

Have you ever tried? You could try with small things. I don't mean clothing like I did originally, but you don't have to have art skills to know what you like the look of.

[donutsanddonots]

Ah. So you're seeking out more interesting tech than coffee brewers and defective computers I'm guessing?

[The less silly tone of his response causes Richele to pause...]

LILITH has been handing out some more weapons for us to test.. have you tried your hands at any of those yet?

[soft_shelled]

If I haven't changed my mind in my sixteen years of life, I'm not changing it now.

[soft_shelled]

Bigger, and scarier, ladies than you have tried, Kaede.

[soft_shelled]

Tried art? Yeah, I have. It was not good, also it's my baby brother's thing. I don't want to overstep.
