OCELOT.

[laveers]

[ The shooting range is one of those on the outskirts of Olympia, with more space and fewer eyes. Asha hasn't bought any guns yet, but she's been paying attention to the models. The rifles look the heaviest and trickiest. Their mechanism isn't immediately apparent to her, but the owner was willing to explain. ]

[ So she has been at the range for a long while before sending a polite message to Ocelot asking to meet here. When he arrives, she's holding a shotgun, examining it. The target is littered with various shots that made it (and didn't). ]

An arrow is quicker, [ she remarks, wryly, seeing him. ] are any of these useful?

thanks plurk for not giving me the ping for this log... :|

[ of course... Ocelot had been more than happy to accept the invitation. he found that he was rather fond of the woman from their brief interactions. something about her reminded him a little of one of his friends, still tucked safely away in stasis.

besides, it was almost insulting to see anyone be such a slave to the old bow and arrow. ]

It depends on the gun. The gun you have is effective enough if you're at close range, and any hit from it will usually take down anything, but the spread is crap. Smaller ones...

[ as if to demonstrate, he pulls out his own, and fires three rapid shots at one of the targets. the three bullets make a lovely triangle shape. ]

...They can get someone before they even know what happened. Of course, you need better aim.

plurk is rude :|

[ She admires the triangle. The gun he has is well-kept, small, and handy. A knife in the hand is just as deadly as a sword. The principle here must be the same. ]

This — is it better to hunt with?

[shashka]

[ the ghost of a smile plays at his lips. ]

It depends on what you consider "hunting".

[ though he'd argue that revolvers are better in general... that might not be the objective case. ]

Really though, the best thing to do is first determine what your shooting style is.

[ She smirks, wide and sharp. ]

Let us say animals.

[ There are many kinds, and her thirst is for adventure first, not blood. She can kill without compunction. But it is not bloodlust. ]

I prefer close-quarters.
