@ iD: Something like that, yeah...
Need me to get into detail about the bike?
@ getting a gun:
Lexi holds gun pinched between two fingers at her arm's length, acting like it's something gross. "What am I supposed to do with this?"

@ Lexi: Juno stares in wonder, "How is it you live in Woodmount and don't know how to use a gun?"

@ Juno: Lexi rolls her eyes. "I know what all the pieces do, it's just after the first few times I tried, my teacher would always grab it out of my hand before I could try again because the bullets never seemed to end up near the target...How was I supposed to practice?"

Single action 22 S&W pistols? Ramsden would see it, pick it up, and throw it as hard as he could.
"See, that's probably more effective than actually USING the damn thing. A 22? Juno, you'd be better off with a slingshot and a bag of marbles."

@ Lexi: Juno sighed. "Your teacher was an idiot. I'll teach you if I have to. No way am I going to let the only other sane person here be defenseless." She proceeds to take out her gun and show Lexi the weapon before it gets taken away by Ramsden.
@ Ramsden: "Hey! It's the only gun I can rightfully call my own regardless of how crappy it is." She paused, "then again, you're probably right. At least I know I can shoot a man's eye out with a marble."

*Ulysses bursts in* SHOTGUNS. Best home defense you'll ever have and great within 25 yards or so. Need to go LONG-RANGE? Slugs are the answer. I believe my job here is done. *WHOOSHES away*

Lexi looks back to Juno after the marble vs eye comment...then murmurs under her breath "The only other sane person? Who's the first?"
Blackbird, Who's Garrett?

Juno responded without missing a beat, "Riverdale's orphanage director, Nayana."
And ditto on the Garret question.

Lexi ceeded that one to Juno with a nod. The lady was insanely level-headed, but that still qualified as sane. "Okay, so you were going to try and help me out with this thing?"
[[I'm laughing so hard right now...thanks guys!]]

Shaula: sorry, glazed over the part about the motorbike, apparently. As you're a young'n and there's no offered backstory, that'll cost you 3 AP if it's in good condition, 2 AP if it's not.
Isa: I told you this via IM, this is just to update others: the med-pack/extra stuff costs 1 AP unless you tell me why she's got a holster and military boots hanging around.
Lol, OoC RP-ing. *Terrian appears while dancing, sashays through, steals the gun, and vanishes again*
Speaking of RP-ing, I've run into this from several different people now: once you have posted something, you can't edit it just because you want to drop AP costs or because you weren't paying attention to earlier posts. You can edit because you legit said something you didn't mean to, or for grammar, or if iD or I ask you to (and of course, there's no real way for me to know what reason there is, so this is an honor system), but for AP reductions, you have two posts after one of us gives you the potential cost break, and if your character shoots their mouth off because you misunderstood someone, then you simply have to bite the bullet. The two of us will try to play by these rules, and to be lenient when your character should know something that you simply don't - asking questions here is the best way to make sure that doesn't happen ^.^

Juno nods. "Better me than Paul or Ramsden. Or Maddie. Knowing them, they'd want you to enjoy killing." She was about to show Lexi how to shoot with the gun for a second time when Terrian pops in to steal her gun.
"ARG! Why do people keep taking my gun!" She sighs before looking at Lexi. "Know what, I'm going to teach you how to use a slingshot. If you can develop a good enough aim with it, then it'll be somewhat easier for you to know how to line up a shot with a gun." She doesn't ask for Lexi's gun because she's worried the girl will lose her own gun in the apparent battle for young'uns keeping their weapons.
((No problem! I'm loving this so much.))

Sorry about that. Garrett is a very... lively (see: unstable) demolitions expert from the long-removed Battle Hymn of the Republic.
ULYSSES, however, is a very kind and considerate old man who isn't afraid to handle dire situations with a little violence (see: Shotguns).

You've probably noticed that I've edited pretty much all my posts...
This is because I suck at grammar and even after the "preview" I still get mistakes.
Also, I have to go and take contractions out of Alyssa's dialogue, she does not use them in any frequency, thus it should be noticable when she does, rather than me using them as a short cut so I don't have to write a full two words.
What can I say, I'm lazy.
If you feel I'm abusing this power to spiffy up my posts in anyway, please contact me and I'll start leaving them as they are, in all their horrible monstrously bad writing that they are!
Mwahahahahhahahahahahahaha.
But yeah, no, everything else is PEACHY KEEN JELLY BEAN!
And I do have more of a personality than just the formal one I use for people I don't know.
I PROMISE.
LET'S GET SOME MARAUDERS UP IN THIS JOINT!
Alyssa's gonna blow all her AP on hulking out. Hoo-ah!
