The helix of her ears elongate out 2" inches ending in a tip. Her features sharpen and her figure has an unnatural, inhuman litheness that can be intellectually disturbing.

    Her skin brings to mind Mediterranean, Middle Eastern, or Asian races, though her high cheek bones and sharp facial structure don't match. Most assume she is of mixed ancestry given the pale blonde hair. Alias Mary Maniscalo.

    Okay, Jack was getting more respect from her. Circe usually had clients flustered or janky with THAT instructive method. But Jack? Just focus. Props for a Summer focused upon battle training. Good.


    "Crawl, walk, run," Circe blithely says, "I did not get good overnight. Practice...well, it makes you less shit, oh ho ho ho!" Circe is amused at the prospect. "And I," she places a hand upon her chest, "Was once," then a thumbs up, "An extremely annoying little shit. Not so little now. Try, uh, taking longer with the aiming. Don't matter if you start taking a literal minute to aim in practice. Whittle down the time later."


    "Oh, years," Circe blutntly responds to the mundy in answer. "Safety handling is important, but actual shooting experience helps a lot. More bullets, more experience, more skill." The matter of knowledge however? She had an excellent excuse for that. "And I will take props on my knowledge, and get paid for it. As well as giving them. Never got to work with one of the miniguns though," Circe shrugs. "There's only 5 of them that can be used in movies legally, so they're kind of rare."


    Which was actually true. She looked it up for a drug lord with a lot of money. And no common sense, the military keeps a close eye on those things and thousands of bullets a minute adds up in cost quite fast.


    Getting a bit bored, Circe spins around and walks off. She gets 45 rounds for her own revolver. Maybe some demonstration.


    4 successes



    "Bang."


    Then takes a full minute to line up the shot.


    8 successes



    "Aiming plus shot, equal better bang. Or you just go for dakka, but that don't HAVE that here, oh ho ho ho."

    Jack appears as a lean, sharp-featured man in his early thirties. Dark green hair, amber-brown eyes.
    Mein

    Jack’s true form is a lithe, fox-like hybrid of moss and fur: piercing golden eyes, and deep emerald hair that flows like living foliage. Vibrant russet fur and moss contrasts with bark-textured skin across his powerful frame. His hair hangs in rain-dark strands, with an always wet look.

    Jack listens in to what Circe says. Then watches as she leaves and returns with some ammo. He takes note to watch how she handles the weapon and then revels at how she simply fires her weapon at the target easily making the hits. "Wow!" is all he gets out.

    He nodded listening to the female sleeper's insights, It was clear from her previous display that she was comfortable around guns and had bundles of experience with them. “Good to know, another long term commitment and something beneficial with the way this town keeps going the way it is currently. Luckily, I am a man of patience and repetition and I think I will most likely take this up as a side hobby. You both have made this quite a memorable experience, something I shall treasure every time I hit the range now, so I thank you for it.” A light chuckle at the woman's self admittance to being a little terror. “Miss, I find that frankly hard to believe, I have grown up around kids that are little shits and I tell you some aspects do not disappear with age.” The laugh continues for a moment.

    A raise eyebrow is given to the mention of a Mini-gun. “I can imagine why those kinds of weapons are rare, but do you think they are as easy to shoot as the movies Portray? Its one thing to shoot one from a helicopter but free handing one from the hip... that need serious strength surely?

    Eyes return to his one target as the corner of his eye notices the woman walk away for a moment and return. He attempts to focus and takes his time about it before his concentration is interrupted by the woman shot that flew down the range. A second attempt is made to concentrate, as instructed, but the second shot from the woman was too impressive to ignore. It seems her companion was nearly speechless uttering only a single word at the hits. “I second that, that's some bloody good shooting.

    Taking his time once again, giving a full minute to settle and focus on the shot, deep controlled breathing taking over as he waited till he was ready to squeeze the trigger. The moment came and he went for it.

    Shoot the gun - 2 successes


    Finally seeing some success. “Hell yea.

    "Dude," she looks at the mortal, "I am no longer LITTLE. Now I'm a big shit, oh ho ho ho!"


    "Much strength, a back brace stand, and a LOT of money for the thousands of blanks a second," which was the real prohibition on those kind of guns. Military spending was one of the few that could eat the cost.


    "Thank yew, thank yew," she says, "Time and effort boys. Time and effort. Put in the effort, time flies. To escape the bullets, oh ho ho ho."


    ooc: Fade out, scene is past time. Sorry for late reply, it took a while to get connected. Thank you for the great scene.
