◑ 001 [video]
Good day, Exsilium. My name is Naoto Shirogane. [The English is formal and passable, but there's still a hint of an accent and a problem with the '-lium' that sounds more like a '-rium' that reveal this rather androgynous teenager to be a non-native speaker. ... If the name wasn't any indication, anyway.]
I must say, while I'm just to being out on the field, a war is something I have never been to before. Admittedly, this is also the first time I have heard of sentient weapons. [Stumbles over 'sentient' too. She had a hard time understanding that word when the woman who greeted her informed her of that-- that certainly wasn't part of her English vocabulary, and she had needed to carefully analyze the other words in her speech to get the gist of it.]
What I do not understand is how a weapon not from their own supply can become such a thing. Their 'technology', yes, but as far as I can tell, they have yet to do anything to my weapon.
Hmm... [Thoughtful look!] If I may-- what weapon do you have, and how has it changed, if it already has?
[Notice the teenager's not talking about the Initiative and being stuck here to do someone else's dirty work, because really, Naoto thinks it goes without saying that they're all pawns and ways to get home will be a big secret to all of them, what with the woman before being mum on that and whatnot.]
Thank you.

Thank you.

To find the right equipment, we should first become familiar with this place. Because we are both new, it may take a little time.

Hey, what weapon did you end up picking up for yourself anyways?
video;
video;
So, what did you do back home before they dragged you here?
video;
I offer my services to the police when they have difficult cases.
video;
Are you more like Dick Tracy or Columbo?
video;
I cant tell you that, because I have never seen any of their adventures.
video;
That's fine, I'll just assume you're like Dick Tracey. Shoot first, ask questions when everyone is dead.
video;
I may not be acquainted with Dick Tracey and Columbo, but I have heard of works that star them-- although most stories I know of are Japanese detective fiction.
video;
So, detective, what sort of side arm do you carry?
video;
I have a Nanbu 2-- a pistol used by the Japanese police forces. It's a .38 double-action revolver.
video;
Are you a good shot?
video;
video;
Well, this I got to see.
If you're more than just talk, and I'm not rusty, I say we watch each other's backs for a bit. What do you say?
video;
What do you have, and what did you do in your world? [It's only fair she gets to ask too.]
video;
I got my Webly Mk IV. Picked it up during the war. Not sure what they did to it, but it used to pack a punch. I'll see if it still does soon enough.
As for what I did? The short answer is I ran a company that invented technology and used that knowledge to deal with world ending phenomenon in our spare time. Science to fight science.
video;
Briefly she wonders if by 'war' he meant either the first or second World War but considering how little she knows of his world, she wont assume.]
Did such phenomenon appear?
video;
Ex-Nazi scientists, occult mad men, centuries old steam powered solar laser tanks...
It's a busy area to specialize in.
