Mao's Battlebook: Entry 001 ♪ action

[blazing_heart]

<sub>[Hey Luceti!

There's this one redhead, who's walking around the village as if he was looking for someone. He doesn't really seem lost, but judging from clothes he's wearing, he's obviously new here.

After a moment of searching though, he scratches the back of his head and makes a thoughtful look. It seems he won't find his friends here. But they're okay for sure, so there's nothing to worry.

And so, instead, Mao turns around and walks up to the first person he sees.]</sub>

Excuse me! Can you tell me where am I?

Well it's what I thought anyway...

[Who even knew there were different worlds out there anyway? It's still pretty confusing to think there are hundreds of different places out there and they might not all be so similar to his own.]

They should be in another shop. I can take you there too if you want. What do you use?

[blazing_heart]

_{[It is confusing, but isn't it kind of fun to meet all kinds of people from all kinds of other worlds? That's what Mao think anyway.]}

I use tonfa!

[accepted]

...Tonfa? What's that?

[There are weapons outside of swords, axes, staves and spears? Madness.]

[blazing_heart]

You don't know?

_{[gasp! There's a lot of other kind of weapons than those!]}

[accepted]

A-Am I meant to?!

[NO IT CAN'T BE TRUE next you'll be saying tarot cards are weapons too]

[blazing_heart]

I guess not many people use tonfa...

_{[But of course they are weapons! You didn't know that either~?]}

[accepted]

Guess not. You still haven't told me a tonfa is.

[No!! Sob. What happened to the good old sword.]

[blazing_heart]

They are... uh, sticks with handles? ...I guess that doesn't sound too impressive, huh? I'd be best if I could just show them to you.

_{[But there are a lot of people who use swords!]}

[accepted]

Alright then, we'll go look for them now. You find your clothes somewhere around here yet?

[Well there needs to be more sword users and less sticks with handles users!]

[blazing_heart]

_{[looking around. Oh, there they are!]}

Yup~ Found them!

_{[But swords are boring!]}

[accepted]

Great! We can go look for your 'sticks' once you've got them on.

[But you can slash stuff with them! What good are sticks. With handles. He'll have to see to believe how impressive these sticks can be.]

[blazing_heart]

They're called "tonfa", not "sticks"!

_{[tonfa are awesome!]}

[accepted]

Right, right. Tonfa, not sticks.

[Caius turns and walks outside to wait for Mao. Also swords are awesome-er!]

[blazing_heart]

That's right. And remember about that.

<sub>[Following you.

And never. Tonfa are the most awesome!]</sub>

[accepted]

If I forget you can just remind me what those sticks with handles of yours are again anyway.

[Yeah he's teasing now.

...Can't use sword rain with tonfa...]

[blazing_heart]

If you forget that just means you have a really poor memory~

<sub>[teasing. he can do that, too.

...uh... But I can do a lot of other things! says someone who spams spells all the time]</sub>

[accepted]

It's not that poor I guess... Fine fine, tonfa. See, tonfa, I've remembered it.

[Too bad he can't take being teased himself--

Suuure you can. Can you melee all the things?]

[blazing_heart]

_{[He chuckles. You can tease, but can't take being teased?]}

Okay, okay.

_{[Sure I can! kind of]}

[accepted]

[I can take being teased shut up!! 8< ...Okay no.]

So, weapon shop. Weapon shop...

[Taking his sweet time trying to remember which way to go.]

Wait, it's over this way. Maybe I should read that guide sometime. [Oh!] Hey, you have a journal, right?

[Lies! sort of. /melees all the things better]

[blazing_heart]

You really do have a poor memory, don't you?

_{[journal, journal. He hands it to Caius.]}

You mean this?

_{[Whatever. You can't use spells!]}

[accepted]

Hey!! It's not that bad! I only got here a day or two ago so...

[mutter mutter. Taking the journal, flipping through it and finding the guide for Mao.]

Yeah, this thing. You can use it to talk to people and it has a lot of information on this place and what's going on in it.

[Spells are overrated. Enjoy your cast time~]

[blazing_heart]

If you say so~

_{[he looks at the journal now.]}

I didn't know it was such a useful thing.

_{[cast time in Rebirth is pretty short actually >:D ]}

[accepted]

[Damn right he says so-- Ahem.]

You wouldn't think so, seeing as it's just some book, but it's actually pretty handy for talking to other people and finding things out.

[He should still read it himself sometime of course...

o h o^o welp. there's still a cast time!! don't have to wait for sword rain!]

[blazing_heart]

You have one of those, too?

_{[my spell's stronger than your sword rain!]}

[accepted]

Pretty sure everyone around here has one of these, or at least everyone I've spoken to has one at any rate.

[So hey, weapon shop? Weapon shop! Totally walking in first and keeping the door open again.]

Your tonfa should be around here somewhere. If not they might show up in a day or two instead.

[yeah well my beast form is stronger than your... disaster roar!!]
