[angry audio - action for her crewbies]
Thank fuck that's over. The ungrateful brats.
You cook for them, you clean for them, you keep them safe from harm. And how do they repay you?
...
By holding knives at your throat and making threats to kill you. Little shits.
*Probably, that'll be the last time she tries to be nice to anyone. Her crew might have noticed that she's been keeping herself locked away and in hiding on the ship. She's not leaving for anything, at least for now*
action
*Faye raises a brow, because the idea of studying weapons seems pointless. They were to be fired and used, not just learned about. But she keeps her mouth shut, just throws a look, and begins getting to work with the canons, going through the motions slowly so the other woman can watch*
When did you get on this ship, anyway?
action
[It's said as if every country has such thing. All Champions throughout Runttera eventually went to the Institute to be recognized as a master in their skills and to upgrade themselves with knowledge, combat or both, depending what they need. Katarina was more than happy to attend it- she had access to all kinds of weapon there to both study and "play" with.
She pulls out the cannon from its place and picks up several tools as she speaks-]
Must have been few days or more. It's been a blur, can't really remember some stuff. Last thing I do know is signing a paper for Captain Grell. [Everything else is a fog. She probably got seasick and slept for some time.]
action
*Faye just repeats the words, not entirely sure whether she believes that such a place actually exists. But whateve, it wasn't like she was here to start any proper conversations*
Interesting. Maybe you should learn to keep your wits about you some more.
*If this woman didn't remember any of that, Faye was happy to keep things that way, that was certain*
Well, this is what we do with the canons, so watch carefully.
*And she begins to go throught the motions, not actually doing anything, but carefully showing her what needed to be done*
action
You sound as if you don't believe me. [Not that she blames her. She doubts that anyone around this new, crazy world could live in such war ridden country as Runttera. Maybe it's for the best as well.
The think that Katarina prided herself with is the fact that she is fast learner, especially if it's about weapons. Any kind of weapons. She watches carefully before repeating what she was showed, exactly the same way she saw it.]
action
*Faye didn't remember much of how it was that she was able to use a gun. After her coma, she'd picked him up pretty quickly, and practised. That was about all there was to it, really. A bit of training, but no studying*
Okay. Good. So you know how to use the canons. That's it then.
*She brushed her hands lightly against her thighs to get rid of any gun powder*
You're ready to fire next time we attack.
action
You can't just shoot aimlessly, you know. One- it's waste of ammunition, and two- wars aren't won with only weapons. [Finishing her own canon, she straightens herself, dusting off her hands. A nasty smile creeps up on Katarina's face-] Ironic how Institute of War was sent to make peace.
[She eyes the other woman, not noticing any blades on her, wondering where her guns are.] If you have jammed guns, you can bring them to me. I can fix them. [...most of them, she can.]
action
I know how guns works, you know. I know how to use them.
*But she looked more alert at mention of jammed guns, raising a brow at her and shaking ehr head*
What? What makes you think there's anything wrong with them? They're fine. And they're fine with me too. I can handle myself, girly.
action
[She walks over to the next canon, slowly moving it so she can inspect it before starting to clean the burnt, sticky gunpowder from the inside of it with iron brush.]
You should watch your tongue, Lady [she gives Faye a piercing look, then turns around-] for when you need help with those I just might not want to lend it. [And not even Captain won't be able to make her- she's stubborn shit like that.]
action
I think I'll live.
*Still not giving her eye contact, because she's so bored of this person. Where the hell did she come from, anyway? Faye was liking this ship just fine until now*
action
If you have nothing else to say or ask, don't be in my way.
[She's giving the woman a chance to ask or leave. She's not too bothered with being questioned about trivial stuff. And since they will be on the ship together for days to come, Kat wanted to compromise. She doesn't want friends, but she certainly doesn't want enemies on the ship either.]
action
