- (8:44:01 AM) trustingTotally: trustingTotally [Tt] began espering abrasiveCaliginist [AC]
- (8:44:07 AM) abrasiveCaliginist: K
- (8:44:11 AM) trustingTotally: Hello, you the guy who lost an eye?
- (8:45:07 AM) abrasiveCaliginist: What? I'm afraid you have me at a disadvantage. Ordinarily, it's polite to introduce yourself first, right?
- (8:45:40 AM) trustingTotally: Well this depends on whether or not you wish to be introduced. I am Soze.
- (8:45:57 AM) abrasiveCaliginist: Hm. Harken.
- (8:46:04 AM) abrasiveCaliginist: So what about my eye?
- (8:46:08 AM) abrasiveCaliginist: Why do you ask?
- (8:46:27 AM) trustingTotally: I am curios as to whether or not the claims of others are accurate and that you lost it re-entering a lost fight.
- (8:46:58 AM) abrasiveCaliginist: Re-entering a lot fight? It was hardly a fight.
- (8:47:11 AM) abrasiveCaliginist: A jackass teleported into my face and clawed it out.
- (8:47:39 AM) trustingTotally: Did you do something to deserve it?
- (8:48:53 AM) abrasiveCaliginist: Seventy-eight kills and eighteen and a half buildings burned to the ground. I would say yes.
- (8:49:49 AM) trustingTotally: I will stop this conversation there then. Do you know of any reliable secondary weapons for a Barett XM109 AMPR?
- (8:50:17 AM) abrasiveCaliginist: Oh? What sort of weapon is it?
- (8:50:50 AM) abrasiveCaliginist: If it's a larger rifle, you'll want a sidearm or knife you can procure in relatively short order if you get jumped.
- (8:51:09 AM) abrasiveCaliginist: I personally carry a revolver.
- (8:51:17 AM) trustingTotally: ... A Barett brand XM series, model 109, Anti-Materiel Personel Rifle.
- (8:51:47 AM) abrasiveCaliginist: Anti-materiel?! What are you doing carrying around a piece like that?!
- (8:52:01 AM) abrasiveCaliginist: What, do you shoot armored vehicles for fun?!
- (8:52:17 AM) trustingTotally: ... No. For training.
- (8:52:52 AM) abrasiveCaliginist: You're training with an anti-materiel rifle? I don't buy it.
- (8:53:32 AM) trustingTotally: I would send you a picture, but I do not own a camera, it is unimportant for my training.
- (8:53:47 AM) abrasiveCaliginist: That is some serious firepower. The recoil is liable to break your shoulder, and against a man-sized target? Each bullet is wasted.
- (8:54:17 AM) abrasiveCaliginist: At a thousand yards, maybe that's good. For most engagements, though? You could do with a more standard high-power rifle.
- (8:54:30 AM) trustingTotally: This is why I need a secondary.
- (8:54:32 AM) abrasiveCaliginist: Unless you're planning on, I don't know, assassinating someone.
- (8:54:49 AM) trustingTotally: Assassination isn't the point. Taking out planes, tanks, and walls is.
- (8:55:12 AM) abrasiveCaliginist: Okay, so you're a soldier.
- (8:55:21 AM) trustingTotally: In training. Yes.
- (8:57:14 AM) abrasiveCaliginist: Handgun. If you're a scrub, you'll probably want a striker-fired version; trigger pull is the same every time.
- (8:57:55 AM) trustingTotally: Handgun, knife, and traps are all my current options, but, handgun seems the most reliable given how powerful my XM109 is... hmm...
- (8:58:23 AM) abrasiveCaliginist: Bear in mind:
- (8:58:39 AM) abrasiveCaliginist: With an anti-materiel rifle, in a pinch, you may have to leave it behind in a hurry.
- (8:59:40 AM) trustingTotally: That's why I love my Specibus.
- (9:00:51 AM) trustingTotally: besides, worst comes to worst, I do physical training every day.
- (9:01:33 AM) abrasiveCaliginist: I tried physical training once, and it was awful. I'm too lazy to be bothered with that stuff.
- (9:01:47 AM) trustingTotally: I couldn't skip it if I tried.
- (9:02:21 AM) abrasiveCaliginist: The promise of gunfire is enough to pacify most people. Actual gunfire is enough to pacify the rest.
- (9:04:30 AM) trustingTotally: Assuming they don't attempt to pacify you with bullets, poison, containment, starvation, decapitation, waterboarding, psychiatry, nagging, or other causes of mistreatment and death. As a habit, i practice surviving at least two of these daily.
- (9:05:05 AM) abrasiveCaliginist: Oh man, what about arson?
- (9:05:14 AM) abrasiveCaliginist: Why aren't you training to survive that anyway?
- (9:05:51 AM) trustingTotally: Fire isn't something I have to deal with commonly. Something sets ablaze, get away. Wall ablaze, shoot it down, sneak through. Material posessions can be replaced.
- (9:06:21 AM) abrasiveCaliginist: Nah, but that's not how arson works.
- (9:06:30 AM) abrasiveCaliginist: There's more to surviving arson than that anyway.
- (9:07:35 AM) trustingTotally: Anyone who resorts to arson is generally an idiot ^.^
- (9:08:38 AM) abrasiveCaliginist: See, that's funny coming from a wannabe who practices surviving being decapitated.
- (9:09:09 AM) trustingTotally: That's one I do not practice.
- (9:09:14 AM) trustingTotally: Along with bullets,.
- (9:09:21 AM) abrasiveCaliginist: Yeah, but it was in the list!
- (9:09:33 AM) trustingTotally: I never said I practiced all of them.
- (9:09:40 AM) trustingTotally: Only about two of them constantly
- (9:09:44 AM) abrasiveCaliginist: So now, you look like a wannabe tool with a rifle that probably more often than not sprains his shoulder when he fires it.
- (9:10:00 AM) abrasiveCaliginist: You fire the gun, real cute like with an angelic look on your face.
- (9:10:04 AM) trustingTotally: That was when I was ten. Thanks.
- (9:10:15 AM) abrasiveCaliginist: "Yeah, I could do that to another person," you say, optimistic and cheery.
- (9:10:21 AM) abrasiveCaliginist: Then you do it to someone.
- (9:10:27 AM) abrasiveCaliginist: Where are you then?
- (9:10:34 AM) trustingTotally: ... Speaking from experience?
- (9:10:42 AM) trustingTotally: And to answer the question. I am still who I was. A soldier.
- (9:11:33 AM) abrasiveCaliginist: You're not a soldier. You're a hopped up little wiggler with an unnecessarily large weapon who thinks he can save the world.
- (9:12:00 AM) abrasiveCaliginist: So go on and on about your technical knowledge. Technical knowledge doesn't make gunfights, cully.
- (9:12:16 AM) trustingTotally: I don't think I can save the world. I think i can save myself. Also, I don't think i'd qualify myself as little. Also my name isn't Cully, for the second time in the last week.
- (9:15:31 AM) trustingTotally: I would like to apologize for the arson thing. It clearly offended you beyond reason. Please, take your beloved (compensating) revolver and practice in a range a bit, before you do something to deserve your hand taken off next.
- (9:15:47 AM) abrasiveCaliginist: Ohhh that's precious!
- (9:15:59 AM) abrasiveCaliginist: A "trained" killer versus an actual killer!
- (9:16:29 AM) abrasiveCaliginist: Look at you, cully! You have stones! You've got the fire in your belly'
- (9:16:34 AM) trustingTotally: Well. You're saying it like you haven't even begun training.
- (9:16:37 AM) abrasiveCaliginist: What you haven't felt yet is fear!
- (9:16:41 AM) trustingTotally: Once again, my name isn't cully.
- (9:16:57 AM) trustingTotally: And yes. Yes I have. You have yet to meet my mother on a weekend.
- (9:17:56 AM) abrasiveCaliginist: You're bringing your mother into this? You won't have your mother in a gunfight.
- (9:18:00 AM) abrasiveCaliginist: It'll be just you.
- (9:18:02 AM) abrasiveCaliginist: And me.
- (9:18:16 AM) abrasiveCaliginist: And I'll enjoy it immensely.
- (9:18:17 AM) trustingTotally: Honestly she'd be there, even if just to shoot me in the leg to give me more of a challenge.
- (9:19:15 AM) abrasiveCaliginist: Uhuh. Sure. "I graduated top of my class in the threshecutioners."
- (9:19:18 AM) abrasiveCaliginist: I believe it.
- (9:19:38 AM) abrasiveCaliginist: "I'm trained in gorilla warfare."
- (9:20:22 AM) abrasiveCaliginist: That about right?
- (9:20:38 AM) trustingTotally: Assuming that's even relevant to your skills, I'll gladly, assuming I get the chance, send fragments of your skull through a wall. That sums up my opinion of you right now.
- (9:21:03 AM) abrasiveCaliginist: You haven't a prayer, cully.
- (9:21:04 AM) trustingTotally: An arsonic idiot with a gun. You're worse than the average hillbilly, and that's an insult to hillbillies.
- (9:21:45 AM) abrasiveCaliginist: Insecurities upon insecurities! I'd almost say you were scared of actual combat!
- (9:23:03 AM) abrasiveCaliginist: All the training in the world, and when the bullets start flying? They shit their trousers.
- (9:23:09 AM) abrasiveCaliginist: I'd know. I've been there.
- (9:23:30 AM) trustingTotally: Fear is the friend of survival. Courage is the friend of survivors. Find yours, then we'll talk again.
- (9:23:38 AM) abrasiveCaliginist: Your gimp leg and my one eye. I'd say it's even.
- (9:23:50 AM) trustingTotally: trustingTotally [TT] ceased espering abrasiveCaliginist [AG]
