text; un: harls

so I need a job because my shopping addiction is waaaay beyond this stipend thingy

skills include gymnastics, psychiatry, kicking ass and taking names, finding lost things

I figure I could be a great mercenary or bounty hunter or hitwoman but IDK if those things are actual jobs you can get here

dog walker? bartender? I dunno!

any suggestions are welcome!
tech_nically: (riiiight)

Sure!

My quarters in Central Command. Where shall I find you?
tech_nically: (it's just popcorn)

[personal profile] tech_nically 2022-10-02 10:02 pm (UTC)(link)
Convenient. All right, I'll meet you there.
tech_nically: (updating my profile)

[A minor oversight. Tech isn't too worried as he doubts there are many people just hanging out in the lobby looking like they're waiting for someone.

He doesn't take too much longer, arriving a little after Harley. Simply in long-sleeves, pants and a jacket besides, it probably would have been easy to overlook him in a crowd. He's tapping at his tablet even as he steps out into the lobby.

Network guy...

[He glances over, fixing his goggles.]

I'm assuming you're the former psychiatrist-sometimes-bounty-hunter who pulls weapons out of thin air?
tech_nically: (he wants what?)

[Reading about someone saying they can do such a thing is definitely no comparison to seeing it in action. The clone's brows lift behind his goggles.]

Impressive.

[He reaches over to shake her hand, giving her a nod.]

Tech. I'm not quite sure what I was expecting, even given how plainly your ability seems to work.
tech_nically: (Not a total waste)

[personal profile] tech_nically 2022-10-04 06:03 am (UTC)(link)
[He'd have to admit even her list of experiences is an impressive mix. While he had no idea how she sounded, it's easy to see that he way of typing and speaking reflect each other for... perkiness. Yes, that's probably the best word for it.]

Certainly. I'd consider a field test on the functionality of these weapons but I doubt the rebels would approve of use of firearms in their command center.
tech_nically: (not now too busy)

[personal profile] tech_nically 2022-10-04 06:19 am (UTC)(link)
[A bat is definitely not a normal weapon of choice, and while the design is a foreign one to him, it's not difficult to figure out what it is. Tech blinks at it before taking it in hand, looking completely unused to wielding such a thing. He hefts it in testing the weight.]

Undoubtedly solid. Hm. The shooting range won't suffice for a rocket launcher but I don't think we'd need to go that far. Lead the way.

[He offers the bat back.]
tech_nically: (riiiight)

[People here have strange tastes in what they obviously consider comfortable clothing, but then again, perhaps he's the strange one for thinking it feels weird not being in full armor day in and out.

Tech nods at Harley as she leads the way.
]

Yes. It's a suitable enough place to test the weapons the rebels provide. I prefer to know what to expect of weapons beforehand. Normally I'd have a pair of pistols so making use of a random pair is quite different.
tech_nically: (shall I kill them Hunter)

[personal profile] tech_nically 2022-10-05 05:40 am (UTC)(link)
[...then again maybe armor isn't that strange.]

Hm. True, but at least for me, I'd rather know if a gun has a tendency to travel one way or another, or how responsive it is to the trigger. You don't really want to find out such things in the middle of a firefight.

[Tech gives her a nod, stepping inside. There's something about her bounciness that he has to smile about. Okay, maybe there's something just a little disturbing about how simply she can do that and still produce a pair of guns or what have you.

He takes the guns, brows lifting.
]

Hm. Slugs or energy-based?

[He aims at the target with both, firing one and then the other.]
tech_nically: (amused)

[personal profile] tech_nically 2022-10-05 05:56 am (UTC)(link)
[His smile then might be just a tiny bit smug. Why yes, he is smart, thank you for noticing. But he's more pleased at her assessment on weapon preference as he's fired the weapons.]

I don't think I do too badly for stationary targets, at least. These are actually quite nice. I do prefer energy-based. Guns with physical rounds seem to have more of a kick.
tech_nically: (he wants what?)

[personal profile] tech_nically 2022-10-05 06:18 am (UTC)(link)
[Just so offhandedly being told he can keep them is clearly unexpected, even if they were literally pulled out of thin air.]

Really?

[Well, it's certainly one way to see if they last. They look and operate as normal guns otherwise. Perhaps they could be maintained as such.]

I'm not sure about these specifically, but blaster pistols like my DeeCee-Seventeens would hold fifty shots to a power pack.

[Given he's not even really sure where she's digging around, watching is something of a fascinating if not weird thing. He must not have been expecting much by way of results as he's surprised when Harley comes up with so much.]

That is extremely useful. And mind-boggling but I suppose it's not the only thing that doesn't make sense here.

[Tech shrugs and ejects one of the cartridges from a gun, pocketing it so he can pop in one of the newly produced ones into place. He takes several shots with the thing with a faint but satisfied smile.]

Yes, I think they work just fine.
tech_nically: (amused)

[personal profile] tech_nically 2022-10-10 10:36 pm (UTC)(link)
Quite so. Your ability will give you a definite advantage.

[Tech tucks the extra cartridges into his side pouch, nodding at Harley as he holsters the guns behind him.]

Thank you. I'll do that. If you need anything fixed or might think of any sort of devices you'd like that might be of use, I can try to put something together. It's the least I can do in return.
