“It’s more like swinging them at the danger but throwing sounds cooler.” Mint said with a small grin, “I was actually inspired by your team at the Vytal Festival.. I never considered using it to throw allies until I saw that fight.”

Mint paused realizing that might be a sore subject, “sorry, I probably shouldn’t have mentioned that..” She knew how the transfer students were still traumatized from everything that happened, she could imagine that Ruby’s team was also going through those feelings and possibly more.

“Well, I’m glad that we inspired you to do something new with your weapon. You never really know what’ll work unless you try it out, right?” It was true, the Vytal Festival was a sore subject-- but it was nice to think about the good memories from it instead of the bad ones.

“It’s okay.” She doesn’t want her to feel bad for mentioning it. Besides, it was nice to know that her team inspired someone! It’s those kinds of things that make you feel all good inside that she’d like to hear right now. 

[grimmattack]

dcscrtribbons​:

Mint let out a soft chuckle, “it’s also useful for pulling allies out of danger or throwing them into it. I find it fun throwing a jackalope up at a ravager.” She mused softly.

“I don’t think you got carried away, its an expression of yourself so it must be perfect.” Mint noted, Theodore had told her that weapons were an extension of your soul. Some people’s souls were simple ribbon whips, others were gun scythes!

“Woahhh-- you can throw people? That’s so coooool!” Ruby guessed that made sense if it was strong enough to also pull people directly out of any danger, but she can’t help but be amazed at the idea of someone being thrown into a fight..like a cool surprise attack.

“Well..thanks! I’d like to think I made the perfect weapon for me, at least..” She doesn’t think she’d want anything else to work with.

What a… simple way of looking at things. Had Red made it all the way to Atlas with that mentality? Clearly, actually. She was standing right there. A long suffering sigh escapes him as he waves off the first question. It should be clear. He hadn’t had a false leg before he’d been eaten. That would’ve been a bit more obvious in his escapes.

“Fine, Red. Just keep that scythe pointed away from me.”

He makes sure his pant legs back in place before taking another puff from his cigar, watching the teenager with critical eyes. They hadn’t seen each other for at least a year, could you blame him for studying her? Making sure she doesn’t ruin any heists he might plan by figuring out what she can do now. Not that he really had any heists in mind, but old habits die hard. Just like he still scanned every building he set foot in for good escape routes and things of value.

“I live here because I was born in Atlas, Red. After that grimm, I came back. Atlas is the leading nation in prosthetic development too, which is also a pretty good reason.”

We’re not going to get in the topic of how he’s technically a good guy now. Or that Ironwood hates his guts for cheating the system.

“Fine.” She holds onto Crescent Rose and keeps it close, clearly not feeling all that safe during this conversation. She’d like to think that she was way better at fighting after all the time that’s passed, but it still stands that she doesn’t want to do that right now. He ignores her one question, so she assumes that, yes, the Grimm did get his leg.

“That..makes sense, I guess.” She’s not really sure what else he would do..at least nothing that she can really think of..

“So you came home..you avoided my question about the criminal reason thing.” Was he still a bad guy? She doesn’t know. “I just want to figure out who my enemies are..and who my not-enemies are.” Not that she’d automatically trust him if he was a good guy now, but at least it was something.

dcscrtribbons​:

Mint nodded in response, “I can change them out but I prefer to keep Wind, Ice, Fire, and Electric dust packed into her, they’re very useful in the desert and against the Grimm of Sanus.”

Ruby’s excitement was very refreshing to her, in Vacuo most people kept to their own or their tribe so a friendly face excited about her weapon was a new experience and she wanted to answer any questions she had.

“I can extend her ribbon to 45 feet, I was around 9 I think? I was either about to turn 9 or just turned 9.”

Seeing Ruby’s weapon, Mint’s eyes widened in amazement. Ruby must be super strong to handle a weapon of that size so effectively. “It’s amazing! I don’t think I could handle anything like it!” She complemented with a grin, “it must have taken so much training to master it!”

“That makes sense! I can shoot Dust rounds, I kind of just carry a bunch at a time, though..” Given that she’s been traveling, it’s probably a lot easier that way. She can’t prepare for every scenario, but she can at least be ready!

“Forty-five feet..that’s a lot longer than I was thinking!” Though it probably was really useful if you didn’t want to be close to your opponent...and most people like to keep a pretty good distance from most Grimm...uuunless you were attacking them with a sword, or a big scythe, or..well, you get the point.

“Oh, I mean..yeah! I always wanted to be a Huntress, and when I got to make my own weapon I guess I got a little carried away..not that I’d change anything about my baby, she’s basically the perfect weapon....for me, that is!” Obviously not everyone wanted a giant scythe that was also a gun to work with, but still!

“It would’ve taken way more training if my uncle wasn’t there to teach me.”

[grimmattack]

candlewick-corporation​:

Well, if it wasn’t Red.

His thought flicker back to their last encounter. To the grimm. Then to the here && now. Here, in a back alley in Atlas. Roman leaning against a wall with a lit cigar in his mouth, pantleg hiked up because his prosthetic had been making some concerning crunching noises. He’d be inclined to say it couldn’t handle Atlas’s immense cold,  but really, it probably had to do with the fact he had just had a good jaunt through Atlas, absolutely not avoiding the authorities. Not in any way. He most certainly wasn’t indulging in old criminal habits. No sir.

Take cigar from lips, exhale smoke. Roman turns his faunus ears toward Ruby, to better hear her. All in all, the man would be unthreatening if Ruby didn’t know better. But she does, and as he reaches down to put his pant leg back in it’s proper place, she can see Melodic Cudgel leaned up against the wall too.

“Well, Red. I happen to live here.”

“Live here?” Ruby wants to add on that he’s not supposed to be living at all, y’know, because she saw him get eaten-- but her thoughts are distracted when she notices the prosthetic as he puts his pant leg back down. “...Did the Grimm do that?”

There’s a lot of questions she has, and all of them run through her mind at once..but she’s not here to question him. "You don’t attack me...I won’t attack you.” Her gaze goes from him to Melodic Cudgel.

Really, she’s not looking for a fight..she just wanted to go out and get some air. Why does everything have to be so difficult all the time? “Does your living here have a..a...” she furrows a brow and frowns, trying to think of the proper words, “...a criminal reason!?” That’s not right, but good enough. He gets what she means..at least she hopes so.

dcscrtribbons​:

Mint was surprised when the huntress approached, and was even more surprised by her question. Compared to others, Mint felt her weapon was so bland. She picked the small baton off her hip.

“Oh, this is Soie.” She said before pressing one of the buttons and swung it downward to extend the ribbon. Soie’s ribbon sat at 12 feet long currently, it was her generic form for basic combat. “Headmaster Theodore helped me make her when I was a kid.. I didn’t know anything about weapons or fighting, I just liked to dance.” She explained simply.

“These buttons infuse different dust into it, and these two extend and retract the ribbon.” She told her before smiling softly, “this isn’t even it’s full length!”

Ruby is clearly interested the entire time, examining Soie with that normal Ruby curiosity that she shows when seeing a new weapon. “So the ribbon can be infused with different dust? OH! What’s the full length? How old do you think you were when you made it? How--” she pauses, and gives a small, nervous grin. “-- Uh..sorry, I’m a big fan of seeing new weapons!"

She presents Crescent Rose, converting it to it’s scythe form and propping it up beside herself. “Speaking of weapons, this is my weapon, Crescent Rose! I made it when I was at Signal Academy.” Which felt like a really long time ago now..even though it really wasn’t. She converts it to it’s rifle form to hold it a bit better. “..If you know how to use it’s size and stuff to your advantage, it’s really useful in a fight.” She idly runs her thumb across one of the many scrapes and cuts on her weapon.

“I guess I was a little inspired by my Uncle Qrow’s weapon.”

“Roman? I thought you..” She thought he was very much gone-- though it’s not a surprise she was wrong, that didn’t put her any more at ease..and she was on her own right now, which only made her more nervous about this interaction. She holds her weapon close and keeps her distance, standing in a way where she could run if she needed to.

“What are you doing here? I mean-- here here.”

[grimmattack]

@dcscrtribbons​ \\ starter call

“Sorry to bother you, but, uhm...I noticed your weapon, and..” she taps her fingers together, raising her brows. “..I’ve never seen a weapon like that.” And Ruby’s seen a lot of weapons-- especially at this point! "Did you make it yourself?"

[grimmattack]

@grxmmwxtch​​ \\ starter call​

When she discovered that Salem wanted to see her-- Cinder’s hesitant. Because if she’s in trouble, she can probably guess what happens after that. But she can’t just avoid Salem..for multiple reasons. So she approaches, click of her heels ever softer as she nears her-- while Cinder loves to play the leading role, she’s well aware of her position on this board, given how often she loved to remind her (she’d never admit it was her fault for stepping out of line and disobeying orders.)

When she’s close enough, she kneels, resting her weight on one knee as she focuses her gaze to the ground. “....You wanted to see me, my queen..?” She glances up at her for only a moment, before looking away again.
