I know you can.

...hopefully it'll work okay. And. She can use it all right.

She learns pretty quickly.

Yeah. She's good at that.

So. How are you?

Uh. ...busy, I guess. But. That's okay. It's keeping my mind off stuff for now.

Mm. ...Do you need any help?

...maybe another opinion wouldn't hurt. Thanks.

No problem.

Where are you?

Factory.

I probably could have guessed that.

I'm a little surprised you didn't. Guess we're all a little preoccupied, though.

I just wanted to make sure.

...But yes, I am a little preoccupied.

Well, okay. Now you're sure.

Just the obvious stuff, or is there more?

I don't have room in my head for anything but the obvious right now.

That's--well, it's not exactly GOOD, I guess, but I guess that's better than it could be. Maybe?

It's...something. I haven't been this preoccupied in awhile.

I'm almost looking forward to this, actually. I wish the circumstances were different...

Something. Yeah, definitely...something.

...oh. Yeah. I guess you probably would, wouldn't you.

I'm. Well. I'm NOT.

You'll be fine. They'll probably have snipers, and I doubt they'll be as good as you, so if you can take them out, that's a sizable part of the problem gone.

...oh. Yeah, I guess that--I mean, if it comes to that, then...I can. Handle it.

The cannons are all ready to go, too. I'm pretty sure we'll have to use them; even if we manage to avoid fighting, we're still gonna have ships on our tail.

The cannons will definitely be useful, yes.

...I'm still mystified as to how Franky gets things to run on cola.

...don't ask me. He was showed me one of the engines once, in case something happened and I'd have to try and fix them by myself or something, so I kind of get the...generals, but--

Um. Anyway. This scythe. What do you think?

It's Franky. I'm never going to understand it.

...Wow. It's very...impressive. And sharp.

He just kinda has his own way of doing things, I guess. We all do, though.

...wow?

Um. But. You think it'll be, uh. Practical? For George? It's a lot lighter than it looks, but it's strong once everything locks into place. Or at least it SHOULD be. Maybe, uh. You want to try it a little?

True.

...I know, I'll stop.

Well, a scythe isn't exactly a traditional or practical weapon - when villages stage uprisings, they use scythes as weapons by turning them into things other than scythes. But this...it's a unique design. I think it could take some practice to get used to, but it's good; definitely light enough, and it seems very strong. And sharp. It's a good fit for her, I think, especially because her natural reach is so short. ...And yes, I would like to try it, if you wouldn't mind. Have you got anything I could test it on?
