If there's anyone here who needs to learn how to use a gun, I'd be willing to instruct.

Gaby wants it made clear that the guns are for missions only. If we get caught with them, they won't be able to get us out of that easily.

[ or at all, but bellamy doesn't think it's beneficial to be that blunt. ]

What's to learn? You make sure the safety's off, you point, and you shoot.

@clarke.griffin

[strove]

Not quite.

If you want to hope you get lucky every single time you use one, sure, that's all you need to know.
If you want to actually be a good shot, then there's more to it than that.

@clarke.griffin

[strove]

How do you define "missions" here?

[This is a Joke.]

[deployed]

I'd say they were anything we were undertaking on their behalf.

[ Very Seriously.

but he's not a joiner, so who knows. ]

@eugenides.attolis

[kleptocratic]

Yes. I like lessons.

[ This is not precisely true. ]

I only have one hand. Will that be a problem?

[ It was with the guns back home, slow to load and with heavy recoil. Which is why he'd never bothered to teach himself to use them again. But here things were different. ]

[deployed]

It might be. I don't know for sure.

We can work through it together if you want to learn. We might need to get creative.

@daisy.johnson

[evite]

does that mean gaby + co have access to shooting ranges?

[ she knows how to shoot, but a round of target practice isn't a bad thing. ]

@gaby

[vns]

See below.

[deployed]

I'm finding my own space for this. It's easy enough to start with the basics while I check for somewhere far enough off grid.

@gaby

[vns]

Let's make three things clear.

1. Bellamy approached me about this on his own. I just don't want you running around with guns like morons.

2. This isn't a Morningstar venture. This is a Bellamy Blake venture. Don't equate the two. Bellamy is just making sure to pass along the good word to not be idiots about your new toys.

3. I'm your handler. That means I keep your asses out of trouble. But I don't run shit for Morningstar. Never have. Never will. I'm a cog, same as you.

[deployed]

[ hey girl ]

You don't have to worry about me getting them into trouble.

[ promises he theoretically can't keep, but will try like hell to make good on. ]

@matches.malone

[reneger]

what if we want to get up to trouble?

@anonymous

[mercurio]

ok i'm new on the whole 'existing in this new dimension' situation so: missions??

[deployed]

Better to ask @gaby
I didn't join up. I wouldn't be the best person to explain.

@gaby

[vns]

Morningstar is a rebel organization, but we aren't anyone's favorites around here. So, once I open that door for you – don't shout it out.

It's optional.

No, before you ask, you don't have to join. No one is obligated. That'd be fucked up.

@john.murphy

[wrackful]

What, no axes this time?

[deployed]

I can try to get my hands on one for old times sake.

@kate.bishop

[fledges]

i don't need the lessons, but are there any bows hanging around this place?
it's like no one appreciates the classics

[deployed]

You'll have to ask @gaby what Morningstar has to issue.
All I've seen since I got here are guns. Seems like bows are one of the things that've been phased out. Maybe there are some eccentrics that prefer them, but I haven't heard of anyone like that yet.

@katelin.philips

[covertness]

i've fired a gun a few times before but i could do with a refresher lesson

[ bobbi morse does not need a refresher, but katelin philips, for all that she's an army brat, hasn't fired a weapon in a long time. this'll grant her some semblance of plausible deniability. ]

not here.

[retravel]

[ WHY ARE YOU SO GOOD AT THIS ]

@kylo.ren

[warfares]

I've some experience with similar weapons.

[ though far from an expert by even the most generous stretch of the imagination. needs must, as the saying goes. ]

Any insight you could offer would be appreciated.

[deployed]

I can help.
What do you mean by a similar weapon?

@leo.fitz

[retravel]

It's good of you to offer.
Maybe we can rig up some targets.

[ already considering shooting range and moving target designs nbd ]

[deployed]

I have an abandoned building far enough away that I think it'll be unnoticed and secure.

I was going to make do with marked x's on the wall, but anything better can only make this easier for people. What did you have in mind? Paper targets?

@markus.manfred

[saviorexe]

I'd like to practice, where both accuracy and handling is concerned.

[Strange for Markus, maybe, who prefers to avoid the use of firearms unless absolutely necessary. But always better safe than sorry. Always better to be able to defend oneself if needed, and to possess the right skills to do so.

He doesn't know how much of the above has suffered due to being sequestered in a human body, after all.]

[deployed]

I'd have thought that wouldn't be a problem for you.

[ which is unfair, but still. bellamy just assumes an ai wouldn't need the help. ]

But I can give you the space to practice in, and any help I can.
