It's like an Easter Egg hunt, but more likely to put your eye out.

[ACTION]

*Nier hadn't had to deal with the smell, so that had been a plus. However, the SECOND half of the prank is considerably more aggravating -- with the exception of the weapons he had on him, most of his copious amount of blades and spears had disappeared. You might have seen them, actually. Behind the washer, on the roof, all over the place.

He is not pleased at all by this development.

So pardon him if he seems a little grumpy as you see him wandering around all of creation trying to pull things back together. Damnit, it was hard enough GETTING most of them.*

[Have a strange looking guy carrying what appears to be one of your spears in his arms approaching you.]

I found this in the cockpit of my machine. Judging by the similar make, I take it this is yours?

[1_eyed_dadass]

Yep. Thanks. Saved me the trouble of tracking it down. Man, I think that one was real hard to get, too.

[orewagundamda]

[hands it over.]

It was real hard to get for me, too. My Gundam isn't exactly accomadating for spears. [A joke? It seems like a rather poor attempt, like he has no idea what he's doing.]

[1_eyed_dadass]

Yeah, I suspect long, pointy sticks aren't too useful for piloting... whatever the hell a "Gun-dumb" is.

[gorgeous_gorgon]

Searching for something?

[Remember that woman from before, Nier? Now she's in her combat clothing -- with a blindfold-like thing over her eyes.]

[1_eyed_dadass]

A lotta things, actually. Damn ape ran off with most of my weapon collection and now it's all the hell over the place.

Hey, isn't it kinda hard moving around with something like that on? It was hard enough for me dealing with have ONE less eye.

[gorgeous_gorgon]

...That would explain the weapons scattered as if they were treasures in a scavenger hunt.

I can compensate. Even without my eyesight I can perceive things more clearly than most can with eyesight.

[1_eyed_dadass]

Pretty much. A pain in the goddamn ass is what it is. Almost makes me wanna string up the little bastard if I could find him.

Must have some pretty goddamn acute senses if you can compensate that well without sight. Gotta say I'm impressed.

[prototype_king]

[Nier is fortunate enough to be treated to the rare sight of the King of Heroes looking confused - and the probably welcome sight of him holding one of Nier's swords.]

This isn't a Noble Phantasm at all! How'd that get in there...?

[1_eyed_dadass]

Shenanigans. That's mine, by the way. Can I have it back?

[prototype_king]

Babil doesn't even work that way...Huh? Oh, it's yours?

[1_eyed_dadass]

Yeah. Bastard chimp that broke in last night and stunk the joint up snagged most of my collection. Been having to track 'em all down since. I just hope he didn't keep any of them.

[prototype_king]

[With a rather dismissive flip, Gilgamesh hands the sword hiltfirst back over to Nier.]

Are you a museum-piece collector, or do you honestly use that many?

[1_eyed_dadass]

Sometimes a guy's gotta switch out for something different. What can I say? Just kinda picked 'em all up over time.

[prototype_king]

You must have been at this 'hero' thing for a while.

[1_eyed_dadass]

Tch. "Hero" is entirely the wrong word for it. I'm just a guy who hits a lot of things and gets a lot of stuff to hit things with.

[hegemonstratos]

*Oh look, here's a little girl.

Who has one of your swords near her... which is kinda stabbed right through one of her shirts.

... She's not happy, just fyi.*

[1_eyed_dadass]

...aw crap. Sorry, that's one of mine. Want me to get you a new shirt or something?

[hegemonstratos]

*Einhard blinked, before taking the sword and handing it to him.

With far more expertise than you'd expect of a twelve-year-old girl.*

No. It's alright. It's not your fault. It's that... Monkey King, I think Thor called him. If anyone should buy me a new one, it's him.

[1_eyed_dadass]

Fair enough. Man, you know the bitch of this whole thing is, this bunch of stuff is so heavy I keep having to go back every time to drop 'em off.

*He takes it.*

Least it's one of the one-handers. You lose anything else yourself? Might see if I can spot it. Unless it's something personal.

[hegemonstratos]

*Einhard shook her head.*

No. I haven't lost anything. I didn't have all that much stuff here other than clothes in the first place, so it wasn't difficult to find everything.

[1_eyed_dadass]

Probably for the best. Me, I gotta lot of memories in these weapons. Kinda hard to give them up just like that.

*Even if they're mostly bad memories.*

[hegemonstratos]

*She blinked at that.*

I see. I can understand that.

*Well, somewhat. She didn't have much back home either.*

[1_eyed_dadass]

Anyway, never know if one might come in handy. There's probably gonna be more than enough fighting.

[hegemonstratos]

That is also true. If you're a sword user, it makes sense to have several of hem just in case.

[1_eyed_dadass]

Swords and spears. Used to be just swords, but I figured I'd better expand my repetoire after... things happened.

[hegemonstratos]

*Einhard stares for a moment, before she nods.*

Both type of weapons have to be useful for different situations.

*So says the girl who'd keep using only her Kaiser Arts if other people didn't force her to train with other styles as well.*

[1_eyed_dadass]

Yeah. Sometimes you want fast, sometimes you want big, and sometimes you just want stabby. So I've found, anyway.

[hegemonstratos]

*She nodded.*

Have... have you been fighting for a long time?

[1_eyed_dadass]

Long as I can remember. You sorta stop thinking about it after a while.

[hegemonstratos]

... I see.
