The Roof - Thursday [after classes]

[wantstocheer.livejournal.com]

There were storms rolling in and Claire had the urge to sit on the roof and watch them.

Yes, it was a little on the crazy side, but she was feeling restless today for some reason, even after her early morning run with Jon.

"Which makes sense," she said. "Do you have any kind of healing ability?"

[sorella-vecchia.livejournal.com]

Triela shook her head. "Actually, I don't heal as well as most people. The bones and muscles are artificial so they don't heal right. If I actually do get hurt I have to get repairs."

Claire nodded. "Wow. Can the clinic here do that kind of stuff?"

[sorella-vecchia.livejournal.com]

"I don't think anyone there is trained for the sort of replacements I'd need. And as far as I know no one outside the Agency even has the necessary parts to do it with."

"So what happens if you get hurt here?"

[sorella-vecchia.livejournal.com]

"I need to go back to Rome." Triela shrugged. "But so far that hasn't happened."

[wantstocheer.livejournal.com]

"Well, that's good at least," Claire said.

[sorella-vecchia.livejournal.com]

"I'm tough enough that something pretty awful would have to happen for me to need repairs." She grinned. "I'm mostly bulletproof, after all."

[wantstocheer.livejournal.com]

"That must come in handy," Claire said with a smirk.

She was essentially bulletproof too. Or, well, getting shot only slowed her down for a minute or so most of the time.

[sorella-vecchia.livejournal.com]

"It does. Especially when people shoot at you."

[wantstocheer.livejournal.com]

"Do people shoot at you often?"

[sorella-vecchia.livejournal.com]

"It's not uncommon. Usually I shoot them first, though."

[wantstocheer.livejournal.com]

Claire nodded. "So you're good with guns? I was kind of uncomfortable using one in class the other day."

[sorella-vecchia.livejournal.com]

"I'm extremely good with guns." Modesty wasn't something Triela did very well.

[wantstocheer.livejournal.com]

"Then I guess I know who to come to if I want some pointers," Claire said.



[wtf icon fail in the last ping]

[sorella-vecchia.livejournal.com]

"Yep!" Triela agreed with a grin. "I'm a pretty good teacher, too." At least when it came to teaching people how to shoot things.

[Heee! Icon fail is fun!]

"I will keep that in mind," Claire said. "I just joined fight club and Leto said he'd work with me on hand to hand."

[sorella-vecchia.livejournal.com]

The mention of Leto had Triela pulling a face before she caught herself. She shook her head, "Well, in the Fall we'll be starting up the gun club again, so you'd be welcome to join us there."

[wantstocheer.livejournal.com]

Claire noticed the face but decided not to comment. "I might," she said. "We'll see what happens."

[sorella-vecchia.livejournal.com]

"Even if you don't, if you ever want some pointers or anything come find me."

[wantstocheer.livejournal.com]

"Thank you," she said. "I definitely will."
