Girls with Guns [Wednesday after classes]

"I know you're all familiar with them by this point, but I'm still going to talk about pistols today." She drew the one from her shoulder holster. "Pistols are small, portable, and quite deadly. They don't have the range of a rifle, or even an SMG, but it turns out that most firefights take place at ranges so short that a pistol is plenty effective. The low weight, quick handling, and ease of concealment mean that no matter what else you're carrying, you might as well carry a pistol too."

"Yep. That's pretty much it. I won't bore you with all the reasons some people prefer them as primary weapons. Suffice to say that for quite a few situations a pistol is the best choice."

Triela grinned. "So it's a good thing you're learning to use them, huh?"

"Hey, Claire," Triela waved. "How was your weekend?"

Claire shrugged. "It could have been better, could have been worse. My mom kinda spazzed about all the weird stuff but luckily Principal Winchester and Jack calmed her down."

"Your mom wasn't ready for it, I take it?"

"No," she said, shaking her head. "I thought she could handle it, but she got worried about me."

"Well, not without reason," Triela pointed out.

"Yeah, I know," Claire said. "But I am safer here than I would be anywhere else."

"That's a worrying thought," Triela grinned teasingly.

Claire stuck her tongue out. "Well, you're here to protect me, right?"

Re: Mingle and stuff

[sorella-vecchia.livejournal.com]

"Definitely," Triela nodded. Not kidding in the least.

"And then there's the whole part where the people who are after me not knowing where I am."

Re: Mingle and stuff

[sorella-vecchia.livejournal.com]

"That helps too, yeah."

Re: Mingle and stuff

[wantstocheer.livejournal.com]

Claire nodded. "It definitely does."

"Besides, we're glad you're here."
