[Guess who's been creeping around a little...]

I get using guns, but I noticed there's something weirder going on. Is archery a common hobby on this ship? It's kind of... old school. I wouldn't expect it. You'd think it's not that practical on a spaceship.

Oh yeah, forgot. Does anybody know where I can get a real cup of coffee?

there's a guy named ianto, apparently the best.

a pack of archers in one spot. apparently the ship's got a thing for them.

Aliens with an archery fetish. Fantastic.

[aimlessness]

could be worse.

[ becuase let's be honest things usually can. ]

if they had such a fetish you think they'd have more raw materials lying around.

[coffeeking]

Hark, someone taking my name in vain.

[aimlessness]

you come highly recommended.

audio, I am the latest

[bring_em_down]

You've got the coffee?

[suddenlycaptain]

There are people here from different points in history and different universes, which you wouldn't think would be that practical either. It's entirely possible that a lot of those picked up picked archery because it was the best option for them at the time, or just because they enjoyed it.

[bring_em_down]

[You're trying to be literal. Stop being practical!]

Wouldn't know; I just got here.

I picked it up because I liked it. Maybe there's somewhere to practice on here, if there's so many people interested.

[suddenlycaptain]

[ No! ]

Well, welcome to the Tranquility. Hopefully it'll be a quiet month.

There might be. I assume you can practice without damaging anything important? [ Like... the spaceship? ]

[it's like honey. mention archery? here comes Hawkeye]

Archery is always practical.

[except it really isn't but shhh]

[Go away, not!Hawkeye.]

Always? Where are you from?

Ultra City. Low tech was something of an advantage.

[Oh crap, the little Barton already commented. DAMAGE CONTROL DAMAGE CONTROL.]

So forget the archery and the coffee for a bit, there's something you should know.

[bring_em_down]

[...what is it with all you people and damage control?]

Let's see if I've already heard it.

Uh...

[Is there anyway to break it to him gently? No, he can't think of any.]

You know about the whole parallel universe thing. There's a kid here who's the spitting image of Steve.

But there's more. There's another kid who's calling himself Hawkeye... Claims you're his dad.

[deadandred]

I prefer guns, myself.

[bring_em_down]

Guns have a practicality when you're trying to stay undercover, but the bow's got a charm all its own.

[deadandred]

I'll take your word for it. Gimme a gun or a knife any day.

[audio]

[fuckinghysterical]

I don't really get what the fascination is with archery around here either -- eheh -- but I guess I've heard of weirder weapons around here. From the sounds of it though, at least you're in good company, I suppose. [She stalked enough of the previous replies to gather as much anyway.]

[A beat passes, before she adds:] I'm not much of a coffee drinker, but have you tried the kitchens? Eheh? [Might as well go with the obvious suggestion here.]

[audio]

[bring_em_down]

Have you seen more archers around? I'm starting to think this is going to turn into a contest.

The kitchens? I tried, and I got disappointed. That's not real coffee.

[audio]

[fuckinghysterical]

Well, I haven't seen them -- heheheh -- just heard a few others talk about it. No one I know personally, however.

But if the coffee there disappointed you, what would you say defines "real" coffee?

i wouldn't call it common, but you'd be surprised what you can do with an arrow if designed right.

more useful then the gun because it won't backfire like some will.

text;

[bring_em_down]

I know what you can do with a good arrow. You can end a revolution, or start one. Aim's everything.

Guns have their own charms.

[the_infiltrator]

Arrows are easier to make than bullets. But I like knives better. Arrows are tricky, and limited.

[bring_em_down]

Arrows are quieter than guns, too. Knives are too personal.
