Not much for aiming and firing, but it's got a magazine instead of a cylinder, so you can just slap a fresh mag into it to reload, and you can do it one-handed if someone wrecks your hand or you can't let go of something or someone.

[ She will never let Joel live that one day down. She shakes her head thinking on it, and she takes the gun back from him to go through the process of unloading the pistol to pull out the magazine, a little plastic casing with a spring in it. She pushes on it to show him. ]

See this spring? Every time you fire, it loads a new bullet in, so you don't have to cock the hammer again after the first one.

Huh. [Now that does interest him. He leans against the deck and takes a look at it from up close.]

Think the Enclosure's safe for a little target practice? You could do with a little practice on my antique.

[dog_eat_dog]

[ She hands it back to him so he can poke around ]

Maybe with guns from the Enclosure to save on ammo, but yeah. Been at least a couple years. You wanna go now?

[stand_unshaken]

Yeah. We don't know what the hell's coming for us, but I want to be prepared. Everyone's on edge.

[dog_eat_dog]

That the talk you're hearing on the warden end?

[stand_unshaken]

Yeah. [He rubs his hand through his beard.] People with powers lost 'em or gained 'em, depending on what side they're on.

Inmates seem pretty happy on our filters. I give it a day or two before someone does something serious.

[ Who could blame 'em, though? ]

[stand_unshaken]

Misty thinks somethin' might be coming. She's a smart one.

[dog_eat_dog]

[ A shrug. ]

She's alright, but she doesn't know any more than the rest of us. And nothing seems to be happening with the Barge itself, just the people.

Let's see how long it takes for Bill to fuck it all up.

[dog_eat_dog]

Bill Cipher, Billy Butcher or William?

[stand_unshaken]

...huh. I meant Cipher.

[dog_eat_dog]

I can't pretend to wrap my head around half the shit he's capable of, but so far he's been less of an annoyance than Beetlejuice, at least.

[stand_unshaken]

Ain't that the truth.

Alright, let's go before someone else gets this idea.

[dog_eat_dog]

At least no one can argue with us if they have.

[ A grin. ]
