Secret moonlight trysts on the rooftops. Could they be happening on YOUR home?

[Wow, this feels a bit like home. Seifer, are you possibly distantly related to his sister? Maybe?]

I repeat, I was a sniper. Glitter gets you killed. Except in night clubs. I hope.

[firacrux]

[Maybe! Through the mystery of parallel dimensions?]

Not sniping in night clubs. Glitter's great.

[So is accidentally hitting text-to-speech.]

[duel_wielding]

My twin always said that. But basically, snipers need to stay unnoticed. So I hope whoever this supposed tryst is going on between, they are careful. Use good camouflage tactics.

And protection.

Audio

[firacrux]

[There is some sort of horrible sound, distress, agony, maybe a cat fight..?

And then laughing.]

Keep a good watch on your rooftops guys! Never know what you'll catch!

[Seifer crows in the background, he's not entirely aware that audio has happened so this is just him teasing Nida loudly.]

Possibly tetanus if there are rusty nails.

I'm guessing you're brothers with this other person you're fighting. You sound close.

[That is what close siblings sound like to North.]

Audio

[firacrux]

[Uh oh, someone is talking back. Sounds like they activated the audio by mistake. That makes this even better.]

He's not letting me use his wrist device for some reason. Can't figure ou- [Grunt as he's elbowed.] why.

[duel_wielding]

[This is actually just heartwarming in its own way.]

Are you possibly named South Dakota? Because you might be my twin sister. As a guy.

[firacrux]

[Aren't they just the best? Eventually Nida surrenders. For a moment.]

Nah, definitely not named after a state. She sounds like a blast.

[duel_wielding]

You should see her with a rocket-pod. Definitely a blast. Of a given type.

[firacrux]

Now you have to explain what a rocket pod is. Also, was that a pun? Because I approve.

[duel_wielding]

So a massive gun-like thing. Sorta like a rocket launcher but more. With missiles. And yes there is pun there.

[firacrux]

That sounds AMAZING. Why doesn't that exist on my world?

[duel_wielding]

Could be you're a bit technologically behind.

[firacrux]

We have flying buildings and self-guiding missiles. Surely we could build a gun that shoots rockets.

[duel_wielding]

Interstellar travel.

[firacrux]

A good point, but I don't see that being necessary for a rocket launcher. Frankly I think we're just not trying hard enough.

[duel_wielding]

No, but the miniaturization requirements for chips and things like that is pretty much hand and hand with tech levels.

[firacrux]

We have those. Hard to get far in space when your moon spits monsters at you.

Frankly I think the rocket launcher gun is due to exist. Remember hoverboards? We can so manage a rocket gun.

[duel_wielding]

Wait. What?

Roll that back for me. Monsters?

[firacrux]

Oh. Yeah. The monsters. World's covered in 'em. Fall off the moon every... eh I'd say 80-100 years roughly. Direct hit on a city can wipe it off the map. Leave nothing but a crater behind.

Well crater and more monsters.

[duel_wielding]

What do they look like?

[firacrux]

Which ones? Come in all shapes and sizes. You imagine it, there's probably a monster for it.

[duel_wielding]

I suppose I'm trying to figure out whether these 'monsters' of yours are at all like the aliens I faced.

[firacrux]

Oh. Eh, probably not? The aliens you described sound intelligent. Monsters aren't intelligent. They're strong, mean, and hungry, bu they're not intelligent.

Alright I take that back some can be pretty clever for MONSTERS. Like Ruby Dragons will cast reflect on themselves if you start using magic on them. But not space-faring intelligent.
