[ If you're walking around the West Wing, you might hear some new footsteps; at least, if you're adept at that kind of thing. If not, it might be that ricocheting bullet bouncing off the walls and ceiling; narrowly missing your head.

Oh yes, we've got a skilled marksmen in the Campus now, and he goes by the name Revolver Ocelot. He waltzes into view, a smile upon his lips as he twirls the Colt Single Action Army around in his hand, doing all kinds of fancy tricks with it...

Finally, he replaces it back in its holster and spreads his arms. ]


Well now, I've never seen you before.

Hope you didn't shoot the nurse. She may be a part of this place but we sort of need her. Besides, didn't you say you were fighting snakes? Where's this man come in?

[The Campus was plenty confusing enough that Sibyll did not need to stretch herself playing up her bewilderment.]

Sibyll infuses her tone with all the grace, innocence and sweetness of an angel.]

You don't seem to be much different. I mean, you nearly shot me in the head without a second thought.
wildcard_of_the_desert: (wide eyed and curious)

[Uh-oh.]

I'm a fair shot with it. But I don't think the fight would last long. I saw how you bounced that bullet and nearly took my head off. I can't imagine that'd be your only trick.
wildcard_of_the_desert: (hmmm)

[Sibyll is quite talented at acting demure when the situation calls for it. And clearly this one does. Once she was more familiar with this Ocelot person, perhaps she'd let him see her skills. In the meantime, even if it was a bit humiliating, she would adopt the persona of someone who was only had basic knowledge about guns.]

Sorry to disappoint. In my world, you use a gun to protect yourself against all those mutated critters that have since spawned after the Great War. So far I've yet to see an over-sized gecko bounce a bullet.

I didn't say that. [She winces internally as her words come out just a little too sharp. But dammit, this was a nice gun!] Just that it's now being used more for protection. And in my world that means it's still getting used frequently.

But let's see if I can guess... [Slowly, she saunters over to Ocelot, glancing him up and down.] You're dressed... actually you look like a cowboy. But not quite. I'd almost guess you were from my time, but your clothes are too new and you don't know about the Great War.

[She backs away with a shrug.]

200 years ago in my time, someone decided it would be a great idea to launch all their nukes and the world ended. That's the Great War. Lasted less then a day.

[The Courier shrugs.]

Nope. Anyone who might have is probably long dead. Hell, the Enclave, the Pre-War US Government, doesn't even really exist anymore. Sometimes I'll find old stuff about the war, newspaper articles and the like, so maybe it was the Chinese? But I don't really know. All that matters to me is that Vegas was spared. It's an absolute paradise compared to somewhere like DC.

[She can't help herself. Sibyll begins to laugh.]

You've never been to Vegas, have you? Just heard the stories? Still, you remind me of someone. You two would get along quite well, too, 'cept he wants to remake Vegas into something... better.

Then I don't know if you could even call Vegas honestly 'dishonest'. Too much of a mix to make assumptions. But maybe you figured that out when you played your game with your 'friend'. You don't seem like the sort to play Russian Roulette and take the chance that he might lose.

[She's still smiling, but there's an edge to it when the gun starts spinning again. She is clearly not a fan of his tricks.]

Nice tricks, but I think I'm suitably impressed for now. Why don't you put that away for later? Leave me wanting more and all.

[There is absolutely no mirth in her smile now, though it never leaves her face. She's still very wary of the gun. She'd try to bat it out of his hands. The way he's so casually handling the firearm might look like he's an amateur. But he's not, and she's not about to risk a gun being pointed at her face or worse.]

Wouldn't know, since my world is already populated by such individuals.

[Okay, gun or not, she still can't resist mimicking his words and punctuating them with a hint of mockery.]

You don't sound like you're from the my part of the States. Why the outfit? I can't imagine there's anything a brahm- a cow can do that would warrant a gun that nice.
wildcard_of_the_desert: (Almost a genuine smile)

[She visibly relaxes as the gun vanishes.]

Working holovids are rather hard to come by nowadays, even in Vegas, let alone a working TV.

[Then it dawns on her, with a little smile and a laugh of surprised amusment. You just needed to pick a medium she's more familiar with, Ocelot.]

Wait, you're dressed like that because you want to be like all those ancient cow wranglers I read about in books?
