A; Around Mayfield
[Yeah, Lithuania's not dumb, he's got nothing he can take on a mech with. But he's not going to sit around doing nothing, either, so he went and grabbed a M113 and is driving around Mayfield with it, picking up anyone who would like to get out of the way of the giant Milkman robot a bit faster than on foot. Anyone want a ride?]

B; Phone
[But first, stopping off quickly at a phone.]
I--ah, suppose you've heard about the robot. If anyone wants help getting out, I can carry--ah, at least eleven people. Probably more if I need to.

Is it...that bad? [She peers outside and bites her lip] I don't want to be any trouble.

[vytis]

I've seen it step on a few houses. I'll pick you up, alright?

[willbeurweapon.livejournal.com]

If you think you should...[She picks up her rifle and some food just in case] I um...I'll meet you outside my house?

[vytis]

Alright.

[Lithuania drives by not long after. He's in full military uniform. The vehicle is pretty obviously a military one, too. But he smiles.]

[willbeurweapon.livejournal.com]

[She's a bit startled by the whole Lithuania in a tank thing to be honest but she walks up and half-smiles] Post Office?

[vytis]

[Lithuania's smile is a touch sheepish.]

Ah, yes, I decided if I couldn't help fight I'd help evacuate.

[willbeurweapon.livejournal.com]

[She almost hands him up her rifle but decides instead to climb up as best she can one handed]

That seems smart really.

[vytis]

[Lithuania helps her in.]

Knowing where to be to help as best you can is as important as fighting directly.

[willbeurweapon.livejournal.com]

[She almost trips, but clings to his hand to keep upright for a moment]

M-More important sometimes right?

[vytis]

[Lithuania's other hand moves to steady her and pull her in.]

Getting onto a battlefield you're not prepared for can make things worse than if you hadn't been on it at all.

[willbeurweapon.livejournal.com]

[She almost flinches but takes a seat on the edge of the opening for a moment]

Was it scary over there at the dairy? I saw it in passing but I didn't go...

[vytis]

It was--chaotic. People were trying to get in, and some people were trying to stop them... [He shakes his head.]

[willbeurweapon.livejournal.com]

I hope everyone's okay.

[vytis]

I'm sure things will work out.

[Smiles; it gets easy to lie about this sort of thing after the first few hundred years, let alone a couple thousand.]

[willbeurweapon.livejournal.com]

[She doesn't look particularly placated but she doesn't reply otherwise]

[vytis]

Don't worry too much about it, Miss Koharu. Better to think about what you can do to help.

[willbeurweapon.livejournal.com]

Right. [If anything that just makes her look more miserable] I'm not sure I can...

[vytis]

Come with me and help me evacuate people?

[willbeurweapon.livejournal.com]

If you don't think I'll get in the way.

[vytis]

Of course not, I'd like some company. [Smile.]

Ah, do you know how to use that? [The rifle, that is.]

[willbeurweapon.livejournal.com]

Not really...It was my weapon--um. In Exaclan. I never used it.

[vytis]

I see. [A bit awkward.] Would you like me to teach you to use it?

[willbeurweapon.livejournal.com]

Um--if you'd like?

[vytis]

Maybe you'll feel a bit better? And it could be dangerous to have it around and not know how to use it properly...

[willbeurweapon.livejournal.com]

I didn't really think of that...[ She takes it away from her chest and sets it across her knees] Is it hard to learn?

[vytis]

It's not too hard as long as you practice. I could teach you other things, too. Do you know first aid?

[willbeurweapon.livejournal.com]

[She shakes her head and bites her lip] Not useful at all.

I-If Sora was here I'd just give her my rifle. She knows how to use it.

[vytis]

I'll teach you. [Smile.] It's your rifle, right?

[willbeurweapon.livejournal.com]

T-Technically...?

[vytis]

Then you should know how to use it.

[willbeurweapon.livejournal.com]

I just...never needed to before. Or rather...I never had the chance. Is it worth learning?

[vytis]

It seems like it would be a good idea to know how to defend yourself here, yes.

[willbeurweapon.livejournal.com]

Then I will try to learn. I can't promise I'll be very good at it.

[vytis]

It just takes time. I'm sure you'll figure it out.

[willbeurweapon.livejournal.com]

[tiny smile] You can't really know...But I think I could try. And be useful.
