week seven afterparty
[ so how is everyone doing today? pretty badly, I'd assume, but there's so little of them left, not to mention that Bolin is going to get executed because of an accident. on top of that, there's the confusion coming from the public.
so what's going on.
today's going to be a little different - as Sakura seeks everyone out. she knows it's tough, but given the circumstances, she wants to invite everyone to meet her in front of the police station.
yeah.
we're having a jail cell afterparty, apparently. oh, and she's brought pancakes because... you all probably need that after. All of This. of course people can always ignore her request and just go somewhere else, but where are you tonight? ]

I need to eat. But I'll drop by again once I'm done. It's not the same type, but you can use my revolver for practice.
Will that work?

[It's not like she's going to become an expert in one night, no matter how long they spend working on it.]
no subject
[Though she's not going to bet on Natalie having much of a restful night.
True to her word however, once she's had time to get food, she'll return with a soft knock on Natalie's door.]
It's me.
no subject
...Hey.

no subject
Did you need me to bring anything, or...?
no subject
[And out they go! Kino already took the courtesy of setting up the plate, hanging it from the branches again.]
I'll just be teaching you how to shoot, unless you really want to know how to wield one for self-defense. But... that's something that should be left for tomorrow, if that's the case.
no subject
[She watches as she sets up the plate, though.]
no subject
[Though she still thinks it could be useful for other reasons. Once the plate's up, she walks over to a spot she judges to be about the right distance, gesturing Natalie over.]
This isn't the exact model of gun he'll be giving you, but it should work for this.
[And, reaching for the gun on her right hip, she provides a revolver.]
This one has more of a recoil than the one you'll be using. So... actually, that one will be easier to work with than this, but it's better than not being prepared for recoil at all.
Are you ready?
no subject
...I think so, yeah.
[To learn, at least.]

The two places I would recommend shooting are the head or the heart. If he's willing, the head would be the fastest. If he's not, the heart is easier to hit - especially if you fire off three rounds. That should pretty much ensure a fatal wound.
For now, let's just try one at a time. Try to hit the plate.
no subject
[She holds the gun up before she shoots, glancing towards Kino.]
Like this?
[Not quite. Her arms are stiff as she holds it up; she's gripping it so tightly that her knuckles are going white.]
no subject
[Kino walks over to Natalie now, taking in her stance.]
You need to loosen your arms and your grip. You're too nervous.
no subject
You got any tips for not being nervous?
no subject
[Hmm... Let's see.]
Take deep breaths. Holding your breath when you shoot will also keep it steadier.

Now focus on the sight with your dominant eye. The top of the sight should run horizontally right through the middle of the spot you're aiming for.
no subject
Like this?

Now try firing. It'll be loud.
no subject
...Are they all this loud?
