Mingling at the Bazaar

[cityship]

Next to the Mall Hotel, a large bazaar sprawled out through the streets. Food stalls, jewelery stalls, plastic surgery stalls...might want to stay away from that last one. But since the bizaar was close by, it served as a good place for the crew to meet up and start their exploration of XaXing.

[[ooc: This is just a general mingling post guys, so jump in and start threads, tag into other people's, whatever you want!]]

"Uh... yeah, you could say it's like a whip. It's got an adjustable strength, so you can wrap somethin' up or cut through it as ya need to." She thought it was a little strange for a suit to be designed for ambushes, but then there were even Gundams on her Earth that used those sort of tactics. For a real war, it made more sense. She began fitting a few parts together--there was plenty of scrap around for casings; she just needed to find an emitter.

She grinned at Duo's description. "Wow, that sounds fun! Like the kind of thing where you'd jump out of an airplane and just float down to the ground?" She'd always thought parachutes looked like a hell of a lot of fun. "I bet I could help ya put somethin' together!"

"Excuse me, but is this the sort of thing you're looking for?" said the stallkeeper, holding up a thumb-sized part and flicking a switch to show a long, purplish beam.

"Yeah!" Allenby grabbed it and turned it on and off a few times. "Here, Duo, check it out!"

\o/ I retuuuuurrrrn!

Duo nodded. "Sounds pretty useful!" At least, it made sense if it was a suit from a world where the object of fighting in mobile suits wasn't necessarily just to kill.

"Yeah, sorta. I mostly used it to escape some tight spots though," he grinned- although it was a bit strained, as he recalled the time he'd used it when he'd broken Heero out of the Alliance hospital and summarily watched the suicidal idiot plummet down a 20 foot cliff. What a waste of a perfectly good parachute that'd been.

That guy...

Stirred out of his recollection, he leaned over to glance at the device Allenby had busied herself in putting together. "Woah, hey! You managed that pretty quick, huh!"

Yay! /o/

"Then we should definitely build a new one!" Allenby said as she paid the merchant for the part. A little pricey, but hey, it looked worth it! She grinned at Duo. "I just put the casing together. This guy here's the one who gave me the actual beam emitter."

She managed to fit it in and flicked it on again. Right now it was more like a beam sword than a 'copter. "So we're gonna need a long handle and a motor to make it spin around, right? Maybe--" She turned back to ask the merchant if he had those kind of parts, but he wasn't there anymore.

"Well that's weird. Why'd he run off?" Holding the beam handle at her side, she hadn't yet noticed the tiny plume of smoke rising from it.
