[Pratt is sitting on the lower bunk of his tiny-house, part of his machine gun visible to the side and a wood plank wall behind him. He's wearing his deputy outfit again, his hair in neat braids thanks to Kettara.]
Before this whole talk of moving I was starting to set up a target range because I'm getting rusty. Figured since we have a lot of people who are experienced with firearms, arrows, knives, whatever, that I'd set it up so anyone can use it.
I've made a few spinner targets and I found a few wooden target dummies near the Colosseum but they're in rough shape so they need some clean up. I was working on a skeet shooter, but my plan to use a motor from a moped didn't work since they're electric and full of pointless plastic crap instead of useful gearbelts.
[He shakes his head, frowning at broadcasting his failure to everyone. He hadn't meant to say that.]
That's not the point.
Since we're apparently being shuffled to the next livestock pasture for us, I'm going to hold off setting it up until we're there.
What else would you guys like? Anyone need something to stand up to a crossbow? Or more intricate for throwing stars? And this shouldn't be a problem here, but I'm preemptively letting you know that there's no flamethrowers allowed at my range.
[He narrows his eyes at the screen before shutting off the feed. He definitely looks like he's adding that caveat because he's encountered that problem before.]

Huh, I was expecting the gods to drop a ton of moving boxes on us and then shuffle us off like cattle with all our worldly possessions. That's much better.

[Sharky is something else.]
You're really selling it here. So there's a chance my house could just fall off a cliff?

[He has a sister who can shoot fire out of her hands and once gifted her a derelict building for the sole purpose of blowing it up. Sometimes, Arson Good.]
And uhhh, it totally could, my guy. Chances are it'll go back to how it was before we got to these dumb islands, so as long as you're in the place you'll show up. But who knows what's comin' next, what the landscape looks like.
no subject
[Sarcasm much?]
Just don't burn down my range.
no subject
Look, they'll get all the buildings, so just be inside and you'll be fine. Don't be such a mess about it, jeez.
no subject
Maybe they'll get everything except the flamethrowers.
no subject
[Shhhh, he's still having fun with him, he won't destroy anything. Yet.]

I'll bring ice instead.
[Wink.]
no subject
I have a feeling you're going to be the first person I ban from my range.
no subject
Only if you can catch me. Besides, I am a model citizen. An absolute delight.
no subject
[Groan.]
Just don't burn it down okay?
no subject
Alright, alright. I promise I won't burn down your range.
[His identical twin sister the fire mage might, though. Hence the proper emphasis.]
You want a contract on that, buddy boy? You can end this at anytime, y'know.
no subject
How do you manage to sound less and less believable the more you talk?
no subject
Because I'm a pro. And now you're gonna be watchin' your back so when real assholes show up you'll be prepared. I'm sweet like that.
no subject
I don't need the assist.
[Making the nervous, twitchy, murderous sleeper agent even more neurotic won't be good for anyone.]

[Go away. Far far away from his range.]
no subject
[And he'll wink, and disconnect.]
