[One day, while minding your own business, you heard someone distantly shout "PULL!", then a second or two later, a gunshot. This wouldn't have been too unusual or irritating by itself. No, the irritating bit was when you suddenly found yourself splattered with bits of watermelon from the sky.
You hear someone from the top of a nearby building yelling down at you.]
That was a pretty awesome shot, right?

I got one of those echo thingies, and MAN is it a cool one. Check this out!
[The camera is readjusted to show an empty hallway, though you can make out some sort of device on the ceiling. A hand from offscreen tosses a cantaloupe down the hall which causes the thing on the ceiling to smash downwards with a giant spikey plate, reducing the fruit to a pulp with horrifying violence.]
Ahahahaha is that great or what!?

Well obviously any run of the mill hero woulda lost their nerve at that point, but not me. Naw, I grabbed one of those little hairy guys I was telling you about and THREW him across the room and into the bonfire. Oh man he flipped the fuck out, it was hilarious!
[Robert is at a bar, telling his version of the latest encounter with some vermidi to a very drunk and confused audience that is, somehow, interested in what he's saying despite not being able to follow most of it. It's worth noting that Robert's also pretty buzzed at this point.]

Can you hear me now?

[Yeah, too much direct sunlight. And if she's going to try to explain to someone that even shooting watermelons had a proper time and place, well, best to not be distracted. The black machine then moves its other hand to shield her from the Sun, at which point Mizuki lets out a relieved sigh.]

[She shuts her eyes, sighing in frustration. You're not making this easy on her, Robert. But the DuskBird puts her down on the roof next to you before the machine is subsequently sucked back into her shadow. Mizuki's already wincing again from the sunlight though.]
There. Better?
