Mingle Post! Our First Class Post~ [Action]

[netherworld_lolitics]

[You've all arrived by your own will or have been hustled into a classroom by a flock of stampeding prinnies. You've been in the room for a few minutes before your first teacher shows up, fashionably late~]

[It's some kind of effeminate flower person: Senator Trap!]

... why are you all here? This is class. You don't belong here.

[Sigh] Making my life hard.

Alright, whatever. I'm Senator Trap and this class is "Zen-Not-Giving-A-Care." I'd have prepared a lesson plan, but it turns out I'm already a master at not caring. So I guess that means you're all going to have to learn from my example as I spend the next hour and a half playing Tetris. [pulls out his myPhone.]

Of course, if you actually care about learning, you're already failing this class.

(As if Dante would care about something like class. He's been out of it since forever and isn't even going to bother paying attention.

So here he is, leaning back on his chair, feet up on the desk as he reads through a magazine all about guns. Guns on the cover, guns on the back, all that good stuff.)

[good_news_everyone]

By Janus, god of doors, we've fallen into a parallel universe and here you are, reading about ordinary guns!?

Think, man, think! There could be new, fantastic weapons here we've never even imagined! And I've imagined a lot of weapons!!

[strawberryredgrave]

Yeah, I know.

(Casually turning the page.)

Nothing wrong with remembering the basics and when it comes down to it, a bullet to the head will kill most things easily.

[Broseph, you gotta sword. A sword that looks like it can hold its own despite looking so normal looking. Who CARES about guns when someone else is admiring that slab of metal in your inventory, Dante?]

Wow. Now that is a real collection item right there! It looks pretty sturdy and all, but how much bonuses does it give when you actually use it?

[strawberryredgrave]

(Bro.

Bro.

Guns are freakin' epic. Dante can rock them as easily as he can a sword; it's just a matter of what he feels like going with.)

Enough to kick some ass and look good doing it.

(Because that's what it's all about, right?)

[demondogking]

Ho HO! That sounds pretty... stylish! Man, if that's the trend going on nowadays, then I gotta up my own skillset too real quick and soon!

Hey, hey! So how do you do it? Cool poses? Start off in a string of combo attacks and finish it off with an explosion? Oh! I know, it's gotta be a one-hit kill attack on monsters and then saying something cool like... "Say good night!" and then BAM! Instant win!

C'moooon! Tell me! This is stuff main characters need to know while the tutorial stage is in play!

[strawberryredgrave]

Style's my game, but I don't mind giving you a few pointers. See, it's like this:

First thing you gotta keep in mind when you want to look cool is to have fun doing it. If it's forced, you're doing it wrong. Second, one hit kills aren't too bad, but you're not gonna be able to kill everything in one shot. What I like to do is focus on the big ones and get the stylish combos in on them and taking the little ones as they come. You know, beat up the big, smack the little bitches away and get back to it. Bonus points if you can use the minions against the big guy.

(Totally sound advice he's giving right now.)

[Sam just leans over.]

Too much recoil on that one. [And trust him, he knows.]

[strawberryredgrave]

It's got a nice grip.

(Don't worry; he knows, too.)

This one's the real eye catcher, though. Good balance, firm grip, looks sleek, too.

[highsodiumfreak]

This one's got a longer range, though it's a little heavy.

[strawberryredgrave]

Yeah, but it's still pretty good. The range makes it worthwhile.

(Considering the epic broadsword on his back, weight doesn't seem to be an issue for Dante.)

This one right here is garbage. I dunno how the hell it snuck into the magazine, but it doesn't belong with all these decent ones.

[highsodiumfreak]

Probably 'cause it looks fancy. Balance is way off, it's all too easy to lose a grip, and it's hard to hide most of the time.

[strawberryredgrave]

And when it's this bad, the first thing you want to do is hide it from everyone. You know, if you can't trash the damn thing.

(Dante takes out one of his guns, dear ol' Ebony.)

This is the kind of shit I like working with. Smooth, sexy, gets the job done and makes you look good doing it.
