Would anyone around here know here I could get a bow and some arrows?

It wouldn't hurt for me to make sure my aim stays sharp. Besides that it's something to do.

Thanks.

...What are those?

It's a human weapon. Meant to be used for long range attacks. The bow launches the arrows through the air towards a target.

I like to use it for exercise.

Oh...can I watch sometime?

[sky_protector]

I can let you know once I have one to use.

[notjustsomepet]

Okay, thanks!

No problem. I don't mind having an audience at all.

[stayb100ponyboy]

You're an archer?

/dies laughing

[sky_protector]

I am. That's why I'm asking for a bow.

[stayb100ponyboy]

I know where you can find them. Although, depending on your STRENGTH and ability level, they might not do you any good.

[sky_protector]

Neither of those are a problem.

[stayb100ponyboy]

You can shoot them without them breaking?

[Equius sounds slightly wistful.]

[sky_protector]

It's a matter of working with the bow rather than making it work for you.

[stayb100ponyboy]

I know that!

[Forgive him for sounding a little disgruntled.]

But... it doesn't matter how STRONG you are, if you work with the bow?

[sky_protector]

Is there a reason for the emphasis on the word strong?

[stayb100ponyboy]

[Equius switches to video so whoever he's talking to can see him. It's... kind of difficult to hide his muscles, especially since he wears a tanktop everywhere.]

Yes.

[sky_protector]

That's it?

[He's used to muscles. He's friends with Shuu.]

[stayb100ponyboy]

[Have a snort and a head toss for that, human.]

I have problems with control. The bows keep breaking.

[sky_protector]

That's a problem.

[stayb100ponyboy]

Yes, it is.

[sky_protector]

The first step is to learn to control the power you have then.

[stayb100ponyboy]

What do you think I've spent my whole life trying to do?

[sky_protector]

Your whole life and no improvement?

I guess you get points for continuing to try.

[stayb100ponyboy]

Some improvement. But not enough.

[sky_protector]

That's pretty clear if you're still breaking bows.

[stayb100ponyboy]

Tell me about it.

[sky_protector]

I wonder if this place has a stronger material for you to construct a bow that won't break on you. It should be possible, anyway.

[stayb100ponyboy]

I've been working on that. It's harder than you'd think to find a material with both the STRENGTH and the flexibility to make it work.
