[The feed turns on an all you wonderful residents are greeted by a very large Russian man.]

Hello. For those of you who do not know me, I am Heavy Weapons Guy. No, that is not real name and no I will not tell you it. Is classified.

[A shrug from the giant man.]

Anyway, name is not important. What is important is that city has become more and more dangerous as time passes. Is not good. From posts on tiny starfish, already at least one person has died.

Therefore, I would like to propose idea. I have knowledge of gun use as well as boxing skills, so I could help with some sort of self defense and gun use. That way, at least no one would be helpless against attacks against city and attacks from other residents. Shooting range and boxing ring is inside base, so I will give directions at end of message.

Also. RED Base, base I mentioned before, is now fully operational. I will discuss it with comrades, but I heard someone propose safe houses. RED Base should be able to act as one should everything go smoothly.

That is all. If you would like to get some help, just follow directions.

[And after the directions have been posted via text, the message ends.]

[Oooh, guns! Hideyoshi approves very much. He rubs his hands together in eager expectation.]

Sign me up! Not that I'm a bad shot, if I do say so myself, but you can't get too much practice! [And, he suspects, get a look at some models of guns rather more advanced and exciting than the matchlocks he's used to.]

They won't be woo heavy, will they?

Very well. Will right your name down...?

[shrug.]

Depends on definition of "heavy".

Hashiba Hideyoshi, at your service! [He switches to text briefly to type it out, then back to video to show his problem with the 'heavy' label. Namely that he's a short and scrawny and generally about a fifth of Heavy's size.]

Not too heavy for a little guy like me, that is.

[~~yoshi? Like the dinosaur?~~]

Is nice to meet you.

[Looks him up and down, thinking.]

Might have something for person like you. Stop by when you have chance and we will see.

That sounds promising. Much obliged!

[He nods, then hesitates, then figures he ought to be fair.]

I should tell you straight, though, I don't think I can pay you. If you're looking for pay.

[Money? Here? Have a loud bellowing laugh.]

Oh...oh dat is funny to me. Is no need for money! Will do for free.

Well. That's awfully nice of you. [He's just a bit unsure for a moment, but gift horse, mouth, all that, right?]

I guess I'll just have to owe you a favor!

Is not necessary. Am bored, will keep me busy and interested.

Oh good. We wouldn't want for you to get bored. [Who knows how a guy that size would entertain himself...]

[Oh, the usual: play poker, eat, go on a murder rampage...~~wait~~.]

Da, boredom is no fun. So, when can I expect you over?

Whenever - now, if you like!

[OOC: Is there a log for this maybe? ^^]

Now is good, if you wish.

[We can go to action, if you still wanna do it.]

[It takes a bit of time and running around and asking for Hideyoshi to figure out where that Red Base place is, but eventually he gets pointed in the right direction and heads there. He stops on the way to pick up an offering, one of those sandwich meals that's effectively a whole chicken stuffed into a whole loaf of bread. Heavy might say that he doesn't need to be paid, but Hideyoshi likes to grease his social situations, so to speak, and it's the biggest food he can find that can be eaten on the go or at work.

Finally he is there, taking a good look at the place before coming up to the door. So he might be a bit nervous - can anyone really blame him?]

Helloooo? Here to see a big guy about little guns?

[A camera will turn around and look at your position, Hideyoshi. However, from the speaker a familiar Russian sounding voice will be heard.]

Da, give me few minutes.

[And sure enough in a few minutes outs comes the Heavy with two shotguns, and a backpack full of equipment.]

Are Hideyoshi, right?

[Wait what. He is not good with technology. Hideyoshi jumps a little when the camera talks at him, then recovers and gives it a little wave and smile. He gives the same hopeful smile to the Heavy when he comes out, and a very interested look at the guns.]

That's right! Pleasure to meet you, thanks for taking the time!

[He returns the smile.]

As I said, is no problem.

[Out of the corner of his eye, he notices that sandwich, though.]

Bring a lunch?

[Yowza, the guy is big, it's a bit eerie to have him smiling at him like this. But then books, covers, judging, all that. Hideyoshi happily presents the sandwich.]

I thought we'd both need one at some point. Hope you like chicken!
