WE'RE STILL HERE AND THAT'S WHAT MATTERS FOR GRUMP'S SAKE

[Well today was quite the unusual way. Filbo pretty much went into his room and collapsed on his bed and just fainted because hey, everything that happened? It's overwhelming. Bluuuuuuuh.

A few hours later, once he recovered somewhat, Filbo just goes and gets paper. This is a ridiculous situation, but...hey, no matter what, stuff needs to be done]

I know today was a really weird day, but let's try to gather and see what happens. There will be ice cream at the ice cream parlor in half an hour. With everything that happened we really should try to at least not forget we need to stick together for whatever reason.

[Geez.

Well, he goes and does exactly what he said: this time it isn't booze, it's all kinds of ice cream available for anyone who comes. The tables all have spoons and water because really, this is going to be a whole lot of sugar for everyone. Better this than alcohol, especially since things clearly have gone off the rails one way or another, so may as well gorge yourself with ice cream and try to gather your wits for whatever the next week can bring]

Let's see how that works, then!

[He reaches inside his suit jacket and just... pulls out two knives?? You absolutely can catch a glimpse of more hidden in there as well??]

Knives aren't really my specialty, but I know the basics and can help if you need some pointers.

[....Empyreans, Yeager, that's a lot of knives.]

Er, sure.

[So he'll take one of those knives in his hands to get a feel for it. I don't know what I'm doing here but Zaveid definitely does.]

[scythegun]

[He's an arms dealer, what do you expect????]

They aren't nearly as lightweight or precise as a proper throwing knife would be. But knives are straightforward and easy enough to use; should you need to defend yourself up close, you'll be fine. As for target practice... We can handle that at some point; I've still got some of those abominations Freyja made!

[............the sad thing is he legitimately is trying to be helpful.]

[sivard]

The weight on these is pretty unsteady for throwing. I'm not saying I couldn't do it, but it might be harder to accurately throw in a specific direction.

[scythegun]

It would be difficult to hit anything with perfect accuracy... But we don't really need perfect accuracy. As long as you can hit somewhere in a general person-sized vicinity, it'll prove useful.

[sivard]

I'm not sure what it would really do besides slow down the thing possessing Jack's body. But it's at least something.

[scythegun]

It likely won't kill the thing, no. But the point isn't to kill it - the point is to defend ourselves if need be. We need to be prepared for the worst case scenario; so I want to make sure as many of us that can fight are ready for it.

[In case they need to stall for time or distract the thing, or even just protect those who can't.]
