I-i don't think it makes for a good look at a school, you know?" Johanna smiles at Dennis and squats down with her case, putting it and the cartridges onto the ground and she opens the case and takes out her gun. She does the same kind of inspection as before but in less detail, this time, and flips the safety switch that locks the trigger and bolt handle in place back and forth, leaving it locked once more and she then starts to load the cartridge.
"I'd just like for him to know the circumstances, you know? I don't want people to think I'm a possible school shooter on top of being a... you know... weird?"

Hearing the gunshots might bother some people, now that I think about it."
He shrugs, "Oh well."

Student, 46 posts Foreign Exchange Student Special Snowflake Sat 8 Oct 2016 at 01:48 | [Side] Under The Surface (Saturday 9-5-15 Morning)Johanna shrugs with Dennis "I guess so, but you already described yourself as a troublemaker already." She stands up and turns towards the field. She lifts up her gun and takes a shooting stance, looking down at the iron sight with her thumb hovering over the safety switch while she is looking for their prey.

She lowers her gun and looks at Dennis "Do we have a plan of sorts?"

He turns his head back and a split second later he brings his rifle up and fires, the shot's target only visible to Johanna as a vaguely red mist in the area of the impact, more than a hundred meters away.
"Ah, got one!

She turns towards the field, raising her rifle and looking down at sight as she tries to find another Prariedog. She flips off the safety switch and places her finger on the trigger.

She scoffs at herself and shakes her head. "They ain't rabbits. That's for sure." She grumbles, sounding rather miffed about her miss.

Student, 147 posts Sat 8 Oct 2016 at 05:37 | [Side] Under The Surface (Saturday 9-5-15 Morning)The pair hear a sizable thud, and a crash of pottery from the nearby greenhouse. Glancing back, you can no longer see Blake's form, although you notice a tail lash about for a moment before a clawed hand grabs it and yanks it to the floor.

Student, 51 posts Foreign Exchange Student Special Snowflake Sat 8 Oct 2016 at 05:47 | [Side] Under The Surface (Saturday 9-5-15 Morning)The thud makes Johanna jump, losing her aim on another of the critters. She lowers her gun and turns towards the greenhouse to catch the glimpse of the tail. She is first confused, but then her lips curl into a bemused smile.
"It's alright, Blake!" Johanna shouts "Everything is Okay!"

Student, 148 posts Sat 8 Oct 2016 at 05:58 | [Side] Under The Surface (Saturday 9-5-15 Morning)After a moment, Blake's head slowly peers out above the bench, then realizing what's up, his head tips down and to the side, a gesture of exasperation. Then get slowly gets up, dirt and shards of broken pots falling away, and heads to the door.
As head exits the greenhouse, he heads in the direction of the hunting pair. "What the hell? Are you two trying to give someone a heart attack?" He gestures emphatically as he speaks, tail lashing in irritation.

Johanna looks away from Blake, staring at the ground and biting her lower lip for a moment before she musters the courage to speak to the already intimidating, and now infuriated Lizard "B-blake, I'm sorry about yesterday."

Student, 149 posts Sat 8 Oct 2016 at 14:04 | [Side] Under The Surface (Saturday 9-5-15 Morning)Blake glares at the two, looking from them to the guns, and back again. "Prairie dogs." He says a little slowly, clearly not quite getting it, he turns to give Dennis the stink-eye. "A little warning would have been nice."
Johanna's next comment catches him completely off guard, as his attention turns back to her. "Wait, what?"

Student, 53 posts Foreign Exchange Student Special Snowflake Sat 8 Oct 2016 at 14:12 | [Side] Under The Surface (Saturday 9-5-15 Morning)"I-i upset you yesterday." Johanna nods to reinforce her assessment on what happened yesterday "I should have been more careful when addressing you, so I am sorry."
Johanna clicks the safety switch on and she lets out a relieved sigh now that she had gotten the apology out of her system. "Look, I am going to say what I told Tony yesterday: No matter how you look, To me, you're still a person" She runs her fingers through her hair and smiles at Blake "I mean, I don't really have the right to judge you based on your looks... B-but if I did, I'd think you look pretty cool!"

Student, 150 posts Sun 9 Oct 2016 at 04:44 | [Side] Under The Surface (Saturday 9-5-15 Morning)Blake watches Johanna as she talks, a slightly perplexed look on his face, head tipped to the side a little.
When she wraps up, Blake hold up a hand and says. "Hold up. While it might be amusing to let you spin in apologetic circles for a while, just... chill."
He rubs the back of his neck and glances at Dennis briefly before speaking to Johanna. "Look; its wasn't you I was upset with. And I'm sorry I spooked you, but I assure you, I've got my own set of issues, don't put Tony's on me." He adds with a chuckle.

She clears her breath and her cheeks flush with Dennis teasing her. "Told you already, I got kicked out of one school already. I don't want to get thrown out of here as well." Johanna sighs frustrated "Walking on Eggshells, you know?"
