I like swords

[never_go_back]

Who: Kodachi Kuno and Doctor Insano
What: SCIENCE
Where: Insano's Laboratory, Crystalden
When: Late April

Kodachi Kuno is more than happy to bake cookies, so she's baked up a batch of chocolate chip as well, chocolate chocolate chip, as well as an experimental chocolate chocolate chocolate chip; all whicis nearly packaged in a box instead of a platter- It's easier to prance about with.

Once that was done, the lightly-armored gymnast makes her way though Crystalden then finally to Dr Insano's Lab.. Or Apartment. Or both? Either way, upon arriving she knocks on the door plain and simple.

No dramatic flair this time so Insano may appreciate that!

It's still just an apartment but he is well on the way to turning it into a lab - more science than the general comforts of a usual home.

He is fussing with something scientific when she arrives and may take a moment to get to the door, upon which he looks flustered when he opens it.

"Hello? Oh! Hello again."

[never_go_back]

"Good afternoon, Doctor!" Kodachi beams the brightest of smiles for Insano, though she's secretly disappointed that a death ray wasn't pointed at her for security reasons.

One day, Kodachi, one day.

"This is for you, it's chocolate chip, chocolate chocolate chip, and my experimental chocolate chocolate chocolate chip!" She hands the white box wrapped in black ribbon to Insano, then attempts to brush by him to look inside and around for her weapon.

[doctor_insano]

He may work on a death ray one day indeed. Give him time.

"Chocolate chocolate chocolate chip?" He peers over, intrigued by that. He quickly opens the box and seems slightly disappointed. "Cookies! But still no icecream?

Her weapon isn't immediately visible. What is on the table appears to be what used to be some kind of computer, now in an array of parts that no longer look like they belong together. There are also some random jagged rocks on one corner of the table.

[never_go_back]

"Exactly," Kodachi confirms as she looks over her shoulder, "Let us just say that I was.. A little inspired by your passion for science and created an experiment of my own. It is made with chocolate cookie dough and chocolate chips with a secret chocolate mix I've created."

"I'm afraid that there is, indeed, no ice cream.. But I should certainly have some for sure next time! What flavor was it you said you wanted?" Kodachi promises; though it's a LIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE. She looks to the table afterward and she doesn't know what she's looking at. "Hmmn."

[doctor_insano]

"Chocolate chocolate chip, of course!" He exclaims. "Although I wouldn't mind trying a chocolate chocolate chocolate chip ice cream or even a chocolatey chocolatey chip!"

He places the box down and looks to where she's looking. "One day that power source will work! But that's not what you're here for, is it?" He goes to the side of the table where there's a long box filled with crumpled up paper. He tosses some of that aside and pulls out what looks like a long black sword. It appears very sturdy.

[never_go_back]

"Is that right?" Kodachi replies with a smile as she looks over her shoulder, "Well it sounds to me like my experimenting is far from over where ice cream is concerned. Look forward to it, Doctor."

She looks back to the 'power source' and seems rather perplexed, but once she hears the sound of crinkling paper, she turns and her eyes light up, "Oh! It's black! How did you know that was my favorite color!"

"It's so lovely!" She steps closer and looks to the weapon with complete admiration, hands clasped under her chin.

[doctor_insano]

"It is? Oh, of course it is!" He didn't know her favourite colour but pretending that he did comes naturally. "It is all for you, after all. Try it out!"

Insano holds out the sword. If she flicks it around she'll see it's somewhat like what she requested; flexible and ribbonlike. It may even hold up for a while but after too much use it may just disintegrate...

[never_go_back]

Kodachi can't help but feel like a winner after listening to Insano and stands proud for a moment. Yes, it is all for her, isn't it? Just as it should be!

That said, she takes a few steps off to the side, holds the sword out in front of her, then performs a couple of ameteurish swings. She's handled a ribbon like a sword, but not the other way around- thankfully The Ninja will help her with that.

"It feels lighter than I expected.." she says, then with sharper swings, the weapon extends and twirls. She immedietly girlishly squeals afterward. "OOH!"

[doctor_insano]

He claps. "Excellent. It's holding up well. No explosions or meltdowns!" He looks proud of himself. It could even last for a good couple of weeks without incident. He may be crazy but he does know how to invent things.

[never_go_back]

As she continues to swing, she finds herself growing more accustomed to the weapon, on occassion it strikes the ground and causing sparks to fly. She twirls around, using her arms and hips to control the weapon, and eventually comes to a stop, the weapon snapping back into a single blade.

".. Explosions or meltdowns were possible side-effects? That certainly would have been troublesome if either of those happened." she murmurs in a surprisingly calm manner. "This is a wonderful weapon, however my experience in taking care of a blade like this is lacking, to say the least. How often would you suggest I return to have this maintained and explosion-free?"

[doctor_insano]

"Within the testing process there was certain incidents of both but I believe that it is all stable now!" He explains. "Hmmm. To keep everything in order you need only keep it horizontal when not in use. If you leave it upright for too long it might just go limp and never recover."

[never_go_back]

Kodachi seems a little less oblivious once Insano confirms such things actually happened and she ends up staring at her weapon for a moment in confusion. It's clear she has zero idea how either incident could happen, though after being warned she quickly holds it sideways. "O- Oh."

"Then I shall be certain to purchase a horizontally-worn scabbard." The Black Rose takes another look around, "Out of curiosity, what other things are you working on, Doctor?"

[doctor_insano]

"That's a secret! But very soon it will all be out in the open when I TAKE OVER THIS WORLD!" He cackles maniacally for a moment.

Then he looks over to her again with some surprise.

"Are you still here?"

[never_go_back]

Oh wonderful, it's once again Laugh Along with Dr Insano! But rather than laugh along, Kodachi golf claps with an encouraging smile. World Domination! Yay!

She looks just as surprised as he does when he asks about her presence.

"Oh! So I am." she replies, then withdraws her real ribbon that she twirls about her. "Until next time, Doctor, we shall meet again! Ahahahahahahah!!"

Suddenly the room is caught within a flurry of black rose petals, potentially obscuring the Doctor's vision! And when it's clear she's nowhere to be seen. Though the door is open.

What a mess!

[doctor_insano]

He grumbles about the mess she left behind but as he goes to sweep it up he's quite satisfied of a job well done.
