[The mirror at first only shows robots marching past, destroying and trampling the Gardens as they go. Really, you might think, why did the Vine even bother? It's not exactly hard to miss the drama going on- no need for this kind of public awareness announcement.

But, see, the Vine sensed something exciting about to happen.]

TIRO FINALE!

[The roar of a single cannon blast; a nigh-blinding burst of light; a massive shot of bright yellow energy shoots into view from somewhere off in the surroundings, obliterating dozens of the robots. Their pieces litter the grass. Then, a small but growing spot of darkness over the busted gears and scraps of metal; the shadow of something falling out of the sky.

Mami gracefully touches down into sight of the mirror, fully transformed and for once not smiling. Unaware that the Vine is recording her, she summons a dozen muskets from thin air with a sweep of her hand. They remain hovering there, by her side, as her cold gaze takes in the damage the robots caused.

It's a very different Mami Tomoe than most in the Gardens know.]

They just won't stop, hmm....? Then neither will I.

Mn, but it's far too real to be a dream. [Her voice sounds distant, but she presses her lips into a smile.]

I would help you, but I'd be a lot more help sharpshooting if I had my actual rifle. A handgun doesn't really help me in a situation like this. [She pauses to think for a moment.] I might as well take that chance on that magic dirt, as ridiculous as that sounds.

[A quick glance over her shoulder at her surroundings, to make sure she had the time for a lengthy conversation, before turning back to Gabrielle with a smile.]

I'd offer you one of mine, but...well, there might be a compatibility issue. [Such as how all of her guns, although she can produce an infinite number, can only fire once.] And no, miss, that doesn't sound ridiculous at all- I've heard of that stuff as well. It should be reliable, based on the stories.

You look like you know how to handle yourself pretty well with them for being so young. [She crosses her arms, tilting her head just a bit.] How long have you been using them?

Oh, I don't really know for sure- time just flies by, you know? Maybe a few years.

[Somehow, she keeps the bitterness out of her voice.]

Mn— [She smiles.] I certainly know what you mean. It's been nearly a decade for me.

Where did you learn to use them?

Back in the city where I lived. [she knows what you mean, she just doesn't want to explain it] I guess the practice really came in handy here, huh?

[Of course, Gabrielle knows the younger girl is withholding information, but she does not press on. For now, at least. A curious smile plays upon her lips.]

I would say so. Really, all I have now is my regular handgun, but if there is ever an off chance that I get my rifle... we should practice targets together.

After these robots are taken care of, though.

[She tilts her head a little, as if really thinking about the idea. It's an appealing one, sure, in it's own strange way, but Mami knows it would lead to questions. Maybe to closeness. And that's dangerous.

Still, the smile doesn't drop, and Mami even nods.]

Yes, that sounds pleasant.....more often than not, using these things is for work and not play. It would be nice to relax once- as you said -these machines are dealt with.

Speaking of, if you'll excuse me for a moment- [She turns to face another trundling swarm of robots, summoning more muskets from nowhere, and firing them all at once. The robots are blown to pieces.]
