Stupid Bad guys questions, that are as thought provoking as they are idiotic:

1 - Who’s the most likely to vandalize the minecraft bases of the others?

2 - Who’d be the best at Dance Dance Revolution?

3 - Who’s the most likely to accidentally start a new religion?

4 - In the case of a zombie apocalypse, who’s getting thrown to the zombies as a sacrifice?

5 - In a fight, who’d be the most easily distracted with the use of online slime scooping videos?

1. They all will. Killer does it because he’s a bitch and he thought it was funny—he comes with increasingly creative ways and even manages to mimic specific types of vandalism to pin it on Horror or Dust, thus causing arguments between the two.

Horror hates them both, but was minding his own damn business until Dust (Killer) bothered him first. He blew up Dust’s place and left a sign insulting his non existent mother.

Dust probably blew a place up accidentally and then started doing it on purpose because he likes the sound of TNT exploding. He specifically only really targets Killer but Killer never bothers to fix any vandalism, instead finds a way to memorialize all the damage.

After Horror blew up Dust’s place, Killer blew up Horror’s and somehow managed to frame it as Dust getting revenge. Horror now refuses to make another house or base and instead roams around, mining and making armor and weapons.

Killer suspects he is planning a little ambush on Dust and watches Horror skitter around the game world like a bug with increasing amusement. Dust has no idea what is going on because he is planting a garden now.

2. Probably Killer. Dust would prefer to sleep and Horror claims to have better things to do. If Horror does attempt to try a round, if only to try and push Killer down a peg, he wins just by doing the bare minimum because I think that’s funny. It doesn’t help that any time Dust sits and watches the two of them play, he always attempts to trip Killer up.

3. If we’re talking accidentally, then probably Horror. If only because he knew the exact words to say to a group of desperate, starving people to convince them to resort to eating humans.

Killer would start a religion on purpose if it serves his or Nightmare’s goals. He probably already has in a way, whispering in in-code AUs’ ears about myths and legends of the dreadful, evil, powerful God of Negativity. Wielding both fear and reverence.

And given his cryptic occasional comments about Players and no one really having free will, I’m sure if certain conditions were met, a new religion based around Players could even crop up. That one would probably be accidentally for Killer.

4. Killer is the first to ask a similar question in a zombie apocalypse. Horror and Dust answer by throwing him out to the herd.

5. Probably none of them. Dust would probably be too lazy and tired to fight anyway, not interested in anything outside his own timeline, so he’d probably just take the device the video is playing and put on whatever he wants to watch.

Horror might get momentarily distracted, if only because of the absurdity or because the light/noise coming from the screen caught him off guard.

I doubt much of anything can stop Killer from trying to fight or kill you if he’s decided he’s going to fight or kill you, especially if that’s amongst what he’s been ordered to do. Maybe if he already finds the fight to be unbelievably boring, he’d probably get distracted.

But in that case he’d probably just pull out his Gaster Blaser and end the fight quickly rather than waste his time, then he’ll pick up the device and watch some slime scooping videos while standing over someone’s corpse.

• Tu romps avec lui •

Part 1 Haitani Brothers

Mention : Pleure - Angoisse - Crise - Separation

Personnage : Rindou - Ran

---------------------------------------------------

Rindou :

Faisant des tours entier dans le salon te mordant les doigts tu était entrain de réfléchir à ta relation actuelle avec Rindou. Ta famille a réussi à faire quelques recherche sur lui.

Ta famille te mes une énorme pression sur les épaules afin de le larguer et de repartir vers eux. Tu n'avais pas le choix, pour toi la famille reste la famille.

La porte d'entrée s'ouvra laissant apparaitre ton copain et son frère derrière lui, les 2 te remarque stresser.

Rindou ne perd pas de temps pour s'approcher de toi, Ran lui monte dans sa chambre avec le même regard blaser que d'habitude.

"Bébé ça va pas ?" dit-il touchant ta joue.

Tu t'éloigne de lui retirant son contact sur ta peau. Il te regarde avec de l'incompréhension dans les yeux. Tu devais lui dire alors tu ouvre la bouche une bonne fois pour toute.

"Je veux qu'on rompe." Dis-tu commençant à prendre ton sac de cours pour allée vers la porte d'entrée.

Il ce lève du canapé pour te prendre sauvagement le bras pour te tirer vers lui. Contre sa poitrine tu senti des gouttes tomber sur le haut de ta tête comprenant qu'il pleurais.

"Je ne veux pas... de ça" dit-il entre ses pleures.

Tu essaye de le repousser afin que la rupture ne sois pas plus difficile qu'elle ne les déjà.

"Rindou je... Ne peux pas, s'il te plait.." dis-tu tapant sur sa poitrine les larmes au yeux.

Il prend soudainement ton visage entre ses mains pour t'embrasser de force, tu fond entre ses lèvres humide suite au larmes glissant dessus. Tu recula jusqu'à toucher la porte derrière toi.

Ses baisées mouiller descendent jusqu'à ton cou le mordant furieusement te surprenant, tu ferma les yeux de douleurs.

"Aie ! Rindou tu fais mal.. Stop" dis-tu dans la douleur.

C'est la première fois qu'il ce comportait de cette manière envers toi, d'une manière agressive... Des larmes de peur viennent ce réfugié dans le creux de t'es yeux.

Tu arriva à le repousser en arrière, tu t'écroula contre la porte mettant t'es bras en croix devant ton visage par réflexe faisant réalisé à Rindou ce qu'il venais de te faire.

"Bé-Bébe... Je.. je suis désolé..! Pardonne moi je t'en pris.." dit-il s'accroupissant devant toi.

Tu le savais qu'il avais réagis excessivement à cause de ta décision. Tu te relève prenant ton sac le laissant là au sol.

"Ma famille sais maintenant qui tu es... Il me mettent la pression pour te larguer et revenir... Je-... Je ne peux pas me permettre de me mettre ma famille à dos Rin, je suis désolé." dis-tu les larmes glissant sur t'es joues.

"S'il te plait.. Me fais pas ça Y/N..." dit-il attrapant ton poignet avec une fine pression a peine

Tu te retourne prenant délicatement son visage entre t'es doigts embrassant son front tendrement une dernière fois avant de retourner auprès de ta famille.

"Je t'aimerais toujours, sache le" dis-tu avant de partir.

Après avoir fermé la porte tu pouvais entendre les sanglots déchirant de Rindou, tu voulais vraiment revenir vers lui et le serrer dans t'es bras. Mais tu ne pouvais pas... Tu souhaitais le protéger de ta famille, et c'est ce que tu compte faire.

Parce que tu l'aime.

Ran :

Dans la rue marchant avec 2 sac en plastique remplis de course la nuit déjà tomber, tu respiras l'air frais de la soirée.

Lorsque que un groupe d'homme avec des vestes similaire entres-elles. Tu compris malheureusement très vite qu'ils faisaient partie d'un gang.

Sans chercher plus loin tu essaya de contourné le groupe, cela étant dit, eux ne voulais pas te laisser tranquille t'appelant, te sifflant essayant d'avoir ton attention.

Ton cœur bat super fort tu hésita pas à prendre ton téléphone pendant qu'il était encore temps pour appeler ton petit ami.

"Ran... S'il te plait aide moi..." dis-tu la voix tremblante avec les appels des garçons derrière toi, tout ceci avais suffit à Ran prenant ta position pour débarqué.

"Coupe pas l'appel" dit-il avec une voix inquiète afin d'entendre tout en qu'a de problème le temps qu'il arrive.

Les hommes s'approchaient de toi a grande vitesse l'un d'eux prend la parole ce plaçant devant toi prenant ton menton entre ses doigts sale.

"Tien, je crois qu'on a trouver ça meuf" dit l'homme avec une heleine puant la clope.

"Ouais, elle est sacrément bonne !" Lance un autre homme ce plaçant derrière moi, sentant sa main remontant sur ta fesse. Des larmes ce loge dans tes yeux, ta gorge nouée tu n'arrivais à rien dire, ni réagir.

Cette sensation était la pire sur terre.. Des attouchement ce font plus insistantes sur ton corps paralysé de peur. Tu prias en boucle dans ta tête pour que Ran arrive le plus vite possible.

"Alors par ou commen- ARGH !" Cria l'homme finissant au sol sanglant.

Tu regarda vers la perosnne qui venais d'infliger la blessure, c'est lui...Ran !

Ses yeux emplis de haine ses points sanglant après le choc, les autres hommes finissent à terre à leurs tour. Tu vis Ran frappant l'homme qui t'avais toucher sans retenu comme un fou, son expression montrait clairement qu'il souhaitait sa mort.

Tu cours vers lui arrêtant ce qu'il faisais, il tourne légèrement la tête vers toi, te voyant en larmes et tremblante encore sous le choc

Vous éloignant de la scène sanglante il te prend soudainement dans ses bras te rassurant, s'excusant pour tout ça.

"Je suis tellement désolé princesse." dit-il caressant ta tête jouant avec quelques mèches au passage.

Tu ne savais plus quoi pensé... Ce n'était pas la première fois que cela arrivais ce genre de situation et cette fois ci c'était de trop. Tu ne pouvais même plus sortir sans te faire accoster par des personne d'autres gang ou insulter par ses fan-girl.

"Ran, j'en peux plus..." dis-tu coller à ça poitrine.

Il ce recula te regardant enlevant t'es larmes avec son pouce.

"Comment ça Y/N ? Que veux tu dire ?" dit-il inquiet par t'es mots.

Tu prends une grande inspiration avant de prendre la parole, cette décision allais vous détruire tout les deux et tu le savais. Mais tu avais pas envie de vivre dangereusement, tu ne voulais pas non plus qu'il ce mette en danger pour toi. Pour toi cette décision était la meilleure pour vous deux.

"Séparons-nous" dis-tu.

Ran reste la assimilant t'es mots, ses yeux transperçant les tiens. Ses mains redescendent vers t'es épaules les serrant fermement.

"Quoi ? Qu'est ce que... Tu raconte quoi là ?" dit-il ne comprenant pas ta décision.

"Je ne veux pas de ça...Non.." dit-il souriant bêtement

"Je suis désolé.. Mais" dis-tu avant que Ran t'enlace subitement.

Sa pression ce ressert autour de toi t'empêchant presque de respiré.

"NON ! Non... Ne m'abandonne pas !" dit-il sa tête dans ton cou.

Sa voix tremblai tout comme tout son corps. Une réaction comme ça venant de Ran était vraiment inattendu.

"Ran, je suis harceler en permanence, je ne peux plus." dis-tu retenant t'es larmes.

Tu l'éloigne de toi, tu le regarde une dernière fois en souriant avec les yeux rouges et joues humide. Les yeux de ton ex s'écarquille voyant ton visage complètement bousiller par les larmes.

"Je t'aime, vraiment... Mais je peux plus supporter ça." dis-tu avant de l'embrasser une dernière fois te mettant sur la pointe des pieds atteignant ses lèvres.

Ses mains encerclant ta taille une dernière fois sentant ton corps contre le sien.

"Je t'aime tellement... Tellement si tu savais." Répond-il posant son front contre le tien.

Tu lui souris avant de prendre ton chemin vers chez toi reprenant t'es courses qui se trouvais au sol. Ran monta sur sa moto avant de partir a toute vitesse les mains serrer contre les poignets.

Vous deux êtes fait l'un pour l'autres mais par moment la meilleure décisions est d'en finir pour le bien de l'autres. C'est ça l'amour.

На охоте в лесу россиянин взял с собой карабин для отпугивания медведей и выстрелил в зятя

Под Екатеринбургом 60-летний мужчина поехал в лес на охоту с 35-летним зятем и выстрелил в него из карабина. Об этом сообщает Shot в своем Telegram-канале.

По данным канала, мужчины поехали в лес на квадроцикле поохотиться. Они остановились в охотничьем домике, где подготовили кормушки для подкорма птиц и диких животных и затем расставили их глубоко в лесу. На следующий день они поехали проверять эти кормушки. 60-летний мужчина взял с собой карабин Blaser R8 для того, чтобы отго��ять медведей. К кормушкам они приехали, когда уже стемнело. По дороге 35-летний мужчина выронил фонарик и остановил квадроцикл. Он отошел примерно на восемь метров от транспортного средства и попросил тестя посветить ему. Тогда мужчина тоже слез с квадроцикла и нажал на курок. Зять получил ранение в спину, в область правой лопатки. Он не выжил.

60-летнего мужчину задержали. На допросе он рассказал, что на курок нажал случайно. В отношении него возбуждено уголовное дело по статье о причинении смерти по неосторожности. Ему грозит до двух лет лишения свободы. Сейчас он находится под подпиской о невыезде.

Ранее сообщалось, что в Башкирии мужчина во время охоты на лося выстрелил в отца.

Taglist: @ranger-treaty

The group of us had no issues getting down to the lava flats. The problems only started when we arrive to find the droid ferry designated from going un-used in the hot conditions. I watch from the side as Kagra and Din struggle to push the boat off, the cooled molten lava attaching the boat to the dock. “Cara, would you mind?” I sigh out hoisting the child further up in my arms. “Mind getting out of the way!” She calls to the men, said men turn and go wide eyed and scramble to get out of the way as she lifts her heavy-duty blaster gun. I shield the child’s eyes from dust as she open fires on the side of the boat, small rubble and dust flying off before it finally breaks about from the dock.

“Watch your feet, it’s molten lava.” The droid warns as I step into the boat, “You don’t say,” I muse with an eye roll. I step into the boat and Din’s hand automatically comes out to help me in. When we’re all in by the time the boat catches the steady flow of the river, but it's a few seconds in when there is a russell behind us. Everyone including myself pulls a blaster and points. Only to see the supposed broken ferry droid rise up from, it beeps a few times and I glance over to Din. “Any idea what he just said?” I question, “Why are you asking me?” He grunts, “You're the bilingual one.” I scoff.

“I believe he is asking us where we would like to go.” IG takes a guess, “Down river. To the Lava flats.” Kagra requests. The droid deeps again before using his long pole to row the boat, I let out a sigh and run a hand over my face. The child in my arm pats my cheek in an attempt to to copy me, I send the child a small smile and brush my fingers over his wrinkly head. “Not to worry, my littlest beast, we'll be out of here in no time.” I whisper softly.

A little while later I spot rodents along the riverbed, a sign that there should be an exit coming up soon. I’m proved correct when a light came into view at the end of the tunnel. “That’s it. We’re free.” Kagra calls pointing out the blinding light up ahead, I look over to Din, waiting for the confirmation that we’re in the clear. “No, we’re not.” He counters, I with hold a groan, “Stormtroopers. They’re flanking the mouth of the tunnel.” He continues to inform. My eyes go wide and the familiar sense of panic starts to rise in my chest. “Looks like an entire platoon. They must know we’re coming.” Mando guesses, “Stop the boat.” Cara calls. I glance back to see panic forming on her face, “Hey droid stop the boat!” She calls again. Uh oh this isn’t going to end well.

When the droid doesn’t stop Cara turns sharply, “Hey! I’m talking to you!” She growls marching over. “I said stop!” she snaps before using a blaser to shoot off it’s head, I let out an exasperated sigh and sooth the child in my arms when he squeaks at the loud blast. “Well, now we really can’t stop.” I mutter, “Looks like we fight.” Cara suggests, “They’re too many.” Din chides. “Then what do you suggest we do? Cause I can’t surrender.” Cara scoffs, “They will not be satisfied with anything less than the child.” Ig buts in. “The child will be safe.” I mumble, “How so?” he questions. I take a deep breath and close my eyes, I feel the tingle of the shimmer take over and soon enough I hear the gasps of surprises as I disappear.

“You can do it now?” Din questions, “Yeah. I can focus better with the kid in my arms.” I call out. “Where did she go?” Kagra questions reaching forward and swiping at me, “Watch your hands! I’m still here!” I huff turning my body, so he didn’t accidentally hit the child. Kagra jumps at the sound of my voice, “Okay, so what about the rest of us?” Cara questions, “Can you do that for the rest of us?” She continues. “It takes a lot of focus to pull off masking an entire group and I don’t have that type of training.” I inform. “This is unacceptable. I will eliminate the enemy so you all can escape.” IG decides, “You don’t have that kind of firepower pal. You wouldn’t make it to sunrise.” Din huffs. “That is not my objective.” The droid responds, “We’re getting close. (y/n) stay down, everyone else sattle up.” Cara butts in. I shuffle and lower myself to the bottom of the boat.

“I still have the security protocols from my manufacturer. If my designs have been compromised, I must self-destruct.” IG informs, my eyes widen as I recall the time we first met, “But you don’t have to, just like last time we’ll find a way out.” I call, “I am not permitted to be captured. I must be destroyed.” he argues. “Are we going to keep talking or are going to get out of here?” Karga snaps, “I can no longer carry this for you.” IG spoke, handing the jetpack to Din. “You can’t self-destruct, your base command is to watch over the child. That supersedes your manufacturer protocol right?” Din argues, “Right?” He challenges when he doesn't get an answer. “This is correct.” The droid agrees, “Good, now grab a blaster and help us shoot our way out.” Din nods.

“Victory through combat is impossible. We will be captured, the child will be lost. Sadly, there is no scenario where the child is saved, in which I survive. You and your wife have said many times that should one of you should fail the other cannot. Surely you understand the nature of our circumstances.” The droid continues to persuade. I pause at his logic, using our own words against us, our own creed. Din continues to argue, but I let my shimmer fade as I rise to my feet. “If you do so I can default to my secondary command.” The droid instructs, “But then you’ll be destroyed.” Din spoke weakly. I slide my free hand into his, I see his helmet tilt over to me before doing a quick double take to make sure I’m actually there.

“But you will live and I will have served my purpose.” IG comforts, “No. We need you.” Din all but begs. I feel my chest sink a little but I look up at the droid knowing this is will, whether he scientifically has one or not. “There is nothing to be sad about, I was never alive.” the droid informs. “Your wrong, you are alive, Kuiil gave you new life, gave you will. He is your father and you are his son. This is the way.” I smile softly. “I’m not sad.” Din challenges, “Yes you are, I’m a nurse droid. I’ve analyzed your voice.” IG corrects. A smile breaks across my face, “Told off by a nurse droid, you’ve reached a new low.” I laugh weakly as the droid reaches forward and strokes a finger against the child’s ear. “IG,” I call, “May the gods welcome you home.” I breathe out. Nothing more is said as the robot steps over the boat and into the lava.

I let shimmer take over my body again, this time it's a bit more of a struggle as I watch IG walk to the mouth of the tunnel where he will meet the gods. Ever so slowly he slides deeper into the lava, the lava eating away the metal making up his legs. However, he makes it to the mouth. I hold my breath as he pauses, only for a tear to drop from my eyes as I watch IG unit explode. “May the gods welcome you home.” I whisper.

I glance to what remains around us when the boat finally floats through the mouth of the tunnel. Stormtroopers lay everywhere as small fires litter every other place, however my sight is pulled away from them by soring air. I duck down when I see a ship fly overhead, shots being fired down, “Moff Gideon!” Cara calls as she shoots at the ship. Mando and Kagra fire along with her until the ship disappears over the closest mountain range. “He missed.” Kagra breathes, “He won’t next time.” I mumble softly releasing the mask over my body. “Our blasters are useless against him,” Cara huffs, “Let’s make the baby use the magic hand thing.” Kagra suggest.

I quirk my eyebrow at the older man, “Really? Magic hand thing?” I scoff with a head tilt. “Come on baby, do the magic hand thing.” Karga prompts the child as he waves his hand out, I let out a snort as the child raises his hand and waves back. “I’m out of ideas.” Kagra grunts, “I’m not.” Din grunts pulling on his jet pack. “Don’t you dare.” I hiss, “Here he comes!” Cara calls. “Din Djarin!” I warn, but it’s slightly muffled as Cara starts shooting. “Dibu e Debu!” I screech when Din takes off, I watch as Din shoots up high into the sky and just over Gideon’s ship when he flys over the top of us. My eyes go wide when I see Din shoot his grapple into the ship before he proceeds to be dragged by it. “That fucking dumbass!” I snarl, “You married that dumbass.” Cara shot back, “I almost regret it.” I huff watching my fucking Riduur be dragged through the air by a gunship. Typical Mandalorian.

I hold my breath as I see the shimmer of his Beskar tumble across the ship, only for him to let go. Seconds after he does the wing of the ship explodes but eyes are set on Din as he free falls. Catch yourself, fucking catch yourself. I exhale sharply when his jetpack ignites and softens his landing when he’s closer to the ground allowing him to land on two feet. I hurriedly step out of the ship and speed walk over to him, only to draw my blade and knock him in the helmet with the dull side. The Beskar on Beskar makes a much prettier sound than the sight of Din getting his head rung for the second time today. “You're crazy!” I seeth, “Not as crazy as you, Riduur.” He chuckles. Warmth bursts in my chest as he uses the soft term, “I’m not going to let you charm your way out of this.” I glare.

“Very impressive Mando, very impressive. It just looked like your guild rates just went up.” He chuckles, “I'd fucking hope so?” I huff with a smirk. “Anymore stormtroopers?” Din questions, “I think we cleared out the town.” Karga hums. “If not I’m sure I can clear it out for you.” I grin savagely, “No need, I’ll take care of it.” Cara smirks. I let out a dramatic sigh, “Rebels get all the fun.” I grumble teasingly, an action that makes a grin beam across Cara’s face. “You're staying here?” Din questions, “Why not? Navarro is a very fine planet.” Karga scoffs gesturing to the world around us. “Yeah and I’m the Alor of the Mandalorians.” I tease with an eye roll. “Now that the scum and villany has been washed away, its respectable.” Karga continues despite my sarcastic commentary.

“As a bounty hunter hive?” Din questions, “Some of my favorite people are bounty hunters.” Kagra shrugs, “And perhaps this specimen of a soldier might consider joining our ranks.” He suggests not so subtly to Cara as he places a hand on her shoulder. “Yeah. I got some clerical concerns regarding my chain code.” Cara draws out. My attention is drawn away from the two when I feel the child shift in my arms, he leans over to place his hands on Din’s engraved poudrin causing said man to point his helmet in our direction. “But you two, you are welcome back into the guild with open arms.” Karga offers with wide arms, “So, go off, enjoy yourself. Have a honeymoon newlywed and when you return you will have your pick of all the quarries.” He chuckles.

Din turns over to me and gently takes the child from my arms, “I’m afraid we have more pressing matters at hand.” Din replies. I sent the two a small smile with a shrug, “Take care of the little one.” Cara mumbles reaching forward and rubbing the child’s large ear. “Take care of it, or maybe it’ll take care of you.” Kagra chuckles softly, “May the gods be your favor.” I smile before taking the child back into my arms and facing Din. Din nods before wrapping my arms around my midsection, I hold my breath when he takes off into the air. His grip on me is tight, but I tuck the child close between us.

We didn’t even land before I spot Kuiil’s body, together we buried the ugnaught under a pile of stones with his hat on top. “May the gods welcome you home, and your child meet you at the gates.” I whisper looking down at the pile, I let Din usher me into the ship where I collapse into the passenger seat with the child in my lap. I lean back and close my eyes as I hear Din start the ship, “(y/n), what does he have in mouth?” He calls. I open one eye and glance down, “Your necklace.” I hum, “Huh, didn’t think I’d see that again.” He mumbles. “There’s a lot of things I didn’t think I’d see again,” I snort, I heard a chuckle crackle through his modulator. “Why don’t you hold onto that, maybe you’ll stop trying to eat your buir’s.” He muses, “Doubtful.” I scoff playfully. “And (y/n).” He calls again, “Yes Din?” I sigh softly, “Ni kar'tayli gar darasuum.” He answers. A smile beams across my lips, "The stars will go out before I forget you.” I laugh wistfully.

Scuttle (11/?)

Short-ish piece just because i wanted the next one to be longer (sorry)

Everything seems to be put on pause for a second as your brain spirals out of control. Almost like your mind swims away from your physical body, and watches what happens next. 

“Me.” You say firmly. “It was my mistake, I am the snitch. I get to die.”Your voice is confident. So much so that you think Krexx might be impressed. 

“Then which of them gets to die?” He asks you, willing, wanting you to continue. 

“Neither, you get me, that’s it. That's the deal.” You do your best to remain as confident as possible but it’s slipping away quickly. 

“And why would I agree to that?” Krexx questions, wondering what plan you've concocted. 

“Because killing them wasn't a part of your orders. You kill an entire force of Troopers and the republic will demand your head on a pike. Kill civilians of a neutral planet and the republic gains yet another supporter. You have orders. So did I, I followed them, it got me here. You follow yours and this stops today.” You’re hoping the dramatic rhetoric is enough. It seems to be enough to make Krexx pause and think for a moment. 

“You say that like if i shoot you in here, your band of freaks won't tear my head off.” Krexx comments after a long period  of time. And you let out the breath you’d been holding. 

“Outside then.” You fire back. 

“Wren.” Crosshair says, and you can’t even meet his eyes. The crack in his voice is enough. 

“Outside then.” Krexx agrees. Motintiong for you to walk onwards the door as he picks up his blaser. “One more thing.” he adds, pausing as the two of you are almost to the door. 

You scream as the bolt hits Crosshair in the left leg. All plans forgotten as you turn towards him. He hits the ground on his good knee as Tech and Hunter crowd him desperate to save what's left of the burning flesh. Wrecker turns on Krexx who promptly grasps your bicep and points the gun to your head. 

“Just needed a little insurance that we wouldn't be followed. And he seemed to be a trouble maker.” He gives a nod to the scene in front of him, like an artist finally content with their work he pulls you from the house. 

Crosshair feels like his leg is being swallowed by Magma, it’s pain that burns bright all up his body. Tech does his best to get the ruined fabric away from the wound, but other than wrap it in non-ruined shirt material and put pressure on it there's not much that can be done. 

“Roof.” Crosshair gasps out, trying to move for his sniper rifle. 

“Crosshair, you put pressure on a wound like that and you might not be keeping that leg.” Tech tells him, trying to find anything resembling bacta. He feels a hand on his shoulder, the Twi’lek, Leeya he thinks her name is, presses a stim shot into his hand. 

“Stairs lead all the way up, on the right.” She deadpans, turning away from the group clutching onto her child. With a grunt, Crosshair stabs the stim shot into his leg, tying the material as tight as he can before the pain becomes overwhelming.  His hand goes for the gun again, and Hunter’s beats him to it. He opens his mouth to argue. 

“All due respect sarge,” Wrecker interrupts, taking the rifle from Hunter, and hoisting Crosshair to his feet. Wrecker goes to add something, but he doesn't, opting for a curt nod to his sergeant before dragging his half conscious brother towards the stairs.

My Baikal Bounty Hunter Coach Gun and .38 Special chamber adapters

Did some updating to my coach gun which I bought about a year ago on the second hand market for $200. Its a 12 gauge double barrel made by Baikal, which is a Russian company so like, no more of these are coming into the country because of the trade embargo. It’s become my go to gun for just about everything, hunting, wilderness adventures, fun on the range, fending off stagecoach robbers, combating Thanos’ minions, etc. I recent bought a leather shotgun shell holder/recoil pad that was handmade by Magnolia Leather Works on etsy. Shoutout to them.

https://www.etsy.com/shop/MagnoliaLeatherWorks

So as some of you know I have been experimenting with shotgun chamber adapters, which is basically a barrel you insert into the chamber of your shotgun to shoot other caliber cartridges from it. There are a wide variety of calibers including 9mm Luger, .380 ACP, .45 ACP, 38 special, .357 magnum, .44 magnum, .40 S&W, .22 LR, etc. These are marketed to survivalists, sportsmen and women, and wilderness adventurers as a way to increase the versatility of a shotgun. The chamber adapter I’m testing is the Shortlane Bugout in .38 special, which is a five inch (12.7 cm) long rifled adapter. 

It’s recommended that best accuracy is at only 10 to 15 yards. I did some plinking at 20-25 yards and found it was reasonably suitable for this purpose. So I set up some targets at 50 yards. 50 yards would be a reasonable range for hunting medium game (such as white tail deer) in the North American woodlands. This does not make your shotgun into a sniper rifle. In the plains of the Midwest or deserts of the West where longer range shooting is required these probably would be much less practical. Anyway once I figured out how this setup was shooting, I fired a six shot grouping at 50 yards offhand using the front bead as a sight. I aimed low to account for the gap between my eye and front sight (there is no rear sight) and aimed to the left because I was firing from the right barrel only. I was using Blaser 158 grain ammo, the cheapo aluminum cased stuff. Here were my results.

Note: The bullseye is roughly the size of a quarter.

So for the most part the accuracy isn’t bad, but I wouldn’t say it’s good. Five of my shots are grouped somewhat reasonably close to the bull and I had a one off shot. Problem is, I can get similar accuracy using 12 gauge slugs at twice the range. I was tempted to do more tests at 75 and 100 yards, but I figure this is probably the extent of it’s effective accuracy.

I would never take something like this out for regular hunting season. The accuracy is OK, but the velocity from .38 special out of a five inch barrel is not enough to ethically take medium game, thus I would never recommend it for that purpose. However, if I was in some kind of hard times desperation scenario, say Great Depression 2 Electric Bugaloo, ammunition choices are limited, and my hungry family and I need fed while “Winter is Coming”, this would be a practical option.
