  1. Do NOT take the cookie! At least until you read all of Mistborn...
  2. As Citona walked down the busy street, she saw a vendor's stand. It appeared to be selling fruit, but had the markings on the awning that showed it to actually be a weapons dealer. Citona hadn't had a good gun in ages, so she headed in its direction. The vendor recognized her in only a few seconds. She smiled at the dawning realization on his face. "How much for that banana?" The vendor began to look nervous. "For you, Mis- Lady Vinid? Only 8, my special price." "Did I hear you correctly? You insult me. 8 as a special price? I will give you two. And you'll be happy with it." "Of course, Lady, but this is a special piece as well," said the vendor, scurrying to the other side of the table obsequiously. "Now watch carefully." The man must have begun burning iron, as each nail in the table began to quiver and pulled up. The gun didn't move. "Obviously a trick. Where would you have procured such an item?" "Ah, remember the... business with a certain Compounder last year? The golden one?" "Of course. Why would I not?" "I have certain... contacts in the police. They sent me this." Citona sniffed. "A likely story. I can offer you five, however, since it intrigues me." "Very well, Lady Vinid. Would you like anything else today? A holster? It does come with bullets, but would you need any more?" She could tell he was dying to find out what she wanted an aluminum gun for. "No thank you. I'll be on my way." The man looked disappointed, but he took the proffered money and gave her the gun stealthily. She put it under her coat and continued walking. A few hundred yards later, a shout rang out. As she turned, she saw a tavern door bang open and a rather diminutive man rush out. He appeared to be chasing a hobo that had leaned against the tavern wall. Was this a mugging? Such things were common in the Roughs and the Rougher parts of Elendel City, but Citona had only seldom witnessed one in the nice parts of town. Now the short man was shouting at the hobo... something about... execution? Whatever it was, Citona'd had enough. She checked her metal minds to make sure, but she'd not used them much since that nasty little incident a few months back, and they were reasonably full. I can spare some to help the hobo. She started pushing through the crowd, slightly increasing her strength to do so. Just enough to help, but not so much to make a spectacle. It was a delicate art, and very difficult. Indeed, several people were pointing in her direction already, wondering why they'd been moved so easily. Finally, though, she made it through, and marched righteously up to the shrimp. "You put him down right now! I'll have the law on you if necessary!" The man turned toward her and let his captive go, but he still was stuck to the wall. A coinshot, then. Chitin knew how to deal with those. "I said NOW! Stop Pushing him!" Just to make sure he knew she meant business, she increased her strength much more and smacked him across the face.
  3. Excellent! I guess I'll post?
  4. Indeed?!? I highly doubt that in fact just the other day I was telling my brother how I thought that on occasions like this one during which I tend to talk more than normal but then again what really is normal in this case it could even be that the situations during which I am long-winded occur so much that they themselves would be considered normal so to speak but regardless I was saying to him that I believed he often wished I would get to the point of long sentences much like this very one actually in which I have the tendency to drift on and on while using very many relative clauses which may even have uses of the subjunctive in them which would be extremely difficult to translate into Latin which I have been studying at a camp in order to go to Texas which is very hot almost as hot as poorly-air-conditioned apartments in Rome which may even catch fire which certain sticks will not do rather like some people having a point to their sentences which I will not do as you can see from this very long winded sentence which just keeps going on and on like a long hose or rope which could potentially be used for Awakening so in the case that sentences were ropes and all people had infinite breaths one would wish to stay far away from me which people also tend to want to do if they hear that someone had indirectly challenged me to a contest of inbrevity which some people don't like it even fear or even hav a phobia of in which case they would have sesquipedaliophobia and the reader of this sentence which is you now possibly does as well.
  5. Ok! Hmm... how about a Brute?
  6. Hello! Is this still open for newcomers? If so I'll be Citona Vinid, a cadmium compounder. (Allomantic cadmium, Feruchemical cadmium) I know you said no twinborn, but neither are particularly powerful together or alone so I thought it might be okay.
