Hey guys. Della Duck here, your favorite duck woman due to being the only duck woman in this world. Jumping on that bandwagon of "boy, that sure sucked big time", but I'm not gunna bore you all with moral dilemmas or trying to ask why life is mean. Instead, I need your advice on something we can all agree on - the best way to kick butt.

Now, in my world, all I ever needed to fight were my two fists of fury right here, maybe add in a roundhouse kick here and there. But, well, when your enemy is poison to the touch or makes you crazy, and yadda yadda, sometimes you just need a weapon to do the job. Yeah, magic's great and all, but we can't always rely on it. But we can rely on blunt metal objects!

That's where you come in, my fine folks. What are your favorite weapons? I wanna hear your opinion on the best kind of weaponry you've gotten your hands on, whether it's just to knock someone out cold, or un-alive them quickly. Like in this world, the sword is a popular choice, but you've got a whole range when it comes to those - claymores, short swords, broadswords, or you can shrink 'em if you wanna go for knives and daggers. Or maybe you're the type to improvise and use sports equipment for the job, like a bat or a golf club! Endless opportunities for sports puns with those, so win-win.

All right, I've done enough gabbing. Help me out here! What is the best type of weapon, so say you?

... you're really avoiding the word "kill" here, huh?

In any serious fight, you're obligated to use the most efficient and effective weapon or technique at your disposal. If it's not serious, you can do whatever the hell you want, so do what you feel like! So which are you going for, here?

[sos_pilot]

I guess your weapon of choice is your voice, since you went straight for the jugular, huh?

[sos_pilot]

Come on, can't you give a little more flavor for your answer? Don't you have any preferences?

Fill in the blank - if you were surrounded by big, hairy, toothy, hungry monsters, you would think "Boy, I wish I had a...?"

[morganknight]

..."audience to watch this". Seriously, if I'm legit in danger from those monsters I'm using kinesis magic. There's no weapon that can compare to that. Enemies can't see the attacks coming, they can't prepare for them, and properly applied it can take down literally anything threatening.

[rustyhonesty]

[That does get a chuckle out of him. She's not entirely wrong.]

Sometimes. But usually I use a broadsword. I also have experience with firearms, but Avalon doesn't have those so swords are my main focus.

[sos_pilot]

Bah, you're taking all the fun out of this. You go to movies and yell out plot holes too?

[sos_pilot]

There we go, now we're talking! One vote for broadsword! The weighty grip in your hand makes you feel pretty powerful, huh?

Can wands count as weapons like they are in my world? But the one I have with me is not functioning in here for a long time.

My Whip Sword combined with martial arts and magic.

[Though she hasn't used any of those to kill anyone... because she hasn't even un-alived anyone ever.]

[sos_pilot]

Ehhhhhhh.... If you see 'em that way, then I guess it can count?

[sos_pilot]

You describing me, or your favorite weapon?

[ A playful wink before she laughs. ]

Aw yeah, can't forget explosives! You gotta put in the perfect timing, so it takes real skill to master those!

[sos_pilot]

... Whip sword. Is that a sword that can also act as a whip?

[ Look how excited she is! You can't let her down now! ]

[bakudan_bambino]

It’s my favorite. I won’t claim it to be the best, but I’ve been throwing dynamite since I was a kid!

Timing is just about everything, but I’ve got all sorts of bombs! Even duds for practicing!

[rustyhonesty]

Yeah. On to of that, you have to be comfortable with how it feels in your hands. That's why I forged my own sword.

[phoenixwiz]

Understood. Back where I am from, not many wizards use swords, except for one of the founders of my school: he had one on hand. We usually use wands as a tool to channel our magic from.

The thing is the wizard doesn’t choose the wand, it is the wand that chooses the wizard or witch. It can take a while to find the right wand for the right user.

[mistrustingheart]

[She's cute. The excitement sure reminds her of someone... or maybe it's the fact that she's not a human, that reminds her even more of someone else.]

Yep. It becomes like a long-bladed string for grab anything, throwing things away or attacking with it from afar. And the name doesn't say it but it also acts as grabbling hooks for jumping over long distances or helping me from falling down from some really bad high places too.

[hitokiri]

yeah
but also thats just facts

[sos_pilot]

Well hey, with that much practice, you sound pretty close to "best"! I'd love to see that in action sometime!

[bakudan_bambino]

Oh no, I’m not the best at anything.

[Maybe fucking up everything. He’s a super stellar disaster.]

I wouldn’t mind showing you whenever you’d like. I used up a great deal in the fighting, but I can and have made more…

Obviously, bows are the best! Doesn't matter if your enemy has the finest sword in the world, if you can take them out with a well-placed arrow first.

[sos_pilot]

Whaaaaat, you made your own sword? Dude, your "cool meter" is rising high with no stop in sight!
