[ It considers this. It's not particularly one for names - as much as it gives thought to them at all - but a name about winning doesn't sound bad. Winning means survival, survival means it lives another day, which is about the sum total of its ambitions both in Hell and here. ]

LIKE TO WIN
OK

[verfeuern]

It suits a warrior. You are pleased with it, then?

[mechanicalmortality]

[ It's a fitting enough name. It does like it, it thinks. ]

YES

[verfeuern]

Then that will be your name.

May I make a request, Victoria?

[mechanicalmortality]

OK

[ Sure? Why not. ]

[verfeuern]

Be more mindful of Ser Gabriel's helm, it is dear to him.

[mechanicalmortality]

[ He HAD been really mad about the helm, but what was V1 supposed to do about that! It hadn't broken all the other times it shot him in the face, how was it supposed to know that armor could break at all? ]

STABBED ME FIRST
BUT OK

[ It's not like it needs to give him a faceful of buckshot, as long as he doesn't try to actually kill it again.

Maybe it'll just throw stuff in his face. It can do that now he doesn't have a helmet. ]

[verfeuern]

Would it please you if I told him to be mindful of stabbing you?

[mechanicalmortality]

[ ...... ]

WHY WOULD THAT WORK

[ The sheer confusion is almost palpable. ]

[verfeuern]

Ser Gabriel is honourable. If there are terms, he will give them thought.

[mechanicalmortality]

[ It considers this, given its experience of Gabriel is limited to "guy who yells at me a lot". But...he does like humans more, it's seen that...

Fuck it, why not, sure. What's it got to lose. ]

OK
