[ meanwhile, Yin continues to play around with the new appendage. opening and closing her fingers, raising and lowering and twisting things around to test the elbow's flexibility and response. ]

You know, I was thinking this could have had something to do with the hallucinations but... I've got both my arms in all those. And shotgun fists on my hands. [ she holds the palm near her face. ] I can't see where this thing would shoot from so that's not it.

[me_matey]

The fuck? Shotgun fists? -May perked up from her digging.-

[longwei2go]

...what, I didn't tell you about beating up those gangster thugs in the club? [ she is pretty sure everyone's heard the story by now. ]

[me_matey]

If you told me, I forgot. I've been busy with teenagers that have too much money all damn month, you gotta let me in on these fist things, man.

[longwei2go]

Right, right.


Well... it's like I said, these guys were fucking with me in a club so I showed 'em the floor. They were all dressed up the same. Black suits, white shirts, red ties and cheap sunglasses. When I punched one, it'd like blast 'em but. No blood. [ shrug. ] Don't ask me how I didn't paint the whole place red, but I'm pretty sure I set something on fire.

[me_matey]

Aw shit, fam, you sound like a John Woo badass! Also, catch! -May found the crooked crowbar, lightly tossing it towards Yin's lap. Probably not the smartest idea...-

[longwei2go]

[ there's no time to make a comment, as she's too busy catching the tool in both her hands.

that's a weird thought. "both hands". Yin is just as surprised at herself for thinking it as she was for having accomplished that so easily. ]

This feels way too easy. Natural. [ Yin gripped the two ends of the crowbar and started to push the bowed section against the top of her thigh. she strained and strained, and though it didn't budge an inch, neither did her new arm. ] Shit, that's — ugh — tougher than it looks!

[me_matey]

I wonder what its grip strength is? Just grab the end of the bar and try to pinch it.

[longwei2go]

[ for a second it feels like she's about to make progress but then, with a grunt, Yin stopped. ] The ... ? Oh. Hang on.

[ she clamped her fingers down near the flat tip and flicked the bar back and forth a bit. ] Seems solid. [ then she made swinging motions. ] Really so — [ all is fine and dandy until it slips out of her grasp and bounces off of the table and off into the wall. ] FUCK!

[ that's what happens when you try to grab smooth metal with smooth metal. ] Sorry, May. That's uh... probably gonna leave a ding.

[me_matey]

Eh, this thing's got a lot of those already, what's one more?

But damn... that thing really is amazing... What should we test next?

[longwei2go]

Looks like I'll need a glove for it, or something.

[ Yin scratches her chin with her left hand's fingers. ] Got any empty cans?

[me_matey]

Just stuff I've already crushed. Though I could empty one real quick. -May winks, motioning towards the beer fridge.-

[longwei2go]

Knock yourself out. I'll stay dry because there's no telling what the hell booze will do with advanced future motor controls or however the hell this thing connects to my brain.

[me_matey]

Aye aye! -May happily opened the fridge and pulled out a tall can, smashing a finger through the top and shotgunning the rest in what seemed like a single gulp.-

[longwei2go]

...one of these days, you're gonna cut your damn finger off. [ and Yin will be there to laugh at it while dialing 911.

she holds her hand out, ready to crush that can effortlessly once she's done so. the strength to do it isn't hers in the slightest, but the arm relays the command without any hesitation. ]

[me_matey]

Damn, son. That thing is pretty strong...

Wanna see what else it can crush?

[longwei2go]

Hell yeah. It feels... natural too. Stupid as that sounds.

[ she drops the lump of metal to the floor. ] What'cha got?

[me_matey]

-May grabbed a steel water canteen and tossed it towards Yin.-

That shit's pretty high tensile strength.

[longwei2go]

[ the canteen first bounces off her fingers. Yin juggles it with a laugh and, with her grip now secure, she starts to squeeze the bottom edge of it where it should be toughest. it's easy enough to dent but it's not going to crumple like an empty drink can.

at least, not until she lifts her hand up and then brings it down hard onto the table surface. that's more successful — but also more painful.

the cyborg arm might be capable, but the body it's attached to? not as strong as Yin would hope for. the impact causes her to hunch forward, grabbing her shoulder and hissing through clenched teeth. ] Motherfffffffuck!!

[me_matey]

Whoa, whoa, take it easy... -May was quick to rush over, settling a hand on Yin's back, while the other tossed the canteen aside.-
