[It's later in the day and the bomb has gone off, but someone hasn't yet heard about it. He's got a slightly more pressing question right now. It's a good one, really.]

HOW DO YOU FIGHT A PERSON WITH A GUN????

[He's also kind of an older guy too. Texting doesn't come natural to him.]

THEY ALL INSIST I GET A GUN AS WELL.

[Protection is what he wanted. Better armor that could turn any bullet? That would be more his style. But few had offered any good leads there. But to use a gun himself... it was a weapon without skill and without soul.]

There is nothing wrong with using a gun. Only a fool does not use all weapons at their disposal.

[There's truth in that. It does not sit comfortably with Victarion, who has been raised to believe in the Old Way. The key thing to being Ironborn is clinging to stupid suicidal beliefs and although there was never anything really written about guns, he feels that if the Damphair was here, he'd probably hate them.

In his cell, he looks at his burned hand. That was not the Old Way either...]

I WOULD USE MY FISTS IF I COULD. BUT MIGHT BE YOU ARE RIGHT.

[If a man will not face him as a warrior, then Victarion must use the same weapon that they do. But that does not mean he has to grant them an honorable death in return.]

[wallofbriggs]

Of course I am. I prefer to use a sword, but I can use a gun just as easily when I have to.

DO YOU KEEP BOTH AT ALL TIMES?

[wallofbriggs]

I'd be stupid not to. [Not that she has her gun with her here however.]

WHERE WOULD I FIND SUCH A WEAPON HERE? MUST I REQUEST IT OF THE ORBITERS?

[wallofbriggs]

Ask around. Buy one. How would you normally acquire a weapon?

[She is not suggesting stealing one even if that's how he takes it.]

THIS IS ASKING AROUND. NORMALLY I WOULD HAVE ONE FORGED FOR ME, BUT I DO NOT THINK GUNS ARE THE WORK OF SMITHS.

[wallofbriggs]

Depends on the gun. Originals were created by gunsmiths or alchemists. Now, there tend to be shops with such items.

I WILL NEED TO GAIN MORE SILVER. MINE WAS STOLEN IN THE MARKET.

[Which is sort of what got him in this whole mess to begin with. Lousy ass guards taking the side of the thief he strangled to death. Where was the justice in that?]
