Maire notices the sun peeking through the sky. "Hey the sun is coming out." Callie runs over to the window. "Yay we don't have to stay in here all day!" Hunter and Maire chuckle seeing her enthusiasm. Marie looks at Hunter. "I want to see what you do during a normal day." Hunter starts to blush as he rubs the back of his head. "Well I don't exactly do much, but you are welcome to come watch...uh...wont you get mobbed by fans?" Marie giggles. "I have ways of hiding in plain sight" Hunter nods. Callie had already gone to her room to get dressed for some shopping. Marie heads to her room to put on her disguise. When Maire walks out she walks up to Hunter. She was wearing a large jacket and ski boots. Her hair was hidden under a large cap. "See i told you i could hide in plain sight" Hunter chuckles. "I don't know what you mean Marie told me that. I don't know you" Marie punches him. "Ha told ya!" Hunter chuckles. "Well lets not let Sheldon wait much longer." Marie nods and they take there leave. Callie was right behind them but she was dressed up like normal to go shopping. At the entrance they wave bye to each other. Marie follows Hunter to Sheldon's weapon shop, and Callie heads off to do some shopping. Marie was holding onto Hunter's arm He smiles at her. "You know people will find out sooner or later that were dating." Marie giggles. "I know, but its nice to have some privacy to be with you." Hunter smiles as they walked to Sheldon's shop.
Upon entering the shop Sheldon waves Hi to Hunter then looks at the girl handing off of his arm. "Hunter who is your friend?" Hunter looks at her. "Sheldon can be trusted." Marie nods and removes her hat and winks at Sheldon before putting her hat back on. Sheldon laughs a bit. "My what a catch Hunter. Well anything i can do for you?" Hunter nods. "I'm here to work on a few weapons." Sheldon was confused. "Your on a date and you want to work?" Marie giggles. "I asked him to show me what he does normally." Sheldon rubs the back of his head confused. "Um..ok. The alley is still damp so you wont be able to test weapons for a bit as it drys, but the weapons in the back are waiting for repairs." Hunter nods. "Thank you Sheldon." Marie waves as they head to the back. Marie lets go of Hunter's arm as he starts to inspect the weapons. Maire could spot a few obvious defects. "Why do you repair weapons instead of playing games?" Hunter chuckles. "Turf wars don't interest me very much. I always find more pleasure out of seeing my repairs helping keep people playing." He was examining a Octoshot Replica unsure what was wrong with it. "Then there is story behind the weapon itself. As a player uses the weapon dings and scratches appear all over the weapon. No two weapons are ever alike. Much like this one. It fairly new, but from what i can tell is the barrel is jammed." Marie looks at the weapon. "How can you tell?" Hunter chuckles. "I can't actually, but its an educated guess as the rest of the weapon looks fine." Marie was confused. "Ok...what about that roller?" Hunter puts down the Octoshot Replica, and picks up the roller. "OK...From examining the weapons. The user is fairly new to rollers. The grip is loose as sign of him trying to wild this like a gun. The Internal spreader has been damaged due to him using it so roughly and improperly." Marie tilts her head. "Him?" Hunter shrugs. "Could be a her...I just make a guess depending on what parts get damaged. Male players tend to damage the whole gun. where Female tend to damage critical parts from over use. So put simply if the damage is visual i assume its male." Marie giggles. "All that from just looking at the weapon?" Hunter chuckles. "Yea i have had a few years of working on these."
He picks up a Splattershot Jr., and hands it to Maire. "Can you spot the issue?" Maire examines the gun turning it around looking over it carefully. "Um..i don't see anything wrong...Oh!" she had pulled the trigger and noticed no resistance. "The trigger is broke!" Hunter smiles and nods. "Yes you are correct." He takes the Splattershot Jr. back and and begins repairing it. Hunter was working very quickly. Marie was watching, but was unable to keep up. "Um...what did you just do?" Hunter looks at her seeing her confused expression. "OH...sorry...sorry...I'm so used to working fast. Hunter points out the various pieces he removed then showing the repaired part. Then slowly shows the repair process for the weapon's trigger. "See?" Marie nods. "I do now." Hunter nods as Sheldon walks into the back. "Um. Hunter did you repair a Splattershot Jr.?" Hunter nods. "Just give me a minute and it will be." Sheldon nods. "The owner is outside ready to take it. He is the dark blue inkling with blue tips." Hunter nods, and quickly finishes the repair work. Then taking the weapon into the main room. there were several Inklings there looking through weapons. The dark blue inkling with blue tips was over by the wall by himself. He looked worried. Hunter walks up to him. "Here is your weapon back. Word of advice. Don't squeeze so hard on the trigger." The inkling nods. "Thank you" Hunter nods and waves as the inkling left to go play some more games. Marie was right behind Hunter watching him work. "He seems familiar." Hunter nods. "Yea...oh well. hopefully he wont break his gun for a while." He heads into the back. Sheldon stops Marie and hands her a weapon from the group that turn it in for repairs. "Take this back there for me?" Marie nods, and takes the weapon to the back.
Hunter had started work on the other pieces and went slow so Marie could see. He tests every weapon that had damage to the ink handling parts. Once Hunter gives his seal of approval he puts the weapons in a special spot listed repaired. Maire smiles. "Think next time i can help?" Hunter nods. "I don't see why not, but i will be judging your repair work." Marie looked nervous. "ok." Hunter pats her back. "I'm sorry i take repair work seriously. If a weapon fails critical at full charge it can do major harm to its operator and anyone nearby." Marie nods understanding his dedication to safety. Hunter leads them out waving bye to Sheldon. Hunter leads them to a place that sells great smoothies." The Jumbo-torn listed the maps for today's games, and a message about the squid sisters had a day off. Marie giggles seeing the message. "I like our new manager." Hunter nods. "Yea she actually treats the two of you as a person instead of a thing to make money." After Hunter and Marie got there smoothies they head back to the penthouse.
