[Video] - We're talking about THIS thing that happened and NOTHING ELSE

Dudes! Check it out! I got sent home for a while and got a totally freakin' metal new mask! Literally!

[He flips down his new steel mask and models it.] Made it myself! Whaddya think? I think it's the coolest skull mask around myself.

[PRIVATE TO JUNKRAT, a little while after the first post.]

Hey, uh, listen dude. I wanted to say...I'm sorry for what happened when we first met. Guess I got a little trigger happy, huh?

I mean a well made sword would do better in a fight than a piece of sharpened piece of sheet metal bolted to a stick made of the same material.

And thank you so much for assuming I don't know anything about modern metallurgy despite how many months I've been here and the fact that knowledge of it is directly relevant to my power.

And I'm saying that, depending on the materials, even the sharpened sheet metal will do a better job.

You've been here for a little over six months. You come from a time before humanity invented machined metals and materials. While you may have learned a few bits of trivia, it's very reasonable to assume that you haven't caught up to the two thousand years of progress.

Wouldn't be fair to him. He's only had about twenty or thirty years of experience, even with today's knowledge at his fingertips. I'm much younger, but I also have the engineering and metallurgy knowledge of entire cultures in my databanks.

To put it into scale for you, it would be like putting someone who's spent a few weeks at culinary school against Gordon Ramsay.

Even if I only poured a sheet of metal, cut it out, and sharpened it, the mixes and tricks I know would be far beyond what he's learned about so far. If I went serious, well. I'd hate to embarrass a senior Legionnaire.
