[ Jesper is about to turn eighteen so he is young, but these were his when his mother died at age seven. He became the hunter for him and his Da and grew up with them at hand. He learned his impressive gun moves and fancy tricks young so by the time he went to Ketterdam a few years ago, he was already had a great deal of skill. There are a lot of troubled teenagers in his city, a corrupt system taking down the young early. He likes being trouble though. It's been difficult to adjust to being normal here, or as normal as he's going to get. No fights! No jobs! Alas.
He takes the gunblade, absolutely delighted, and gets used to the weight of it in his hand, slicing in the air a little bit. Safely, nothing will get chopped in the midst of his playing around. It's astonishing, he really doesn't think anything like that is possible yet in his world. There are a lot of kinds of guns, he has a rifle as well as these, but a mix like this seems very unlikely. Otherwise Kaz would've gotten them all one. ]
Isn't that what most people do? Steal better ideas from someone else and pretend it's yours.
[ A very skeptical mindset, but it's the sort of thing you learn in the Barrel. There is no innocence down there. Everyone gets their idea and powers from someone else. There's a ruling merchant class in Ketterdam, they made a lot of money off of the backs of other people's work. He already is in love with this gunblade but he hands it back to him respectfully. Maybe he'll secretly make a few of them in his own Horizon, he has quite the collection of weapons in the Van Eck Mansion. ]
That is usually my job, whereas my friend Inej is the knife person, getting in close and quiet. We all had our own thing in the gang.
[ He usually calls them a mercenary group, but oh well, it's a gang, that is what the Crows are. With all that entials. Inej is somewhere around here, probably being silent as she's listening to everyone else. ]
The highest tech I've seen is a tank. Impressive, I even got to drive it, but nothing too fancy like I've seen around here.
