Oh? You know him? I wanna give him a piece of my fist— I mean mind.

(that smile isn't going away.)

He heaves out a sigh, smiling slightly.

"Look, I could be a hero of legend, but that doesn't mean I know how to — get rid of steel properly."

(folds her arms)

Geeze... unless your medieval high fantasy world had its Industrial Revolution, there's no good reason to do that. Japanese steel was a pain in the ass to smelt 'cause of how shitty our iron sources have always been.

Yeah, so don't throw it away! You're better off wiping your ass with gold.

"I can't carry much else," he says as he taps at the tablet on his hip, "this thing won't allow it."

You ever heard of non-magical storage? It's how people keep their stuff!

...Ugh. Y'know what, just give 'em to me. I can do shit with them, even if they're not quite Japanese steel.

He shrugs. "They're yours for the taking."

...Yeah. Whatever.

(fishes the steel armor out of the trash can, placing it onto the mount which once held the tatami mat)

They come in various shapes and sizes, but all are heavy, or seem like they should be for him.

"What're you thinking of doing with it?"

Iunno. Make better armor. Use it for other projects. If I can get it into different levels of softness, maybe I could make a couple Japanese blades out of them.

(once she's put a heavy cuirass on the stand she summons the Monohoshizao again)

Oh yeah, and stress relief.

(is... she gonna cut armor with a thin blade like that?)

Oh yeah. With Servant strength, it should be easy... but the hard part is cutting it in such a way that I don't damage this sword.

(she's taking a stance)

He takes a step back.

"Should I shield my eyes? Or myself?" he asks as he reaches for the shield on his back.

Just don't stress me out, OK? I gotta calm down to make this work... that's what I mean about stress relief.

He stops and puts his arm back at his side. "Right."

...

(Mura doesn't seem to move...)

—!

(but with a sharp intake of breath, she slashes through the cuirass thrice—!)

(because of the irregular shape of the armor, it doesn't fake being in one piece like the tatami mat did, the steel crumbling away into cleanly pieces)

He seizes for a second, wincing, before his body loosens.

"...Well, color me shocked," he says, before looking at the sword.

...

(Mura has to look it over, to make sure it doesn't have any chips on it...)

...Bah. I'll buff it out when I've got time.

(it... doesn't have any visible chips on the edge, though? To Link, it looks like it didn't sustain any damage whatsoever)

Eeeeeyup. Which means I wasn't completely calm. Which means I've gotta be calm to pull this shit off, which is why it's called stress relief.

(after a glance over the Monohoshizao again, Mura gives another "bah" before dematerializing it)

Yeah, no, I'm fine. At this point I'd rather not waste this steel.

(starts picking up the fragments of the cuirass, glancing over towards a lil' smelter she's got)
