"Good to be here."
The man's voice was deep, a little gravelly. His voice really fit his look, gruff, yet not completely serious. He waited, almost like he was waiting for the other man to get to him.

-
[b]The man did indeed approach, extending a hand [/b] "I am Hawkwood. Who might you be, good sir?"
-
"Call me Gio." Gio shook the other man's hand, a firm handshake, but it wasn't like he was crushing his hand.
-
"It is a pleasure, and an honor. What has brought you to the Dojo, Sir Gio?
-
"Heard it was a good place to train. Want to get better with my rifle."
-
"Ah yes of course. Much like the others. The dojo is an excellent place to train, with some of the finest warriors and the most advanced technologies."
-
"Hm... Advanced tech? I don't really do advanced much, my rifle should probably tell you that much, but I might make an effort to check some of that stuff out." Now that he'd said more than a sentence or two, he could here a small twang of a Bostonian accent on his voice.
-
"There are many places to visit. Our very own weapon Smith. Our blacksmith or the emporium! Quite the array."
-
"I'll have to check out whichever one of them can make my rifle even better. Just bought the scope the other day, I'm warming up to modifying this old girl. Been through a lot, we have."
-
"It would certainly seem that way. I prefer my weapon." [b]He patted his greatsword [/b] "This technology is to difficult."
-
"A sword, eh? Low tech isn't always a bad thing. This gun's about as low tech as you can go without dropping down to muzzle-loaders."
-
"What are these loaders you speak of."
-
"A muzzle loader is when you have to put the projectile down the barrel of the gun. This gun I have I load bullets into the side."
-
"Oh I see. I once had an ally with this loader."
-
"Really? Muzzle-loaders are terrible guns. Did he have a musket or a blunderbuss?"
-
"He had one of those... Hand guns I believe."
-
"A flintlock? Those guns are utterly terrible. Horrible range, horrible accuracy. They don't even have that much stopping power."
-
"Yes a flintlock. However, at the time Twas the most effective weapon there was"
-
"The most effective weapon? He could only fire it once before throwing it away. Flintlocks only fire one bullet before they're ruined."
-
"Yes I am aware. It opened a new branch of weapons we previously did not have."
-
"Actually, the flintlock's design was never improved on. They went off a blunderbuss design originally to get the guns we have today. Well, the handguns and shotguns."
-
"To you, perhaps so. But my history is different."
-
"Really now? What kinda guns does your time have, then?"
-
"We do not have guns. The flintlock opened the branch, but we did not follow. We have swords. Bows. Crossbows"
-
"Alright."
-
"Very much alright."
