Weaponry in Film; Friday, First Period [07/24].

[special_rabbit]

"Welcome back, everyone," Amaya, who was feeling much better now, thank you!, greeted the class with a nod of her, a pound of her fist into her palm to get things started. "I hope you're ready to get started on the attempts to recreate another unique and interesting weapon from film. This week, we'll be focusing again on a hand-specific weapon, though with a slightly different bent. This week is going to be all about augmentation, taking something and enhancing it, making it bigger and more powerful. Now, the main character of the series I'm going to show you clips from persues his augmented weapon out of necessity: when you lose a hand, what better way to make up for it than creating a weaponized one, am I right? You'll see in the film that he augments his missing hand with a chainsaw," in case you were wondering about the small pile of chainsaws on one of the worktables, "but our main focus is actually going to be in creating a coupling device for the hand that will allow an interchangable port for augmentation of a variety of different machines and weapons, because sometimes you might not want a chainsaw, sometimes just a little jigsaw or circle saw will do best. Or just knives! Or a harpoon launcher! Basically, there are options, and I encourage you to explore those options, but the films provide a blueprint around a chainsaw, so that's where we'll start.

"Chainsaw? Both an effective weapon and tool for every day use. Chainsaw hand? Now that is what I believe the kids these days would call 'next level.'"

Stop hanging out with Summer, Amaya.

"So," she concluded, "without further ado, we'll watch a few relevant parts of the movie trilogy where this idea comes from for inspiration, and then we'll get to work!"

Yeah, why was Rosa thinking that comment wasn't made because of noise sensitivity?

"Bit harder," she muttered, as if making it just loud enough to know Hot Goth Soon-to-Be-Not-Neighbor-as-Soon-As-Rosa-Stopped-Dragging-Her-Ass-About-Officially-Moving would hear her, but quiet enough that she could choose to ignore it easily, too, "to make it look like an animal did it with a chainsaw..."

Lucille could hear it, but pretended not to notice. She hadn't done anything wrong on the island, and wasn't planning to, after all, so there was no point in that cop going after her.

Why was she suddenly feeling defensive?
