[You know what Mayfield has been missing out on?

CHAINSWORDS

These machines you may know as 'sounder pounder tree cutterdowners' are somehow swords and your two favorite Warhammer 40k heroes are dueling with them.

None of the smoke associated with chainsaws is to be seen but the sound and the whirring of the blades can't be missed. Not to mention the sparks caused by the clash of blades.

Yes, they're clashing.

Standing a good foot and a half shorter than Garviel, Cain is somehow managing to not get a chainsword blade stuck in his head. He can't fight the Space Marine strength on strength but his ability to deflect the blade must either be instinct or awesome skill. Either way, they still pause every so often because fighting a frakking Astartes is like hitting your head on a brick wall.

Feel free to gawk, think they're insane, or that their weapons can't be wieldy due to physics but they still handle them like they're Jedi Masters.

At the park, of course.

Garviel and Cain will be tagging the threads separately and threadjacking between the two may happen.]

This is my personal melee weapon.

Entendres are here!

[thenorthernwall]

Noted. It's a bit bigger than usual, I'd say.

[hideandhero.livejournal.com]

Everything is a little bigger when I'm involved.

[thenorthernwall]

I'm going to have to see evidence of that.

[hideandhero.livejournal.com]

However you want it.

[thenorthernwall]

I'd offer to go head to head with you, but I haven't taken one like that on in quite some time. Even I know the limits of my own body.

[hideandhero.livejournal.com]

It's not just about your body. This thing will cleave your sword in two without a second though.

[thenorthernwall]

I can tell. One of my men had something similar. [He will never hear her say anything more fondly than that. Still ice-cold, but a soldier should be able to recognize a soldier's heart.]

[hideandhero.livejournal.com]

Hopefully this brings back good memories then.

[thenorthernwall]

Very good ones.

Let me have a closer look.

[hideandhero.livejournal.com]

[Grabbing the safety strip and offering it.]

HAHA NOW SHE HAS TOUCHED.. both their swords... wait. awkward.

[thenorthernwall]

[She takes it rather gingerly, just weighing it a bit before handing it back.]

You use these regularly?

I've got most of my kills with it. That thing is practically swimming in ork, tyranid, and heretic blood.

[thenorthernwall]

You don't clean it?

[hideandhero.livejournal.com]

Figuratively.

Not literally.

[thenorthernwall]

Ah.

...I don't have a sense of humor, Cain.

[hideandhero.livejournal.com]

I wasn't make a joke.

[thenorthernwall]

It was hyperbole. Regardless. It's fantastic. I'm definitely impressed.

[hideandhero.livejournal.com]

Maybe if you ask the big guy, he'll let you borrow his.

[thenorthernwall]

Mm. I'll think about it. I can't believe you use this on a regular basis. Heavy for an everyday weapon, isn't it?

[hideandhero.livejournal.com]

Give it back and I'll show you a trick.

[thenorthernwall]

Of course. [She surrenders it to him and takes a step back.]

[hideandhero.livejournal.com]

[Danger? NAH.

He just starts spinning the sword around his finger, keeping it balanced.]

See, it's not that bad.

[He's either stronger than he ever lets on or Olivier is hallucinating.]

[thenorthernwall]

[He gets the impressed eyebrow raise. And maybe the very impressed pursing of her lips.]

[hideandhero.livejournal.com]

[He tosses it into the air and it lands straight into its sheath.]

...I don't do my paperwork so I get a lot of free time...
