Barbarella (where'd she come from? Where'd she GO?) is seated at a large table, several small pieces of plastic and metal scattered around her glass of something sparkly.

She twirls a bit of hair around her finger as she squints at a metal cartridge. Letting go of her hair, she picks up an oily rag and begins to scrub out the inside of the cartridge.

"Honestly," she tells the space blaster parts good naturally, "you are sometimes more trouble than you're worth."

"Oh, who am I kidding? You are entirely worth it." She kisses the cartridge and moves on to the next part.

What can she say? She loves her loyal guns!

"Most are. I once went to a queen's court where it was considered rude to uncover your face because otherwise, she would be tempted to steal it for her own." Barbarella scrunches up her nose at that. "That was one adventure I wouldn't want to repeat."

"Oh, this?" She twirls a bit of metal around her finger. "It's one of my blasters. Well, parts of it. It needed a good cleaning."

"I can see how that could be difficult," he says not a little worriedly. He's meet some terrible Elders and this Queen sounds like one.

"'Blaster'? I am sorry, I do not know what that word means. Is it something like a crossbow?"

"I worked out, in a way." She explains, snapping together parts and moving on to the next for cleaning. "When she copied my face and ordered me killed so she was the only one with my face, I stole her. And we had a long talk about how stealing people's faces and then murdering them is rather rude while we enjoyed one her kingdom's beaches, which she had never seen before. She kept my face, though I got to keep mine."

"I don't go back to that planet," and snaps the rifle scoop to the main rifle body.

"A blaster? A laser blaster? A gun? A gun without the need for explosive use of combustion?"

There is only so much history that Barbarella would even know.

"A... a crossbow?"

Palamedes blinks a few times considering his words.

"A crossbow is like a bow and arrow but is built more like your weapon. It has greater pull but takes longer to reload. What is a laser? Combustion? Like fire yes?"
