"Helloooo! You've reached Jaune Arc! If I'm not answering, it means I'm probably off somewhere fighting monsters or... doing something really awesome like saving a cat, or the president's son! You know how it is, a leader's schedule can be really hectic nowadays, ha ha! Just kidding, I'm probably in school, but I'd totally do those things if I ha-- [BEEP]"

[She sighs.]

I don't hate it.

[Not anymore. It's a designation and maybe when she was little she would have hated it. But nowadays the people who use it don't treat her like a thing. And she's Shiho to them first before she's ever C-03.]

People don't really give me nicknames, you know? [It's either Shiho, Sannomiya, or "Please, please don't tell anyone about my embarrassing past."

Okay, and Kaz called her "Mimi".]

[beaconed]

Well, I can't call this gun C-03, so what should we call it? Remember, it's gotta be legendary!

action

[good_ideas]

[He's naming a gun after her.]

Legendary-

[But the only vaguely legendary name she can think of is that awful one that Hyoubu came up with and she refused to humour him. Or worse yet: Encourage him??]

...What's wrong with just...using my actual name?

action

[beaconed]

Nothing, nothing! I love your name! It would just... get kinda confusing... heh. You know, like... "I left Shiho on my bed to charge". Sounds a bit weird, right? Hence why I was hoping you'd have an alias...

[WHAT ARE YOU SAYING TO AN IMPRESSIONABLE HIGH SCHOOL GIRL, JAUNE]

action; 2/2

[good_ideas]

[No, be cool, Shiho.]

Well. Yeah. I-I guess.

...How about you just give me an alias or something, then? I'll use it.

Psychometer!!!!

action; 2/2

[beaconed]

W-Wait, no, that's... that's a secret. Right.

--Oh! I know! Shiho, I have an idea!

[good_ideas]

[He's lucky she spoils her friends otherwise she would have said something sarcastic about how she isn't the only psychometer here..]

Okay. Let's hear it.

action;

[beaconed]

Okay, check it out. You have the power to track-slash-read anything you touch, right? But it's also a secret, so we can't call it esper or psych-- you know what I mean!

So how about we call it "Tracer"? [ GET IT? ] That way, I think of you when I use this gun-- which I guess I already do anyway since I wouldn't have it if it weren't for you, so... so it fits! Right?

[good_ideas]

[Her eyes actually widen as he makes his suggestion and as soon as he's done she's smiling.]

That's pretty clever, actually.

[Not to mention legendary enough that even Hyoubu would approve.]

It fits perfectly. [She tries not to feel too giddy over the thought that he'd think of her whenever he uses the gun.]
