"Now, I figure we'll do something fun."
He would say with a sly smile. He would reach for the bag he brought and pulled out a whip.
"You wanted to learn how to use a whip, right?"

She stared at it for a long moment before looking up at Drake.
"Do I want to know why you have that?"

He rolled his eyes.
"I bought it because you said you wanted to learn. But if you're going to act like a brat, I can always go get my money back and see if you and your Virgin lover can figure out how to use one instead."

She narrowed her eyes and sighed, crossing her arms and huffing.
"Fine, fine! Just... Okay." She pushed herself up to her feet, stumbling slightly as her quivering muscles protested the movement.
Gidget took a deep breath, setting her feet to make sure she kept her balance.
"Do you know how to use a whip?"

Drake smiled coyly.
"Yeah, yeah I know how to use it quite well."

She rolled her eyes, but approached him.
"Alright... so... how do I use this? And is it even a viable weapon on the battlefield?"

"Viable? Ha, it can be deadly in the right hands."
He would demonstrate by tossing his bottle up in air and with a snap of his wrist he would launch the whip into the air and with a loud SNAP the bottle would be cut in half and fall to the ground. Then he would smile and look to Gidget.
"Or, you can use it non-lethally as well..."
He would say as he flicked his wrist to tie the whip around Gidget's ankle and yanking it to send her foot forward tripping her.

She screeched, managing to turn her body around at just the right moment to land on her hands rather than collapse on her back or hit her face. She barely managed to catch herself, but she did manage.
A weakling, sure. But a weakling with great reflexes.
She tried to kick out her foot to get herself free.
"It just seems very... Indiana Jones? Like, fiction. Not like it would work well."

"Says the person with bionic arms talking to the man would can manipulate his blood, see souls, and summon spirits."
He would say tapping his arms.

She sighed. He had a point. Kicking her foot out again to make sure she was clear, she pushed herself back to her feet.
"Should I carry around one that isn't, you know, in my arm? Because I've actually been thinking about that, and I was going to start looking into a couple of black market weapons dealers to find what I've got in mind."

Drake shrugged.
"It's up to you, honestly there is never anything wrong with having a back up weapon."
He would say tapping his sword. He would then point at the staff still stuck into the roof from his fight with WR.
"I can generate and create any number of weapons that, for all intents and purposes, are stronger than what I can wield but you never know when I'm going to be in an area where my powers don't work, of if I run out of energy to use my Qi. In your case you never know when you might not be able to open your arms, or find yourself in a situation where you need to fight but also hide your identity. So, yeah, having a back up weapon is a good idea."

"Alright... Then I'll get ahold of the people I know, and see what I can find. Until then... Let's get me familiar with a whip, and maybe even find something else I can carry around that I like."
She gave a slight shrug of her shoulders, obviously waiting for Drake.

"Alright, well, if you're planning on getting a whip of your own then that works cause I can only show you how to use it by hand, I've got no idea how to train you to use your arm whips. Thats something you're gonna have to figure out on your own."
Then he would walk over to her and hand her the whip.
"Maybe learning how to handle this one will be a good starting point. But first, your grip is important."
He would then situate her hand and fings to hold the grip just right.
"There get a good feel for it in hands. Move around a little bit but don't crack the whip just yet."

The weight of it surprised her a bit. She shifted it around, making sure to keep her grip correct. She even studied her hand, humming softly, her thoughts obviously working a mile a minute. She glanced up to Drake, and a slow, almost creepy smile began to take over her face.
She tilted her head to one side before nodding and slowly beginning to get the feel for how the whip responded to movements. Back and forth, up and down.

He noted the look and raised an eyebrow.
"The fuck was that."
