[ LUKE REALLY CHOSE A GUN... Well, some shots hit, but some shots are intercepted by the serrated whips. They're caught between flaring fetters, but Callisto does slow down because of the shots. ]
You also use a gun.
[ Sensation soup says they have poor opinions regarding guns. ]
But whatever. It's fine. IT'S FINE!!! He's not inspector gadget for nothing. As they're talking, he simulates a smoke bomb--he tosses it between them, as a cover, to see if he can try to get closer; mostly, he's testing to see if Callisto will take over the simulation, or roll with it.]
[ Sound are more sane than others? But Callisto really is not normal, I guess.
Callisto will not take over the simulation. They believe in winning through their own efforts... Which means there is smoke here now! They're feeling around with the serrated lines slithering along the floor.
Watch your ankles, Luke. I hope they aren't bare. ]
[THEY ARE NOT BARE DOES HE LOOK LIKE WOLFWOOD TO YOU...
This is good to know, though. He's light on his feet, trying to get within a range that might make it more difficult or awkward for Callisto's tentawhips to catch him. If he can get close enough, he'll definitely aim a kick at Callisto--HOW TALL ARE THEY. WOULD IT MAKE SENSE TO AIM AT THE HEAD if not he'll go for their chest.]
[ looks at the height chart Luke can get the sense that Callisto is around Shu's height, which I think that Luke can feasibly try to kick them in the head. Without the smoke, they'd normally be able to grab him by the ankle, but with obscured vision they have to block with their forearms instead.
The bladed whips don't seem to have an awkward range. They move like extensions of themselves. THEY CAN KEEP GOING AT THIS... AND FORWARD TO THE SPAR ENDING. ]
We have artillery to clear out asteroids and debris, but with some calibration they can be used to track and target cosmic horrors if we ever see them.
[ There is the smallest fear of the unknown. ]
Inside, there is a lockdown if abnormalities are found within the ship.
I guess that's true. [There is zero sense of apology in his emotions.] It's only been a few days, you know. It'll take longer than that for us to adjust to all of this.
I didn't mean letting everyone have access to the ship's controls--[That's a special privilege he is pushing for, even though he knows he won't get it]--but we aren't supposed to be kept behind these gates, right? I heard they're being opened slowly to prevent the system from crashing again, but that doesn't inspire a lot of confidence for those of us who just got here.
In the end, your assessment would be unnecessary, considering you wouldn't understand the ship's systems. They are near incomprehensible, even to a genius, because IT is full of imbeciles.

In that case he's going to switch gears and just fucking simulate a gun to start shooting at Callisto]

Once it's over, Luke will just sprawl on the floor, his feet planted on the ground and his arms out.]
I hope that's not the standard level of risk we'll be facing.
[He's certain he'd be fine, and maybe a few of the others, but definitely not the whole group.]

[ To not get rusty. Callisto stays standing with a wide stance, wound up and everything. Maybe they need to learn how to relax?? ]

Are you sure you don't want me to take a look at your systems? I think everyone would feel better if they had access to the full ship.
