[The video turns on to the familiar face of Accord... except the bandage she was sporting before isn't there anymore. She also seems slightly miffed.]

I don't really think this is a great idea--

[Accord turns to address somebody behind her.]

It wasn't a great idea for you to get grabbed by an interdimensional anomaly either. Or bringing in another one of us. And yet here we are, aren't we?

...I'm sorry.

You made this bed, so we might as well lie in it. No sense hiding anything at this point considering we're already far more involved than Recorders ought to be. And you even got damaged! Honestly, do you want to end up broken?

Geez, I said I was sorry!

[Accord waves the other person off before readjusing the jewelry to show that she was, in fact, talking to... Accord? Only that one is clearly the one people know because she has a bandage on her cheek. She looks contrite.]

*ahem* I do hope my compatriot hasn't caused anybody too much trouble. Normally we have a strict non-interference policy in our work, but I suppose that's too much to ask for in this situation. *sigh* Anyway, I have been informed of the situation, and since this dovetails with our work, I suppose for now we will be more proactive. Although I really don't approve of such direct influence.

[The other Accord pulls her eye down and sticks her tongue out.]

Geez, they really sent a model with a stick up her--

[The foremost model clears her throat.]

ANYWAY. We are hereby offering our recording services on a more formal nature. If there are any questions, please feel free to let me know.

Or me! Come on, it's not like you're the boss!

I am simply interested in avoiding the loss of any more units. Is that too much to ask?

Selling, primarily.

Also, research!

We do make connections with reliable weaponsmiths, however. It's a necessity considering the age and use of some of our merchandise.

[hardtohandle]

Aww. I was hoping I found someone to help directly. Oh, well. I'll have to keep relying on not getting damaged for now...

[of_her_own_accord]

My apologies. We mostly entered into the profession because it helped provide for someone we needed to support. Although it turned out there were other advantages.

[hardtohandle]

Advantages? What, did you decide you liked it?

[of_her_own_accord]

[A2 suddenly chimes in excitedly.]

Have you seen some of the amazing stories that come with weapons? A weapon with a good history is like a historical record made manifest! And they're all so different. Some of them are scary, some of them are funny. How could we NOT get into that?

[A smaller voice; probably A1, sounding sheepish.]

Please curb your enthusiasm a little. They don't need to know all that!

[hardtohandle]

Aaah... That's right! [he sounds pleased] Every weapon has a soul, you know? There's no shame in being enthusiastic about that. In fact, it's cute.

[of_her_own_accord]

See? He totally understands! Lemme talk to him!

Wait, this is totally unprof --

[Nope, too late, you done been pushed aside by the one who's more enthusiastic about her fangirlism.]

I'm so glad you agree! Weapons gain a whole new life for themselves over time! Oh, I wish I still had some of my stock to show you. I bet I still have some of the stories left over, though!

[hardtohandle]

Really? I'm not really interested [or capable] of using a weapon that isn't mine, but... there's nothing wrong with knowing the stories.

Do you know any about katana?

[of_her_own_accord]

I've specialized a lot in Western weapons due to where I've been working, but I can probably think of a katana or two if I look through my records.
