Oki too, was one to seek the rifle range, or as near as the Vault could manage, and she too had skills to keep sharp and in practice. She was on her way in, carrying the instruments of her philosophy, when she heard and saw Natalia at the range and took up a space a respectful distance away, eyes afield, watching the other sniper work, and she let her work in relative silence. Once she had completed her set and headed oit, Oki took her own turn at the range, working out the proper cold barrel shot with the new weapon, zeroing the sights, even tasting and retesting the accuracy and then took rapid, practiced notes on the performance.
She rose after, with a chuckle, and returned to the workshops, in time to see Natalia once again, this time tending to every last nut and bolt, washer and toggle, with the intention of cleaning it thoroughly, complete with oiling. Oki set her own weapon on a gunsmithing table not far away, but wandered over, showing an interest in Natalia's regimen as well. She spoke clearly, from a few paces away, in full light. "We are of a kind, I can say with confidence," she said. "And forgive me, if I distract from your discipline." She tilted her head, gave a small smile. "It is nice to meet another, and not have them being on the other end of the scope for once."
