What are you even talking about?

[allomantic]

[pausing... gears turning in her brain...]

You don't know what an allomancer is?

[pura]

Should I...?

[allomantic]

I - yes? Everyone knows what it is...

[frowning lightly]

Where are you from?

[pura]

[Also frowning lightly, for entirely different reasons.]

... Japan. Are you sure everyone knows what it is?

[allomantic]

Everyone where I'm from.

[but she sure hasn't heard of japan, so she pauses.]

Is that far from Luthadel?

[pura]

[A beat.

And slowly, like she's not happy to admit it:]

I don't know. I've never heard of it.

[Then, quickly:]

More importantly, you're sure you're okay? What's this "allomancer?"

[allomantic]

[she pauses in turn, deciding how much she wants to reveal about it, before:]

My abilities work from metals in my body.

[so she had a perfectly legitimate reason to shove a metal shaving in her mouth (did she).]

But it is not working for some reason.

[pura]

... Isn't there already iron in your blood...

[That is not a perfectly legitimate reason to shove a metal shaving in your mouth, ma'am. Why would you do this.

Nogiku huffs out a breath, pulling back.]

I don't know what abilities you mean, but it already didn't work once. Do you plan to try again?

[allomantic]

Iron isn't one of the metals that would be useful here. I was hoping for tin or pewter.

[she frowns, shaking her head.]

Either it's an alloy that's too weak to have an effect, or... There is something else going on.

[pura]

... I see.

[Incredible. She has no idea what the fuck she's talking about.]

Well, as long as you're sure your insides haven't been torn to shreds.

[allomantic]

It was not a large shaving.

[but also, because she's suspicious of everyone even though nogiku does not deserve it:]

Why do you care? We have never met before.

[pura]

[She's valid, though. Nogiku does not look particularly offended or anything, tbh. She just tilts her head, clicking her tongue.]

Human decency.

[Anyway—]

If you're fine... Try not to eat any larger shavings.

[Her work is done here. Unless Vin has something else to say, she's just going to start to leave.]
