Jake's been teaching me to shoot. When we first met, he gave me a pistol. I... don't really like carrying it around, though. I keep it in my locker most of the time.
Self-defense sounds fine, but... I wouldn't even know where to start. I don't think I could even use a gun if we were attacked by monsters. Especially if you're using a sword...? I'd be afraid of hitting you.
