In Love and War [1952] (Tag: Bragi, and OPEN to anyone who wants in)
Idun knew she was at a severe disadvantage the moment Bragi presented the guns to her. They were deceptively simple in appearance, which meant that they were incredibly intimidating to look upon, and in all her years, Idun had never seen anything quite like them. Her husband handed her one politely, a gentleman to the end, and then they were both armed with three barrels of firepower. Three! It was wickedness to an extreme, and they had decided to fight one another with them. She knew this wasn't going to end well. Idun had very limited experience with guns, and Bragi had been able to fiddle with these prototypes for an undetermined period of time before he presented them to his wife. He could've practiced! Bragi might be an expert marksman by now! They each took their guns and, to be fair, bolted in opposite directions to spread the battlefield across their entire hall. But Bragi was an expert marksman, and he was very fast. Oh, she was definitely at a severe disadvantage.
