Mech Doll

CN: Combat, Violence

The Doll Who Would Be A Hound was not a some elaborate combat doll or twisted creation of a bored witch. She was originally a Garden Doll, until the war came and destroyed her garden.

She saw the Hounds piloting their mechs. Their Handlers shouting such things that would make even her porcelain skin blush. And she craved it. The quiet solitude of a witchless-doll less appealing than the heat and excitement they must be having.

But the Doll Who Would Be A Hound had little money, and no Handler. So it put together what it could. An old tape deck saying praising things on repeat. An old cargo loader. A flak cannon from a long forgotten war. The post driver she used to build her fences.

Ploushares wrought to armour. And finally a doll paintjob.
Where mechs might have lewd sayings and violent imagery, and be named such things as "Hellhound" or "Raven"... the Doll was still a doll. The flak cannon sported pink daisys and the designation "HeckPuppy"...

The Doll blushed at such strong language when she wrote it. Where other mechs had neural interfaces, she still had manual controls. When she found an old machine gun and added it to the top, she had to pull a string with her teeth to fire it.

At first the other pilots thought her a joke. Hounds, some of which even had limbs removed to fit their cockpits easier and move a little faster, with eyes lost to sensor arrays, chuckled at the slow plodding thing. Mech combat was a war of random walks,flechettes complex missiles and energy blades.

But soon they learned. The doll's manually aimed guns evaded the computers simply by flooding the air with lead and flak. The fragile advanced mechs being ripped apart, relying to heavily on speed than armour. Missiles struggled to lock on to the slow moving mech, thinking it terrain.
