Nobody's concerned about the new throwing knives? That's normal? Even for Wapsi Square?
OK.
We didn't know much about Abbie before. But we're learning.

why would you worry about the throwing knives, what she can do is much, much, more painful and scary if she gets upset or suffers a anxiety breakdown... throwing knives are the least of are concerns,besides it would be quicker if she used them on us if we got sucked into her world tp say the leasteee wrote:Nobody's concerned about the new throwing knives?

...throwing knives? Huh?
He's mister GlytchMeister, he's mister code
He's mister exploiter, he's mister ones and zeros
They call me GlytchMeister, whatever I touch
Starts to glitch in my clutch!
I'm too much!

They might fit Sarge, but not Atsali, even with the randy rumors flying about.
Magnificently seductive minx would work better, and they would definitely perform the essential function of rumors: getting it all backwards. Atsali's not the one who makes the moves. She usually doesn't even catch the moves either, but that's beside the point.

*shakes head* Either Berdine is way more clueless than I'd expect, or she is way more cruel than I'd understood.

Now Atsali and nadette can one-up each other over whose sister is the most annoying.

It really does make all the difference. Opponents who are quite blase about a simple supersonic kinetic projectile tend to be taken offguard when the projectile is also a blade spinning at about 50,000 RPM.

Never liked the spin-up ones. At the velocities a plain simple dart is just as good as if your energy storage is good eough. All it's gonna do is turn to plasma on contact anyway.
Scary part is how many of us have likely built railguns... {hand raised}
