((Don't dare bring up PTSD or any kind of that.))
((It would also be appreciated if you didn't cause PTSD.))
((It's all up to the rolls though. Hopefully it'll end up well.))

((...I overshot a speech roll..and it.. >_>
When do speech rolls become useful in a way that you can explain something without swearing like a drunken sailor?!))

((Is it really possible for someone to get really existentially-angry without profanity being blurted out chaotically? While there are people who just don't curse, and won't curse even in a tense situation, that type of person wouldn't be common in the forsaken universe of ER, where elementary school textbooks refer to the entire cosmos as "The Fucking Fuck Shit".

The whole thing probably started with your whole defense of 'Clean Rap'. :P))

Because trying to stuff Fate/Whatever's engrish and the title of a 17th century book on statecraft into Pokemon syntax tends to make the content incomprehensible.

((Well with the magnetic manipulator you can simply use the magnetic feild to influence charged subatomic particles soooo, yes you can shoot lasers out of thin air, although it would be uber hard and probably result in some horrible china-9 all over again))
"I really should be more careful"
use magnetic manipulator to shred anyone with the gantries, who is preventing access to d-663 or attempting to kill use fine members of the HMRC, enter the hangar when done & team arrives, being sneaky

So it was like a binary search, except the question is "Has the input been brutally murdered?", and it only ever returns True.

((I don't think heating something that is right above us to a ridiculous degree is very smart. Worst case scenario we become +metal statues+. This is a finely crafted metal statue. It is encrusted with sharkmist and HMRC. On the item is an image of HMRC and Pancaek. Pancaek is laughing. The HMRC is melting. The artwork relates to the encasing of the HMRC in metal by Pancaek during the Mission of Many People.))

((Guard dogs are trained to bark at intruders in order to alert their owners and frighten people, while more feral, predatory, murderous dogs bark less and bite more, as far as I know. Wolves hardly ever bark at all. After all, you don't need to frighten something you want to kill, as that tends to make it run away faster.))

((But, specifically in regards to Existential anger?
I don't think so.
Yeah, there's something about the word 'Fucked' which no other word can compete with in regards to how bleak/dire a situation is. Hopeless is too depressive and less angry.))

((There's always quiet anger.

((Why yes, yes it is.))
((I didn't say dangerous to other people. Specifically in regards to the girl who turned herself into a blender prototype.))

((you can, although to get anything worth it would be dangerous, ican be done by exciting electrons in a  uniform direction around atoms in the substace that would be the origin so that they move to a highger energy and once moved outwards by several quanta released producing a photon = lasers out of nothing ))
