*beats Antubis*

Which is, really, the wrong reaction here. I should be feeding him chocolate-covered ants and absinthe, because he's been doing yeoman's work for the past couple of weeks. But, still, I'm a little frustrated

Thank you!

As for the not ever shutting up bit, I hear you and feel your pain [g]

[agilebrit]

You're welcome!

Seriously, I have sentences fifty words long. I've apparently got at least one that's 65 words long, according to the stats.

I'd beat not!Tony, but any more would probably kill him, and there goes my Happily Ever After. NO, Antubis, you may not electrocute him just for fun. *frowny face*

Mmm... personal jewelry? Like, puncturing a carotid artery with a pin, or a cufflink? Using a bracelet as a garrote is unlikely, silver is too malleable to be used like that.

Sounds silly, but it's all I've got.

[agilebrit]

He's not really wearing anything like that.

Argh.

[word_smuggler]

Godfather III? Meaning, silver-rimmed glasses, perhaps?

[agilebrit]

I think I'm going to go with the mad scramble on the desk for anything, coming up with the pen stolen from the briefcase, and stabbination in the eye.

Then she can get an eyepatch, and decorate it, and have this whole pirate thing going, which he will find incredibly hot. lol

A poor terrorist is unlikely to have anything silver lying on his desk, unless things were brought back from the plane and deposited in the leader's office. Even then, it is highly unlikely that those items would include a letter opener. Even if it was a Mont Blanc pen, how likely is it that someone who is going to be ripped apart by a monstrous beast would grab a pen to defend himself? Most people aren't going to know the silver/werewolf connection. Of course, you and I know about silver's properties, but we're not most people!

[agilebrit]

Maybe he'd just be scrambling around on the desk looking for anything come up blindly with the pen, and stab her with it. Possibly in the eye...

I presume that the terrorist is a Muslim, as they all seem to be these days, but have you specified where he comes from? A Saudi or Pakistani wouldn't know about werewolves, and an Afghan wouldn't know how to find his backside with both hands unless there's some verse in the Koran to guide him, but if he was a Bosnian Muslim or a Kosovan he might have some relevant knowledge.

A silver ring would be acceptable wear for a Muslim terrorist because the Prophet Mohammed wore a silver signet ring. Or he could try to strangle Not!Pepper with a silver-plated lead from a high-end audio system.

[agilebrit]

I haven't actually specified his religion, and he considers himself to be a "freedom fighter." Of course, as not!Tony points out, "freedom fighters" don't strap innocent civilians to chairs and break all their ribs...

They're in Bosnia. All his ring did was burn her mouth and piss her off. I need to add some lasting effects from that; thanks for the reminder. :)

[texanfan]

Hmm. Religious symbols? Captured booty?

[agilebrit]

Apparently, from my reading, religious symbols don't work on werewolves. I'm thinking something from not!Tony's briefcase, but I can't for the life of me figure out what. Why in the world would he have a letter opener, since we do everything by email these days?

[texanfan]

I wasn't thinking of it being used like a cross with a vampire. More like a holy symbol might be in silver even if you couldn't afford silver for everyday jewelry.

[agilebrit]

Ah. Well, I used the stolen pen idea, because the idea that it's ALEX's pen is just too delicious and ironic. Plus, have I mentioned lately that I'm evil? I'm evil. Just so you know. ;)
