Side note:

Is it me or does this this sum up Blackheart and Argent's relationship?

Stupid work Netnanny... can't see it until I get home

Edit: Got home. Saw Video
Nitram: Well... it's got the right title
Tev: *SMACK*
Still... I have to agree... that's very Blackheart/Argent.

Alright, not sure how that scene between Argent's shadows and Luminos' lightburst would have worked better, so I played it as I thought it should have done - he didn't get through Argent's shadows right away, and he was tired after he was done.

One minor note, and I'm no particle physicist so I can't go into much greater detail than this... but as I understand it a Photon and an Electron are very different things.

True.

I'm simply going with what he was doing at his intro, which did include some clumsy fun with electron flow.

If that isn't workable, I can omit it.

CRACKBERRY! THE BANE OF EXCHANGE!

Anyway - just so I don't misunderstand your message, here's a clarifying question: What? Who's "them?"

Actually, they share a lot of similar properties, and to be rather precise, they are very interlinked. Electrons create and are affected by photons in a very real sense. They are not the same thing, but affecting one can affect another.

Consider, for a moment, that this is how visible light can heat something up. Photons slam into electrons and excite them, and as the electrons drop back down to their regular state, they re-emit photons of different frequencies, quite often in the thermal infrared range, which then goes and excites the electrons of other atoms and molecules, and so forth. Of course, the excitation has another effect, which is causing atoms and molecules to bounce around faster, but that's another story.

Short version, it pays to remember that photonic control means more than just manipulation of visible light, as photons have a wide range of frequencies outside of the visible light band, and being able to control electromagnetic waves would bring with it the ability to manipulate electrons in, at a bare minimum, an indirect fashion.

For example, to heat up a room to avoid detection from thermal scanners, it would require control over thermal infrared frequencies. However, one way to fill a room with a specific frequency would be simply to manipulate the visible light spectrum to excite the electron shells of the air to emit the desired thermal wavelength.

Or, short version, it's not overly powered with his set, he won't likely be disrupting people's brains anytime soon, so I don't have a big problem with it. ;)

I've been told OOC by B4 we're not going to get to find them yet. We're going to have our own troubles.

If B4 will just get TO that point, we'd not be trying to make our own fun.

I was totally metagaming to try to bring you out of the cold and have some kind of closure. On the other hand, given Saibot's ego problems it would be a very plausible way to find him. :grin:

EDIT: A quick look with google for "r&d personnel salary" turned up that the average salary of an R&D employee was $68,900 last year.

Well, buying stuff used ain't so bad - they can be modified.

EDIT 2: Now that the knife's been mentioned, should we cue the theme "ominous jingle #4?"

Before anyone asks... other than a sense of *anger/annoyance*, this is all confined to Hydro.

....hey, Saibot was keeping nice and low profile in the two weeks since he got broken out of the shuttle... his Ego never came into play since the Street incident.

The sad part is how few truly -HAPPY- thoughts I came up with for Argent.
