More Pictures

A painting decorating the wall of the Longbow Officers' Club. I like the painting, and I'm betting it's a real one. I'd like to know the artist, if anyone recognizes it.

The first of many new toys Will acquired recently that bothered Fyre. This is a Malta Sapper gun. Unfortunately, as a temp power, there were a limited number of shots in it... and they're all gone. WANT MORE! :-D

This is the second. Yes, my friends, Will was packing a quantum rifle. This one had a special modification on it. Once the target Kheldian (in this case, a warshade named "Romulus") was down, you could switch the rifle into a special mode and permanently seperate Kheldian and host. Will... refused to do this.

As he explained to Fyre and Havoc, he doesn't mind killing. He actively seeks out new and better weapons for more efficient killing. But with this quantum gun, he was being asked to hurt someone. Not kill. Not eliminate. Not scare off. Actively cause lasting pain. Torture. Will refused to do so, and after firing the gun a couple times in low-power mode (so as to technically fulfill his mission), he switched back to his automatic. And when Romulus was defeated, Will let the hospital teleporter get him.

Then he destroyed the special modification and tossed the quantum gun aside.
