"No." Peter said instantly, as he shook his head.
"Not unless you're behind solid fire-proof glass or something."

[The Truth]

(Alex): "I still don't see why we can't cut the fuse off. I mean, sure it'll grow back, but we can keep cutting it."

(Marcus): "I still don't know why someone would think it would be a good idea to put a fuse on a nuclear bomb."

"Good question." Peter said to Marcus with a nod.

[The Truth]

(Nuke): "You've gotta remember, the guy that designed me died when he got a hammer stuck in his nose. He wasn't all that smart."

"I... See... I didn't know that." Peter said, as a bead of sweat ran down the back of his head.

[The Truth]

*Nuke sighs*

"In a way, that whole project was a mistake from the start. But on the other hand, if they'd never done it, I would exist."

*Alex mumbles something about loving Nuke, but she doesn't hear*

Peter nodded.
"Maybe a better idea would've been just to give you the potential to change your arm or something into different weapons, instead of having to sacrifice yourself to use your special powers." Peter said with a shrug.

[The Truth]

"He took 'living weapon' literally. I have a friend in the American Empire that's a living humanoid machine gun."

[Magical Girl Mimi]

-==IC: Peter==-

"That doesn't sound too bad though... Does he have a machine-gun arm, or rapidly spit bullets?" Peter asked, as he wasn't sure why that was a bad thing.

OOC: =P

[The Truth]

"First off, it's a she. The designer couldn't get a date, so he settled for making all the weapons female, not that he had a chance with any of us either. Second, it's more like she has four machine guns attached to her body."

OOC: Nuke and the other living weapons are example of the following trope: http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/MoeAnthropomorphism .

"Ah, I see, my bad." Peter said about the correction, and nodded about the machine guns thing.
"Is the fact that she has four machine guns good or bad, though?" Peter asked, as he wasn't sure why Nuke was making that sound like a bad thing.

[The Truth]

"It's not good or bad. I was just pointing out that the designer took 'living weapon' extremely literally."

(Alex): "Your hot chocolate will get cold."

[Magical Girl Mimi]

"I see..." Peter said, and thought for a moment.
"How many of the living weapons are there?"

[The Truth]

"Three hundred and sixty four."

[Magical Girl Mimi]

Peter blinked, with a raised eyebrow.
"What'd the guy do, make one for each day of the year? and what'd he do, kick the bucket on the last day?"

OOC: =P

[The Truth]

OOC: You know what's really ridiculous? Not once while making that post did I think of the 365-day year.

IC: "Nah. He just ran out of funding when people started wondering if it was 'OK' to make thinking, feeling weapons that looked like cute girls."

[Magical Girl Mimi]

OOC: xD

-==IC: Peter==-

"That's true, I guess that would be a factor." Peter said with a shrug.
"How many of the living weapons are still around, and not affiliated with anyone?" Peter asked, as he was honestly curious about that.

[The Truth]

"I dunno...there's at least thirty still here in Japan, and another thirty in the American Empire...of course, that was before I was put in stasis, so no telling if they're still around...(Of course, we're designed to never age, but we can still die.)"

[Magical Girl Mimi]

-==IC: Peter==-

"What types of weapons were still here when you went into stasis? And do you know of their locations?" Peter asked, as he was honestly curious now.

[The Truth]

"Um...we had five drone planes, me, and the rest were different types of guns. Most of them are probably in stasis or in a lab somewhere, since the official position is that we do not exist and never did exist."
