No worries at all! I'm still very happy to play with this if you want to start something, and Marcos is very keen to have his laser hands be of some service.

He can absolutely do most of these AND... okay so it's more likely that he'd catch the books on fire if he tried it on records, but fire is an option. Although he can be very precise! Just look at this shamefully dark screencap of the baby rattle he made out of metal. Regular artist with lasers, this guy.

I'm all for him suggesting all of the above and then having Marcos go, "We could do that. Or..." and have a more sensible idea before everything goes to shit and they have to improvise anyway. He's a team player though! He'll work with him.

AND yes lmsf, it occurs to me that his backstory would be right up his alley. Most mutants could use a good lawyer tbh.
