This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Also a laser hitting a shield causes a massive explosion, which could be at the shield or laser gun. Bullets get stopped and a laser would likely kill either user if many kilometers away, or both of closer.

No could be, it's at the shield and source.

I've read a few of the books. I think for narrative balance purposes, a lasegun would need a certain amount of power before it would explode a shield. Like you can't just put a miniaturized lasegun on a hunter seeker... laseguns need to be big.

I thought it had a chance to be either or both. Idk.
