"I knew it was a bad idea, but I didn't think it was THIS bad!"

Hello brain, this is your logic centre speaking.

Just as a friendly suggestion, if you start discussing setting fire to things around your characters (even if they are giant robots), it's probably got to the point where your story has abandoned all pretence of being sane and has wandered off down some very strange avenues.

Particularly when those burning things are being used as restraints. And involve packing peanuts. ¬_¬

To shamelessly plagiarise [livejournal.com profile] aegis_fox, "my Primus, that's the worst thing I can think of to do. But since I've thought of it..."

"YES! It's working!

...

...crap. I'm on fire."

Ahh, but the smallness of polystyrene packing peanuts means "all the easier to jam you full of them, my dear".

Hm ... In that case you need a human to comment on which peanuts are and aren't right for eating. ;)
