And now I'm...
Aug. 2nd, 2009 10:03 pmDoing math.
And figuring out crossbow bolt speed. (I'm going to use 200 ft/sec, just because that's a nice round number that I might be able to actually work with.)
And seeing just how fast Ben would have to move in order to... do what he needs to do.
...this is gonna be ugly, y'all.
Seriously, even if he's a werewolf, I'm not sure he can move seventeen and a half feet in a tenth of a second. Especially in human form, because he won't have time to Change. This has to be instantaneous. And if he fails, it will destroy him utterly.
I'm just not sure how he actually succeeds. I may have to mess around with the dimensions of the room so he doesn't have to move as far as the crossbow bolt. And this requires more math than I am, possibly, capable of. *cries*
I haven't scribbled a single word today. It's all been figuring out logistics and such. And while this may aid my wordcount in the long run, I'm not sure it helps me right now, y'know? I'm not sure I even hit my weekly goal this week. I think I did, but I fell down on the daily goal a lot. And vacation isn't an excuse. Mostly it was just me, sitting there blubbering my lips and going "I have no idea what's NEXT. GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH."
