<heh>
By her lights, Mab might owe you a favor for ripping through her flesh with myriad bits of cold iron... :o

The propellant in the case has a surprising small amount of kinetic energy - an actual 9 mm bullet is under a third of an ounce. Even Harry's 44 is about a half ounce.

The rings absorb kinetic energy from normal movement, they just need to ride around in a pocket for long enough. Speedier recharge is the punching bag.

IDEA-- RE:Harry's inlaid spells on his duster...he rewrites them so that the kinetic energy absorbed is then transferred to some magical foci and redirected towards a foe. We've seen him redirect incoming magics (incoming from the left to redirected with the right? Entropy curse and frozen turkey meet blampire) Just thinking on the fly here. Seems there are tons of things Harry could be doing with the kinetic energy stuff--charging up magic bullets, using the incoming kinetic energy absorbed by his duster to regen his electric ca..uh..hmmm)
Thanks for all the chat on this one. Fun stuff!

Rewrite it so the kinetic energy of the bullet travels back along the trajectory to the point of origin? Blowing up a gun or at least shooting it out of an assailants hand?

Pull iron filings out of a body with a rare earth magnet? Would hurt like heck, but she'd heal.

Pull iron filings out of a BRAIN. What you get back may not be the same.

Better hope you can do it before Halloween
