Also: bottle in a shoe! Mirror shell! Little things that make sense for their characters but aren't overtly "oh, I can shoot any firearm known to man with 99.9% accuracy" or "I can reconstruct Il Duomo with one hand tied behind my back." I love.
Ha, yes, this was totally what I was going for. I mean, I love badass Arthur, I wrote fic about badass Arthur, but most of the time I want to read about him as a normal, flawed person.
