[Add 'bag full of knives' and 'thinks knives are fun' to the growing list of red flags with this guy.

Accelerator watches passively as the knives get thrown one by one, hitting the beams with a deadly kind of accuracy. He's aware that this kind of thing isn't easy to pull off for a normal person, unless the throw is being augmented with some kind of ability, which is entirely possible. He wouldn't be able to replicate the actions, not with knives.]


People don't consciously think about it this way, but your brain needs to do a hell of a lot of complex calculations to pull that off.

[Good hand-eye coordination, plus being able to measure the distance between yourself and the target, as well as the rotation of the knife itself to make sure the actual blade hits and not just the handle, the concentration needed to process all of this information quickly and accurately, and upper body strength for the throw itself.

He knows he's lacking that last one. That's part of the reason why he's opting for a gun.

Speaking of, he picks up the SIG P220, checking the weight and feel of it.]
