I can see it now: just get the enemy to breathe in a cloud of nanobots, or have the bots enter their body through an open cut that they make, and the enemy’s body is yours: no violence needed.

We live in a terrifying time because there’s just no way to dodge this sort of stuff unless you have the EMP tech, since a Hazmat suit is unsustainable to don long-term.

EDIT: No, I didn’t watch anything! I’ve been reading about how nanobots are currently being used in the medical field to clear plaque from arteries, so I have simply been chugging with that train of thought in a more nefarious direction…

    Thanks, that’s fine. I don’t think it’ll be a problem at all, since I read the entire plot summary to The Substance and was still floored upon watching it (though apparently some of the wording in the article was confusing so I didn’t even understand the whole plot lol).
