Family Ties Question and Answer Round 1!

[hellzabeth]

Family Ties has officially hit 40 chapters! *streamers and party poppers*

In celebration of this momentous occasion (read as: the proof that I truly have no life and don't particularly care) and also because this whole story is far too big for me, the author, to handle, I am standing myself voluntarily in front of the firing squad. By which I mean, you are all allowed to let rip and ask any questions you want!

To make this more fun, you can even ask questions of certain characters, such as "Hey Wales, what was the poker incident of 1972?" or "Hey North Korea, why are you such a crazy psycho and who's bright idea was it to give you nukes?" or "Russia, when the hell are you actually going to tell us what you're planning?"

Or you have the regular flavor of "Hey Pidge, were you aware of [insert treaty name here which invalidates a point in the story] or are you just purposefully ignoring it?" or "Oi you, the world-destroying psycho, what the fuck compelled you to do that to Scotland?" or "What are you smoking and where can I get some?"

Fire away, and most importantly, have fun!

Good luck with that, I haven't managed to regain mine yet.

*nod* Oh right, that makes sense... a Nagasaki-scale bomb wouldn't be even nearly strong enough to be felt so far. I think. Uh, I really have no idea about these things, I just read articles and gape at them in horror. Just kind of might have hoped America would have retained at least enough sense not to use anything even BIGGER than the A-bomb but then again, it's AMERICA. If we gotta use it, let's at least make it a big bang and scare them up good... sounds about his thought process.

I think their use is illegal. I'm pretty sure. Because I think I've seen at least two different sources say that the use of nuclear weapons in general is illegal and considered a crime against humanity or something like that (except, apparently, for depleted uranium weapons because they, apparently, weren't "meant" to be nuclear weapons, they just happen to me made of dangerous material that's impossible to purify or clean away, and because apparently it's impossible to prove that a sudden rise of cancer, infertility and birth defect rates in the Middle East could have anything to do with loads of unprotected nuclear waste being transported there as weapons and being blown up in the air as explosives or left lying around)... But then again if they are already using the H-bomb... okay never mind, having N-Bombs outlawed sounds good and I'm not going to argue lest you actually make them use them.
