Question for everyone, especially Cogs -- (and sorry for the wordiness!) --<br/><br/>It seems to me that the current scene is one where J.D.'s speed powers have a lot of obvious uses, so I'm wondering how to approach it.  On one hand, we wouldn't want him to overcome foes so easily that the rest of the team has nothing to do.  On the other hand, it violates basic story logic for him to hold back from using his powers as much as possible to help whenever he can.<br/><br/>As long as the team was in the jungle, it made sense for him to not do very much, because the terrain would be even more treacherous to cross at high speed.  Now, however, he's facing a bunch of ordinary soldiers who have no logical reason to anticipate his attack, so he should be able to wreak serious havoc.  Unless, of course, the gaming mechanics prevent that from happening somehow, or unless you guys want me to just artificially hold him back, but I'd prefer to come up with a logical reason for that.<br/><br/>For example, in the present scene, he should be able to just run up to any armed soldiers and disarm them before they can prevent it, right?  Or, alternatively, disable them all with a series of pokes to their eyes, box all their ears, kick their legs out from under them, or go for the ever-reliable punch to the crotch?  Similarly, disabling a vehicle should be a snap with just a little thought:  not only the tire-slashing and battery-removal Athena mentioned, but smashing the windows with rocks, disabling the drivers with similar physical attacks to the ones above, pouring sand into the gas tanks, or most obviously, just opening the door and taking the keys before anyone can stop him.<br/><br/>It seems to me that he should at least try to do some or all of these things, and if the team has trained together, Athena should order him to try those things, or at least mention a logical reason why he shouldn't.<br/><br/>As you can tell, I'm normally a stickler for plot logic; I consider it a prerequisite for any well-crafted story.  Unfortunately, it may be necessary to artificially ignore the logical things that J.D. ought to do with his powers, simply because it makes it too difficult to come up with credible obstacles that allow all the team members to shine.  I don't know, what do you guys think?  Any opinions would be welcome.
