Building things was something Rodney had always enjoyed. It had always been building things from a young age but his 'big break' had been the atomic bomb he had built for his grade six Science Fair exhibit. It had been unworking but he could have easily made it to work. Bombs were easy. Designed to explode and cause destruction, mayhem, chaos and death. Easy but versatile in the triggering mechanism and depended on the effect you wanted it to have.
The tripwire triggered bomb that he was in the process or priming, for instance, was designed to go off when his 'victim' (.. wait, his victim?..) stepped through it. But just in case, he also made sure it could be remote activated in the unlikely event that it failed to blow up. Once set up, it was just a matter of leaning his back against the wall down the safe end of the corridor and waiting. Any moment now. </lj-cut>
