sorry, I meant on a monowire :P
They're not exactly going to sell monowire in unattached lengths, are they? How would you pick it up?

They do, actually. It is used as a security feature in many places. And you need special gloves to pick it up without slicing your hands.

What I should have said is that it's going to come spooled or in some other neat, contained measure. You aren't going to buy it direct from the seller in tangled heaps or in free floating random lengths. That would be stupid.

Of course. But you can buy it in coils of a certain length, and then cut it as needed to stretch across an alleyway, for instance. Personally, I prefer to put it at mid-shin height. Slices the legs so they can't run, and leaves them alive, so you can question them later if you need to.

PLEASE!!!

that is no where near as entertaining as "Go-gang head basketball".... where you see if you can get the detached head to bounce into a pothole after the go-ganger runs into the mono wire stretched across the highway at 80KpH...   ;D

Yes, but I prefer more practical methods. You can't get as much information out of a corpse. And if someone's chasing me, I'd like them to be alive long enough for me to very slowly and carefully get all the information I can out of them.

No, no, no. You clearly don't know how much fun a proper interrogation session can be. Adding in some psychological torture while you're at it can really improve results. Plus, the 'cleaners' prefer to take the 'pigs' while they're still warm. Still Shedim about, afterall.

Biggest dick thing you can ever do? String a piece of it across an alley while your buddy is being chased by go-gangers. He knows to duck, they don't.

Plop.
Even worse, string it at KNEE HEIGHT for, say, your average Ork.
