Weapons
Confiscated items deemed to begin warfare
Everything is a weapon. It can become a sword. A gun. An electric force field. A special vapor shield that protects from bad guys. Everyday items morph into weapons before our eyes, alongside the plastic and styrofoam versions. In our home, we are constantly looking for tape or the swiffer--because we have either hid them-or they are out of sight and out of reach. If the boy with super powers finds them, they become weapons of destruction to fend off evil-doers. Unfortunately, family members and innocent bystanders also pay the price, so we keep them under tight lock and key. Don't look too closely at our baseboards or steps...they haven't been vacuummed in a long time--because we can't find the damn attachment.

However, it is usually an accessory for a plastic gun, a pirate outfit, or for handcuffing criminals. That tape measure will scare anyone into submission.
