“Oh, it’s you. Come over here. I’ll show
you your gadgets for your new mission. Now pay attention,
00-something-or-other. I’ll say this only once. And don’t touch that. It’s my
lunch!”
NOTE: You want to use a gadget not on
this list, or one you made up yourself? Tell
M what you’re planning and I’ll most likely approve it. This is just a
precaution to prevent power playing through the use of gadgets.
