"Wait - have it gone? You mean I can do that?" That's an interesting thought. And a tempting one. But then again, it would really be just Daniel's luck if the fate of the world happens to come down on the right-sized paperclip except, whoops, he can't make those anymore.

As for "severely hazardous" powers, well. Daniel could make a few cautious guesses, but he's not sure he wants to know the particulars. Which is good, seeing as Seth's expressed no desire to talk about them either.
