Date: 2008-10-13 06:26 pm (UTC)A) Peter has not one but *two* powers that grant immortality. He might not like pain, but he should never, ever be afraid of danger that he has time to think about. And he can stop time to give himself time to think about it.
B) Peter and Hiro can both teleport, stop time, and travel back and forwards in time at will. Meaning, any problem that *can* be solved through one of these devices has already been solved.
There has to be a reason for those powers to *not work* if they're going to ever be at all interesting - either the powers need to fail, or the problem has to be something you can't stop when you've got just about everything in the Beyonder's arsenal to throw at it.
