Laser Weapon

A device that uses amplified light to damage, disable, or destroy targets. Laser weapons range from low-power dazzlers (temporarily blinding sensors or personnel) to high-power systems that can cut through steel or ignite fuel at range. The military appeal is obvious: speed-of-light engagement, deep magazines (as long as you have power), precision targeting, and graduated effects. Current operational systems include laser counter-drone weapons (HELIOS, Iron Beam) and research continues toward aircraft and vehicle-mounted lasers capable of intercepting rockets and missiles. Man-portable lethal lasers remain challenging due to power and thermal management, but the technology progresses steadily. The laser weapon is the most mature directed-energy technology, already operational in limited contexts.

Laser Weapon "The Navy tested its laser weapon against a drone—seconds of engagement, seconds of power draw, and the drone fell out of the sky. No missile cost, no launch signature, just a beam and a kill. That's the laser weapon promise: infinite magazines, instant engagement, and a price per shot measured in electricity, not millions."

Laser Igniter Weapon

The broad category encompassing any armament whose primary mechanism is to cause destruction via laser-induced ignition. This includes pistols, rifles, cannons, and even orbital systems designed to start forest fires, trigger volcanic vents, or ignite a planet's atmosphere in the most extreme theoretical warfare. It's a class of weapon that treats the enemy's world itself as the ammunition.

Example: "The orbital defense grid wasn't loaded with kinetics; it was armed with laser igniter weapons. An invading fleet wouldn't be pierced; it would be set on fire. The strategy was to turn the local space around the planet into a kiln, using the enemy's own fuel, oxygen scrubbers, and hull paints as the kindling."

Cheeks 

An Irish phrase meaning shit, derived from ass
(Not to be confused with the literal description of one's buttocks)

"Did you hear the song Aylek$ dropped?"
"Hardly. Her music is absolute cheeks."

"My boyfriend say LaFlame is cheeks."
"Tell your boyfriend I said it's his mixtape that's cheeks."

Breadhead 

Someone who is addicted to obtaining money and building wealth. A money addict and fanatic. Breadheads often work more than one full-time job, and some even participate in illicit activities to "obtain the bread".

A breadhead is like a crackhead, but for money instead of crack.
