You look down at the white ceramic sabatons hugging your arches and calves, surprised at how well they fit.

Your movements cause tiny little clicks, like dice rolling somewhere far away, as the plates reorient to your motions.

[Discard thought.]

Well, you found that one piece you were after, anyway. Don't forget to enjoy it!

Better late than never, huh?

I guess so.

It is good to be an unstoppable ceramic man.

Remember, this is a highly specialized kinetic re-distributor meant to stop bullets. Wear it, observe its properties. See if there's a weakness in the design.

For the day you have to fight someone covered in the same material.

Remember, the vitreous enamel material acts as a kinetic re-distributor. It's meant to stop bullets. Wear it, observe its properties. See if there's a weakness in the design.

Decked out in future-armour. Like a cop ought to be.

The hardened vitreous enamel, at once sleek and voluptuous, adds a glow to your cheeks and a spring to your step. Just imagine what a full suit of this stuff could do for you!

You really do feel more confident. Invulnerability does that. Even partial invulnerability.

I remember a feeling -- being worried about crossing paths with someone in this armour.

Then you should prepare -- analyse this armour, figure out its vulnerabilities.

This gear could line my pockets with cash. I could probably sell it to some other cops.

Certainly, but you may want to hold on to the armour you have for long enough to properly analyse it, figure out its vulnerabilities.

One down -- two pieces to go. Here I come.

Two? Are you sure you're correct there? There was a helmet too. Three pieces more like. You were ambitious.

This is the long sought after enemy technology. I can't just enjoy it -- I must study it.

The hardened vitreous enamel, at once sleek and light, adds a glow to your cheeks and a spring to your step. Just imagine what a full suit of this stuff could do for you!

You really do feel more confident. Invulnerability does that. Even partial invulnerability.

I will be responsible with this. This is just to protect me from harm, not to show off.

The white ceramic cuirass hugs your torso, shielding your vitals without adding much bulk to your form...

As you fold your fingers into a fist, you realize you could knock anyone out with one punch... the white ceramic gloves wrap around your digits comfortably.

As your head is ensconced in the ceramic helm, you realize --

Well, it's a bit late to think about all this now, isn't it?
