Magnet man... I'm afraid Lead isn't magnetic, ser~

EDIT: 
You also don't need to explain why you take control of a character when dealing out punishment. It's merely running the rules of the environment in the RP. I would understand the need to explain if they started complaining about it though. You're the GM, it's within your right as such to do whatever you please with your setting. You could have a giant foot crush the tavern if you wanted, not that it'd bode well with any of us~
