I have to share my latest dream, while I still remember it.
In the dream, I was on a quest, and had gathered a group of people to be part of it.
Once the group was assembled, I told them that one of them, a young woman, had a connection to me and to what was going to happen
I told them, "I'm the fuse. She's the bomb."
I didn't seem upset about this. In fact I told the girl, "Come on, lets go boom"
Then I told them we had to get to a certain location up on top of a hill on the outskirts of the city, and we began to travel.
Along the way, we picked up our last person, a young trans girl, and took her to a safehouse halfway to. our destination.
I told the owner of the house I envied the girl, getting to grow up as herself, whereas I wasn't even the main player in our quest, the "bomb" girl was.
I said, "I'm just the fuse. And that's all I'm going to be."
then I woke up.

And that's all I'm going to be...
Without you
- The heroes would not be where they need to be.
- The young trans girl would not be safe.
- The young woman could not accomplish her destiny.
You where one of the most important in that story.!

The Bomb
... is just a dud without the fuse. But also, a bomb without a fuse is the safest to be around.

SciFi Book
I just recalled the opening to a science fiction book I read a long time ago. Someone, a spy, snuck in to access military (or other) secrets. But they called him the bomb. His mission was, perhaps, 90% complete, or he was escaping when he was caught. Apparently, he was a combination robot and literal bomb.
Calling him a bomb was literal.
