If you could have one super power...

I was so chuffed to be able to make that reference there.

Back on topic, I don't think I could handle the truth (power). I'd be worried that whatever I'd hear wouldn't be to my liking. I'd much rather assume everything's fine than to hear the potentially hurtful truth.

Shapeshifting for me, I could fly by becoming a bird/insect plus I've got a cool power on top of that.

What would the limitations be, and how long would you have to hold that shape for? Also would you have to remain the same size?

Well, it was nice while it lasted! Bye forum..




I just thought, if I was ant sized it would take so long to get from place to place and do the daily things that we all take for granted such as eating, cleaning and using the bathroom.

Permanently and anything living is what I'd say, but maybe that's just me being greedy I think that's the normal shape shifter model though.

To be fair, if you were ant sized you could more or less just poop anywhere...

The invisbility only works when I'm flying though!

Oooh, stopping time would be good! Any sort of time one; has anyone else seen About Time?

I've not, but I've seen Bernard's Watch.  I know all about this kind of stuff.

Bah! I was beaten to the Baenard's watch reference.

Being rich isn't a super power.

This is a tough one and could probably change based on how I'm feeling at any given time, so right now? I'd have to say lightning speed so I could react to any situation & you could still mess with people without them knowing.

The power to kill a yak from 200 yards away.. with mind bullets!

I'd go for super strength I think so I can have the super jump thing that the Hulk and Jessica Jones have

That's telekinesis, Kyle.

I'm struggling to think on anything original! The best answer I can think of is "so I am slightly better at my job". I'm bad at this.

In addition to the ones I already possess, and hold as the Asgardian who bears Mjolnir? I should very much enjoy being able to communicate with animals. Not as equals, you understand, but to be better able to understand their plights. The ecosystem of Earth is very finely balanced - a balance that humans are tipping out of kilter.

You are pretty bad at this, yes Maybe the ability to stop time would be a good one for you? You could get all that work done

I do enjoy that you only went with "slightly" better too.

Having the super heals would be pretty great.

You'd have boundless stamina, never get ill, age super slowly... It'd probably be pretty easy to fit in with the rest of society too, provided you don't perform ridiculous antics in front of people.

Would people not notice that you weren't getting ill or that you were aging very slowly over the years though?

I don't think the illness thing would get you spotted, everyone knows someone who almost never gets ill.

The aging thing yes but there are people in their 30s who look like they're 20, you'd have a decade to play with if you started staying in one place. Also if one traveled around a lot then no one would ever really notice, not until you're being ID'd as age 80 or so while you look far younger, but at that point you would probably have learnt how to forge an identity.

The main downside is that if you really wanted to keep the power a secret the only long-term relationships you could form would be on forums and such...

Someone in our society already has that power.

You're my new favourite member

Actually, on second thought, I'd rather be able to send my present conciousness back in time to an earlier version of me. Get a chance to correct all my lamentations of youth, and perhaps also profit a wee bit in the process.

But you would probably destroy the innocence of youth depending how far you go back
