Laurence (anythingexcept) | 5 comments I am torn between the ideas of what would be most fun and what would be most useful.

Papaphilly | 5042 comments I think the most fun would be flying. The most useful for me would be invisibility.

Scout (goodreadscomscout) | 8071 comments We think alike on this one, Papa.

Nik Krasno | 19850 comments Telepathy and teleporting must be somewhere in between fun and useful


message 5: by Scout (new)

Scout (goodreadscomscout) | 8071 comments That sounds good, too. I need more than one superpower. I watched Star Trek when I was a teenager and have always thought it would be great to have a transporter. And later, one of those things that would deliver whatever you wanted to eat or drink. Earl Grey hot, please. When's that going to happen? :-)

Replicators is what they were in Star Trek. Possibly, the next step up from 3d printers?

Scout (goodreadscomscout) | 8071 comments Sounds right. I wonder if Picard was charged for all that Earl Grey tea :-)

Scout (goodreadscomscout) | 8071 comments It would be great to have the power to tell when people are lying.

Jonas | 16 comments My superpower would be to manipulate time

J. Gowin | 7977 comments I would want to always be forgotten.

In the comics, heroes have to hide their true identities for fear that their enemies might seek an advantage by attacking the heroes' friends and family. But I could do whatever needed to be done without concern for others because nobody would remember that I was ever there. I could live a completely normal life.

Lizzie | 2057 comments I want what old sci fi books referred to as ESPer powers - the trifecta of telepathy, telekenisis, and teleportation.
