If I were a mutant, what would my mutant powers be? Suggest them! Then post this in your own journal and see whether people think you would be a Wolverine or a washout!

From how little we've hung out, my guess is you'd have an encyclopedic power, except connected to teh intarweb of the COSMOS, and ANYTHING anyone would wonder, you'd be able to roll your eyes back in your head, access the Cosmic 'net, and spit out any number of different informed perspectives from various intelligent species and what you think of them. Like a loremaster, you'd be invaluable to any superhero mutant team because you could tell them how to beat their enemies as well as the best recipes for dinner and the theology of any religion, the technology of any age. Better than Data, better than Google, and you'd also be able to speak any language of any peoples that ever stored information because you'd HAVE to be able to, ion order to understand their information!

I'd take you on any Call of Cthulu quest! We'd beat those bastards!

Oooh. Score.

I'm utterly flattered.

That's really astoundingly close to my answer to "What Superpower Would You Choose?"

Dirtnap's.

The power to swallow people whole. You'd be called The Snark.

Mr. McGee, don't make me hungry.

You wouldn't like me when I'm hungry.

o all appearances a mild-mannered oceanogapher, he lives on his yacht, the Cutty Snark, cruising the Pacific coast and offering assistance to conservation and ecology-minded research organizations everywhere. The source of his vast fortune is obscure. He loves, and is beloved of, graduate students everywhere for his consideration and generosity. He is the friend of all sea creatures except seals; he has been heard to state that they exist only to lounge around on rocks and piers in harbors, crapping all over everything and stinking.

But at the new moon, when the tide runs high and the mists rise from the sea, comes STORMDANCER the WINDLORD! Powered by the Olympian Outrage of the Gods, he rises in his wrath on wings of steel, to strike down evil, hypocrisy, and above all else STUPIDITY, with the gifts of the Lightning of Retired Zeus, the Storm Fury of the Dreaded Fnord, and the Sarcastic Tongue of Death of a Thousand Cuts!

By the way, I found it hard to choose between a sailboat named Cutty Snark and an airship named Grauf Zeppelin. Maybe he has one of each.

The ability to summon cakes, pies, and other goodies, and to hurl them with uncanny accuracy toward an opposing party's mouth, said cakes and pies able to fill an opponent until their fancy outfits burst at the seams, turning them into veritable cake-filled balloons.

I'm sensing a theme here.

[jdarkwulf.livejournal.com]

It's 'cause we all love ya! :)

[araquan.livejournal.com]

Indeed. Though it means all my ideas to suggest are already taken. };>

You would be FinFangFoom's long-lost (and saner) orichalum-scaled relative. Plus, I can envision you having the power to increase your mass and the mass of others exponentially by thought alone.
