deep question here

concept: you have a superpower if you didn't already have one. some of you guys do, some of you don't, whatever. you have a new one. who cares about the logistics

it's any power you want. what is that power what's it do

the trick is that it has one drawback so i guess make that up too

example: i would command a hoard of snakes to do my bidding
drawback: i can no longer chew food i must swallow my food whole

Maybe I just had a good teacher! :P

Anyway, my wishes are kind of dumb, so. That's why I'd rather just grant other people's.

[teaserving]

ok but you gotta do more faces than just that one

yeah? you should tell me. i'm good at telling people they're dumb

[doreimi]

What makes you think I can't? :D

Well, wishes are usually something really selfish, right? So I'd probably wish for something like having a talent that made me world-famous. The kind that when you go walking down the street, everybody recognizes you. Being on the cover of magazines. That kind of famous.

[teaserving]

oh shit she's adapted i made her too powerful :O

well, is that something you'd actually wish for though?
yeah, wishes are inherently selfish. like, i'm not above that. but you also don't have to tell me.

[doreimi]

Ha-ha! Mostly I just try a bunch of letters until I find one that looks like a mouth. :[

Mmm. That IS a wish I'd make for real, I think. But the real wish isn't actually about being famous.

[teaserving]

anything is a mouth if you try hard enough ;T

what if i wished that you would tell me would you tell me then

[he doesn't mean it, but also he can't help but tease her a little]

[doreimi]

Ooo, a winking face! Nyan nyan! ;3

You're such a cheater, you know. Okay, fine. The wish is, I wish there was something special about me. But if I say it like that, it sounds like I'm being really down on myself! But really it's more like, I never got the chance to be really good at anything, or find the thing that makes me special.

So it's kind of a two-part wish. I wish I had a talent or skill or something that made me really special! And then the second part is just, wanting people to be able to see me. I'd wish to make sure I wouldn't be overlooked by people.

[teaserving]

oh shit it's a cat :V

hey
look i don't know if it means much, but i think it takes a certain kind of resolve to tell yourself that you aren't satisfied with how things turned out
that you'd stay and make sure things got better for other people
i didn't even have that, so.

anyway. you don't piss me off. so i think that's pretty good.
but i get what you're saying

you got time to figure all that out now though so
you should find that
okay?

[doreimi]

Is that one a duck? Haha, the cat might catch him!

Mmm. I think it's a lot easier to be strong for other people than it is to be that determined just for yourself. Isn't there someone that you'd do anything for — that where you might give up on yourself, you'd never give up if they were counting on you?

I've been thinking a lot about what I want to do. I don't really know for sure, so I think the only thing to do is just try a lot of things and see what sticks!

[teaserving]

not if he has friends :V :V :V

there's at least one guy, sure.

[but he's not going there, so.]

i think you'll find something.
so
don't give up on yourself.

[doreimi]

Uh-oh! Four ducks against one cat, those aren't very good odds...

You're pretty interested in it, so why don't you help me think of things to try, Mister Optimist?

[teaserving]

yeah what now cat

because all of my hobbies are garbage

[doreimi]

I can do garbage hobbies if I want to!

[teaserving]

i mean
i guess?
if you want?

i'm not gonna talk about my hobbies on public!

[doreimi]

Why not? Are they embarrassing hobbies?

[teaserving]

no
i dont give a fuck what other people think of them or of me

but some shit's easier to share in person than talking about them

[doreimi]

I'm gonna try and guess it! I get three guesses, okay??

[teaserving]

all right all right, make your guesses

[doreimi]
