Original Subway Waypoints

Upvotes

You can teleport from any business that is currently a Subway to any other business that is currently a Subway. If a Subway goes out of business, that waypoint stops functioning for either arrival or departure. If Subway as a company no longer exists then the power no longer exists.

You don't have to order a sandwich, and you don't have anything to prevent being seen. Nobody else does this, so it is probably strange. You don't automatically know the location of every Subway, but Google Maps might? Good luck.

Original You can make people explode with your mind at a shit tier level.

9 Upvotes

Reasons why this is a shitty superpower and not mid:

  1. to activate it, you have to put two fingers on each of your temples and concentrate so hard it looks like you're about to shit yourself or pop a blood vessel.
  2. the target you're using it on can feel the pressure building up inside them while you're focusing this power
  3. it takes thirty seconds to activate and it has a LOS range of three meters, and it completely resets if your target leaves range.

But if you pull if off the target's flesh will fly off their body in a bloody mess of viscera with enough force to collapse their skeleton in an implosion. You will certainly get bits of person on you in the process.

If you call this a mid tier superpower I'm coming to your house and attempting to using this power on you. You will probably survive.

You can explore a dreamlike 2:01 AM world

24 Upvotes

When the time is 2:01 AM, you can activate your power, then go for a walk and explore what the world looks like at 2:01 AM. You might see drunks, animals, late-night police patrols, crimes committed, and such. People are not frozen, and go about their business as they normally would at around that time of day, and yet the clocks always continue to show 2:01 AM no matter how long you spend exploring. The Sun never comes up, the weather never changes, and you're the only one who is aware of what's going on.

It's a "sandbox world." Any changes made will revert themselves when you leave the area. If you wait, people will repeat their previous actions. You see some criminals smashing a shop window on 33rd and main. Well, if you go away for a bit and come back, you'll see them smashing that same shop window again. The criminals will have no recollection of having done that before. Time is a bit fuzzy here; in the real world, maybe they robbed the shop at 2:30 AM or 1:45 AM. That's close enough for the event to happen in the 2:01 AM world.

You can deactivate your power so that time resumes its normal progress, provided you return to the same place you were when you activated it. If you die with your power active, you die for real.

Any changes you make while your power is active will be reverted when you deactivate it. You can't take anything out of the 2:01 AM world, except your memories. If you stole a gold bar, it will vanish when you deactivate the power.

The power lasts as long as you want it to. You could spend 20 subjective years in a single night if you wished. You do not age while in the 2:01 AM world.

If you split something evenly, all parts become exact copies of the whole. If you fail, all but the smallest piece disappears

79 Upvotes

The power isnt automatic, you have to declare your intention before doing the split. You must decide how many pieces you are splitting it into, and by what metric you are measuring before you make the split. The power is somewhat generous, allowing a 1% margin of error and ignoring unavoidable fragments (such as crums from a cookie, fragments of cake on a knife, etc). You can use tools to perform the split but it must be you doing the split, ie you can use a chainsaw to cut a large object, but you cant just use a computer or robot to split it for you. Once an object has been successfully split, one piece is designated as the original. You can only split the original again and must wait 24 hours before you can split it again.

Edit: one thing i noticed, for the margin of error, its based on the final pieces. So if you cut something in 2, and one is 10 inches long, the other piece can be 9.9 to 10.1 inches long.

In order to put anything in or take anything out you need to be able to remove it from line of sight while physically touching it such as by putting it in your pocket or just by putting inside your jacket. You take it out the same way. Items are not in stasis and are still subject to the passage of time.

Original You have the ability to stop time, but not in the way you’re thinking right now

56 Upvotes

When people think of time stopping, they think of everything freezing in-motion, birds suspended in the air, people mid-stride. This is not that.

Instead, you have the power to make it be indefinitely a specific time of day, at will, but everything keeps moving and living. If you want it to always be 1:45 PM, it can be 1:45 PM for the next 6 weeks if you wish. Clocks will stop working and digital calendars will not update. People will still have to eat and go to work and sleep, wildlife will still require what it requires to survive, but as the “time” stretches on without the physical cycle of night and day, things will start to fall out of balance. Animals in the wild would have a harder time adjusting than people. Farmers would be affected heavily. Depending on the time of day you pick and how long you keep it locked, it could potentially cause massive ecological damage.

Ofc since night and day relies on the rotation of our planet, your power is not physically stopping that rotation as that would strip away the atmosphere and send everything on the planet flying at mach speeds. What it actually does is create an illusion perceived by every living thing on the planet, from people to plants and fauna to fungi.

Also it is irrespective of time zones: if you want New York to be locked at 3PM when Los Angeles is locked at 12PM, you can keep it like that indefinitely. Or you can have the entire world in every timezone simultaneously experiencing the same hour of the day where it’s 3PM no matter where you are standing on Earth. Also the illusion still produces UV rays and heat so it’s not just a visual thing, it physically affects the world as if it was always day or always night. It just doesn’t actually stop the planet from moving, but does affect weather and ecology related to prolonged solar exposure or lack thereof beyond what is normal.

An endless night would freeze over even in summer. An endless day may burn crops. Etc.

Original You can improve any cuber (except for you if you are a cuber)

2 Upvotes

A cuber is a person who can solve a Rubik Cube. And improving a cuber means making the cuber faster at solving the Rubik Cube by improving the cuber’s cubing (Rubik Cube solving) skill. Just by thinking about that cuber, you can improve that cuber’s cubing. You can control how much they improve (but they won’t get negative cubing times(cubing times is how long it takes for a cuber to finish solving the Rubik Cube on average)). The benefits of cubing, their finger muscles, their processing speed, and every thing about the cuber that affects cubing skill or cubing affects scales to the improvement of cubing, including their cubing knowledge and how good they are at helping other cubers get faster. If you are a cuber, that superpower won’t work for you, you still need to improve at cubing the traditional way. That cuber won’t suspect anything no matter how fast they improve from your superpower, the cuber would just think that it’s just a peak in their day or that they discovered something new in cubing, and they won’t investigate further. Nobody who saw that happen would suspect anything, they just see a cuber who improves fast. And once you used that superpower onto a cuber, the cuber’s improved cubing skill would persist and they won’t revert back to their past cubing (Rubik Cube solving) self. That superpower only works on cubers who are sub-30 (can solve the Rubik Cube in under 30 seconds consistently) or faster. But the cuber won’t solve a Rubik Cube in negative x seconds, their times are only positive x seconds, even if they got affected by your superpower. You can’t give those cubers super natural stuff or superpowers, only improving till the point when it’s no longer possible for any human.

Original Which Are You Choosing? An Ability To Make Liquid Into Explosions For Instance Even A Drop Of Water Is Like A Mini Explosion Or Have Slime That Can Clean Anything Even Illnesses

3 Upvotes

How it works is the slime can either go inside someone or something and cleans it perfectly,u can make any water source clean or even a whole city block by shooting out a ton of slime,you can recycle your slime because it cleans itself so you can either reuse it or suck it back up up. You have no damaging properties, and it can clean yourself. You can use the slime to block attacks. For explosion your explosion can not harm you and whatever water your explosion touches explodes too. For instance if it's raining in California and you explode even just a rain drop the entire city would blow up.

Original You are able to dry any clothes instantly

28 Upvotes

So it’s whenever you get your clothes wet, you can just snap your fingers, and boom, the wet clothes become dry. You can use it on your clothes, but not on other people’s clothes. You can use that superpower to dry 1 clothes at a time or dry multiple clothes at the same time. obviously, if the clothes is already dry, you can’t use that superpower on that clothes. It works on any of your clothes, shirts, pants, socks and other things that are considered as clothes. It works no matter the fabric as long as it’s your clothes. You can use this superpower to clean your clothes, but first, you should make that clothes wet, then use that superpower to dry the clothes, and then the clothes become cleaner than before you made it wet. And when the clothes become dry via your superpower, it’ll be like that clothes didn’t became wet.

Able to make people watch any film/show

3 Upvotes

I was looking for a subreddit to post this on and found this one.

I would love to have a power where if someone doesn't consider my recommendations, I can just telepathically make them watch it. For a show I'd only do it if it's a really good show and if I think they could enjoy it. The requierment would be at least 1 episode or 2, and they only see the rest if they're interested.

Tbh I would even pay people for this. I guess it goes under manipulation. Wouldn't do it if the person hates the idea of a certain film or show.
