Phasing in and out of pretty much everything. You could get some confidential int about the government or others stuff and send it to the media etc.

Yeah, because THAT worked out so f*cking great for Snowden 😆

Sheeple really don't care these days...

Yeah, but she also didn't know what her powers were. Here, we're outright told what to expect.

The Colossus thing is worry, but afaik not really the norm for her (Just something the writer put in as an excuse to have "lol teen romance sexcapades"😉

Hey, if you're willing to take the gamble, by all means. I'd be too scared to though.

Just don't have sex with Colossus...I'm not sure what the issue is here.

accidentally stabbing yourself repeatedly, outliving all of your friends and family, and dying a slow death as an old man seems real nice.

just because you have a healing factor doesn't mean that getting shot or hit by a car doesn't hurt.

Most people go through life without being shot or hit by cars though. Having a healing factor doesn't mean you have to go fight street gangs everyday. You could honestly just live your normal life, but with all the added perks of healing fast.

The initial experience would probably be quite painful, though. Healing factor forcing the body to get into the best shape, getting rid of all the imperfections, diseases and scars, etc. Ouch.

You had your appendix removed? Worry no longer, it's growing back!!! Forgot to mention, it'll hurt as f*cking f*ck. And that's just an example.

I have to imagine you'd get desensitized over time. Or would you not?

His senses as well. How would anyone master something like that without training from someone with similar problems and in our world, that doesn't exist.

You'd have to spend a fortune on haircuts and razors.

But seriously, I'm still deciding on a power. I just didn't like the idea that a healing factor means you're suddenly being shot at 24/7. I think the Mystique pick is a decent pick. It's easy to stay hidden.

Beyond the healing factor's pain stuff, I always wondered, in the off chance you do get suffer some serious injury....then heal right in front of everyone, what happens then? Paramedics pull you from some crazy car wreck, and your wounds just disappear. Or I become a pro athlete, the temptation is too much for me, and heal a broken arm on national tv. Will people just chalk it up to a modern miracle, or will I be under some serious scrutiny? Slim chances I know, but just some stuff I was thinking over.

And eventually the government will notice there is some 250 year old man walking around still looking sexy as hell.

Fortunately, I have no imperfections and all my organs are still here.

No imperfections that you know about, you mean. Relatively speaking, you're still an average Joe... a healing factor of Wolverine's calibre would find tons of things to fix.

Yes, as other KMCers said in other threads, there's a great chance of getting captured and experimented on... for long years or even forever.

That's why I'd start killing folks as soon as possible biscuits Better to strike first.

If so, and your powers are at full power, pick Kitty

And accidentally phase the entire Earth, or at least, a large chunk of it.

I like the way you think...

From what I understand, phasing dense materials taxes her.

Imagine if all that power was devoted to phasing something as light as......say, the atmosphere. You'd be able to phase a huge area.

The resulting vacuum would pop everyone in it's 'blast radius' like a spot.

If you have a HF you wouldn't need to have your apex removed. It would heal and work just fine. And pretty much the rest of what ou said is kinda crap put into Little Jimmy stories just to add needles melodrama to make Little Jimmy "More Interesting" because fans nowadays can't CARE about someone unless their lives are bigger steaming piles of shit then theirs are.

And boy is Little Jimmie's life a BIG PILE O STEAMING SHIT!

You have been taken away, experimented on and dumbed back into your apartment/home. You have an envelope right beside you with your name on it. You open it up and discover that you were given new powers and abilities and it gives you a brief description of what you can do. Which power would you choose? You have not received a lot on how to use your new abilities. This is something that has been thrown on you. You also have to remember the other consequences that comes along with living in today's time with these type of abilities. Your powers are active as soon as your done reading the envelope.

Your choices are...

Colossus
Nightcrawler
Wolverine
Beast Boy
Mystique
Gambit
Kitty Pride
Cyclops (you receive a pair of visors)

Wolverine's powers would be pretty fun to have, as far as Earth bound heroes go. It'd be pretty easy to monetize that shit now a days.

Beast Boy. 👆
