Would you rather...

With my health issues, definitely Logan's healing abilities.

It's between Shadowcats phasing ability and Wolverines healing factor. And I feel like Shadowcats phasing ability is much, much, much more versatile and overall easier to live with.

Yeah, Wolverines healing ability gives you a longer life, which is obviously a great and big deal... but you would see plenty of loved ones die. You also couldn't – for example – become a professional fighter and just outheal and outlast everyone, because you would heal immediately and people would see it.
And that would be the biggest issue with the healing ability: others would eventually see it. And then you would get kidnapped by some black market organ traders, who would be cutting out your organs (which would regenerate) and selling those for the rest of your miserable life.

With Shadowcats phasing ability you wouldn't live as long, but no one would ever be able to capture you. And people would in general be scared shitless of you, because you could phase their brains out. So them trying to do you any harm would do them the actual harm.
And the phasing would be the easiest way to become a force for good. Just offer your service to the CIA or something. Infiltrate terrorist groups and steal important information. Assassinate certain people without any effort. Make that money, honey.

I'd wear noseplugs and earplugs. Maybe just get ten thousand songs and an mp3 player; not like I'd need worry about traffick anymore.

And imagine the scams. Fake a back injury after jumping in front of a limo.

Keep scamming until you make enough money to buy an island away from people.


You'd need to prove your injuries though, which would require medical professionals who see your back is totally fine.

Then you're left trying to explain how you have no injuries after a limo hits you.

And for Shadowcat's powers, I feel like it's either A. Use it sparingly so you don't get discovered, and may as well have picked something else...or go wild with it but lead a life of solitude. Your face would quickly get plastered on every tv screen as the "Human Ghost." How would you interact in society?

You'd be surprised.

I used to go to school with a guy who repeatedly gamed the system any time he got a ding. He was a real scumbag, with a talent for finding more experienced scumbags telling him how to fake an injury, and how there's some injuries no test can prove but that they take your word on. Never for big money, maybe 5-10k here or there, but he got away with it.

you can do some crazy stunts and become an Instagram star and make millions. LOL.

But if I can have my stock market success with wolverine’s healing ability then I wouldn’t need to do any of that.
