Over the past few years, since the start of a certain cool TV show - Heroes, I keep getting people state that I look Sylar aka Zachary Quinto. Normally it would be a good thing to be compared looks wise to a celebrity who attracts a lot of attention from the opposite sex, but when the character they play just so happens to be a serial killer who steals people's abilities, it's perhaps not such a great comparison!
However, it has led me to think in a geeky childish kind of way of what ability would I want to have if I could choose, there are of course plenty to choose from...
Pyrokinesis - Set fire to stuff, well you'd never be cold I suppose but thats about it.
Invisibility - Pretty obvious, but frankly it would get tiresome quickly
Super Strength - Pretty standard, not exactly a necessity
Super Speed - Again, basic standard stuff.
For me personally, Telepathy would come close. As long as its a controlled ability and not one which makes you go stir crazy as you hear everyones thoughts! But I think it would be great, it would mean that you'd able to see what people truly thought, no shroud, no hidden agendas, no ulterior motives would be inaccessible. In todays society, there are too many people who think and feel only for themselves, if you had this ability, it would mean that you'd see straight away how that is and avoid any kind of issues later down the line.
But the winner is Intuitive Aptitude, the ability to see exactly how things work and operate. Would be absolutely incredible in my eyes to be able to see the world for exactly how it functions, you'd be able to see how everything moves and flows, every action and reaction. It would be a truly amazing thing to have. Maybe I'm not so dis-similar to Sylar after all...
