        I wouldn’t care. I’d walk out into the world to go see stuff and maybe change some things. I wouldn’t stay still or build a life with those powers.

        Otherwise, you could look at Howard families by Heinlein for the solution. Which is also to move before people notice, but staying put for periods of time at a time.

    shapeshifting

    depending on how realistic you want to keep it the benefits go from “pretty nice” to “god amongst men” level:

    • backpain? just fix your back
    • toothache? grow new teeth
    • don’t feel like going to the hairdresser? shift into a different hairstyle
    • gender problems? forget HRT you can make hormones science doesn’t even know about
    • aging is no more (if you want)
    • donate all the blood you want! hell you can donate your heart if you find a doctor that doesn’t ask questions
    • mental fog getting you down? just fuckin change your brain. “is it still me after?” don’t know don’t care now go revolutionize physics Einstein
    • grow a tail

    the possibilities are endless

    I’d take Wolverine’s healing powers. I have a few chronic injuries that I wrestle with, and it would be amazing to be free of pain. I’d also be able to be reckless again like I was when I sustained said injuries. It would also be pretty cool to smoke cigars, inhaling them the whole time, eat 10 pounds of bacon each week, and other generally deadly behaviors that could be quite enjoyable.

    Either Mind Control, like Killgrave’s in Jessica Jones, or if I can cheat a little, Legion’s powers in Legion on FX. He sort of has multiple but they can all basically be chalked up to “mind powers” if we’re being loose with it.

    For the record I’m not saying I want to be like Killgrave, he’s a disgusting small monster, but… his abilities are insane. Hard to resist something like that.

    As for Legion’s, I mean I’d effectively be a god. Hard to pass that up, tho maybe not if it comes bundled with the schizophrenia.

      Honestly this is a pretty good one. It’s basically the “any technology of sufficient complexity is indistinguishable from magic” answer. The Q Continuum were a weird mix of magic/super powers, and even demonstrated the ability to gift those abilities to others at will.

      It was just one line but I loved when someone told Q that he was a trickster god to a planet from how much he messed with them in the past.

      The implications of that. Ok, without the Marvel movies I highly doubt even 10% of the human race knows what Loki is about. Q was the trickster god for an entire planet. Billions of people knew the legend of Q. He must have been doing stuff to them for thousands of years all across their society. Take the most well known people in history there is still a big possibility that most people hadn’t heard of them a century or so ago.

      Q was bigger to them than Jesus, Buddha, Mohammed, Moses, the Emperors of China, the Monarch of the UK, Plato, and Santa combined to this species.
