I would have just taken telepathic will so that it just ends there.
Yeah why would you take wings over telekinetics that’s wild
Aesthetics? 🤷🏻♂️
Have fun putting on any sort of shirt.
You don't need a genie to get prop wings on your back.
I imagine with telekinetics you need to concentrate real hard on not falling.
With wings you can just (heh) wing it much more safely.
Just wear a glider jumpsuit so you can just ascend up with telekinesis and then glide the rest
Can I get the telekinetic head-exploding powers of Victoria Neuman from The Boys?
Also, can I get a list of events where certain politicians will be speaking in front of large public audiences? Asking for a friend.
Sure, but what if telepathic powers somehow affect your brain chemistry or morphology? Aside, Would flying be like manipulating gravity or lifting yourself up with an "invisible hand"?
The gravity manipulation is much better if they are handing out options.
What's the Roche limit of the ground you're standing on?
But the giant invisible hand probably allows for more intuative fine control plus its just more satisfying if you want to smash something.
In order to use telepathy, we'll need to add a new section to your brain. Would you like to shrink the other sections of your brain to make room, or would you like a bigger brain? Oh, you want a bigger brain? Well, now we need to expand your head. Would you prefer an egghead or do you want the whole thing to grow? It will also come at the cost of requiring more energy.
Can we put a small brain annex in my abdominal cavity to handle the additional workload? It seems like the autonomic functions could safely be relocated there.
Dude ''magic'' doesn't require anything.
Is that a deliberate conscience telepathic effort, or automatic unconscious reflex? (eg. Perhaps you don't want to accidentally hover or float in public.)
ok well moving an object still requires energy, so you're gonna need the increased metabolism perk. We'll have to increase blood flow to the brain, oh and it'll need to be increased in mass a lot...how do you feel about a tall head?
Some how this ended up with erectile dysfunction..
How much energy does telepathy use though?
You mean "telpthic will power".
You're the second person to use 'telepathic will' in these comments and both times are vague as to what that means.
Telekinesis that I can control at will.
Ok, so 'telepathic will' more or less means that you're projecting your will into someone's mind. Telekinesis at will is a very different thing, and it implies at will (with the mind without physical touch).
Just my two cents, it confused me - is all.
