But you have to keep clicking your fingers constantly otherwise it undoes itself again

I am basically a human compass and always know where I am so I never get lost

your power requires ungodly amounts of coffee to function, which doesn’t harm you directly, but does seriously hurt your wallet

i can sing in falsetto and have it sound good

SE: Eliminating it in this world moves it to another. Your power, if overused, builds tensions between alternate universes that could lead to war.

SP: I can run *real* fast

SE: Instead, you must constantly listen to the same heavy metal song at max volume on repeat. If you ever stop listening, at any time, anywhere, and for any reason, you fall instantly asleep as you begin to require it to function again.

SP: I have the ability to grant my friends their dream superpowers when asked nicely

SE: Your friends use their superpowers to backstab you, stealing your important assets and belongings, followed with ending your life prematurely, and they’re not caught for the crime.

SP: I’m immortal, and no longer need to eat, drink, sleep and use the toilet, and also physically invulnerable to this limited list of: aging, sickness, sense deterioration, physical pain.

SE: You become immortal at age 8. Since you’re immune to aging, you’re stuck in a situation where no-one ever takes you seriously, nor do they believe you if you tell them you’re immortal. You’re stuck reliving 3rd grade until the collapse of (the rest of) humanity.

SP: I know at least five minutes in advance exactly what my result will be when rolling any dice
