The state of nenena's birthday present is as follows:


1. One of the villains considers their mission SRS BZNS and thinks their special power (which I made up) is really amazing.
2. This power, I just realized, is ridiculous.
3. I am not Scott Smith.

So the question becomes Why am I not Scott Smith, dammit? Do I just take this power seriously anyway and hope for the best? Do I acknowledge that this power is silly even if the villain won't OH GOD IT'S LIKE TRYING TO KEEP RYOUGA FROM TURNING INTO THE WOOBIE HE THINKS HE IS or do I just tell Nicholas Cage to go home?

I think it will be intriguing whichever path you choose. I kind of want you to write all of them so I can read them ALL, but that would be unfair to you. So I don't know if this comment is helpful at *all*, but yes. I think ridiculous special powers are awesome.

It *is* helpful! Now that I've slept on it I think Nicholas Cage is the real problem; I'll tell him to be quiet XD.

Yay!

DYING. DYING OF CURIOUSITY.

Also I am a huge fan of ridiculous powers being taken seriously. I read Marvel comics and Soul Eater! So I say go for it!

WHAT IF YOU LOVE EVERYTHING THE AUTHOR WROTE EXCEPT THIS, WHICH YOU HATE WITH THE BURNING PASSION OF A THOUSAND SUNS?????

It is a very Soul Eater-type ridiculous power! (I gave it to them so they'd fit into the Soul Eater universe properly!) But maybe I can abstractify it a little? Also, things are much improved now that I told Nicholas Cage to shut up. But, oh goodness, I will have to DO RESEARCH to use this power properly! (And also, I would like to do more research to use the other villain properly.)

Um, this is the worst birthday present ever. Maybe I can write you something less ambitious for your actual birthday?
