Jul 8, 2007 @ 6:37 pm
I found another thead inspired by "
Skippy's List" in the Lost thread and thought about adding one here; only someone already made a "Things I'm No Longer Allowed To Do at OWI" thread and that took away some of my ideas. Here is what I have so far:
1. I cannot fly off a 30-story bulding.
* I can only do this if my big brother is around.
**He has a busy schedule, and I should remember that next time I want to do this.
2. Mind-reading is rude, and I should not do it to just anyone.
*But if it helps me save my marriage, that's okay.
Anyone else wanna play? :)

3. No matter how tempting, I am not allowed to use my X-ray vision to spy on the Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders' locker room.
* Or my invisibility.
** Or my ability to walk through walls.
*** Or my ability to create illusions.
**** Or my shape-changing abilities.
***** My claims of only trying to protect them will be ignored.
****** I'm now officially banned from Cowboy Stadium.

4. I am not allowed to mock individuals with less, shall we say, interesting abilities than my own.
*Yes, that includes the guy who can talk to goldfish.
*And the person who fixes the copier.
*I am to remember that this is how the whole debacle with Sylar got started, especially when I have the perfect scathing comment.

5. If I am an empathic mimic, I am not allowed to use Candice's ability on Halloween without her permission.
*Even if it is an emergency.
**Unless it involves Claire. I am not allowed to ask about this, unless I want to get my legs broken by Mr. Bennett.
**Or Nathan Petrelli. Or anyone else in her family, for that matter.

Seen Sky High, wp?
No, I just figured that's what I'd do if I had a superpower. Make fun of people.
10. Cape and tights for crime fighting, street clothes for everyday life. NOT the other way around.
*That includes Casual Friday.
11. I am not allowed to publish my manuscript, "Peter Petrelli, the Unauthorized Biography"
*Or the sequel about Nathan.

*I am not allowed to write anyone's biography.

13. I am not allowed to tell Parkman that I only hang out with him because if Sylar were chasing us, I wouldn't have to outrun Sylar, I'd just have to outrun him.
* Not even if it's true.
* The excuse "Eden told me to say that" has not worked in the past and will not work this time, either.

14. If someone hits my car with a shopping cart in a parking lot, I am not allowed to melt the cart.

16. Just because I could use my power of persuasion to get Sylar to lounge around his cell naked, does not mean I should do it.
* Mohinder is not actually an OWI employee and therefore his request that I keep doing it has been denied.
* Using my power of persuasion to make Mr. Linderman to open the board meeting by reciting "I'm A Little Teapot" was also not a good idea, and I should consider myself lucky that my only punishment was the revocation of pot pie privileges.
* Though Mr. Bennet has admitted that my threat to persuade Parkman to lounge around naked may have been an influence on their decision to go easy on me.

17. "Hey babe, I can cure what ails you!" is not an acceptable pickup line!
* I am to consider myself lucky that Jessica merely replied, "You wish, twerp!" as opposed to removing any of my appendages.
* The company is taking Eden's side and will not cover any chiropractic bills I incur as a result of following her directives, no matter how anatomically impossible they may be.
* I am to consider myself lucky that I haven't tried that line on Candice.
* Charlie is right, "I can cure what ails you" is improper English.

18. While phasing is useful for getting into and out of jail, it is not recommended for getting into, say, the mall.
*Or school.
*It is strongly recommended I no longer phase into or out of public places.
*I am now officially banned from phasing into or out of public places.
*As is getting Peter to mimic my ability and doing it for me.
*Mr. Linderman will not heal me the next time I upset Nathan by convincing Peter to do this "because it's your destiny"

19. I am not allowed to suggest to Peter that he use his power-empathy to mimic me, thereby obtaining a decent haircut and a less emo demeanor.
*Even if Nathan begrudgingly concurs.
*Mohinder tells me that my overly cheerful attitude is not in fact a superpower, and therefore I am no longer allowed to hang out with the actual Heroes.
*Especially since my, er, enthusiasm to find Sylar might make me a liability.

21. If I do use my powers to hook up with someone really hot, and then in the middle of the hookup the person suddenly turns into Candice in her actual form, and she posts a video of my reaction on YouTube, I am not allowed to use my powers to take vengeance on OWI employees who laugh at me.

23. If I decide to use my powers for evil, I will learn from the mistakes of others before me, e. g. no monologues in front of the hero, no conspicuous and easily-entered evil lairs, no plans that a brain-dead stick insect could foil, etc.
*I will only use my evil laugh when victorious. Not when I need to concentrate.
*I am to keep track of which heroes have evil leanings, and not try to recruit those who do not.
24. If I decide to use my powers for good, I will learn from the mistakes of others before me as well, e. g. no sparing the villain, no divulging my secret identity, no resolving sexual tension, no unsupervised sidekicks, etc.

* Also, telling my younger self that I shouldn't date that guy because he's a douche is a bad idea too. Girls need douches to make the good guy seem even better.
* Yeah, there's that whole time line thing, too. Whatever.

33. If I decide to create a crime-fighting alter ego, I am not allowed to assume that people are too dumb to tell the difference between the two personas without nametags.
*Simply removing my glasses does not count as a cunning disguise.
*Calling myself Super-[my name here] does not count as an alias.

39. I am not allowed to do the obvious thing to defeat the villian, which is take a two barrel shotgun and shoot them in the face, chop them up into tiny pieces and bury the pieces in cement.....under the ocean, thus eliminating any chances of them returnig to seek their revenge.
That would solve the problem within five minutes and then we'd all be out of work wouldn't we?
