You do not get to turn these powers off, they are always active.
This question was inspired by those toy dinosaur things.
“Ha ha ha, let’s throw a bucket of water on this nerd!”
“Don’t make me wet. You wouldn’t like me when I’m wet.”
Gets bigger but not any heavier or stronger
sounds like a she hulk porn lol
Fuck you, I’m doing both and glowing harder the bigger I get.
There we go, Halloween sorted.
I guess the grow bigger in the water thing because I can’t imagine how hard it would be to fall asleep if I’m glowing.
How bright would I glow? Enough to read by?
Yeah, like a dim yellowish greenish light that you can just about read by
My eyesight’s pretty weak, so I’m not sure that would do it… but on the other hand I could navigate the house at night without bumping my shins on furniture. I think that’s enough to sell me on glowing.
You’d have moths flocking to you at night, though, which might be awkward.
That would be a definite minus.
It might be harder to navigate. Looking past your own glowing eye sockets could make your eyes adjust to the closer, brighter light and leave you night blind
I’d need time durations on the size changes… But obviously the size changes.
Other comments indicate you also get heavier, a bath each morning followed by exercise could be interesting with the extra weight.
Also you’d have documentaries made about you. It’s a completely novel behavior… And what happens if you soak just a part of your body… Your penis for instance?
The glowing? Technically you could already do that, genetic scientists have already created glow in the dark pigs, so glowing seems similar. No more hiding in the dark, you’re a beacon now. If a mugger or the cops are chasing you… Oh there you are. Not really helpful like being three times taller and heavier because you had a bath would be.
You had me sold on the water growth thingy in paragraph 3.
The second sounds like it has far more room for stupid bullshit, so that one
Wow, both those options suck. Nice dilemma, OP
Would the insides of my eyelids glow? Cause fuck that if that’s the case.
No, only the outside of your body
I assume hyper-stretchy clothing isn’t a reality yet? Getting caught in a rain storm would be inconvenient. I think I would still go with water growing. I need near complete darkness to sleep. And glowing skin would be hella annoying in a movie theater.
Wait, how do I drink water? Get slightly bigger then shrink back?
Do you get bigger by absorbing air (thereby increasing your buoyancy) or by absorbing water (with the opposite effect)?
By absorbing water
you would sink though.
“You look a little small. Are you drinking enough water?”
If I put part of me in say a glass of water then would it just be the part in the glass that slowly grew and how fast and how much.
You’re gonna put your dick in a glass of water, huh?
Let me ask you if you’ve ever heard about the Yardhouse’s older Full Yard sized glasses. I’m thinking water would go real well in one of those.
Like, a cylinder?
Like a thimble of water?
is this ‘glow in the dark’ like i’m radioactive and constantly glow a little bit, or is this ‘glow in the dark’ like i absorb a little bit of light and slowly re-emit it, so if i wait long enough in darkness i’ll stop glowing?
You constantly glow with a dim yellow-green light, just bright enough to read in
Is it only my skin or, like, the inside of my eyelids too?
Just the outside of your body
It’s night half the time, and I’ll be really visible if I’m glowing whether I want to be or not. So, definitely the second one. Prolonged water contact in a visible place is easier to avoid, if needed.
I plan to re-enact Gulliver pulling along the Lilliputian armada.
Take a shower and destroy your house. I’m going for glowing.
If it’s toy dino-speed, you’ll be significantly taller after a longer shower, but not giant, and nothing will break. If I actually do the thing from the Spongebob opening on contact with water, I’d reconsider.
But imagine that you get stuck in a water pipe or wedged somewhere in a rain storm. Glowing is annoying but not nearly as bad as potentially drowning because your car crashed into a lake and you can no longer escape through the window.
I feel like those situations are already life-threatening to some degree, so I’ll take my chances.
I’d assume growth over the course of just exiting a car wouldn’t be too significant.
Why can I not come to a conclusion on this decision…
