Would You Trade Your Writing/Drawing Skills for Super Powers?

[powerplantanimations]

Here's a fun question: Would you trade your writing/drawing skills for super powers? And if so, what would it be? The rule is simple... you can't give yourself super powers that'll give you your drawing and writing skills back. Once they're gone... they're gone.

For example; "I'll give myself immortality and relearn everything! I'll be a super genius so I can learn to write and draw again!".

We're doing Devil Fruit rules.

For me... no since I'm too obsessive over writing despite me being into super heroes. Also I'm afraid I might be one of THOSE people who'll get too power hungry.

Not saying that I would get power hungry, I'm just saying I don't want to find out if I'm one of those heroes that need to be put down.

Also I don't trust the government and I'm afraid nations might want to assassinate me or my family for doing too much good in the world.

[DualDragons]

Meh nope, I'd have a power but lose the thing I love doing. Besides there might be the chance of the government capturing me to study my superpower and treating me as a test subject which is even worse.

No thank you, I'll keep doign what I do

[powerplantanimations]

Okay now I wanna see how many people are afraid of the government trying to vivisect us in this thread lmao.

[DualDragons]

Yeah, also if I do resist then they might send the military after me and people would most likely be afraid of superpowers so I'd have almost nowhere to stay other than hiding in the wilderness

[powerplantanimations]

Also fighting crime seems like too much work.

[JaveCraze]

nope. nothing i would want to do with superpowers.
...That was quite a boring answer, but oh well.

[PapaDom]

Big nope. I love drawing too much to abandon it.

Also, if we play with devil fruit rules, we can't relearn said skill.

"Can devil fruit users swim in freshwater"
Fresh or salt water, it doesn't matter, it still drains a devil fruit user of their strength as long as it's ankle deep. We've seen Luffy and others exposed to fresh water and still be unable to swim.

Buut~ if I had to choose, I would go with the power to wipe out the planet.

[powerplantanimations]

Okay so now that you brought up wiping out a planet, I would actually want an invisible stand that walked around on its own and just beat-up shady people that're screwing thousands of people. Like dictators and all that and I can't control it, meaning I can't get caught with it. But I'm not sure if I'm ready to have my morals questioned when finding out that people that seem harmless end up being horrible people.

Like "DWAYNE JOHNSON IS THE ZODIAC KILLER?!? NOOOO! I REFUSE! I REFUUUUUUUUUUSE! I WISH I NEVER KNEW!!!!"

But at the same time, I don't think it's worth it because... what the Hell am I supposed to do while it's fighting crime without me?

[PapaDom]

Eating pizza and sleep all day?

That's what I would do. Or become a streamer.¯_(ツ)_/¯

[powerplantanimations]

I'm honestly afraid that I might lose my humor should I eat the devil fruit. So... I think I might be boring.

[Stargazer31]

Never! I love drawing and writing, and I'd hate to be unable to do it.

[powerplantanimations]

You know what? Screw it. I think I would only eat the fruit if my power was to give people of pure hearts power. So I can have an excuse to walk around looking like this:

And I can sense people's purity too.

I'd also give myself a mysterious name like "The Stranger".

Because hot damn, if I can't stream, then I might as well just walk around. Or I can just walk around the city and just tapping people like a moron.

[PapaDom]

Ahh. I don't think that the fruit will mess with your psyche. You're just losing your ability to draw/write.
Unless you're only funny on paper, then my pity.

[darthmongoose]

The irony that gaining superpowers would mean losing the ability to make my comic that's literally about why wanting superpowers can ruin your life...

[Teira]

Hell no. I love drawing way too much...plus, people with powers tend to be in the spotlight often(in movies), and thats something I wouldn't want.

[TheLemmaLlama]

Depends; do I still retain enough communication skills to communicate my visions for my stories well enough for someone else to execute them? If so, then yes; I will trade my writing and drawing skills for any superpower that lets me easily make enough money to hire people to make my comic for me :] (I just want the stuff I'm thinking about to exist so people can read it and I can read their discussions; whether or not I can claim the honour of having created it is insignificant to me :P)

If not, then it seems like I'm basically a vegetable with superpowers, so no?

[CarltonIsaac]

Creative talents are superpowers, so I'm all set.

[AnonymousHouseCat]

you know what? I think I would! Drawing and seeing myself get better at drawing over time is a large part of what brings me joy in life, but I have other hobbies/creative outlets. So if I could have a power like 1. flying 2. invisibility 3. talking to animals or 4. teleportation, I would hand over my drawing and/or writing skills, although I would be a bit sadder to see the writing go.

I don't think I'd use my powers to save the world though, and I probably wouldn't even tell people I had them. I'd just use them for myself and to help people every once in a while.

[DasIstWunderblyat]

If the superpower is making what you imagine comes true, then I will take it.

[truck-kun]

YES. I personally write cause I like imagining thrilling stuff, but if I have the opportunity to make my life thrilling by getting super powers, I would very well trade my writing skills.
