Superpower

If you could have one, what would it be?

Invisability. No doubt.

Since I can't choose just one, I'll have to go with a combo:

Eternal youth/Superhuman charisma.

I'm asking a dead serious question. Is this a permanent on-all-of-the-time sort of super power? Or a "use it when we want" super power?

I'd hate to be invisible forever, but It would be awesome to use at will. I could flip a coin between invisbilitly and mind-reading.

tough one.

invisibility would be cool, but, face it...there's only so many times that you would want to see your boss naked before the novelty wears off. plus, even if you were invisible and snuck into the ladies locker room, you couldn't even so much as cop a feel without the chick freaking out and screaming or having a heart attack or something.

I always figured that the ability to stop time would be the way to go. I mean, that way you can stop the clock, walk up to an intriguing female, and really do whatever you want - strip her naked, cop a feel, whatever. wouldn't really be the most animated of encounters, but still a little more interaction than just hiding invisible in the corner while she showers.

Not to mention all the fun jokes you could play on co-workers - making their coffee mug vanish mid-sip, etc etc.

Not that I've put much thought into it.

I would think it's an "on all the time" type of superpower, but the power is controlable. Kind of like Cyclops' ruby beam thing.

Be creative.
