Run the hand forward precognitively, whilst making the table and walls an optical resource for you so you can see all facedown cards and hands.

12: Simultaneously cure the Hodgkin's Lymphoma, the puppy love, the cocaine habit, clean out the drug cocktail, and change the cards so that this had always been a play you were going to win, and which they were going all-in on.

Dog Kisser posted:I, uh, assume you'll try this then break your connection so you don't absorb them immediately after you heal them. Hmm, good point. Can we make them think they're still independent and autonomous whilst keeping a backdoor open if we need an escape puppet?

Make him voluntarily surrender his power to you, give you his gun, apologise profusely and soil himself in fear whilst blubbering.

Targeted on the dealer. If that's harder, good, we need trick shots to build momentum.

1 8 "You are going to tell me exactly and completely where and how you got this, from whom, and for what. I'm going to be nice and let you tell me the truth of your own volition. If you think about lying, and you know I can recognise the concept forming in your mind before you even decide what to say, I will act towards you with merciless cruelty, and then I will rip the knowledge from your mind anyway."

Shooting us in the face is nothing, an irrelevance. Killing him is pointless, we've already neutered him. Might as well angle some hope to Stockholm him.

We need trick shots to get momentum. Each instance of failing to cooperate, and we physically age his family five years. Should he fully and completely give us what we need to hear, we revert them.

Aabcehmu posted:Momentum is important because somehow, we had whatever it was done to us, even with the power we had before. So, we have be to stronger. Stronger than we've ever been before. Exactly this. There are sharks out there, and we aren't the biggest fish in the pond. Yet.

Vicariously experience every moment of his and his families' lives, focusing on his work. Memorise every inert and active delivery he has ever made. Memorise and locate his co-workers. Leave him and his family untouched and perfectly restored, we'll need to work on our interrogation techniques.

Re-absorb everything in the case that is Us. Refocus and do the memory delve right this time, then reset everyone else, except for, you know what? Yeah, they are family. They've known you all their lives, they love you, they'd do anything for you and are happy to help out.

Create an exact simulation of your own mind and delve the copies of your memories as with option 9. Trick shot to try and get momentum, and give us a buffer if there's an unwelcome guest in our recollections.

3 Summon every person in the city, in the right age range, to you at a time and place of your choosing. Have everyone accept this as normal, reasonable and unsurprising.

10. Overload her with mercy and empathy. Drown her in it. Make her weep the tears of all who suffer within a hundred miles. Make her willing to give away all that she has in order to be charitable. Have her make the idealised version of Mother Theresa of Calcutta look miserly, selfish and hedonistic. Have her return what is ours out of the goodness of her own heart. How dare she try and stand up to and challenge us? She is broken, a half-thing. Give her everything she is missing in abundance, a plethora. Graciously accept what is ours.

Time to go surreal. Warp reality so that every offensive move she makes reflects back upon herself, and simultaneously heal Chance in the background as an afterthought.

Telefrag her mind with Plan Saint when she doesn't expect it. Do it remotely so she can't distract us with mere physical diversions.

1. "Hi, Kelly-Anne. I'm sorry to say this but someone tried to mutilate your mind and sense of self, crippling your ability to cry and your concept of mercy. I have done my best to repair the damage. There's something that bastard forced on you, forced in you when you were vulnerable, made you want it, made you like it. I'm here to help you with that as well."

3+9+ Raise the stakes of 9 by offering to give her the frame to withstand her own strength so it doesn't hurt her and the wisdom to know when not to use her powers as well. Get momentum, get a better teammate.

# ¿ Mar 8, 2017 20:39 |

Hmm, point. Is there any way to balance out the die loss with momentum gain?

Dog Kisser posted:Totally doable, though burning your power will drop you to 3d6 like your partners. This is why I initially went 9 rather than 10. Can we take our power back, copy it, and give her the copy?

Dog Kisser posted:Think of it as encrypted but unlocked - you're able to make use of it, but not easily copy it. Or, really, transfer it - though there is an Ability to make that easier... The thought occurs, if it's difficult, could we gain momentum by doing so?

1+ Fix all the evidence. No need to get sloppy about this. Also, touch up the rest of her life so that everyone she knows and loves is perfectly okay with her doing the superhero thing, and keeping it in confidence.
