For example:

  • You can fly but you can never stop flying
  • You can turn invisible, but never be seen again

    I would want the superpower of linguistics: the ability to fluently read, speak, and understand any language ever spoken or will be spoken.

      I guess in combination with the ‘can’t stop it’ twist that would mean that you can’t stop talking in these old and random languages. So people will think you’re crazy and you’ll end up in some kind of mental illness hospital.

        He is saying being fluent and able to understand it too. So never stops means he can’t ever forget a language, as I’m interpreting it.

          How is that different from ‘being able to fly’ or ‘being able to turn invisible’? My understanding of OP’s twist is that you don’t have full control over your ability but that the skill is permanently active.

        you mean I can’t stop talking and I’m super annoying or I can shut up and use a phone app.

        I had never heard of Cypher before, but yes. Just like that.
