Do you have any weird abilities you never trained or learned? I don’t mean like superpowers, I mean more mundane things like how some people can remember long strings of numbers or how some people have perfect pitch. I bet some of y’all can fart on command.
I can attest that I have a 100% success rate in determining if a person is evil within seconds of meeting them. I don’t know what that’s called but it’s like the thing Bruce Willis does in Unbreakable. I’ve successfully identified people I’ve thought were going to be murderers several times and I was correct. I’ve been able to identify racists, a guy who neglected his kids, and I was the only person in my entire family to get weird feelings about one of my uncles. He ended up getting convicted of fraud because he was stealing life insurance payouts at his insurance job. I just go off vibes and maybe I’m ignoring all the false positives I get but anecdotally I’ve always been correct about my weird feelings, and I often detect evil in people who are otherwise well-liked among others before they do the evil thing. I just feel it even when there’s no noteworthy evidence I dunno.
So can y’all do anything cool?
I too have the detect evil spell and it frustrates me when others dont see it. Other than that I have absurdly good recall down to remembering conversations I had years ago down to time of day, position, lighting, room layout, weather. Its completely useless other than making the regrets of my life significantly more painful to remember.
It’s frustrating for me because I simply don’t have the words to say why I think a person is evil. They just give me a bad feeling and seem frightening. It’s not a rational thing at all and if I try explaining why someone seems bad then i seem like a judgemental butthole.
But like can you remember good memories or is it just traumatic stuff
I envy your ability, even with the associated drawbacks.
I have a question, can you distinguish between someone who wouldn’t hurt you without a reason, but wouldn’t piss on you if you were on fire unless there was something in it for them?
I can’t really predict what a person is going to do, I just get a bad feeling about them. It’s not a precise skill. At most I can maybe guess how evil they are, like I can guess if they’re simply a person who will openly say slurs versus someone like a murderer. But the only tangible information I can determine from a person is if they should be avoided.
I remember good things as well. Many things like what i used to do at nursery and arguing with adults about their flawed silly logic (i was insufferable). Most of my memory space is instant recall of every single video game i have played and even ones i havent for my perfect guessthegame score.
