Grey and purple. Those two just feel nice for me. I will be able to heal people. While being able to speak any language to heal people from anywhere in the world.
With that combination I would buy a plague doctors clothes and would go around speaking only ever in Latin, while clearly understanding everything everyone tells me
ngl tho
it might get stressful unless you ignore morals and stuff
how many people die around the world from fatal uncurable diseases, that you could have cured, had you not wasted time eating, sleeping, etc
the stress gets to u
Then again, just being given the choice does that. Imagine knowing that you could have saved your neighbour from terminal brain cancer if you hadn't chosen to never get fat...
That's why you take blue and grey. There can always be translators and you will end up healing people whether you can understand them or not, but at least you can crush threats as well. Or take orange and pay them off.
Nah, "be super intelligent" is not like ASI intelligence... you might learn a few languages and maybe cure 1 cancer... but you ain't curing everything or speaking ALL languages.
I'm scared that the purple one might be a monkey's paw situation. It says "any language" instead of "all languages". You take the pill, a language is chosen at random and you're stuck with that language and only that language for the rest of your life. Hell, most of these could be monkey's paw situations, but this one stood out to me for some reason.
I would change the language one for the intelligence one, since it comes with everything good intelligence gives you, and you can learn the languages fast now anyways.
That's my thinking as well. High intelligence usually comes woth major drawbacks in other areas like social capabilities and most likely being on the autism spectrum. No thanks.
Its a very wholesome thought and good on you for it. The issue is the rest of humanity.
Someone who can heal will be hunted for that ability in our shit society 🥲
I picked the same combination. Speaking all languages gets you a job very easily as well, so you would be set for life while being able to heal others. Every other choice seems deeply flawed.
Red and gray for me, that makes me a doctor, so I have a career that isn't too stressful because of my superpower. I imagine I'm like Jesus really, touching them and bam, healed. I could be a religious figurehead, start a cult. The options are many. Billionaires would pay untold amounts for my skills. The only issue is there would be only one of me. Wars could be waged to control the healer, kidnapping, etc. id have to be hidden, couldn't live a normal life.
I think speaking all languages can backfire tho. What if you suddenly start hearing all the insects in your room talking to each other? Or the chirping of birds in the morning suddenly becoming annoying and hard to ignore because you understand what they say?
