[WP] You get a knock. You open the door to see your nemesis, bruised and beaten, with your child. "Just saved their life. Need to go home and rest." Your nemesis turns to leave. You grab their arm. "Hang on. I want you to tell me what happened." You drag them inside.

[WP] You finally did it, you built a time machine! You head back 2000 years to Jerusalem, thinking you'd finally end the debate and see Jesus for yourself... but, when you finally find him and look at him, he suddenly turns towards you as if struck by an invisible force, rage visible in his eyes.

[WP] It’s a common know fact that if a person dies climbing Mount Everest the body is left on the mountain. That’s why a serial killer likes to disguise himself as a Sherpa in order to hide his victims.

[WP] 'Naive' mind uploading suffers from the 'cloning' problem (the upload is just a clone, the original is still in their body). Solution? The Ship of Theseus. Gradually replace pieces of brain with cybernetics until one day there's no organic brain left and you can be disconnected from your body

[WP] Your wife has an estranged sister that you have never met. She was murdered in a cold case soon after you were married. You brush off your wife’s new strange behaviour after the murder as grief. Until you find an old family photo of your wife as a kid, you shiver as you realise… they’re twins.

[WP] You are constantly mocked for having such a weird superpower by all the other heroes. “The power to make anything into perfectly cooked soup”… One day, a massive meteor is barreling towards earth. As all the other heroes are panicking, you wait perfectly calm, at the impact zone, bowl in hand.
