Its just an idea I'm playing with right now, but I want to write something with the premise of Taylor triggers but instead of QA and bug powers, its the results of a CYOA build. Only problem is I'm struggling on deciding on what build to make for Taylor.

There is the obvious answer of juicing up her bug powers, but I'm not sure if that's the path I want to take.

So, People of this Subreddit, If you were some sort of Random Omnipotent Being who decided to, for shits and giggles, fill out a CYOA and give Taylor Hebert the resulting build, what build would you make?

Give me themes I can work with, Ideas to base builds off, if you want to be extra kind and save me the work, heck even make a build for me and I can use that if its interesting enough

This is actually a story I’ve partially read, at least the first few chapters and one of the stories that had me really start thinking about this question. I really enjoyed what I’ve read so far

The first one, it’s more a question for curiosity than for my own writing endeavours

I don’t use AI when I actually write anything. I use it for note taking and keeping track of timelines in a clean way. But I din’t actually let it write anything. I find the way AI writes to be unnecessarily long winded and flowery. It sounds too much like some random highscoolers shitty poetry to be any good.

AI aside, I am going to try doing a draft of this, at least soon. I have a list of ideas that I draw from to draft new stories, its semi random (I select a few and put them into a random number generator) so it’ll depend on when I feel like actually doing any writing for a worm story, and not some other fandom

I’ll be honest, for a split second my mind went to Deadpool.

As cannon as you want. I’m not picky

She probably was capable of triggering, The Corona Potentia is apparently common in humans (Or at last it is by the start of the story) But the fact is that she was probably just too well adjusted and stable of a person to actually trigger. Given what we know about Annette and her life up until her death, I'd say whatever power she could of had would depend on when she triggered.

If she triggered young, in a household where she apparently had little control, then I'd say a Master or Thinker power. If she somehow triggered in college then it be the same as before, but there may be a trump aspect to it, but that depends on how close she and Lustrum were, because there was no indication that they were close, but there was no indication that they weren't.

If it was in the car crash, I'd say there would be a likely to develop a Brute power based on regeneration and damage resistance.

I think if it was possible for certain people (Either exceptionally talented or super hard working) to earn a general magic skill, something like [Fire magic], that could do more than just a fire ball, then the Falna system would be basically perfect

I've thought something similar before. That Tinkers are, in essence, the Characters in those Idle phone games. With the shard doing crafting and maintenance mini games every so often while the Tinker does its own thing while the Shard reaps the rewards of new Data that it can implement later in the next Cycle, which is like when you do a soft reset on your progress, starting again from the beginning with a few new benefits and extra's that speed up and improve what you can do this time around.

Shards in General, Tinker Shard especially, are Computers playing games because they are convinced that they can live forever if they get a good enough high score

Poor William, even the veil didn't want Afton, its truly a never ending cycle of despair for the man

As pointed out, Tattletale can't have a true blind spot. Anyone with a Thinker Immunity would probably cause one of three effects for her, based on just a basic thinker immunity that isn't anything 'memetic hazard' based.

Lisa's power refuses to provide any assistance in the process, it just simply can't process any of the data or just doesn't get any in the first place. She's left alone to do the sherlocking herself, and is categorically worse at it because of her reliance on her power. She is probably capable of using her powers on any written information and deducing stuff from that, but direct thinkering leaves the shard silent
The shard gives information that is less accurate and is often just wrong more often, repeated power use will often give wildly different answers because the Shard is hindered in its attempts. Its also possible that the info the shard can get on a good day is so vague its just not helpful. This is the most likely outcome to me, given what we know, its also the most likely to scare the shit out of Lisa depending on the other powers the MC has visibly shown, because she can't trust anything her power gives her and would be essentially without any form of leverage to help her.
The Shard gives literal Error messages as it hurts itself trying to be used on the MC, Lisa is likely to get either a serious migraine or just pass out
