16 year old you gets the ability to shapeshift into any nonhuman animal at will.

r/

You can change back at any time. You are not limited to one animal, but can only be one animal at a time, so no hybrids. Earth animals only. It must be a real animal(cue the people disappointingly deleting dragon). The transformation is instant and requires no calories or energy. You can stay transformed as long as you want. Your mind will remain intact in whatever form you take. You instantly know how to pilot it. 16 year old you has full knowledge of the power. What will they do with the power, and how will your life have changed up to the present?

    As a 16 year old, I see this as a win

    Am I supposed to pick one right now and think about how it would have affected my life up to this point? Or can I change into anything I want the entire time?

    16 year old me would 100% choose wolf, 20 year old me would be stuck trying to choose between a crow and a wolf

    When I was 16 the million dollar Randi Prize for proof of supernatural phenomenon was still a thing. So I’d claim that.

    If I can turn into dinosaurs then abso-fucking-lutely. Chasing the local crackheads around the park as a Utahraptor would be so much fun

    If I’m carrying a bag of groceries and shift into, say, a bird, does my bag of groceries stay with me? Do I still have said groceries on me when I return to being human?

    16 year old me would pick an eagle or a giant octopus

    I’d want to be something small and unassuming, like an ant. Then I could sneak into places and learn interesting things.

    Since you mention calories. I wonder how much power I could generate turning back and forth from a blue whale or an elephant (for comfort)

    Like picking elephant anyway maybe. So it’s worth the thought.

    Well last year I wanted to be a bird

    Oh man. This takes me back to animorphs as a kid.

    I think maybe an eagle. I could fly around, I’m protected in my country, and they are pretty cool birds.

    Well, I imagine if you can choose what they look like as long as it’s not human, you could get ridiculously close to the look of any human you wanted as a Neanderthal or other hominid, which is decidedly not human, if barely. There must be some rare physical expression that makes you look more human, and if that exists, then you essentially have nearly perfect shapeshifting.
