Congratulations! You are now a Magic-User!!

Spin the wheel to find out in which way your Magic begins to gradually transform your body?

How do you feel about this?

HELL YEAH THIS IS PERFECT FOR ME

This is very cool!

This is neat, I guess…

I mean, it could definitely be worse….

I feel utterly indifferent about this change

Honestly, I don’t think I’d even notice anything is different

This transformation has both strong upsides and downsides, I feel conflicted

This is perfect for me (Deragetory)

This isn’t the worst, but I still feel disappointed…

This feels pretty sucky tbh…

This is a very lousy side-effect, but at least I still have magic, right?

THIS IS SO SO BAD MAGIC ISN'T WORTH IT FOR THIS SIDE EFFECT

My romantic/sexual partner

My best friend

Someone with direct power over me (boss, parent, doctor, teacher, etc)

My pet

A celebrity or politician

A complete stranger

Someone else

Gonna be real with you pal I would not body swap with anyone

Just a concept I may or may not develop further, only time will tell...

A normal Magical Girl loves her flashy transformation, but not her... She literally dies and is reborn every time she uses her powers... A short general synopsis: The world has lots of magical girls who fight for love and justice. These girls are called "Pure Magikas." However, there are others who have embraced dark magic, known as "Corrupt Magikas."

It is the duty of the "Pure Magikas" to stop the spread of darkness by defeating their evil counterparts in magical battles known as "Bandemias."

Percy: hey, Nico?

Nico: hmm

Percy: do you remember when you were telling us about how when you were transporting the Athne partheon you-

Nico: almost turned ot ghost and died?

Percy: yes, that!

Nico: ... what about it?

Percy: could you do that on purpose?

Nico: I- what?

Percy: Uncle H is 'the Unseen' right? So what if you could intentionaly become ghost- or like- something like that?

Nico: I- I almost died last time that happened

Percy: yeah, but you also almost died when you first shadow-traveled. Now you can basically travel across the whole world and back without breaking a sweat!

Nico: don't you dare-

Percy: my point still stands!

Nico: .... I'll ask Will and dad about it

Hi, I was wondering about the Buddha's description of Sun Wukong, when talking about the Four Spiritual Primates:

"The first," said Tathagata, "is the intelligent stone monkey, who

Knows transformations,

Recognizes the seasons,

Discerns the advantages of earth,

And is able to alter the course of planets and stars.

Has Sun Wukong ever been shown to have the ability to "alter the course of planets and stars", or do you think the Buddha is perhaps speaking metaphorically? Or speaking in hyperbole?

Thanks, and thank you for all the work you've done studying and writing about Journey to the West!

Hi. I've thought about this before, but I don't have a definite answer. The following comes from page 93 of my catalog of Sun Wukong's powers and skills:
