Government would want to control you, not just as a Nat security risk but you also don't know how the public would react ie religious lunatics and the media It's not that big of a deal. Even if you were spiderman tier with your powers, you're still far less effective than a bunch of drones for military purposes. The investment in creating a specialized military role for you is not worthwhile, nor worth the backlash. DemonBuffet posted... glitteringfairy posted... You would be declared a matter of national security or danger to the country and they would do whatever they wanted. There is no handbook for dealing with people that have super powers. I'm pretty sure they would figure out a way to make it happen if they government/military wanted you badly enough. The house always wins. You think Uncle Sam is going to let you fly around all willy nilly without finding a loophole to put a stop to it? Yes. Well, not with flight in particular (air traffic laws are complex and it could be a problem), but if you were super speed running around they're not going to kidnap you. Seriously. Does the government capture David Blaine after his big tricks until they determine how he pulled it off? --- My sister's dog bit a hole in my Super Mario Land cartridge.
