I mean small like I sneeze and a 20 dollar bill appears in my hand or something like that. Not classic answers like flying or super strength.

The ability to know all of someone's usernames and passwords by only looking at a photo of their face.

The perfect ability in the modern age for a secret life as either vigilante or villain.

Kill every insect within 10 yards of me with a thought.

The ability to sneeze and get the relief even if the feeling fades.

Weak earth-bending. Like just enough to like dig garden furrows or build sand castles. Even at the same speed that it would take with hand tools it would be pretty fun to mess around with.

One of the biggest ones that still classifies as small?

I'd take perfect aim when throwing something. You always hit the garbage can, you're unstoppable playing darts. You never miss flinging a playing card at your friends.

You’re suddenly a superstar athlete making tens of millions of dollars. I think we have to disqualify you from the game on those grounds.

mustard seed size faith πŸ˜„

You don’t have enough faith,” Jesus told them. β€œI tell you the truth, if you had faith even as small as a mustard seed, you could say to this mountain, β€˜Move from here to there,’ and it would move. Nothing would be impossible.”(Matthew 17:20)

To be able to dream, or at least be able to remember my dreams if I actually am having them. I used to be able to remember my dreams pretty vividly right after I woke up and I could tell when I was having them. Now, nothing.

Being able to choose the best fruits/vegetables when shopping for groceries. No more moldy Avocados.

I know that there are indicators that I can already use to determine this, but I want to be able to just pick the best ones every time on first try without even thinking or touching them all.
