Because long range. Also, hilarity of being able to be a Weeping Angel (Those are Terran creatures like dragons right?)

It's also sort of because I want us to wear a headband with cat ears on it.
But yeah mostly that.

Because one of my pet peeves about the original was the lack of Taylor's input, despite the fact that she was supposed to wake up.

[X] Plan Teleporting Dragon
Statement: "Fedorable+minimal restrictions 1km blink+shapeshifting=YES!
I like shapeshifting, I like mimetic jungian bullshit powers, I like teleportation restricted only by the los of other parahumans. We can shapeshift into cute animals wearing hats that have superpowers and ask little girls if we can grant their wishes."

Technically they're aliens and/or extradimensional beings. Kinda like you!
I would like to point out that Shared Sights is explicitly a Stranger power. It does not function on recordings or many similar methods of viewing. So in person, people will be able to properly appreciate Host's Friends, but those looking at camera feeds or the like won't be so blessed.
EDIT: You might want to switch it out for Creature Features if you want minions all other people will agree are cute. If the dissonance is desired, this is fine.

I was aware of the dissonance, but now that I think about it, cute to the eyes and horrible abominations to video is less funny and more of a horror story, and I have been eyeing the Creature Features...
Also, the dissonance of noncute zerglings with cat ears and fedoras...
Ok, lets try this:

--[X] Borrowed Features for Wonderful Creatures (-1 Points)
-[X] Fedorable (-1 Points)
-[X] Cat-Based Teleportation (-2 Points)

[X] Mic Drop (-1 Point)
Edit: changed my mind.
When does the vote close btw?

I have just recalled that Alivaril said there'd be a second voting phase where the top three plans would be chosen for everyone to vote for. Therefore, I believe it's safe enough to do this.
[X] Plan Teleporting Dragon (Horror Movie variant)
-[X] Form Control (-2 Points)
-[X] Cat-Based Teleportation (-2 Points)
--[X] Since when are they real people? (+1 Point)
-[X] Mic Drop (-1 Point)
-[X] Fedorable (-1 Points)
-[x] Administrative Access, Hardware (-1 Point)
Because I like the idea of only being able to teleport when nobody can see us. Or, if you look at it a different way, automatically teleporting to people's blind spots.
Also, you know what AA Hardware gives us? Flickering lights.

I'll probably do a partial lock and narrow it down to the most popular few options sometime this evening. I'll give those supporting other plans time to switch (possibly as much as 24 hours), then I'll finally lock it.
EDIT: Did tally from phone, so missed one or two merged votes.

Do you know what AA Software gives us? Invisibility to cameras.
And every speaker in range suddenly going Ya! Ya! Taylor F'thang!

Hmm. Is that actually hardware or software? We can probably switch off any cameras near us with hardware, I dunno if Software would let us real-time edit the footage as it was watching us. Speakers... Do they even have a software we can corrupt into doing that? I feel it's truer to the horror movie genre to just make the speakers crackle and turn off. Or... we can change the settings of all hardware around us. Maybe we can set the speakers to "fire alarm"?

I don't know why people seem to think we'll only get a decent teleport from the Cat-Based one. With Borrowed Features and Form Control, all we need to do is build a teleporting friend, probably by copying a piece of Vista's power, and presto, we can teleport. And have at least some of our minions be able to teleport.
With my plan, we'll gain new forms and powers, as well as new aspects to add to our Friends, by making friends amongst the hosts. We'll literally get powers and improve our Zerglings via the power of friendship. And also by shopping for hats.
...And now I'm imagining a tidal wave of Zerg swarming through a costume store, grabbing all the hats they can carry, and then lining up in the checkout lines. Because of course we'll pay for the hats to outfit our army. Stealing them would just be rude. Hats are going to get a whole lot harder to find in Brockton Bay, if my vote wins.

@Nixeu I really like your plan, it's probably my second fave of the leading plans, but I can't give up on the Weeping Angel potential of Cat based teleportation, or the Silence potential of Mic Drop. Like, imagine us chasing our prey through a darkened building, making lights flicker and teleporting in the darkness here and there, and then just as they reach outside... Mic Drop, and they wonder what they're doing outside in the first place.
Though actually, I suppose I should confirm. @Alivaril What exactly constitutes a reminder of us for Mic Drop?
EDIT: Also, just checking, but we'll be able to hear the other shards talking to us like in the previous quest right? I was just rereading and realised being able to hear the other shards wasn't originally intended.

Cat-based teleportation does not give that ability.
Enough time spent trying to remember what they were supposed to be doing, someone outright telling them, that sort of thing. If they're distracted, it's likely to get left by the wayside for closer to an hour instead of mere minutes.
Oh, definitely. That was more than half the fun.

So, in the scenario I outlined just now, where we just chased someone out of their home or something, and hit Mic Drop right before they get outside?
