Peter's and Ando's abilities

Max Taggart · 02-19-2009, 09:10 AM

Ok, we all know that Peter now has a different ability which is similar to his original one, but also very different. If they can find a way to make the effects of Andos ability last indefinitly, then Peter might be able to get his ability supercharged so that he can hold multiple abilities at once and so, (in a way) regaining his original ability.

Your thoughts?

I agree, I've actually been discussing this with Eidetic a lot.
We talk about Ando's ability in general.

- Imagine him supercharging Peter's; he'd get his old mimicry back, probably.
- Imagine supercharged Claire; Elixer type ability (X-men)
- Supercharged Nathan; Spaceflight perhaps?

It'd be pretty funny, and a logical topic, actually.
That might be a future one for me. "What would the results be for a supercharged power?"

sounds good, but only the mimicry part would be restored, not the empathic part. and hed probs still have 2 touch the person hes copying to get the ability.

Thats fine, as long as he gets more than one ability.
It's super lame.

Story wise; why would someone with infinite powers be on the run? That's just the writers making it more interesting at the fans expense. As for him getting it back, wasn't it in Season One Peter could only hold one power till Claude forced it out of him. Personally, I think he's bsing himself with this power and it could come back at any time. Ando does seem like a more logical choice to regain the mimicry power back but I just think he has it in him but doesn't have the guts to try and hold the powers. This is a relatively new ability to Peter, he needs time to adapt to it.

No, in season 1 he just didnt know how to use his own ability. He theoretically had thousands of abilities already absorbed without even realising it, such as Angela's ability. And it IS a different ability. He is limited to one power at a time (unless he gets supercharged as i thought) so no, it couldnt just come back at any time. There are key diferences between his Empathic Mimicry and his Ability Mimicry

Right, you just said in season one he didn't know how to use his ability. He doesn't know how to use this one, or he is able to use it to an extent. No one knows how they could alter it so that he is able to take more. Everyone is hooked on the Ando theory when it could just be something else.

Peter could only use one power at a time until Claude, you know.
And could only use them around people who had abilities.

I'm sure I've made that point somewhere on the forums.
