First Edit

"That should do it, but just to be sure, I better plan what I want just in case."

  David thought as he picked up a paper and pen and began to write down everything he would edit if he was going to follow either route. If he followed his technology route, then what prompts would he put in to achieve maximum effect, and if he was following his biological route, then what abilities and how would he give them to himself?

  Hours passed with David just lying around his bed, thinking. Things would have been easier for him if only there were some books out there with such ability as a part of their plot or maybe a movie, but so far, he has found nothing. Either way, he still wrote down nearly three (3) pages worth of things to edit.

  Meanwhile, online, many people saw the post; after all, it was a public post and was posted on a platform that supported such content. Many saw it and, clueless of David's situation, immediately began to comment on their ideas. His writing group thought it was probably for a new book he was working on, so they helped too.

  Within a few hours, many of his posts had garnered hundreds of comments. Each person gave his or her reasons to defend their opinion; many others went under those comments to tell the person the flaws in their plans. After all, the internet has been known to love to correct others.

  By the morning hours, David had long since slept, but many people in many other countries had yet to sleep, and they still continued to comment. Some went as far as making plans for an entire year. The end point of it all was that David now had a large wealth of ideas to draw from.

11:27 AM

  David woke up feeling extremely refreshed. He knew he would surely wake up late, but it didn't matter; he didn't have anywhere to go; it was just him and his apartment. There was also nothing much to do since the plans for today only involved tidying up and then gaming.

"Oh yeah, chores!" he said, then immediately stood up to begin tidying up the small apartment.

He lived alone in his little apartment, so if the house was dirty, it was up to him to do something about it. The apartment in question wasn't actually dirty considering that the majority of the dirt was his laundry, and that would be what he would be doing for a few hours now since he didn't have a washing machine.

Two hours later, the apartment was clean again, his clothes were all washed and spread to dry, and he had finally cleaned up his desk, which included his computer, so he was feeling pretty good about himself. David smiled as he looked around the tidy apartment before jumping into the bathroom to tidy up in order not to be the only dirty thing in the room.

A few minutes later, he was clothed and ready for the day. Well, the day was already over since now he had to repeat the same procedures he had been going through for the past few weeks. David, without any hesitation, jumped on the bed to continue what he had been doing for the last few days: sleep.

"Hmm, this feels unnatural," David thought, then stood up from the bed and dragged its sheets to rumple it up and soon laid down back.

"Now that's more like it," he said as he relaxed into the bed and grabbed his pillow.

*Ding*

"Oh, that's true; now let's see what you guys have for me," David said as he picked up his phone and began going through the comments.

After reading for some time, he began to notice a pattern. Many people, just like him, preferred the technological route. Though their methods differed later on, many of them still chose to edit their phones, computers, or whatever was available at the moment in the first month.

"It's pretty obvious what I have to do then, but these are some really great ideas." David noted as he picked up his notebook from last night to write down all the ideas he found interesting.

"Hmm, I don't think losing my humanity is the way to go about this. Well, at least for now, but that is an interesting method," David thought when he came across a comment.

The user commented that he will edit a small pack of drugs into some sort of elixir or serum that grants Kryptonian powers or will give him Kherubim-like abilities. David appreciated the method of editing, but the kryptonian or kherubim transformation part he didn't appreciate for now. He will eventually, when he knows exactly what sort of event he will be dealing with.

Under said comment was a comment chastising the user on the fact that they could just create a drug to cure COVID. It was an excellent idea, but exactly how does he bring it out? COVID was a bad thing, but there were definitely some people in high places who benefited from it. He didn't have the ability to go against such people as yet, so that was out of the question.

"My phone it is then," David said as he picked up his phone and the book and began going through everything he had thought of the day before, and just the first line alone had given him ideas. Crazy and incredibly ridiculous ideas.

Seeing the familiar window, David tapped on it and immediately began editing. The main goal here was to edit the phone into a device with unparalleled processing power and unlimited storage that is basically indestructible. A device that would allow him to do as he liked.
