It's night half the time, and I'll be really visible if I'm glowing whether I want to be or not. So, definitely the second one. Prolonged water contact in a visible place is easier to avoid, if needed.
I plan to re-enact Gulliver pulling along the Lilliputian armada.
Wear opaque clothes
Ah shit, why didn't I think of that?
You would have to cover everything including your face, though, and that can get you funny looks in a different way.
Ski mask and sun glasses ;) since you need it sitting dark night, it didn't matter much, how it looks. Reminds me in the movie "Hollow Man"
Take a shower and destroy your house. I'm going for glowing.
If it's toy dino-speed, you'll be significantly taller after a longer shower, but not giant, and nothing will break. If I actually do the thing from the Spongebob opening on contact with water, I'd reconsider.
But imagine that you get stuck in a water pipe or wedged somewhere in a rain storm. Glowing is annoying but not nearly as bad as potentially drowning because your car crashed into a lake and you can no longer escape through the window.
I feel like those situations are already life-threatening to some degree, so I'll take my chances.
I'd assume growth over the course of just exiting a car wouldn't be too significant.
What
is this 'glow in the dark' like i'm radioactive and constantly glow a little bit, or is this 'glow in the dark' like i absorb a little bit of light and slowly re-emit it, so if i wait long enough in darkness i'll stop glowing?
You constantly glow with a dim yellow-green light, just bright enough to read in
Is it only my skin or, like, the inside of my eyelids too?
Just the outside of your body
Fun fact, we already glow in the dark, just not in a way we can see.
Bigger when wet would be kinda neat, but if it's based off of toy dinosaurs then the glow doesn't last all night. So I can take the glow and use it for sick pranks and cosplays or whatever. Be like alien Mr Burns.
Sex would be weird, but probably a good kind. Until it's painful.
You'd basically be a dog.
I like glow in the dark stuff, but I also like to be sneaky, so...idk. Conflicted.
I will bathe in the ocean and at long last fulfill my ambition of punching mother gia in the face.
you guys are smoking some strong stuff lol
"Ha ha ha, let's throw a bucket of water on this nerd!"
"Don't make me wet. You wouldn't like me when I'm wet."
sounds like a she hulk porn lol
Gets bigger but not any heavier or stronger
Fuck you, I'm doing both and glowing harder the bigger I get.
There we go, Halloween sorted.
I guess the grow bigger in the water thing because I can't imagine how hard it would be to fall asleep if I'm glowing.
How bright would I glow? Enough to read by?
Yeah, like a dim yellowish greenish light that you can just about read by
The second sounds like it has far more room for stupid bullshit, so that one
Do you grow to a maximum size in water? Or do you just keep growing the longer you stay in contact with water? If the latter then I think glowing in the dark is the less inconvenient option.
Yes, to a maximum size about 3 times your regular size.
Then it would still be less inconvenient to glow in the dark since showering would become a real problem.
It does say slowly, we really need more information about the rates at which you grow and shrink. Still I think the growing in water thing at least seems to have some potential positives whereas glow in the dark is just annoying.
I assume hyper-stretchy clothing isn't a reality yet? Getting caught in a rain storm would be inconvenient. I think I would still go with water growing. I need near complete darkness to sleep. And glowing skin would be hella annoying in a movie theater.
Wait, how do I drink water? Get slightly bigger then shrink back?
Would the insides of my eyelids glow? Cause fuck that if that’s the case.
No, only the outside of your body
"You look a little small. Are you drinking enough water?"
If I put part of me in say a glass of water then would it just be the part in the glass that slowly grew and how fast and how much.
Like a thimble of water?
