chipperWelcome to the second of the Twelve Days of Hogswatch. I will be starting a new giveaway every day between now and January 6th (the day after my birthday). Each giveaway will have different rules, and a different deadline, although all prizes will be mailed on January 9th, because I am bad at going to the post office.
This giveaway is for a shiny new copy of Velveteen vs. The Multiverse, the second volume in the adventures of Velma "Velveteen" Martinez, crankiest superheroine this side of the Mississippi. This is going to be a random number drawing with a twist, because I am silly. So...
1. To enter, comment on this post.
2. If you are international, indicate both this and your willingness to pay postage.
3. Explain your superpower. What is it? How does it work? What are your strengths and weaknesses?
I will choose the winner at 1PM PST on Monday, December 30th, by randomly selecting two heroes and deciding the outcome of a fight. (Note: "my superpower is I can do anything" means you will inevitably be defeated by Squirrel Girl. That's what she's for. Remember that in the Velveteen-verse, cunning and treachery often defeats raw strength.)
Game on!

My superpower would be with animals.
It would make all animals friendly to me within reason. So if I were with a wild tiger for example it wouldn't attack me. If it were with a cat or a dog it would be all over me wanting hugs and pats.
It means I'm great at being giver of pats to all dogs and cats that I see. It also means that I can calm aggressive animals quickly with little fuss.
Its handy for my job as a vet nurse as I will never get scratched or bitten by the animals in my care and they will calm quickly with me in the area. They wont be really scared and will relax which will help with their healing.
The downside is that it's not really much help in a fight as I would rather not allow any animals come to harm so I would avoid the fighting.
