Differences Between Mutations
So my Giant Masterpost of Mutations has gained some traction, and because I'm a total nerd I'd like to talk about why certain mutations are categorized as their own thing, why some mutations are considered sub-sects of another, and why some mutations aren't differentiated.
Why isn't Reicinokinesis (the ability to self-combust and then reconstruct one's self) not considered a sub-category of Regenerative Healing?
While you could of course categorize it under Regenerative Healing, the reason I didn't is because the focus with Reicinokinesis is more on the blowing up part. With healing, it's not so much what is done to you as how your body reacts, while in this case it's your body literally combusting and reassembling.
Why aren't Photokinesis or Magnekinesis listed as sub categories of Electromagnekinesis?
Technically neither magnekinesis nor photokinesis are represented on the electromagnetic spectrum ("but Iri" i hear you say, "isn't photokinesis control over the visible light spectrum?" well, im so glad you asked, imaginary person. we used to think it was! but studies show photokinetics actually draw from heat, UV light, and the visible light spectrum when using their mutation!) so I count them as seperate. But they do function similarly.
What is the difference between Bio-Picnokinesis (also known as Intagiblity) and Picnokinesis?
Intangiblity is focused soley on organic matter, while picnokinesis either incorporates both organic and inorganic, or simply inorganic matter.
Why isn't Inclinkinesis (shape-shifting) seperated into animal and humanoid categories?
Imma be real with you: I do not have a good answer for this. For some reason we usually just lump all shapeshifters together. Why? Idk ask Hank McCoy bro
Why are Vitakinesis, Toxikinesis, and Nosokinesis all seperate categories? Aren't they basically the same thing?
This is similar to the whole Reicinokinesis/Regen Healing thing. It's all about where you place your focus. So while a vitakinetic can cause someone to become sick, they do it by decreasing/disrupting life systems, while a nosokinetic would be interacting specifically with the processes that make someone sick (disease, etc). Likewise with toxikinetics vs. nosokinetics. It's less about the end result and more about how they got there.
Aren't all psonic (e.g Hypnokinesis, Mnemokinesis, Oneirokinesis, etc) a form of telepathy?
I mean....yes? Kinda? I would say the reason for the difference is telepathy is thought of (heh) as manipulate of conscious thought, while other psonic mutations manipulate different brain functions. Also the fact that most mutants with these mutations wouldn't be thrilled to be called knock-off telepaths lol
Are there specific kinds of atmokinesis?
To put it simply: yes! True weather-specific atmokinesis is fairly rare; most people who find they can only control rain or tornados for example find that with practice that control extends to all weather phenomena. But there are definitely mutants who can manipulate certain kinds of weather exclusively.

CONFETTI! - Barnum x Carlyle (The Greatest Showman) - Sequel to Dorms of Bio Warfare
This is for @picnokinesis, who is not satisfied with exploding rotting sheep’s brains and demands diseased limbs. Bring on the confetti.
The day had come. High school graduation. No one was sure who was more happy, the students, or the staff and faculty.
Two years ago, the Bakers and the Dozens were flinging mouldy sandwiches and stuffing the ceilings with used feminine products. Now, it was time for the real world. Or so everyone hoped.
You would think as the boys got older, the “pranks” would descale, or disappear completely. Oh how they wished. Admittedly, there hadn’t been many pranks the last few weeks, but they just brushed it off, surely it was nothing. Surely… right??? 
It was half-way through Headmaster Krooner’s farewell speech - Headmistress Hallett was offered a job in a school that didn’t have Phillip Carlyle or Phineas Barnum - when the students began to notice the police officers standing at the back of the hall. Why were they here? What were they doing? What happened? Who’s in trouble? Ignoring the not-so-silent whispering, Headmaster Krooner soldiered on.
Finally, the last student had walked across the stage, and it was time to celebrate the departure of the seniors. Along the walls of the hall were confetti cannons, just waiting to go off.
3!
2!
1!
And with a shout of Freedom!, the cannons exploded, showering everyone in the hall with confetti. Just not the type of confetti they were expecting.
Earlier that morning, the local police had been called down to the town morgue. The rather frantic, hurried message from the mortician had the officers confused, and a little worried. It was a small town, a quiet town. The local traffic consisted of a few old ladies gossiping on a street corner, and on weekends, the boys from the old school up the hill.
Oh.
Oh.
With a deep, regretful sigh, the officers pulled straws on who would have to deal with the Baker's Dozen’s latest prank. When the two who lucked out finally arrived, however, they decided that they would need everyone.
“So tell me who’s missing again?”
“Everyone!”
The exasperated sigh from the officer, and a shared look between his partner, he asked the frantic mortician again. “Who is missing, exactly?”
Scuttling over to his desk, the frazzled mortician opened the top draw of his desk and pulled out a clipboard. “Mr. and Mrs. Blaker - they passed yesterday from the shingles, god bless them and their 80 year-old hearts. Ms. Cecil - she passed, uh, about 2 weeks ago from, uh, Gonorrhea. Then there was a Jane Doe, some sort of hitchhiker I think, found dead 4 days ago with her head smashed in. Lastly was, uh, Father Bennett, found dead in his bed just the other day, death wasn’t natural I can tell you that.”
Phillip and Phineas were in for it now. Five stolen bodies and a possible murder. These boys didn’t do things in halves. What was the expression kids used nowadays? Go hard or go home.
While the shredded body-parts showered down around them, Phillip and Phineas could not be happier. 12 years of school were over, and they were never looking back. Ignoring their screaming cohorts, as they were covered in blood and bone, their lips met one final time. They knew there was no way they were walking out of there free.
All they wanted, was to go out with a bang.
