-So from what I understand reading about your semblance, if the user has a cold, the cold part of the semblance would trigger because that's what he feels even though that's not what's happening…unless you mean he would get the powers from increase temperature while getting the personality alteration from being cold?

-I'm not using it as an argument. I'm just saying, nothing needs to be changed, and while you asked me to change a few things in it to avoid confusion, only you so far has shown confusion about it. Which both doesn't persuade me to do it, and makes the request seem a little selfish.

-If you are cold, you will feel cold. If you are hot, you will feel hot. If you didn't feel cold when your body temperature is low, or hot when your body temperature is high, then something's simply not right.

It's simply like this: It's not "He is hot but feels cold so he receives cold effect". It's "He is cold, so he feels cold and receives cold effect". If he wasn't, if he felt hot when he should be cold, something's wrong in some way.

How cold/hot he feels in comparison to his actual body temperature is irrelevant. But of course, since how he feels would indirectly affect his body temperature, it would by extension end up possibly affecting the effect. In other words: His body temperature, not how he feels, determines the effect, but how he feels can affect his body temperature, and thus the effect.

Because one, say, may ignore the heat in a sunny day, thus wouldn't feel as hot when they should, and their body temperature remains at least warm instead of downright hot (speaking from experience). Of course, that only goes so far, but in not-extreme conditions it can happen like that.

-Again, Fevers, and by extension colds, mess things up. It's only natural and expected for it to end up messing up the Semblance as well due to the way it works. So let's say it makes it more random.
