If you insist on continuing to call me evil, I may just feel compelled to show you up close and personal like just how freakin' evil I can be!

Iheard a rumor that said that any halo that you may have possessed was actually indeed stollan, and that is why it has to rest on the top of your horns to keep it there.
but that is just a rumor

Guys, I just had a new thought, inspired by Scott DeWar's directing me to threads where the discussion regards spell abilities in Pathfinder. Anyway, here it is:
It will be a new FEAT, available at 5th level and higher. By taking this feat, you become sort of a hybrid Wizard/Sorcerer. You still have a spell book where you can know, keep, and study an inifinite number of spells, but your spells per day just become SLOTS that can be filled spontaneously with any spells that you have PREPARED. You can still prepare the same number of spells as a regular wizard, but this gives you a little more flexibility in using the spells, because you can use that 1st level slot you planned for Comprehend Languages to cast another Magic Missile, if that Orc doesn't cooperate and die quickly enough.
So, instead just spells known and spells prepared, it becomes a Three-Tier System:
SPELLS KNOWN, SPELLS PREPARED, and SPELL SLOTS TO FILL SPONTANEOUSLY.
[credit for inspiring this idea goes to Scott DeWar, for getting me involved in the Pathfinder discussion threads where some ideas were being discussed that got my bain turning in this direction.

Thoughts?

No, rush, Pops. You might need to sleep on it first, and then mull it over when you take your geritol tomorrow morning. 
But, just in case my explanation was unclear before, let me try again:
Using this new feat, Wizards still prepare spells in the same way and in the same number that they did before. The difference is that prepared spells are not plugged in to specific spell slots. Thus, a wizard with 4 first level spell slots could prepare four different first level spells. Say, Magic Missile and three others. But, if this wizard runs into more combat than he planned for, he could use all four of his first level slots to cast Magic Missile. He wouldn't have to do this, but he would have the option.
Clear as mud?
ps-I'm open to suggestions about what to call this feat, too, btw

Well, I certainly love the idea of this feat and will aim to take it for Xavier, especially being an enchanter (either extremely useful, or useless, depending on enemy).
Perhaps Arcane Flexibility or Adaptability?
