Precognative Dreaming is different from the Precognition that was once held by Isaac Mendez	None	+ Angela dosen't paint the future, she mearly sees it. - Isaac saw the future as well, he simply chose to paint what he saw while doing it. + Precogs such as Isaac, Peter, Sylar, and Usutu (and Matt, on one occasion) have always had their eyes turn white when they activated their ability. We have not seen Angela's eyes when she uses her power, obviously because she is sleeping, but we have seen Peter's, and they are completely normal.
Precognitive Dreaming is not a literal vision of the future, just a interpretive foreshadowing of what's to come.	None.	+ Peters did explode, but not the way he foresaw it. + All of the characters that appeared in the vision, were at Kirby Plaza. Yet they weren't in the same manner as they where in the vision (i.e. different actions, clothes, positions, ect.) + Nathan stood closest to Peter and was incenerated in the vision, in reality, he was closest to Peter, as he flew him away and he got horribly burned.
With experience, the user of this ability can see what will be and what could have been	None.	+ Angela knew that Future Peter already changed his future to an alternate one - She also said quite clearly "the only future I've seen is the one caused by your being here."
Precognitive dreaming isn't the ability, it's a side effect of always having a feeling of what the future is going to be like.	None.	+ Angela seems to have a pretty good grasp on what the future is like and how it will be affected; it's hard to believe that having one or two somewhat vague dreams every so often would have good grasp on what the future would be like. • Angela has had the ability for many years and likely has much experience in interpreting her dreams.
