inner sense of self-preservation inherent within creatures in the animal kingdom; sense of right and wrong for human beings that seems to come naturally; natural
intuition to respond, sometimes suddenly, to
sensory input; initial
strong feelings experienced as new information is processed.
Example:
The lion is feared throughout the animal kingdom because of its
predatory instincts.
My senses aren't tingling at all -- my instincts have failed humanity!
Guy 1: My instincts tell me I should NOT be doing this, but I gotta be strong!
Guy 2: Dude, you're only bench-pressing like 45 pounds!

Aside from
the well written definition above, it is also the males instinct to quickly cover ones
gonads if
in danger.
Example:
As I walked to
math class, I saw a bird flying at mid body level, not taking any chances, I quickly covered my
gonads with one hand and quickly attempted to
play it off as if nothing had happened.

Form that allows you to subconsciously dodge even the
miniscule of things. Essentially, you're fully aware of your surroundings, like you have an eye with circumscopic (360) vision, as well as extremely advanced perception. It's
timed though, so eventually you'll
revert to your regular form and lose all the benefits.
Example:
Ultra Instinct: Imagine you
running away from your mom when she's trying to
whoop your ass for no good reason. That is, until you lose
UI and she begins to whip you like you've never been whipped before
