Thoughtseize instructs the caster, "you choose a nonland card" from the targeted players hand. It doesn't say "you may choose."
Does this mean that the caster must choose a card from the targeted player's hand if there is a legal choice? Further, if Thoughtseize gets hit by Misdirection targeting the caster instead, must the caster then choose a card from his/her own hand if there is a legal choice?
Sorry if this is obvious--I just want to be clear. Thanks.

A key with Misdirection and Thoughtsieze is that it says reveal and not look at - if an effect requires you to choose a card in a non-revealed hidden zone and has a restriction (like "nonland"), you don't have to choose anything.
Then again, I don't think they print discard spells with "look at" anymore.

But it involves... {checks archives} Nature's Revolt, Opalescence, two Unstable Shapeshifters (one of which started as a Doppelganger), a Tide, an animated land, a creature with Fading, a Silver Wyvern, some way to get a creature into play in response to stuff, some way to get a land into play in response to stuff (a different land from the animated land), and one heck of a Rube Goldberg timing diagram.”
