I have a super weird thing I'm trying to do with interfaces

First of all, I apologize for the incredibly vague nature of my question but I'm become obsessed with finding the "best" solution to every problem I encounter. I have

IPlayerAbility

IPlayerAbility

with an

Activate()

Activate()

method and I essentially want

Activate()

Activate()

to execute as if it is on the

PlayerController

PlayerController

object. I had it so that all of the actual body code that made up the logic of these abilities'

Activate()

Activate()

methods were actually just in methods on the

PlayerController

PlayerController

class. The

Activate()

Activate()

methods on these abilities simply called the appropriate method on the

PlayerController

PlayerController

to do what it needed to do. I then refactored it (because I really hated putting everyting in

PlayerController

PlayerController

) to have it so that every time

PlayerController

PlayerController

needed to activate an ability, it would pass itself into the method as such:

void Activate(PlayerController player)

void Activate(PlayerController player)

and then called in

PlayerController

PlayerController

as:

ability.Activate(this)

ability.Activate(this)

. But then when I put the logic into the activate method, I would CONSTATNTLY have to put something like

player.transform.position

player.transform.position

("player." before practically everything). Is there a better way to do what I'm trying to do? Something like having the logic for a function exist in the ability but have it called as if it is in the player controller? I doubt that would be the case, I just hope I'm getting my goal across. Any advice is appreciated! :)
