So... does Flaring Temper end up doing 2 damage to target creature or player?
Yes. But it also turbocharges your Grapeshot and Pyroclasm.
Probably easier to do it as "Flaring Temper deals 2 damage to target creature or player. Until end of turn, if a spell or ability you control would deal damage, it deals that much damage plus one instead". Gets rid of the ambiguity.
