Third ☂ Text

Many of you seem to be unhappy.

We don't all necessarily want you to be happy, but acceptance and adaptation to your situation would be a start. The only question that remains is: how?

It is clear to us that your species resolves many issues through communication. Unfortunately, none of us understand the human psyche as clearly as others of your species, and so I leave it to you to communicate with and to help one another.

You may consider this post an open forum in which you can discuss what's been bothering you. In turn, I will conceal your identities, so that you may help one another without preconceived biases. If you'd like to reveal yourselves to one another, the option is there, but unnecessary.

Heal. Recover.

I'll leave you to it.

No, I'm getting that.

Nice to talk about anon though? Get it off your chest?

it's helping a bit
i might tell the people i know well i guess
i'm just not used to it

Trusting people with things like that is hard. At least where I'm from, and sounds like where you're from too.

If I was your friend, I'd be flattered to be told. For whatever that's worth.

thanks
i appreciate that

and yeah it can be really hard to trust people
especially when your superpowers let you know more about them than
well
than most people know about people

kind of pisses people off, in my experience

Kinda sounds like a them problem not a you problem, doesn't it?

You psychic?

[She doesn't actually think that. At least, there's not enough information yet to make a real guess.

But sometimes suggesting an answer works better than asking a question straightforward.]

That might make some people uncomfortable.

it usually becomes a 'why didn't you say something sooner?' problem

i'm not psychic
but i still make people pretty uncomfortable

You know that's the kind of question people ask when they're not really looking for an answer. Or an argument.

It's like "what do you want me to say?"

It means they're frustrated. They weren't prepared for information and they need some time to process.

fair enough

i just don't want it to cost me any friendships here

it was hard enough holding onto it back home

If it's hard holding back from your friends here, it's not gong to get easier waiting.

You don't have to tell everyone.

But here? Tell people whatever you want. No one's gonna drag you off to a lab or throw you in a cell for it.

there is that at least
worst case they get mad and ignore me for a while, huh?
it's a small cave after all

Probably?

I can't say for sure, but I can say that if you have a friend who can't get over that with a little time and space has other issues going on.

fair enough
at least lying for a couple months isn't as bad as last time

No. I'd say that's a fairly reasonable amount of time to sit on secret superpowers.

thankfully it sounds like people here are understanding
it's a nice change from back home

[ Back home was totally your fault, Matt. ]

What's a little super strength or healing when you're trapped in a monster filled cave, and seems like half the people here aren't even human.

Whereas it sounds like superpowers aren't all that normal back home?

fair enough
and yeah, it kind of isn't a normal
at all

Probably not going to get easier, either.

Just a guess.
