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.

yeah it gets worse the longer i wait
but it's hard to actually
tell people

my range goes for about a block or two, give or take
i can't help what i hear and i can tune it out sometimes but
sometimes stuff gets through
sound carries really well in a cave

seems like it would be annoying. you must hear a lot of things you'd rather not know.

and if they're your friends they'll understand why you waited to say something about it.

yeah the drawbacks kind of suck
i've gotten used to feeling like an interloper
as awful as that sounds

but you're probably right
at least the people who know me will probably understand
hopefully

it'd be different if you did it on purpose and used it against them.

you can't help what you happen to hear.

i've been this way for a while so i at least know where to draw the line

but it's hard for people to get it sometimes
i mean i understand
some things you can't really explain in words no matter how hard you try

I don't suppose your powers would let you show them instead of tell them?

nope, not really
there's not a lot of visual involved

Guess you'll just have to be talented with your words.

guess so
i'll start practicing now

with me?

don't know if you're a friend of mine or not
i should probably tell my friends before i explain it to anonymous strangers

Oh, right. I could be anybody. YOU could be anybody.

exactly
unless you're willing to tell me who you are?

I'll show you mine if you show me yours.

you're gonna have to go first
i'm the one with the secret superpowers here

Reasonable.

[ aaand there's a setting around here somewhere to reveal herself without actually announcing herself to the whole world. Cashmere switches it on when she finds it.]

Hope you're not disappointed.

pretty far from it, actually

I must seem really obvious now.

It explains a lot.

[ and yea, now it seems very obvious. ]

Wow.
You're more amazing than I thought you were..

I am blind, though
I just... have the rest of my senses to compensate for it

but I'm still having to listen to this whole post just to read it

You seem to manage it well. I've never almost had my ass kicked by someone who couldn't see me. Until you.

Too bad the computers voice isn't as nice as mine. Wink.

I can sense you pretty well. It's a lot easier to handle in person.

Sad, really. But I can't really complain when my powers let me do almost everything else just fine.

Sense me? Like what? Is it like when you get the feeling someone is watching you or behind you? Intuition? Smell?

[ omg can you smell her, Matt?? ]

Uh, yeah. I can't see, but the rest of my senses are really strong. I can even feel things like changes in water pressure or temperature.

[ That's not... weird, right? it's weird. ]

That's kind of what I meant when I said I was "eavesdropping" people.
It's kind of more than that.

So when my heart beats faster, you know it.
[ this is literally one of the coolest things she's ever learned about anyone, matt. you're going to get so many questions from now until forever. ]

Have you always had powers?

Yeah, exactly. I can hear it pretty clearly, even from far away if I focus.

[ He's really more used to people telling him that's creepy and invasive... ]

Got them when I was a kid. The same accident where I lost my sight, actually.
