[Mokuren is walking home from the general store with some seeds for the garden, but she stops suddenly in her tracks. She's crying.]

I'm alright. But I can't seem to stop crying. How strange.

a_gentle_boy March 5 2011, 22:43:13 UTC

[Lucas breathes a small sigh of relief and pulls Mokuren gently to the side. This is the easiest to fix.]

I'm so sorry about this. How do you feel . . . emotions, I mean? Are you sad or unhappy at all?

homesickness just happens when you haven't called your mom in a while, right? istheatmosphere March 5 2011, 22:56:55 UTC

This was your doing? [She doesn't seem angry, just surprised.] I'm not sad. [She wipes her eyes with her free hand.]

Homesickness doesn't exist in 3, actually! Although it's fine if you want to use it. a_gentle_boy March 5 2011, 23:02:57 UTC

I-It was an accident. And that's good. This shouldn't be much trouble to fix.

[The boy will gently take one of her hands in his, then reach up towards her face to try to touch it gently. 'Healing' is applied, slowly and deliberately . . . ]

((Up to you if it works!))

Nah, that's fine. I don't want to dump all Mokuren's issues concerning home on poor Lucas istheatmosphere March 5 2011, 23:18:11 UTC

[She kneels down so she can be at eye-level with him. Her tears soon dry up.] How do you do it? [She's confused and genuinely curious. Psychic powers existed in her society, but they didn't quite work like this]

OK, no problem. a_gentle_boy March 5 2011, 23:52:42 UTC

. . . It's a type of psychic manipulation. I don't really know how brains work, but the light messes with the way it works. I'm very sorry, again.

istheatmosphere March 6 2011, 01:03:57 UTC

Oh, sarches! Psychic powers don't work quite that way where I'm from.

There was no lasting harm done.

a_gentle_boy March 6 2011, 02:07:03 UTC

. . . Let me make sure.

[Lucas holds up a glowing hand again, concentrating to see if his PK Flash had done any further damage. A few moments later, he nods and the PSI dies away.]

istheatmosphere March 6 2011, 03:11:32 UTC

[She nods.] We call it Sarches power. It depends on the individual, but some people can fly, use telekinesis and telepathy, among other things. I had powers myself, but I lost them when I came here.

a_gentle_boy March 6 2011, 03:57:35 UTC

I guess that's fair, then. I can't do any of those things, although . . . I've never really tried, either. What kinds of powers do you have?

istheatmosphere March 6 2011, 04:14:08 UTC

Well, I could understand plants and animals. And when I sang, plants would grow. [And oh, she misses those abilities so much.]

a_gentle_boy March 6 2011, 04:35:56 UTC

. . .

[Lucas stares at her with something approaching reverence.]

That's amazing. Any sort of plants at all . . . ?

Sorry, ATP ate my brain istheatmosphere March 6 2011, 07:34:05 UTC

[Oh man, is she used to that expression or what. She was pretty much a religious icon back home, after all, precisely because of these powers of hers.] Yes, any kind. It's a little more difficult with animals because they're more complex organisms.

a_gentle_boy March 6 2011, 21:17:34 UTC

There are people who can make animals grow by singing?

istheatmosphere March 6 2011, 22:50:45 UTC

Oh, no. What I meant to say is I can commune with plants and animals, but I can only make plants grow.

Or I could, before I came here.

a_gentle_boy March 7 2011, 02:48:22 UTC

. . . Still, that's really something. There was another person here who had power over growing plants. I still have her flowers in my garden.
