[There are the sounds of a scuffle the moment the feed begins---a man's frightened yelp, followed by the sound of something being sliced (but it sounds like it's just fabric being torn) and Beatrice's typical menacing chuckling.  Is she up to trouble again?

Is it?

[A curious-sounding "hm!"]

How so?

Is that not boring, however? Imagination is certainly boundless, yes, but only to a certain degree, after all.

You know what, lady? You try having the worst fears of everyone in a fifty foot radius buzzing around in your head all day, and you tell me how much you like it, alright?

Fear is a primal instinct, boy. And it isn't only limited to humans.

Human fears are quite basic. While I certainly cannot hear the fears of people in my mind, my powers are certainly similar in that they feed off of it.

So there's really no need to complain. You can always build up your will to block out the noise. The human mind is a complex thing, in spite of all the basic impulses running through it much of the time.

If I could block out the noise, there wouldn't be a problem. Don't patronize me, lady. You don't know me.

I'm not patronizing you---I already have a student under my wing. I'm merely giving you advice.

Keep it. Nobody asked for advice.

Hoh! Impertinence and defiance breed only failure, child. Wallow in your own self-hatred, and your ability will eat you alive in the end.

Whatever. Don't piss me off. You don't know what you're dealing with.

There's not much you can do over the communicator, little boy.

[A harsh laugh.]

Still---they're your powers, not mine. Do as you please with them; deal with them as you see fit. We'll see where it gets you in the end. Fuhahahahahahahaaaaa...!
