... so this is what it's like to touch stuff and not get feedback from it.

huh.

[[OOC: For those unfamiliar with Bridge's canon, he has psychic powers that are focused through his hands. He constanly wears gloves to control/dampen them, and is normally unable to touch things with his bare hands without getting a barrage of sensory feedback-

You don't normally touch things?

...I'm sorry, I'm just not sure I quite understand.

[handy_psychic]

I normally only touch things when I have my gloves on. I have psychic powers that are focused through my hands, and the gloves dampen them. Otherwise if I touch people or things, I see flashes of where they've been recently.

[weaver_girl]

Right, I understand now. That's handy, and considerate of you, of course. The gloves, I mean.

It seems everyone's finding something wrong with their skills today?

[handy_psychic]

It's also for my protection as much as anything... I'm not sure how I could function otherwise. But yeah, I hate using that on people without their permission.

Looks like it. Except some people have weird powers, so... hmm.

Are you alright, sir?

[handy_psychic]

Yup! Just without my powers, that's all.

[gene_driver]

I was unaware of your special ability, but it sounds helpful in certain situations.

[handy_psychic]

It really is. It helps fix things a lot, 'cause I can occasionally see what they looked like whole, or at least spot where problems are...
