[ The castle can be a happening place, even on more mundane days. This log is for random interactions over the course of the first half of the month.    Because not everyone is into parties, ok.

You are encouraged to start your own threads and tag around, and feel free to threadjack into any on-going threads that aren't specified as 'closed' in the subject lines since people can enter into rooms even in the middle of what's going on. WE ARE BIG ON THREAD-JACKING HERE. You can also specify 'single thread', meaning you want only one response for all participants, rather than multi-thread, where a number of different scenes/threads can be done as replies to the top prompt.]

No. There wasn't — as far as I know, there wasn't even magic where I came from. Or psionics. Or anything. The closest thing was me. ... I'm, um, I guess you would consider me an empath. [m a y b e ...??? it will never get less weird saying that. but it's so much easier saying that than explaining the fucked up trauma center that is his mind.]

Empathic abilities can mean a great many things. Just what sort did you possess?

I'm not sure if it's an ability, or just [he sounds a lil bitter here, definitely direct quoting someone else] a unique cocktail of personality disorders and neuroses that makes me a highly skilled profiler. That's what I did, back home. What I still do to a degree, for Wynn. [just in case she forgot his kyp briefing i guess??] I can get into other people's heads, start thinking like them, make leaps and deductions you can't make with logic. I can't block it out or turn it off.

[Helen once knew another talented profiler. Strangely, his name was also Will. BUT SHE DOESN'T REMEMBER HIM. So it's just funny to me. Haha so funny.]

I imagine that can become frustrating at times. A bit like seeing the world through a kaleidoscope, seeing too many angles at once to be able to focus on any one thing.

It can be. Like a kaleidoscope. Or, worse, sometimes I get stuck on one angle. One that ... isn't my own.

[personal profile] daredtobelieve 2014-10-12 08:33 pm (UTC)(link)
And what's that like? [She's not trying to grill him for information, but wow this is fascinating to her.]

Talking to shadows suspended on dust.

[personal profile] daredtobelieve 2014-10-17 01:16 am (UTC)(link)
Quite poetic. [Which she appreciates, but it doesn't exactly help her. The woman deals better in terms of science.] Have you had any of these episodes lately?
mydesigns: (pic#8419298)

[personal profile] mydesigns 2014-10-17 05:11 am (UTC)(link)
Not recently. Not since coming here. But I haven't had to be in the field the same way I used to when that started happening, either. It gets worse when I have to ... be close.

Seeing their work draws you in. [She says, not so much like a question, as just confirmation. But feel free to correct her if she's wrong.]

I assume Wynn is aware?
mydesigns: (pic#7880197)

[personal profile] mydesigns 2014-10-18 06:16 am (UTC)(link)
[he nods; a silent confirmation to both questions, actually.]

I feel like that's why he hasn't put me on a mission yet. Not really, not out in the field. Maybe he doesn't think I could handle it.

[which isn't exactly a complaint — he appreciates wynn showing more concern than jack crawford, okay, but it still makes him feel kind of shitty about himself. like he should be stronger, more capable.]
daredtobelieve: (pic#8394974)

[personal profile] daredtobelieve 2014-10-18 04:28 pm (UTC)(link)
It's possible that he has concerns. But it's obvious that he believes in your ability to overcome the obstacle if you've been brought into the fold. Perhaps it's a matter of learning from the right people from within the castle before you find yourself on a mission elsewhere.

[personal profile] mydesigns 2014-10-18 05:14 pm (UTC)(link)
Maybe. I've found other people like me here, talked with them. But I don't — I can't say that I feel changed by the experience.
daredtobelieve: (pic#2090095)

[personal profile] daredtobelieve 2014-10-18 08:33 pm (UTC)(link)
It may not be a matter about finding people like you, but about finding those who compliment you. Forgive me if I'm overstepping, but you don't seem like you're much for group activities.

[Nicest way to ever say that he looks like an anti social weirdo.]
mydesigns: (pic#8257602)

[personal profile] mydesigns 2014-10-20 07:00 pm (UTC)(link)
Not overstepping at all. You're right. I get uncomfortable around too many people.

[personal profile] daredtobelieve 2014-10-21 01:53 am (UTC)(link)
Missions can sometimes require long periods time in close quarters with your teammates. Perhaps Wynn is hoping to allow you more time to get acclimated before sending you out in the field.
mydesigns: (pic#7880185)

[personal profile] mydesigns 2014-10-21 04:46 am (UTC)(link)
Maybe. [he shrugs] I've tried not to think too much about it. There are more than enough things to keep me busy around here. When he wants to put me out there, he will. [like a fine china set.]
daredtobelieve: (Default)

[personal profile] daredtobelieve 2014-10-21 02:12 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, yes. There's certainly enough to keep anyone busy. The library alone could keep someone occupied for years, if they were inclined to that sort of thing.

[personal profile] mydesigns 2014-10-22 12:50 am (UTC)(link)
I'm more of an outdoors guy, actually, but I don't mind hitting the books every now and again.

[personal profile] daredtobelieve 2014-10-22 03:37 am (UTC)(link)
Ah, much more rare these days. [She seems pleased by this, even if she is the bookwormy type.] Any particular hobbies you enjoy?
mydesigns: (pic#8257607)

[personal profile] mydesigns 2014-10-22 07:03 pm (UTC)(link)
Fishing, mostly.
daredtobelieve: (pic#8394975)

[personal profile] daredtobelieve 2014-10-23 03:50 am (UTC)(link)
I can't say I've ever found myself particularly struck with the desire to take up the sport, but I do know that there are many who find that quite relaxing and enjoyable. Have you had the opportunity to do much fishing since you've been here?
mydesigns: (pic#7880176)

[personal profile] mydesigns 2014-10-23 04:23 am (UTC)(link)
Mhm. There's a pond near the castle grounds, I like to go fish there sometimes to clear my mind.
daredtobelieve: (pic#2090296)

[personal profile] daredtobelieve 2014-10-25 02:30 am (UTC)(link)
Something like a sanctuary for you, then. [lol inside joke for her teehee.] I'm glad you've found a place to calm your thoughts.
mydesigns: (pic#8419298)

[personal profile] mydesigns 2014-10-28 06:08 pm (UTC)(link)
So am I. Sometimes it's just .... too much. Everything gets to be too much.
