[What YOU doin', Thusia?]

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

[Sitting down with a sigh and pouring tea for himself.]

Ed is missing.

What??

I've searched for him all night.

I... I can use my powers to find him...

[Startled]

Your powers?

You didn't know?

[He shakes his head]

I'm a Prophet.

[Leaning forward]

Then help us, please.

Okay.

[Then suddenly quite serious.]

Don't freak out. This is normal. Okay? Don't freak out.

[Holding his breath]

Understood.

[She gets out her notebook and pencil and lays down on the floor. Her breathing gets heavy for a moment, then stops entirely. So does her heart.]

[This face.

Standing up and checking her vitals, touching as little as possible. :O She said that was normal, right? Damn, he is in a world of shapeshifting squidrats. That must be worth something.]

[She's out for nearly four minutes, and suddenly sits up straight, breathing, heart beating. She claps her hand over her mouth, looking nauseous.]

[Quickly and efficiently placing a glass of water in her hands]

I'm sorry...Is there anything I can do to make you feel better?

Fuck. Fuck. FUCK!!!

[It barely registers that she has water, she's too busy raging at Thusia for limiting her powers.]

[Gentlest voice]

...Didn't it work?

No... No... It's blocking me...

I'm sorry.

[Kind smile]

That was very impressive.

Heh. If you say so.

[nods]

Even if it didn't work, not many people can stop their hearts like that.

That's....just kind of a side-effect.

Isn't that harmful?

I'm dead, aren't I?

[That was meant to be a joke, and yet it comes out so much sadder.]

[Placing a hand over hers.]

You feel very alive to me.
