5th Speculation: Information sought

[azrthmtrnznthos.livejournal.com]

So, from what I understand, Lavi and Sasuke are likely the best sources, but if anyone has any info, that would be helpful. I know there are places here rumored to be haunted, and then thare are places that are haunted. Does anyone know why? It's most likely related to why this place is the way it is anyways, but...I was wondering about more specific information.

See if there's anything that might be helpful in figuring out what happened.

It's "knowing the future", while clairevoyance is "seeing clearly" or "Farseeing"...so either can apply, but usually precognition is what's used.

[pencilpremonition]

Precog...nitive? A person who can see the future?

[Why are you so fascinated with this Becca.]

Are there many?

[azrthmtrnznthos.livejournal.com]

A lot of people who fake it, but it does exist. Depends on where you're from, really, as to what you believe.

[pencilpremonition]

I didn't know other people could--

[HAND OVER MOUTH]

...I'm guessing you'd rather not discuss this over the network. I'm in 402.

[Which is...kind of an invitation.]

[pencilpremonition]

I don't want to discuss it at all.

[Becca hangs up on her. But it's scarcely ten minutes later when there's a knock on the door.]

In-Person

[Raven is very passively projecting 'calm' and 'ease', as she opens the door. There isn't much in the apartment, but she's scavenged some cushions to flop on, on the floor at least, so feel free to sit.]

I'm guessing there aren't a lot of psychic people where you're from.

[pencilpremonition]

[Becca isn't sure why she's so at ease here, but perhaps she'll have to visit more often.]

There aren't any at all. Just phonies who scam people.

[azrthmtrnznthos.livejournal.com]

[Trust me, Raven could project creepy too, she just would rather you were at ease, since this is something you're obviously struggling there with.]

Probably anyone who has genuine gifts, hides 'em. Not entirely a bad idea, as people often fear what they don't get, and there are many who'd take advantage of the abilities in the wrong way.

[pencilpremonition]

Yeah... People would think I was crazy if I told anyone. Or the military would come and take me away and lock me up for science.

[azrthmtrnznthos.livejournal.com]

I don't think you're crazy. Where I'm from, meta abilities aren't uncommon. I think of the residents here, you wouldn't be unusual either.

[pencilpremonition]

It...doesn't matter now.

[azrthmtrnznthos.livejournal.com]

...why not?

[pencilpremonition]

She took it... I feel blind.

[azrthmtrnznthos.livejournal.com]

...ah...I'm...sorry. I've lost my powers before too, and it's a difficult thing to deal with.

[Not really much more she can say but that...]

[pencilpremonition]

What are your powers like?

[azrthmtrnznthos.livejournal.com]

Kind of varied, in some ways. I was raised in another dimension...so...

[Have a shrug.]

They resemble telekinesis, mostly. I can also levitate. I meditate though, daily, to keep myself centered.

[All true--we'll just ignore that it's not the whole story, as there's no need to go into that really.]

[pencilpremonition]

That's amazing... Does meditating really help you with them?

[azrthmtrnznthos.livejournal.com]

[Tricky question, that. Yes and no. ^^]

Meditating helps me which helps me deal with them.

[pencilpremonition]

Oh.

[azrthmtrnznthos.livejournal.com]

Did you have trouble with your abilities?

[pencilpremonition]

As much as I need them to function... I always hated them at the same time.

[azrthmtrnznthos.livejournal.com]

Understandable. There are times I hate mine too.

[Sometimes she hates the fact she was even born, believe her.]

[pencilpremonition]

Powers suck in general, I think.

[azrthmtrnznthos.livejournal.com]

Some of them, and sometimes. It's like...any ability that makes one different. Or even just a part of 'living', I suppose. Everyone has days when they hate something about themselves. It doesn't have to be a special ability out of the ordinary, to make someone unhappy about it.
