finishing up the app for exitvoid

[nolonger]

So. Let me get this straight. You want me on a ship, in the middle of no where, with everyone's fears just ready to leap out and get them? Not to mention a good couple of people that probably want me dead, again? And expect me to be ecstatic about that?

Yeah, I've got two words for you: fuck, no. That stupid-- test drive or whatever should have been plenty to get your kicks.

[...yeah, you know that's not going to work, right, Daniel?]

Tch. Figures.

Whatever. It's not going to slow me down. Nothing's going to slow me down. So, fine, bring it. But I swear to fucking god, if anyone else does call me kazak again, I'm going to break their faces in.

[Hey look Daniel this girl is blindfolded! But she doesn't seem to be doing anything about it so it's probably intentional.]

What does that mean?

[nolonger]

[.....uh.... there something wrong with you, lady?]

Does what mean? [He knows, but, yeah...]

[keeping]

[She raises her eyebrows. It's amazing how well someone can communicate a look when wearing a blindfold. She's had practice.]

The one you're so upset about.

[nolonger]

[WOW. RUDE. Whatever, lady, you asked.]

Easiest way to get under my skin, that's what it means. [And that's all your getting, okay?] What's it to you?

[keeping]

I was just curious, since of everything you talked about that was the one thing you were most prone to violence over.

[nolonger]

The more you know.

[Woops. Was that supposed to be kind of sing-song?]

--so. Tit-for-tat, if you don't mind. What's with the blindfold? I'm gonna take vampire out of the question. You ain't exactly lighting up the room, or catching on fire...

[keeping]

[She smiles.]

Vampire? No. It's... actually a bit complicated.

Essentially, it dulls my powers so I'm not listening in to everyone's thoughts all the time.

[Or accidentally killing people.]

[nolonger]

Mind-reading through your eyes?

Makes about as much sense as anything else, but sure, I'll buy.

[keeping]

Not exactly, but that's close enough. It's not just the eyes.

[She pulls up the blindfold for a moment. Her eyes are solidly black, and around them twist black and white swirls and whorls like intricate tattoos. She pulls it back down after a moment.]

It's more about my connection to the world.
