They were murdered by hell hounds?
How can that be possible?

[ In which Charlie takes a moment to reflect on how nothing in his life would seem possible to others who don't share his reality. He takes a deep breath. ]

I thought it was simply...evolution. But you would have me believe that myself and others like me were given our powers by demons?

[ It's a lot to take in. Go easy on him. ]

Much more likely than evolution. It doesn't mean there's anything wrong with you. Just be careful and don't sell your soul and you'll be fine. Oh, and you might want to keep a hex bag handy.

[ He'll spare the biogenetic speech and ramblings and go with the simple version. ] Evolution itself is a fact of nature, though I agree that without a catalyst this degree of advancement would be nearly impossible for probably several more centuries.

[ He looks very uncomfortable with his thoughts. ] I never would have thought the catalyst had a supernatural origin. Such things simply don't exist in reality...or at least, people don't know about them.

[hart_or_hand]

Teah, it does, at least to some degree. This, though, I can guarantee you is not simply evolution.

Oh, they definitely exist. But most people don't want to know. They come up with any other explanation they can, even if it makes no sense.

[prodigio]

People will always seek answers to what they do not understand. Not long ago people thought it was absurd to believe the Earth was round.

[He pauses.] Does this mean you can do things too? Special things?

[hart_or_hand]

[Lindsey has to smile at that.] They do. But they seem to prefer explanations that feel safer.

Of a sort. For me, it's a learned skill. And forget the mind reading.
