Iskaulit Mingle - Problems with Psychics

[notzubats]

Who: Anyone on the Iskaulit!
Broadcast: If you'd like?!
Action: Iskaulit!
When: Today, as Sora's augment glitch starts.

[It's your average day on the Iskaulit. Absolutely nothing seems out of place initially, but without any warning- you might find yourself or your friends experiencing some problems. What's up on that?

In other words, it's an Iskaulit mingle with a twist! Come on in everyone! You don't need to interact with Sora to have it effect you, so feel free to start your own threadstarter! Or talk to Sora, that's cool too. ]

Well, kind of? It depends on what the walls are made out of. But like. You can see heat signatures, and depending on the setup, other things on that spectrum? So you can like see people behind walls.

[exothermia]

Heat signatures... I think maybe that's what I'm seeing now. [It would explain why Wrath is lit up so much brighter than everything else.]

[pain_train]

If I look really bright, like in yellows and whites overlaid on the normal color scheme, probably. It's a... useful function for a lot of reasons. Um. But probably not so much here.

[exothermia]

It's like staring at the sun.

[pain_train]

Um. At least you can tell people they look hot?

[NOT HELPING, WRATH.]

[exothermia]

I don't routinely do that and I won't be starting now.

[pain_train]

Trying new things can be fun?

[Still not helping. Other than trying to distract them both from how fucking weird everything is.]

We should go find a window. Looking out into space is cool. And there's not all that heat out there.

[exothermia]

All right. You'll have to lead, though.

[pain_train]

Okay!

[She's still got a hold on his hand - she hadn't relinquished it - so it's easy to change her grip a little bit and lead him toward the exterior of the ship. She knows the way anyway, but she can also feel it now, less and less metal in front of them as they move outward.

It's... weird. But she's starting to like it. And it's better to not get use to it, though, since she knows this will go away.]

You might be able to see the radio waves and stuff out the window...

[exothermia]

[He turns to look... and he does see something, though it's hard to make sense of what it is. It does look a bit like waves, lines upon lines of them.]

Do you really see this constantly? [He's certain he's getting a headache.]

[pain_train]

Well, just out of my one eye, since I don't have a battle computer any more. But if there's like too much feedback, I can turn it off at least.

...I don't really, though. Because stuff looks flat without it, and I feel like. Um. Like someone can sneak up on me better if I don't have my HUD.

[exothermia]

I suppose the absence of anything you're used to having would feel wrong.

[pain_train]

Yeah, it's kind of... what normal is for you.

Though sometimes you find out a new normal that's way better.

Um. Though I'm not saying that's how it is right now.

[exothermia]

Definitely not. This is probably temporary.

[pain_train]

It'll be a relief to be just me again. [She looks out the window too.] I guess space still looks cool though. Just in a different way.

[exothermia]

[It's odd to think of how his normal perception of space looks different to Wrath... but by turning his head to look out the window, he's hit with the same impression from the other side.]

Very different.

wrap :)

[pain_train]

[She smiles.]

All those transmissions are like the stars talking to each other. I heard that in a vid once.
