am I loud and clear, or am I breaking up?
Who: Axel and anybody
Broadcast: Fleetwide Video
Action: Tourist kitchen if anybody wants
When: Thursday afternoon, 21May
[Axel looks caught somewhere between deep contemplation and outright indignation. He's also occasionally prodding at a shiny new eyebrow piercing he got on one of the waystations; it's his newest fidget, it seems.]
So is anybody else just dying to know whatever it is we shouldn't do no matter what? 'Cuz, I mean... I think that's a pretty important detail, and I personally would really like some clarification. Just to be safe, I've quarantined all the teriyaki anything on the Tourist.
[Actually, he took a page from Fenris' book and jettisoned it out the airlock. Can't be too careful.]
Has anybody's kitchen exploded or anything? Ugh, the teriyaki was the best flavor, too.

Would you believe me if I told you it was all an accident?
[ It really was, Axel. Seriously. A terrible, horrible accident, but an accident. ]
There's sensing thoughts and there is projecting thoughts. I can do both kinds - read a person's mind as well as send my own thoughts into theirs. If someone shares a similar gift we can speak in such a way. I only use it if I have permission though with those without such a gift, or if there is no other option in an emergency.

Must'a been quite the accident, to get the whole ball of wax like that.
[And then he frowns a bit, almost comically so, and brings his hands to cover his ears like that might stop his thoughts from being heard. He pulls them away then, when Vanyel says he never reads minds without permission, but he still looks a little unsettled.]
One mind-reader is weird enough... Trust me, you don't wanna hear my thoughts. Most of the time, I don't even wanna hear 'em.
[They usually involve him feeling like he's the worst of the worst for making all the mistakes he has, for lying to his friends, for making bad choices. Inside Axel's head is a tangled mess of self-deprecation and guilt complex; not exactly good reading material.]
no subject
[ He chuckles, not seeming offended. He understood the worry - he had had his own brain ransacked once by a dark wizard, and never wanted to have it done again. ]
Frankly, I don't want to hear anyone else's thoughts either. Not to mention such an invasion of privacy is completely unethical, and just... wrong. As I said, I only force my way in if there is a true cause - such as there not being any other way to communicate in an emergency over distance.
[ He could be there with you on guilt, Axel. Guilt for the death of his life-bonded, though recently he had found healing for that guilt he'd carried so long. ]
