I'm still unsure of all of this. There's so many ... I can hear too much usually. It's stopped for now... Thankfully?

My name is Jean Grey. ~~I'm a mutant~~ I am going to apologise if anyone is psionically sensitive and has been... dealing with me. I'm trying to keep things controlled, by nightmares are... common.

	Would it help for you to focus on one mind rather than letting the peripheral voices filter in? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	[Erik] phoenixally 2020-01-29 08:37 pm UTC (link)
	Potentially. Scott and I... had a bond. I could always feel Charles. They're not here and the space is... empty. Something has turned off my powers though. Even Phoenix is dormant. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Jean] pullindirection 2020-01-29 08:40 pm UTC (link)
	Well I am neither Scott or Charles but if it will help you are welcome to focus in on me provided you leave my private thoughts alone. I have noticed that myself. I am unable to control metal the same way as I always have since my first manifestation. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Erik] phoenixally 2020-01-29 08:48 pm UTC (link)
	That would-- That would likely help, yes. If you're sure... I understand you don't entirely like the concept of... invasion. I can promise I won't look for anything. I'm guessing this is an effect of Equilibriums doing? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Jean] pullindirection 2020-01-29 09:16 pm UTC (link)
	As long as that's clear then my mind is yours to focus on. I will assume so. It's full of these delightful surprises it seems. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Erik] phoenixally 2020-01-29 09:34 pm UTC (link)
	Thank you, this... it means a lot that you’d grant me this. If you ever change your mind, I will understand. Dogs and... an escape room? Now power negating. I’m not sure how that would help anyone fight an unknown enemy. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Jean] pullindirection 2020-01-31 10:40 pm UTC (link)
	I will be sure to tell you if I change my mind. I have no idea either. I suppose it makes sense to the Powers That Be. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Erik] phoenixally 2020-01-31 11:19 pm UTC (link)
	A lot of this feels very complicated and needlessly so in some cases. I can’t see you as not being on my side anymore. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Nightmares are never easy to deal with. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	phoenixally 2020-01-29 09:47 pm UTC (link)
	They’re not. I’m only hoping I can rest a while for now... without intrusions. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	One can hope. ~~Mine haven't~~ I'm Wanda Maximoff. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I'm not overly used to hope. It's nice to meet you. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	witchmaximoff 2020-01-29 10:55 pm UTC (link)
	We have that in common. Nice to meet you. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I get the feeling that many people here haven't had easy lives. Have you been here long? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	witchmaximoff 2020-01-30 12:36 am UTC (link)
	You're right, many of us have had difficulties at one point or another. ~~Or constant~~ Nearly two months. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	phoenixally 2020-01-30 10:41 am UTC (link)
	That's a fair time. Is it always so... odd? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	witchmaximoff 2020-01-30 09:22 pm UTC (link)
	A bit, yes. I'm still getting used to it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	phoenixally 2020-02-01 12:24 am UTC (link)
	I wonder if getting used to it would be bad or good. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	My shields are good enough that I can keep most things out, so you've not bothered me. Then I was never quite as telepathic or empathic as my twin. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	phoenixally 2020-01-31 11:15 pm UTC (link)
	Sometimes not being as strong is a perk. Please feel free to tell me if that changes. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	temperedsteel 2020-02-01 03:26 pm UTC (link)
	Yeah, my strength is in other areas. Although, I'm feeling a bit blind right now, without the Force to guide me. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	What do you mean by psionc waves? I work with metahumans at home and I had powers myself at one time so I'm curious. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Jean/Cisco phoenixally 2020-02-01 12:16 am UTC (link)
	I’m telepathic, but it’s deeper than that. I’m sensitive to most psionic forces. What do you mean had powers? You don’t any more? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Jean/Cisco ramonnoodles 2020-02-01 12:20 am UTC (link)
	I could "vibe" objects. I could touch something and get a vision of the future or where they were. I could also open portals between different versions of Earth in my home world. My friend and co-worker developed a cure and I took it. Sometimes I wish I hadn't. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Jean/Cisco phoenixally 2020-02-01 12:23 am UTC (link)
	That sounds.... In my world, we’re called mutants. And there isn’t a cure. It’s a genetic trait, we’re born like this and there... there’s nothing wrong that needs curing. I can’t imagine not having my powers, even when they aren’t exactly easy. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Meta-humans were formed in my world by being exposed to something called dark matter. Some of us were exposed when there was an explosion of a reactor.....that's the best thing I can describe it as. Others were exposed in an accident that another meta-human set up.

As far as I know, it's not genetic although it does alter DNA ~~but Nora, I don't know~~. People didn' t know how to control their powers and there were plenty of scared people which is why a cure was developed. I wanted to live a normal life without having to explain myself to everyone who ddin't understand but I see now that it doesn't matter. I wish I could take it back.

	Sometimes losing things makes you appreciate them more. I can see why going back to ‘normal’ would seem appealing. If you hadn’t been that way your whole life. Sometimes ‘normal’ is just too plain though? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Jean/Cisco ramonnoodles 2020-02-01 12:35 am UTC (link)
	I agree. At least I could help people with what I could do. I still can with my work but I wonder if I should have given myself more of a chance to use my powers. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Jean/Cisco phoenixally 2020-02-01 12:37 am UTC (link)
	I guess the best you can do is focus on what you can accomplish. Or see if someone can cause another explosion of dark matter. I’m mostly joking about that. It’s probably really dangerous. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Jean/Cisco ramonnoodles 2020-02-01 12:40 am UTC (link)
	I work with tech, there might be something I could do to help you with your nightmares. I don't know but we could see. It is dangerous, I hope we don't have an explosion here. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Jean/Cisco phoenixally 2020-02-01 12:45 am UTC (link)
	They're mostly power related. I have to stop myself from skimming peoples consciousnesses at night while I’m sleeping. Things slip in. I might have a focus that will help. Hopefully at least. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Jean/Cisco ramonnoodles 2020-02-01 12:52 am UTC (link)
	Hopefully it will. That's got to be tough. (Reply to this) (Parent)
