He laughed a bit, "Really...?" He asked lamely, placing a hand on her shoulder to steady himself. "I don't think that's really a complement you know...!" He quirked an eyebrow, grinning right back at her with his natural Keller charms. Julian didn't exactly want to be known as the guy who click clacked around in Ms. Emma's heels, but he knew he had to learn for her, and was glad to have an excuse to spend time with Vanessa. "This is a one time thing, just so you know! Unless you're like into that sort of thing...?" It was a weird way to flirt back, but he was trying to be more easy-going about the whole 'walking in women's shoes' thing. "I'm only doing this for Frost... well, for as long as I'm stuck in her body, but I guess I could make an exception, for you." He snorted, he was being totally ridiculous. Julian looked down, it seemed so weird and definitely didn't feel like his body. He shouldn't have looked down, and began to teeter. Julian closed his eyes tightly and his hand gripped against Vanessa's shoulder. "I got this." He laughed, unsure if he really did anymore, and wasn't sure why he was being so adamant about it. "Alright, let's see if I can do this."
And although he took tentative steps forward, his thoughts were now preoccupied on other things. 'Let's see if I can just...' He truly didn't know the first thing about mind reading, but while Vanessa was occupied on making sure he didn't fall, he focused on that white noise in his head. He could hear something in the distance, voices it sounded like, and he pushed towards them. Julian closed his eyes to help him concentrate, placing a hand to his head, helping him hone in on what he was listening for. "Dizzy..." he murmured, as a way of justifying the action. He shuddered a bit, feeling a different kind of energy envelop him altogether, and something warm flooded his mind. He didn't exactly know what was going on, but he heard voices all around his head, a mix of his own, and he could also hear Vanessa physically talking, too. The whole thing was a messy orchestra in his head, and he seemed to be standing in the middle of it. Julian let out a shaky breath, trying to relax. He wasn't very good at this, so he couldn't visualize anything or manifest the thoughts in any way, nor create an astral realm to travel upon. He didn't even know those types of things could be done, let alone where to begin. It was all darkness, but he listened for the voice, and a very distinctive feeling.
The cacophony of sounds and voices finally settled down, he managed to tune out Vanessa and quell his own thoughts. Julian opened his mind and found Vanessa's thoughts pushing into his head. He began listening and following her metaphorical train of thought. While he was trying to get his bearings, he wondered if Ness thought he looked hot in heels, and almost instantly he seemed to know the answer. Which was 'not particularly' (for inquiring minds) as they were neither here nor there for her. Hm! He would have thought himself to look pretty kickin' - in Frost's body, at least. Then he wondered how he did that. The whole finding information thing.
The more he thought about the answers he wanted, the more they started to come to him. He was only able to skim the surface though, but found that Vanessa had truly adored him and... holy sweet baby jesus... missed making out with him?! "Heh," He commented aloud, although had no idea what he might have been replying to. He couldn't blame Ness for missing something so good, he was the Keller! He missed it too, even wanted to take everything a step further, but didn't want to make things weird, or hurt Sofia. He pushed further, discovering that ... oh... his shoulders hunched, suddenly feeling slightly crestfallen. She had fears of ruining their friendship too, every time they kissed. He wanted to tell her things didn't have to be weird, he wanted to reassure her - reassure himself - that what they were doing was okay. "You know, I don't think it would be weird! We don't have to make it weird." He started speaking, "I feel the sa-" Julian's eyes snapped open, abruptly pulling himself out of her mind. He started to physically reel back and teeter. "Oh shit!"
