So I'm curious... Curious by nature, which is why I was likely sorted Ravenclaw. I like to learn and gather information.
Scientists and doctors say that people who have lost one of their senses, have heightened senses of the remaining ones. I would assume that the same goes for people born without one of their senses. How does one judge that? Obviously through experimentation and analysis, which is a given, but how does the test subject know that things are heightened? Maybe their mind is just making them think it is, so would that be considered a true testament?
I wonder... does it apply to all aspects of life? Do clothes suddenly feel better? Do perfumes suddenly smell better or more fragrant? Or is it a slow process? Does it need to be taught to someone without one of their senses. Does it make things of the physical nature better too? Like kissing and sex, not that I know about either of those one way or another, nor do am I in a rush to. I just wonder... if it affects hearing and smells and tastes, does it really affect touch?
