Hey! I actually did not respond here because I meant to IM you, but didn't see you on! So I'll go ahead and respond here then. Name/s Jordan.
Firstly, I really like the concept and characterization of Cian. It's really thoughtful and well done.
Secondly, there's two lovely girls here for me to toss your way. On this journal, we have Riley Kennicot-Briggs. She's 28, married, a freelance writer, and audiokinetic who is completely deaf. She sees sound waves, and can slightly manipulate them. Mostly it ends up helping her read tone in people's voices, understand the emotion behind their words when they speak, that kind of thing. But she often causes a humming noise in people's ears and glass to shatter on occasion. Dogs hate her. xD She does not speak at all, so communication can be difficult but not impossible! She's really outgoing and friendly, and would certainly try and talk to him unless he really didn't want her to. I think she would really feel bad for him in a way, for not having supportive parents. She'd also probably take on a more familial role to him, if they got close. What do you think?
Next, over at _nuclear, I have Peyton Gray, 21 year old word-vomiter. She's the screwed up one of my small bunch. She's an empath, and takes on the emotions of other people far more than she projects them. Her family thought she was 'sensitive' for a while, and then after a very very big downward spiral & suicide attempt, she landed herself in a hospital and was diagnosed with Bi-Polar Disorder, among other things. She was hospitalized for quite a while before another psychic found her and told her about the Institute. She checked herself out and came straight to Louisiana and cut contact with her family. It's likely she would be able to actually empathize with Cian and while she wasn't given an exorcism she could definitely relate to his misfortunes and doctors visits etc. She's not exactly the friendliest person and she's often a bit dramatic, but I can see them getting along. She'd also probably fall in love with him, because she does that. With everyone. For at least a small amount of time.
Let me know if you have any ideas / like any of mine / or wish to plot more! I'm reachable in all the different ways - I have contact posts on both my journals, an OOC aim name (eiectroshocking), ic ones (peyton_grey and rileykennicot), and e-mail (geokinetically@gmail.com) so whichever works best for you is good with me!
