[ Although the other day was far from as traumatic as the last inmate influx, it left Reid a little pensive. Made him think of extreme aggressors, of 50 000 chess games, of expecting different outcomes in a game that would only end with check mate, but unlike a few years ago this is not a depressive thought. Instead, it makes him crave interaction and so he hits up the network. ]

Hey, guys. I was wondering... there's quite a few of us here that know how to play chess. How would you feel about an impromptu tournament? Nothing fancy, just... I don't know, anyone who's interested could drop by the library and we'll set up a few games. Bring a board, if you got one.

[ A bit of an awkward smile and then he cuts the feed. ]

(( OOC: MINGLE-STYLE! Email notifs are off, so thread to your hearts content! Reid will have a video response thread here and an action response thread here for your Reid-y needs! ))

	That is an interesting thing for a profiler to say. [And she can't even read bracket text!] And I could do it without you seeing me. [Not that she can be invisible. But...ninja training.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ Well. That shut him up. He knows she's right and normally this would be the time where he comes up with some counter-argument but uhm. He doesn't really have one. ] ...I just don't like the idea of someone hearing what I'm thinking. There's a difference between profiling and mind-reading. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

The difference between an educated guess and the facts. Hey, I get it. I haven't always loved having people in my mind.

...They had it harder at home. The telepaths I mean. Apocalypse went after them. They were a threat I guess. So, they either worked for him—and not exactly willingly, or they died. Dying was probably the better option. There weren't many around.

	I can see why. I'm not saying it's okay — it definitely isn't — but with a power that sensitive and that powerful..? It's no mystery why they would be targeted. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	There were lots of not okay things there. Too many to count. I'm realizing more them every day. [You can't always see it clearly when you're in it.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ There's a lot he could say here. Psychology stuff and empathy stuff and something reassuring, perhaps but in the end he says nothing, simply closes what little distance there is between them to wrap his arms tightly around him. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	We do a lot of this. [She grips him in return.] Not complaining. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	It feels like we still have a lot of catching up to do. [ Not letting go anytime soon. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I guess that happens when you're literally from two different worlds. Next time you tell the sad story and I do the holding? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ He makes an amused little noise. ] I'll, uh... I'll think of something suitably depressing. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I have every faith in you. [She smiles and then there is a little nuzzling.] (Reply to this) (Parent)
