[FILTERED TO MAGIC PEOPLE & SURIT.]

Are any of you adept at dealing with the mind? I guess it would be considered magical to you. Magical minds. ~~I just need to know how fucked I am if something goes sideways.~~ I have a few small questions, minuscule even, but I figured one of you would be able to answer.

	Smiley day to you! The only minuscule question is "how do you spell minuscule' which is a very tricky word! So let's rephrase that to be what is your really important and worthwhile question? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Smiley day to you too? I swear, nothing important. Trying to understand the options available to people who read minds. Do you? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Well, if you're asking to gather more information, whether for yourself or others, it's important! But I do. Read minds. It's not a constant thing, I have to really choose to do it. Do you? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I'll answer that in a second. Have you always been able to? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I think so! As long as I can remember, anyway. It's a part of my--design, I guess! Some spells I have to actively select but that one is always there. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	But it's not always on. You have to turn it on? Or 'select the spell'? There's a choice involved there. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Well, I suppose you could argue that the choice may be turning it off and I just don't know it! But I've always known how to detect thoughts. Other magics have come over time, but that one is always there for me. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Do you use it when no one is paying attention? Do people notice when you're detecting thoughts? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	smileyday 2023-02-09 05:51 pm UTC (link)
	I've been told it's not polite to do that and with my friends, I ask consent! Sometimes people notice, and then that's it, and I just get surface thoughts but sometimes people don't notice, or they agree to it, and I can read memories or feelings. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	How do you know whether or not people notice? Do they feel it or...? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	The mind feels different. It's--static. And it's hard to focus to even try to do anything else. (Reply to this) (Parent)
