"Yeah, it could. A subtle artist might be able to change it so she can imagine things the way I do, but it would be so dangerous to try and I'm the only one around..."

"Oh. Why would it be dangerous?"

"...because it would involve messing with her mind and nobody even has practice doing it since nobody imagines things that way where I'm from."

"Yeah.

And I guess there isn't a way for you to get practice safely, either."

"Nope. It's a problem with telepathic arts, all the practice has to be on someone. The safe way is very tentatively with someone who has experience supervising so they can undo anything you do."
