"Might be able to check your beliefs more accurately, though."

"– Hm?"

"In case you don't know what you think about something," he says. "It might work on the subconscious."

Permalink

"Was a long shot, anyway."

"Yeah," he agrees. "Okay, so you definitely have telekinesis and probably the ability to get people to call you on demand unless that was a freak event, which, probably not because you got distracted. This might be weird telekinesis."

"Not the 'making things likelier' idea?"

Permalink

"It could be, that fits what we have here."

Permalink

"It sounds... no offense, but kinda lame, to be honest."

Permalink

"Maybe it gets better over time or something."

Permalink

"If you see any level-up windows, let us know."

Permalink

She smiles. "Will do."

"I'm trying to think of any more tests or other ways this power could work b—oh. Okay I thought of one, if it's what I'm thinking."

"Care to tell the class?"

Permalink

"Well... Maybe this could come with, like, a passive power?"

Permalink

"… Liiike? Being generally lucky?"

Permalink

"This magic does like being obtuse and hard to notice. But, like, maybe that could be it. There could be something else you never noticed, maybe, which you could now that you know to look for it."

… It is presumably not immediately evident just now that she has her mind open to the idea?

Permalink

Nothing obvious, no.

If she looks just a little deeper, like she's the evil character getting a redemption arc in a Disney movie, gosh doesn't this sound like fun?

Permalink

Well what's she looking for exactly?

Permalink

She's not sure! She's just trying to check over each of her senses and see if there's anything quiet that she previously overlooked, like a weird fuzz over certain things in her vision, or a quiet sound in her ear, or light taps on her skin. If she notices any sort of internal pull to something, that could be interesting, but it might just be her wanting to talk to people.

Nope, no vague objectiveless sensorial input whatsoever.
