"Sometimes if I concentrate. Can even project my consciousness into it if I want, though that's not always wise."

"Zat seems like eet would be both fascinating yet terrifying at zee same time."

by **Miranda Weaver** » Wed Dec 03, 2014 9:08 am

"For someone who isn't trained, it can be terrifying. Anything can happen there and sometimes it feels like you don't have control over it, but it's a place of almost pure thought and that panic is in many ways more dangerous."

by **Veronica Glarette** » Wed Dec 03, 2014 1:04 pm

"Zis makes sense. I am impressed you are able to do zis. Eet must take a lot off patience and concentration."

by **Miranda Weaver** » Wed Dec 03, 2014 1:09 pm

"They've taken non-telepaths into the Astral. It just requires the proper setup and assistance. I mean, I wouldn't be qualified to take you, but there are probably some people here who would be willing to take you if they have the time."

by **Veronica Glarette** » Wed Dec 03, 2014 1:12 pm

"Oh, I did not realize zat were possible. Is eet intriguing in zere? I would be interested to see how sings work."

by **Miranda Weaver** » Wed Dec 03, 2014 1:14 pm

"I mostly enjoy it when I go. I know some others here haven't had good experiences with it. How intriguing it is depends on where you end up."

by **Veronica Glarette** » Wed Dec 03, 2014 1:17 pm

"Zis may be somesing I will look into in zee future at some point. A new experience to broaden zee mind, if you will."

by **Miranda Weaver** » Wed Dec 03, 2014 1:20 pm

"Most of the university telepaths should be capable of helping you and there's always Mum, if you really need to. Mom has some other ways of getting there as well, but they're more... magical."

by **Veronica Glarette** » Wed Dec 03, 2014 1:33 pm

"My apologies if eet was already stated, but...who are your mosers?"

by **Miranda Weaver** » Wed Dec 03, 2014 1:34 pm

"Oh, sorry, I forgot that not everyone knows. Headmistress McManus and Professor Weaver," Miranda said, smiling.

by **Veronica Glarette** » Wed Dec 03, 2014 1:39 pm

"Ah, sank you." She smiles back. "Strangely enough I haf not had zee chance to meet zem formally, zough I would like to. Sings are raser busy." She says with a chuckle.

by **Miranda Weaver** » Wed Dec 03, 2014 1:41 pm

"Things do tend to be go-go-go around here most of the time."

by **Veronica Glarette** » Wed Dec 03, 2014 1:42 pm

Veronica nods. "I haf noticed. Most off zee world is like zat, however. Little time to waste on sitting, speaking, and taking a breath off zee sings around you."

by **Miranda Weaver** » Wed Dec 03, 2014 1:46 pm

"It seems like it would be common sense to slow down from time to time."

by **Veronica Glarette** » Wed Dec 03, 2014 1:52 pm

"One would sink. I belief for many people, somesing has to happen for zem to realize zis."

by **Miranda Weaver** » Wed Dec 03, 2014 1:56 pm

"'Common sense isn't' as they say, I guess."

by **Veronica Glarette** » Wed Dec 03, 2014 2:03 pm

"Somesing to learn over time. Perhaps eet is zee general fear off zee fact zat life is too short. People feel zey must keep moving quickly in order to experience as much as possible, when in reality zee beauty off zee world and it's experiences can be right in front of zem. If only zey would look."

by **Miranda Weaver** » Thu Dec 04, 2014 8:14 pm

"Sometimes they might be afraid of what they'll see."

by **Veronica Glarette** » Thu Dec 04, 2014 8:40 pm

"Wis good reason. Mais, even in all off zee darkness zat can sometimes surround us, even zee tiniest glimpses off light can be stronger zan many take zem for. Eet is all a matter off perspective."

by **Miranda Weaver** » Thu Dec 04, 2014 9:38 pm

"Perspective can be a hard thing to gain."

by **Veronica Glarette** » Thu Dec 04, 2014 10:41 pm

"As you said before, nosing wors while can be easy." She says with a smile.

by **Miranda Weaver** » Fri Dec 05, 2014 10:41 am

Miranda contemplated that for a moment as she shelved a couple of books. Then she held the book in her hand out in Veronica's general direction, "Take it, please." Her other hand was fishing in the small shoulder bag that she always wore these days.

by **Veronica Glarette** » Fri Dec 05, 2014 3:12 pm

Veronica takes the book and looks to where to put it away. "Off course."

by **Miranda Weaver** » Fri Dec 05, 2014 3:25 pm

Miranda pulled a small sketchbook out of her bag along with a pencil and flipped it open to a blank page. She started sketching rapidly, staring into the space between books, which apparently had some bearing on the vision as she sketched them into it. The shape the image took on was that of a long tunnel of books with an indistinct, almost ghostly figure hovering at the far end of it. The figure was reaching towards the viewer as though they were asking for help. After a moment, the pencil slowed down and Miranda shook her head. "Sorry... Goddess, that was... Whew. Better now."

by **Veronica Glarette** » Fri Dec 05, 2014 3:35 pm

She smiles. "No need to apologize. Zat is a wonderful way to keep zee memory off what you see. Eet is how I do sings as well." Her own hand digs in her bag and pulls out her journal, tapping it.

by **Miranda Weaver** » Fri Dec 05, 2014 3:40 pm

"Mom says that part of the process is using this," she tapped the sketchbook, "to take control rather than letting the vision control me. Or something like that. I'm sure I'm getting it wrong. You're welcome to look if you want." She offered the sketchbook to Veronica.

by **Veronica Glarette** » Fri Dec 05, 2014 4:01 pm

Veronica takes the book, not looking through it just yet. "You do not mind?"

by **Miranda Weaver** » Fri Dec 05, 2014 6:20 pm

"I don't mind," Miranda said, "Though don't expect them to make sense."

by **Veronica Glarette** » Fri Dec 05, 2014 6:22 pm

Veronica smiles softly and opens the pages, looking the drawings over one by one.

by **Miranda Weaver** » Fri Dec 05, 2014 6:30 pm

Among the drawings, were some that stood out:

A ruined temple (the first image in the book)
A blindfolded archer and a hooded woman fighting an amorphous cloud monster
A female figure in a cocoon in the dark
A hooded woman holding a bloody sword
A broken-winged figure in a cell or box of some sort
A once-winged woman in the middle of a scattering of bodies
Several drawings that did not have the quality of the others as if the artist wasn't drawing from the straight visual

"Some of those are nearly a year old. And it was hard to sort out vision-visions from my clairvoyance moving around at first."

by **Veronica Glarette** » Fri Dec 05, 2014 6:37 pm

Veronica stops at the drawing with woman surrounded by bodies. "Hm. And you said zese are, for zee most part, visions?"

by **Miranda Weaver** » Fri Dec 05, 2014 6:40 pm

"Yes, supposedly possible futures. But only possible, not set in stone."

by **Veronica Glarette** » Fri Dec 05, 2014 6:52 pm

She nods in understanding, then goes back to the first page where the temple is drawn. "Zis place seems very important."

by **Miranda Weaver** » Fri Dec 05, 2014 6:53 pm

"First vision I had. Representative of how my mind arranged itself in some respects. Still might be a future, but I don't know."

by **Veronica Glarette** » Fri Dec 05, 2014 7:32 pm

"I would like to sink your future is not a ruined temple, Miranda. You seem very smart and I do not sink your future is a dark one. Sings such as zis...or zis..." She says, motioning to the broken temple, then a woman surrounding bodies. "Are, as you said, not set in stone."

by **Miranda Weaver** » Fri Dec 05, 2014 7:34 pm

"I have to be remind myself of that from time to time. There's inherent dangers in seeing these things. You become so obsessed with making them happen or preventing them that... well... things go horribly wrong."

by **Veronica Glarette** » Fri Dec 05, 2014 7:37 pm

She nods. "I can not say I will ever be in understanding off how zat works, as I see zee oser side off zat spectrum. However, I do know zat, powers aside, should you ever feel zee need to talk sings over and keep yourself from falling into zat obsession, I would be more zen happy to oblige. Such sings are not meant to be held inside where zey may fester and tear us apart."

by **Miranda Weaver** » Fri Dec 05, 2014 8:01 pm

"I appreciate the offer. It really does mean a lot to me."

by **Veronica Glarette** » Fri Dec 05, 2014 8:14 pm

She smiles. "Sink nosing off eet. I mean what I say. You represent zee future, I represent zee past. We should stick together, non?" Veronica says with a chuckle.
