I12DT - Thoughts Are Simpler Out Here

by **Robyn Delaney** » Wed Jul 31, 2013 12:19 pm

Robyn wandered the edges of the woods, leaning against trees occasionally to look at the grounds. It was quieter out here away from the insanity of the dorms and that was kind of nice.

At least it should have been. She wasn't the only one wandering around the woods apparently, though this girl was making much more mental 'noise' than one person should have.

Spotting Robyn Teri gives her a little wave.

by **Robyn Delaney** » Wed Jul 31, 2013 2:42 pm

Robyn waved back, throwing up a mental wall to at least keep Teri's mental noise to a dull roar.

by **Teri Napliotis** » Wed Jul 31, 2013 2:55 pm

Which probably works pretty well. She's not particularly loud, she just has thousands of voices constantly going back and forth in her head.

"Hey." she smiles, walking over. "Out for a walk?"

by **Robyn Delaney** » Wed Jul 31, 2013 3:01 pm

"Something like that," she said. "I'm Robyn."

by **Teri Napliotis** » Wed Jul 31, 2013 3:02 pm

"We're Teri. Are you new here?"

by **Robyn Delaney** » Wed Jul 31, 2013 3:03 pm

We're?

"Yeah, just a bit new. You?"

by **Teri Napliotis** » Wed Jul 31, 2013 3:09 pm

"We've been here for a while, though we mostly keep to ourselves."

by **Robyn Delaney** » Wed Jul 31, 2013 5:02 pm

"Why is that?"

by **Teri Napliotis** » Wed Jul 31, 2013 5:09 pm

"We're just quiet." she shrugs. "And sometimes it's nicer to be out here in the woods or the gardens."

by **Robyn Delaney** » Wed Jul 31, 2013 5:37 pm

"It is nice out here. Not sure I want to go too far into the woods though."

by **Teri Napliotis** » Wed Jul 31, 2013 5:56 pm

"They're not that deep. Though it's getting too cold to spend the night out here." she nods.

by **Robyn Delaney** » Wed Jul 31, 2013 8:39 pm

"You spend the night out there often?"

by **Teri Napliotis** » Wed Jul 31, 2013 8:47 pm

"We did in the summer." she nods.

by **Robyn Delaney** » Wed Jul 31, 2013 9:05 pm

"Okay, I have to ask... we?"

by **Teri Napliotis** » Wed Jul 31, 2013 9:26 pm

Teri looks at her with a look that says she's been asked this a lot of times.

"We'd show you but... do you mind bugs? A lot of people mind bugs."

by **Robyn Delaney** » Wed Jul 31, 2013 9:55 pm

"I don't really mind bugs."

by **Teri Napliotis** » Wed Jul 31, 2013 10:01 pm

"Okay then." she says and dissolves into a huge cloud of locust. The mental voices grow significantly louder as she does so.

by **Robyn Delaney** » Thu Aug 01, 2013 8:42 pm

"Interesting," Robyn said, softening the wall to listen to the voices.

by **Teri Napliotis** » Thu Aug 01, 2013 8:50 pm

They were all talking over each other, most of them thoughts anyone would have, just all at the same time.

by **Robyn Delaney** » Thu Aug 01, 2013 8:57 pm

"I don't know that I've encountered anything like you before," she said, holding out her hands.

by **Teri Napliotis** » Thu Aug 01, 2013 9:00 pm

One of the locusts lands on it while the rest reforms into Teri.

"We're very unusual." she nods with a smile. The bug on Robyn's hand twitches it's antennae and starts to clean it's wings.

by **Robyn Delaney** » Fri Aug 02, 2013 7:28 am

"Indeed," she said, studying the bug. Experimenting, she though at the locust, Can you hear this?

by **Teri Napliotis** » Fri Aug 02, 2013 12:03 pm

A strange mental ripple runs through Teri.

"Did you say something?" she tilts her head.

by **Robyn Delaney** » Fri Aug 02, 2013 12:06 pm

"Sort of," she said. "I used my mind to project a thought to this little one. I was curious if you could hear it."

by **Teri Napliotis** » Fri Aug 02, 2013 12:08 pm

"Maybe if we pay more attention to that one..."

by **Robyn Delaney** » Fri Aug 02, 2013 12:10 pm

"I'll try again," she said. What about now?

by **Teri Napliotis** » Fri Aug 02, 2013 12:11 pm

"Kind of!" she says cheerfully. "Wow, it's like you're one of us."

by **Robyn Delaney** » Fri Aug 02, 2013 12:16 pm

"Not quite. I'm still getting used to talking like that in some ways."

by **Teri Napliotis** » Fri Aug 02, 2013 12:22 pm

"It's pretty neat. But yeah, it is a bit like you're one of us. We had to listen real carefully to her just one of us."

by **Robyn Delaney** » Fri Aug 02, 2013 1:11 pm

"So there's a bunch of you and you talk to each other constantly?"

by **Teri Napliotis** » Fri Aug 02, 2013 1:13 pm

"Yeah. Well sometimes we talk more at each other, but yep!"

by **Robyn Delaney** » Fri Aug 02, 2013 1:14 pm

"Everyone talks at each other from time to time," she laughed.

by **Teri Napliotis** » Fri Aug 02, 2013 1:24 pm

"Just not literally." she chuckles.

by **Robyn Delaney** » Fri Aug 02, 2013 1:26 pm

"Point taken," Robyn said. "So where are you from?"

by **Teri Napliotis** » Fri Aug 02, 2013 1:29 pm

"We're from Greece."

by **Robyn Delaney** » Mon Aug 05, 2013 7:05 am

"I've never been there," she said, "What's it like?" She sat down at the foot of the tree, obviously listening.

by **Teri Napliotis** » Mon Aug 05, 2013 11:51 am

"We don't remember much from before but the mountains are nice. The weather is nicer and the air tastes different. Like warm cypresses."

by **Robyn Delaney** » Mon Aug 05, 2013 11:53 am

"From before?" She was idly petting the lone locust in her hand, obviously without thinking about the ramifications of such a gesture.

by **Teri Napliotis** » Mon Aug 05, 2013 11:56 am

Teri doesn't seem to mind at the very least, sitting down on the grass.

"Yeah, from before we were us, when we were just Teri."
