Her focus proved especially useful in constructing scenarios for her to practice her skills. And without practice, any path I set her on might not last long enough to take.# Cass shook her head. #Don't write her off so easily. Alex never was one to give up at anything without a fight.# #Really? Hmm. Well, if things go well, some of my fellows back when did develop a kind of Telepaths' Kama Sutra. I shouldn't offer it to her right now, but if her relationship develops, could you relay my offer to send her a copy?# Cass blinked, then blushed. #You just made that up!# Alex glanced at Cass, and concentrated. #Alright, you two. I might not be able to hear what you're saying, but you need to work on your subtelty.# #Err...I...I was just asking Dee to show me some of his cuter forms later!# Dee sweatdropped. Alex had heard Cass's comment, now that she was listening to Cass's mind. #Sure, sure. He is *so* taken.# #He is?# #Yeah. I was thinking about Ben while we were training last night, and...well, it got in the way of focussing, so we talked about it. He even showed me how to use Ben - or rather, what I think of him - as a focus. He let me feel what he thinks of Aerie's mom for a moment.# Her cheeks flushed. #I'm still not sure whether I should smack him for that...but, Cass...it was so beautiful. You would have loved it.# Dee buried his face in his hands. #Could you, ah, please not talk about Marcia like that? Especially in front of me? Please?# TBC?
