In canon, Ichigo could 'sense the feelings in his opponent's sword'. This is something of a shounen tagline, but since Zangetsu is out, and about, and he is the actual sword that does the feeling, I've translated this into high-level Empathy. He's not a telepath, and can't hear thoughts, and whatnot, but he can sense emotions.

RANGE: Zangetsu

Just leaving advance notice here in case it ever comes up!

polarisation is totally fair game, although I doubt Zangetsu would get a chance to touch him physically, so it would have to be through proximity or accident. eternityunseen is more difficult due to his own empathy - it's generalized to a large radius around himself and always on, but not overwhelming. He also has the soul of a goddess. I don't know if that would strengthen or cloud Zangetsu's ability, so go ahead and use your best judgment.

[heavenlychain]

Thank you!

And yeah, short of running into Sefton near the shelter, or something, these two don't have much in the way of CR :c.

There's a lot of powerful folks in BN, so right now Zangetsu is mostly just overwhelmed. He doesn't want to go outside, or be around crowds because he gets bombarded with emotion, and it gives him headaches. Being around Zach I tend to think would be like trying to see the stars with a bright light standing right next to you. If close to Zach, Zangetsu wouldn't be able to sense much outside of that big, glowy, goddess :|a

Shelter-encounters are more than possible! I just... can't think of what would prompt them to speak to each other. Something to keep in mind, at any rate. XD

That makes sense, re: Zachary. We can definitely go with that, unless eternityunsaid-mun has an objection. Either way, hopefully I'll get to throw somebody at Zangetsu soon! :3

[heavenlychain]

Since neither Sefton, nor Zangetsu are really, um, talkative, this may be a challenge 8|a;;;

But, YAY! GIMME ALL THE CR \o/!

Some tends to read as a wordcloud to telepaths, and I'm trying to figure how this would translate for an empath.

[heavenlychain]

A jumble of emotions, maybe? Or possibly a giant question mark, since he's a Grue. If you'd rather not full with working out the difference that is ;;

I figured Some would read as a jumble of insecurity, fear, yearning for family/acceptance, and lots of loneliness ;;

[gruesomething]

That works great.

[heavenlychain]

Erm...which? The giant question mark, or the jumble of emotions?

[sykkea]

Hello! Consider this blanket permission for empathy reading on eternityunsaid, shapechanged and lackingspark. ♥ If you ever need me to explicitly point something out, then let me know and I'll do so.

Uhh, special note that like Zachary above, Abe also has the soul of a goddess. Otherwise, mine aren't really tuned to empathy/telepathy/psionics and the like so they're either vulnerable, or at the very least, they pose no "threat" or hindrance, as it were.

[heavenlychain]

Empathy is a little different then telepathy, but STILL! Duly noted, and thank you very much ;D!

[glassesonachain]

Bennett is definitely fair game! Having him sense her feeling would probably do her some good, in fact. Her emotions can be sort of wacky though, so don't hesitate to ask exactly what's going on with her. She's sort of an emotional train wreck, tbh...>_>;;

[nearlyasfun]

Um, Emma's fair game, but admittedly, once she realizes that something is going on, she'll probably shift into diamond form and thus lose any sort of emotion she may have had in her normal form. And then he might just be able to sense ice or nothingness.

If it ever comes up I'll clarify completely.
