Good evening, Erik.insidecerebroDecember 23 2003, 06:55:39 UTC
And what a pleasant surprise it is to see that you have likewise been...encouraged...to sign on for a journal.
(How could I say no? I've dressed as Father Christmas, been an exhibit for "Show and Tell," raced students on bicycles... At least this promises to be somewhat relaxing and doesn't involve false facial hair.)
A friend of mine, Lorn, said that he'd heard good things about your school and that it was a place where people with special gifts could learn how to use and control them.
*scuffs shyly at the ground with the toe of one shoe*
And...I've got a few special gifts. And probably more that I don't know about, yet. Thing is..I'm not quite sure of everything that I can do; or of what my limits are. I might wind up hurting myself by accident, 'cause I wouldn't know if I was trying something I just couldn't do. Or I could wind up hurting someone else. And...that'd be worse, somehow.
*looks up at the professor, chewing on her bottom lip nervously*
What I'm asking is...can I come to your school and learn?
I do not think you know me, but my name is Lorne, and I know of you and your school. Do not worry, I will not do anything, other than perhaps send a student or two your way.
I have most recently met a young woman by the name of Ix (phoenix_rising_) and she has some extraordirnary that she has been in need of help with. I directed her toward your school for gifted children, but she may need to hear from someone who is in charge there? She's had a rough life, and I believe her academic skill are lacking, but her other gifts seem to more than make up for them. I had hoped if she made her way to you, she would receive help in both areas.
I do not know why, but there is something about this young woman that makes me want to help her.

Happy Hanukkah, by the way. If you still celebrate it.
