The mugura riding experiment will have to wait.

I feel as if my head were about to burst... I can hear everything, all of it. Every word, every feeling, every notion crossing every mind on this entire island.

And what's more, I can't see--

(( BOOSTER! Get yer superhero ass over to help your apartmentmate! 8O Unless

*are you talking to him? sorry, it's hard to tell over all the ROARING CONSCIOUSNESSES FLOWING INTO HIS MIND - maybe try calling his name?*

[sore_feet_man]

*he heard something there, definitely* Hibari?

[crimeas_hero]

Are you all right?

[sore_feet_man]

*this is after he's learned to shut out (most of) the voices*

...Ike?

It's hard to describe. I'm better than I was, though.

[crimeas_hero]

Guess you've been given special powers, too, huh? What's with your eye?

[sore_feet_man]

What about my eye? I can't see, but... I can, at the same time. *raises his hand in front of his eye, not really looking at it*

It's as if I know where things are, even though I can't see them.

[future_is_gold]

Ginko? Are you OK?

[sore_feet_man]

I doubt it.

What about you? Everyone else? Is this another one of the island's...?

[future_is_gold]

I'm fine. Is there anything I can do to help? Get you some tea? Uh, ice? Sunglasses?

[sore_feet_man]

Do you even know how to make tea?

...I would like some, yes.

[hunterxofxrare]

Whoaaa! Are you ok, Ginko?!

[sore_feet_man]

For the time being. I can't see, but somehow I still can sense where everything is... It's practically better than having both eyes.

I apologize, by the way, for anything I overhear. *can read yer miiiiind and is doing it right now even though he doesn't want to, believe me*

[hunterxofxrare]

*He's probably picking up some worried/distressed/confused thoughts, especially after that.*

So... you're physically blind, but you can... er, sense things? Like a psychic?

[sore_feet_man]

That's what it seems like. I don't think my senses of touch have changed, but for some reason, I can walk without worrying about running into anything. My muscles move where they should.

It's hard to describe.

[mokomanjuu]

Oh no! Ginko-sensei!

[sore_feet_man]

Ah-- Mokona-sensei. Please block your thoughts as much as you can. I seem to have developed an uncontrollable habit of seeing into people's minds.

Are you all right? *his concern ended up making him see into that part of Mokona's mind* ...You seem well, if a bit worried.

Mokona's thoughts are italics, plus what she is actually saying.

[mokomanjuu]

Mokona was worried because Ginko-sensei sounded

Okay! One! Two! Three! Four! Five...

non-glowing eye icon so i can use this face - his eye is still glowing tho
