[My dressage trainer years ago had TMJ--the aftermath of a bad car accident (she was thrown through the windshield), and it plagued her something awful. She'd have days when she just couldn't get out of bed and no conventional medicine helped her. She relied a lot on sports massage, but was a very imperfect cure. So the injections you're talking about--even if your body just nopes out every now and then, if they give you your life back that's srsly invaluable. On my end, I've spend all day today and half of yesterday trying to find a good cheap(ish) gaming laptop option. The reason I think GW2 is to blame is because so many hours of extra hot running temps which had the fans working severely overtime and wearing out. Gaming laptops are just built with more heat dispersal in mind than a macbook. I think I'm paying the price for that, but we'll see what the techies say tomorrow.]
"Huh. I wonder what effect human pheromones have on plants," he mused aloud, "if they have any at all." It was a topic close enough to his own interest in the mind-altering effects of plant preparations that he was genuinely fascinated to find out.
"Does she have control of her ability?" Obviously, Aurus was taking to the idea of meeting this student already, and not in the least put off by the possibility that the girl's powers could somehow emotionally manipulate him.
As for Raven, though, he reached out and touched Charles' hand, sensing something of what troubled him and laying his own palm atop the man's. "Trust that you will see her again. Just as, even after so many years away, I return to my own home either to visit in the Dream or someday to go back in person. Wandering long and far does not mean that one does not love their home nor miss the people there."
