If telepaths are so rare then why do we keep meeting them

A telepath being unable to trust would be rather horrifying.

You hear and feel everything in everyone else’s heads, all the good and the bad, and humans have a long memory for wounding.

You can choose to focus on the good or the bad. If you’re lucky, you’re able to focus on the good. If not…

Well.

Imagine your ability to trust is damaged, and all you can hear from everyone is the untruths and insincerities everyone trades all day, every day.

You know when people are faking. You know when they’re lying. You know what they’re lying about. You know their meanest thoughts, their worst moments, their deepest hurts, their selfishness, their anger, their hatred. You’re surrounded by it. You can’t escape. You can’t forget.

And you’re just hurt enough to not even want to try.

Crawling out of that would be so hard.

Mad respect to Charles Xavier for even trying.

A fic made me think of this, but video chats and calls would be so horrible for telepaths actually, the way there SHOULD be a mind, but isn't. The way conversations might get misinterpreted just because the telepath cannot feel anything from your mind.

You know, as cool as it is to see telepaths who are able to use that ability to expertly navigate social situations, I wish we saw more socially awkward telepaths. Give me telepaths who get confused when someone's words don't match the thoughts and emotions they sense from them. Give me telepaths who accidentally startle non-telepaths by responding to things they never said out loud. Give me telepaths who are so used to just sensing someone else's emotions that they don't know how to control their own tone and other nonverbal cues because those just... don't really exist in their society. Give me telepaths that overcompensate for this by over-acting what they think these emotions are supposed to look like to non-telepaths. Give me telepaths that accidentally kill the vibe by casually mentioning some deep-seated emotion a non-telepath thought they were doing a good job of hiding. GIVE ME AWKWARD TELEPATHS PLEASE AND THANK YOU

"Counterpoint" (S05E10, Stardate UNKNOWN) presents an intriguing premise with Voyager intruding on another alien race's space and being forced to submit to their authority. It does gloss over the finer points of the Prime Directive violation, but the mystery of whether or not Kashyk is sincere is solid.

For this episode poster I wanted to emulate a propaganda poster that would capture the side of the anti-telepath Devore.
