eyebrows arch, pushing together on an aged visage at such an idea to begin with. what does it mean that zach is his counterpart ? it is clear as day when it is considered, after all zach was the part of him that he was missing. however, herman and woody both were as well, but woody, as usual recently, has had the reason in the group. the smarts. but this was… terrifying. like a punch in the gut, cold as ice and twice as potent, fear. hagan is afraid of what this is doing to him.
and now he’s aware of it. things that he didn’t consider to be bizzare before are suddenly vivid and troubling against the clarity of knowledge and reason. why is it he can tell where zach is at any given minute, can tell when he’s sick or sleepy – ? why can he sense what zach wants before he can even sense what he’s thinking himself ? seems pretty bizzare, doesn’t it, lionheart ? what an oddity. the answer is simple. he is hearing zach’s thoughts. experiencing what he’s experiencing.
‘ i —- ’ he doesn’t even know how to begin, ‘ what is going to happen to me ? is this what… all the weird shit is ? like the music when i’m not listening to anything and smelling mindy’s perfume even though she’s nowhere near me ? ’
he knows the answer, a definite fact that will become reoccurring in the next few months, but he asks anyways, brain racing and body stiffening with panic. he didn’t even notice it before, didn’t even consider anything, but now all he wants is for it to stop. cease its function so he doesn’t have to be connected to a nineteen year old boy. he’d never be alone, zach would always be in his head, and now he feels invaded, like he doesn’t belong in his own skin. blunt nails itch with the desire to scratch all his flesh off.
‘ woody, ’ every syllable accented and soaked in fear, ‘ what will happen if he and i come into contact ? like.. what is going to happen if we touch each other ? is my brain going to fucking explode ? ’
the thoughts racing within the other’s mind was to expected. they race; he listens. there’s no communication. rather would speak to him verbally, than telepathically. it’s an unsettling thing, this ability. especially right now. digging into someone’s every emotion, – this fear he’s feeling, the anxiety – woody felt it to. the lack of groomed features that confide within the solitude of that helmet, they twitch in reaction to hagan’s mental contemplation.
the coordination is what’s abnormal; the ability to sense the pair’s emotion, tiredness, and when it’s obvious health has taken a slight downfall. it’s something that doesn’t really recollect in woody’s knowledge. a legitimate stump. but, he knows, within a short time, the solution to this problem could be solved by simple, ratiocinated thinking. there’s even a great amount of PITY for hagan, as, now, he knows -- or, will know -- the impure and obvious teenage-like thoughts (you know, like the first time the telepathy had been discovered). poor, ol’ chap.
eyelids squint in response to the quick stop of anthony’s speech. lost for words, hm ? all good. can hear ALL of your thoughts, anyways, mate. ‘ it’s all a part of the development, unfortunately. i (!!!) can’t even fully comprehend the measures of this unorthodox happening. says a lot, really. -- which probably doesn’t assist in any way, yeah ? my apologizes. ’
there’s another brief moment of calculating the speculation of the problem, but the only thing that really flickers in this mind of infinite knowledge is the fact they are counterparts. they’re in sync. it’s the only thing that makes sense of this. the ONLY idea. they’re all still adjusting. maybe, this was something that’s yet to fuse into the boy’s brain. there’s still much to know. and, there’s still time needed to fully balance.
‘ don’t know. how about you try it ? couldn’t hurt anyone. i highly doubt your brain explode. not literally, that is. but, -- exploding head syndrome is a parasomnia condition that causes the sufferer occasionally to experience a tremendously loud noise as originating from within his or her own head, usually described as the sound of an explosion, roar, gunshot, loud voices or screams, a ringing noise, or the sound of electrical arcing. have you experienced any noises i listed, mate ? ’
