This site can make 8eing an empath (in the psychic sort of sense, 8efore you start making assumptions) a real pain in the rear, sometimes.
god, i can onLy imagine. ... is that something you had to work on? or were you just hatched with the *nice* version of serket Powers.
I 8elieve, functionally, my own and Vriska's powers are identical. Unless she's managed some feats that I'm not aware of, anyway. The empathy portion of my a8ility set, as it were, moreso comes from sweeps on sweeps on sweeps of honing the a8ility through practice and, well, admittedly, trying to figure out a different outlet for them than outright manipul8ion. Such a thing was very frowned upon on 8eforus, so 8efore we entered the game, I had little to no actual experience utilizing them! Funny to think a8out, where I'm standing now.
