"Only because I am new myself" kalinda said, "also because I recognise the signs of impending emotional instability" she led the way outside to somewhere less populated by students, "I'm Kalinda" when she was satisfied they were far enough away, she sat down, setting the girls tray of food down.

"I bet you need some calm emotions right about now. I'm pretty calm" kalinda said, then went about the process of letting her own blocks down, and therefore enabling the girl-is she could indeed sense emotions, to sense kalindas. If that didnt work, Kalinda could always calm the girl down herself, assuming her emotional manipulation worked on another who could deal with emotions.
