At this revelation, [Timothy](http://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75166/posts/char#post-2323135) felt utterly violated. Was she reading his thoughts right now? Hell, could she read even Cadwal's thoughts? He had called her a bitch _and_ a sow, too! Jaw slightly agape and brow mildly furrowed, she looked into those wondrous eyes and wondered if their sparkle was but an illusion, whether the blush on her cheeks was real, whether or not he was being _tricked_ by the beauty of that smile. Tim had always took solace in his thoughts, his own mind, believing them to be inviolable. But now here comes someone who could breach that sacred fortress; and the fact that she had compared herself to Satan wasn't doing her any favors for him.

_"Wait, does that mean-"_ Timothy started, but Cadwal interjected.

_"She can hear us right now?!"_

"So," Timothy began, after a lengthy beat, showing his palms as he asked for confirmation: "You can truly read my mind?"

_"Can you read my thoughts, too?"_ Cadwal supplemented, not without alarm in his mind-voice.
