Yeah, I thought Ebon was a tsundere, not a straight up jerkass. Granted we're also talking about things that hasn't really happened yet, but still you're making it seem like you're intent on doing this.

As for the mental thing I do sort of understand the whole "Not prepared to deal with this" sort of idea, but at the same time I still think there should be some way for someone to pick it up. If Aura can be used to heal and create physical barriers, you'd think it could be used to create mental ones as well.
