[quote=@Nemaisare] While I can't answer for any other Minerva types, as I'm not sure about the brain thing, I can answer this as concerns Lucas. Yay for that fact. lol As an organic that is, technically, not created by humans or shaped by them, Emory would not come across as an object to Lucas, much like any other living thing. He'd leave impressions and emotions in other objects though, same as everything else, from what I gather, but with the occasionally strange oozing sensation which Lucas would never have considered combined with emotions before. Though, for the most part, he'd leave much the same impressions as any other human. The main reason Lucas would be surprised, upon first meeting Emory(and probably numerous subsequent times), is due to the fact that he isn't wearing actual clothing or shoes or whatever. As he's made all of that out of his own slime, it is also organic and not a man made object(at least, that's my take on it, given as I don't get the feeling that he's creating something out of the slime, just shaping it into the appearance of... If I'm wrong, whoops, but good to know). So, since everything Emory's 'wearing' doesn't count as an object, it would come across to Lucas as completely silent. Which would be very weird given as he would be looking at things that ordinarily give off some sort of memory. And presumably he'd also be able to touch them, feel that they seem exactly like every other bit of cloth or shoe out there, but they just don't have any memories whatsoever. That would definitely be something that catches Lucas' attention without fail. Though Emory would have to pass within 10' of Lucas first. I'm very much seeing invasion of space happening on Lucas' side of things. :P [/quote] That all makes a lot of sense, I like that approach. Thanks for explaining it; I feel that the characters will have a particularly interesting dynamic; Lucas unnerved by Emory's apparent nonexistence, Emory by Lucas' ability to easily unearth the secrets he's kept over the last five years. I'm very excited about him meeting Lucas in particular.
