She's probably feeling little flashes of people on the street. Not much by themselves but grating altogether. Also she can feel the cab driver, but nothing really from Roxy.

So she isn't a hundred percent protected from emotions. It sounds like she's mostly protected, which is fine their bound isn't perfect, but I need an idea of how much she is getting. Would you say 5 to 10 percent?

I am not sure I understand Devika's history. She was tagged as an empath when she was nine but didn't move into isolation until she was twenty? How did she survive?

Her parents were lawyers and they fought for her to at least be with them. She had some control over herself, but was able to home school for most of her life and limited contact with people.

I can rewrite if necessary, but that's what I was thinking.

Hmm... I'm just not sure it fits. If she was strong enough to protect herself why did she go into isolation? Why does she need an anchor?

That does make a lot of sense. Ok, how about this? She was suspected to be an empath in childhood (a lot of children are because little kids are a bit empathic, they grow out of it) but they can't actually test for it until they're teenagers. Her power was just weak enough to go under the radar, until she was just after testing age. Her parents helped the best they could, until her power got out of her control.

How's that sound?

That would make sense. Especially if her power slowly increased as she got older. She would be able stay out if isolation longer.

How did Devika get groceries?

Honestly, I was thinking something like a delivery service. Just like they kinda started recently, someone goes and shops for you.

Ok. That makes sense. I've seen those services offered but why wouldn't she be able to get fast food the same way. A lot of restaurants offer delivery. More now than before.

I didn't think of the options when I was writing? Also I feel she'd be a bit stingy about her money and spending it on fast food. Even though she loves a good cheeseburger now and then.

Being conservative with her money is a good reason not to have restaurant food delivered.

Alright, I am good and stuck. I want to time skip but I'm not sure until when. Thoughts?

Hmmm... I'm not sure. Maybe the next day? Devika will need to spend the day at Roxy's shop.

That's right. And maybe she's not used to the city noises. Hmm... Alright, I can work with this.

Now I'm curious. How far apart can they get without Devika's power going all haywire? What did you have in mind?

That depends on their relationship. Devika is already getting more emotions than she should. The further apart they are the more she will feel. They shouldn't be more than a room apart. So sleeping in separate rooms wouldn't be a problem. But if Roxy were to go down stairs and work she wouldn't know where Devika would be. If Roxy was in the front of the house and Devika was in the back it could be a problem. Roxy isn't willing to take that chance. As they get closer the shield should improve allowing them to be further apart and Devika only to feel emotions of others if and when she chooses too.
