Something wasn't right here, it just didn't sit well with Odessa. Her ability to sense the Extra-Normal should have went right off... but it didn't. And she knows for a fact this "Lynette" was Extra-Normal. Odessa held her hands together below her waist as she watched the two interact with each other. Something wasn't fully right here yet she couldn't put her finger on it. It was like Odessa wanted it to be true, yet she knew it couldn't. A fantasy that was tempting her to indulge.

The words hung in the air for a moment as Lynette looked... hurt by the words. Still, she shook her head as she replied with a wry smile on her face.

"... Forty-three kilograms of carbon, sixteen kilograms of hydrogen, seven kilograms of nitrogen, one-point-eight kilograms of calcium, one kilogram of phosphorus, zero-point-seventy-eight kilograms of potassium, point-fourteen kilograms of sulfur, point-fourteen kilograms of sodium, point-ten kilograms of chlorine, point-ninety-five kilograms of Magnesium... [i]and[/i] oxygen."

She topped off the lengthy spiel with laughter as she said, "Or in layman's terms: human. I bet you could come up and poke me and I'd [i]feel[/i] like it." She shrugged as she laughed again.

[i]Smartass.[/i] Odessa rolled her eyes as the Lynette fumbled with the book in her hands.

"I'm just wondering [i]why[/i] you were giving Hagan and Zoey so much shit for something you[i] too[/i] are guilty of," Lynette started, "I mean it's okay - it really is - [i]nobody's[/i] perfect." She shrugged.

"... I can say you aren't Extra-Normal," Odessa trailed off, "Which doesn't make sense because..."

"Well," Lynette said with a shrug as she threw a thumb back towards Penny. "She has it, Odessa. Which is a weight off [i]my[/i] shoulders." Lynette said with a wry grin.

And Odessa was silent because those words cut deep. She took in a deep breath and let it out as she balled her fists. "I never told you my name." She simply said.

Lynette took a few steps towards Penny as she began to explain. "But, it isn't my place to talk about what happened to Caelea... I just want to make sure you don't hurt yourself out here, Penny." 

She took a deep breath as she kept her distance because she knew that Penny didn't trust her. Not that she needed to be close to explain herself.

"Because... there are so many Apparitions because [i]here[/i]... [i]there's nowhere to move on to[/i]," The words hung in the air, "Souls are trapped here... boxed in without a key. And without the ability to move on they become Apparitions. And even the strongest minds get [i]broken[/i] by loneliness over time, Penny..."

Lynette shook her head as a sigh escaped her lips.

"... I'd hate to see that happen to you when you still need to tell [i]them[/i] about what happened."
