[center][b][h1][color=4b0082]Dr. Sena Yüksel[/color] & [color=green]Uná O’Brian[/color][/h1][/b][/center][hr] [hider=The Cottage Pt. 2] Uná smiled, seems Sena felt the same about the meds as Uná herself did.[color=green] "I can keep a secret...between friends of course."[/color] Uná blinked rapidly confused as to why she exactly said that.[color=green][i] That's weird. I mean not that it wouldn't be nice to have an adult to really talk to but why'd I even say it like that?[/i][/color] Sena relaxed a bit and leaned back on the desk running a finger over her lips for a moment and crossing her other arm. “Most of what people see and expect in medicine is wrong.” She said with a pause, considering her words. “Mutants by extension, have a similar expectation, but the truth is that what we call ‘mutations’ or even ‘[i]powers[/i]’ as some of you like to say, is a method nature uses to overcome what’s been suppressed for a very long time.” She looked back at Una carefully. “I’ll give you an example, have you ever wondered why certain colors [i]automatically[/i] trigger certain emotions?” She let the question hang in the air briefly, but she was feeling more in her element. “Red associates with power, green with wealth, blue with healing and so on. Everyone understands, but where did it come from?” Debating if she'd actually learned about this in History at some point Uná mentality shook off that perception.[color=green] "Red is probably from blood. Green probably replaced gold since the invention of paper money. Blue? Maybe water? Water is essential to life and maybe that's why. But none of it is really grounded in History. Most things like colors and the meanings of flowers are really more of a society ideal than a grounded reason."[/color] “You have some professors here that will tell you all about their grounded reasons,” She couldn’t hide a growing smirk as she spoke. “Is it true because they say so, or because [i]it really is[/i]?” She looked at Una matter-of-factly, “The science that they believe in is only a part of this reality, but there’s much more that has been hidden from you- and you [i]know[/i] it’s there, you just said so yourself.” Pausing Uná frowned.[color=green] "I… yes. I mean it's theoretical. But you're not speaking theoretically. You make it sound like myth could be real. And I guess you can say there's a seed of truth in them. But then what's truth or fiction? That's a deep rabbit hole. But I'll bite, there's always more than one side."[/color] Sena smiled at her skepticism. “I’ll prove it to you,” She said and walked over towards one the shelves aligned with books and other items from Ashford’s travels. There was an ornate porcelain [url=https://img.carters.com.au/03096c99f7e3d9040a9cd92860c9784c.jpg]vase[/url] in it’s own stand that she casually removed and held in front of her turning it in her hand slowly for Una to observe the hand painted details. Without warning she dropped it; looking at Una with complete composure as it shattered across the hardwood. “Watch.” She said, rotating the same hand that had just released the vase. A neon blue and violet hue formed around the broken pieces and the air stirred slightly. Almost as fast as it had hit the floor, the pieces drew back together and reformed in her hand as if nothing had happened. She raised an eyebrow with a sly smirk, looking at Una. “Now is it still pieces or is it whole?” Uná blinked.[color=green] "Both. Technically it's both. Or it could be. Unless you never dropped it."[/color] This was starting to get all theory of reality in here. “You’re right, the pieces are still there, but [i]your mind[/i] makes it whole.” She said with emphasis. “Just like your mind tells you that you don’t need those pills.” Uná's eyes snapped to Sena.[color=green] "You're not making this conversation easy Sena. It's like you're trying to tell me that reality is what you make of it. Trust me I know that better than most. I hate it when someone holds a truth behind a curtain and describes it to make you guess. Professor Everose does that and it pisses me off."[/color] Uná's eyes narrowed slightly and shifted black then back to blue as she blinked. “I know it does,” Sena said calmingly in agreement. The familiarity that flashed across the young girl’s eyes was what she was looking to find and she touched her shoulder firmly looking into her blue irises. “I’m telling you that when you understand how the universe really works, they won’t be able to hide it... and it will be what you make of it.” [/hider] [@Almalthia]
