This is great writing music. I'm addicted I think. :)

I don't usually post unedited scraps
But here is one, anyway. I figure I'm more likely to write and post if I actively resist overthinking it. Which means forcing myself to post things that I know aren't perfect/very good. So...
Telepathy was fine for communicating secretly. Actually using it to enter others' minds was another story. Briallen would try to brace herself for what was coming, but it never worked. The experience overcame her mind every time. She would come out of it gasping, leaning against the wall for support, chills trickling down her skin. If there wasn't a wall, she would find herself on the floor. She tried to avoid using the skill if she couldn't go somewhere private, because it scared people. It scared her, too. It was exhilarating, sometimes, but mostly, it was just terrifying.
