 Fred was trying to pace the amount of work he did compared to the rest that Sylvie insisted he take. Now was one of his rest periods. Frankly..Fred wasn't sure what he wanted to do. Perhaps something to drink? Figuring this was as good an idea as any, he headed for the kitchen.

Cait was heading for the kitchen herself. It was morning and she needed a cup of coffee or tea. Anything with caffeine would do.

"Hey Fred," she said through a yawn.

"Oh, hello Cait," Fred greeted politely. Time to go through the motions of conversation.

"Well you do live in a place with quite a few people so conversation is inevitable," Cait said gently. "I'm just trying to be friendly.

"I realize that but..wait, what did you say?" Does Cait have residual telepathic abilities. No, there's no relation between water generation and telepathy.

Cait's eyes went wide. "You didn't say that out loud? And I know there's no relation between hydrokinetics and telepathy."

His own eyes widened. "No, I didn't..." He began to mentally panic, trying to keep his thoughts private. He ran a series of genetic code figures through his mind.

Cait's mind was suddenly flooded with images from his. "Stop. Please. Don't panic. I don't know what's going on but I can hear your thoughts and read your mind."

He ran his hands through his hair, pacing a little. "No, no one must see. It's mine and mine alone. No one should see but me." There's a very brief image of dark laboratory amidst the stray thoughts.

"I'm not trying to see," Cait assured him. "I don't know why I can do it, but you need to help me. I can't control it."

"I..yes, yes, the situation must be resolved. Were you near Rachel recently? Perhaps..some manner of power transferal." He reaches into a pocket for his medication.

"It's Wednesday," Cait said with a shrug. "Who knows. It's about normal for the course around here."

Of course, par for the course in this insane asylum.Still, at least it doesn't involve..no, can't think about that. But why not? This place is as grating as home ever was, you know. It certainly is not! I have family here. Someone who cares about me. Oh please, do you really believe that? So absorbed was he in the mental debate in his head that he had forgotten Cait. "I..sorry," he said, trying to maintain a sense of composure as he swallowed the pill.

Cait picked up all the thoughts, but she didn't react to them. She didn't want to make him any more uncomfortable. "It's okay, Fred. Things happen. I'm sorry if this has made you uncomfortable."

"No, Cait..not your fault. This happenstance is clearly not of your doing." He takes a calming breath as his meds start to kick in. Did anything unusual, wait, more unusual than usual occur recently?"

Cait shrugged. "I have no clue. It happened and I can read minds. Hopefully it will wear off."

Indeed. "Perhaps you should speak to Rachel or Starbridge. Either of them may be able to help you more than I could." You could always use the neural scrambler. No! Tat could hurt! I won't do it! Since when has a conscious mattered to you! Go away!

"I'll talk to Rach or the Professor," she said. When the images came her heart ached for him. She wanted to just wrap him in a hug and hold him to take the pain away. "Thank you."

"You're welcome, Cait. I regret not being of more help." Listen to you! Why does her comfort matter to you? She's my friend! Friend? Are you serious? Friends are a delusion? Where is the logic in having friends? I don't want to be dependent on logic anymore!

Cait gave him a smile and tried to ignore the thoughts coming into her brain. "It's okay, Fred. I know you would help if you could."

"Yes, well..thank you." His mind is relatively calm now as his medication kicks in.

Cait gave him another smile and then left to go find Rachel.
