Well, the lack of a complete freak out was very welcome. Something he should have expected here and yet, was still getting used to. No one here had yet to jerk away from him in utter fear and terror and scream about being contaminated. He listened, and felt as she picked up the stone again, images, voices and feelings projected into her mind. And his.

Interesting.

Although Kelson was sure Bay probably wanted a bit more than just 'interesting'. With his free hand, he reached to pick up the stone himself. With a small probe he got. Nothing. Just... a rock.

I'm not getting anything myself. But all that means is that the impression left wasn't especially psychically strong. My guess is you're picking up fragments of impressions left by others. Does it happen with everything or just, randomly?

Kelson would get those impressions, by say, picking up something of someone who was murdered. Not, a first date.

Wait, better ask. You don't normally have magic, do you?
