I don't think anyone particularly likes being meddled with, sentient or aware at the very least. It didn't occur to Kelson at all that he was a giant hypocrite for suggesting such, as he routinely meddled with people's minds. At least at home.

You are very much not crazy. I assure you. Kelson broke the bond, moving his hand slightly away from hers, aware of just how odd it must look to anyone possibly watching that they were just, staring at eachother silently.
