[OPENING] mass visual telepathy log

[spellheal]

[Genette has provided everyone a portion of mirror, which they're free to do whatever they want to with it BUT the idea is that they introduce themselves to the telepathy network with a video feed, showcasing their face. Otherwise, the coven might just get an endless stream of grass, sand or hut wall.

If you're willing to commit to the exercise, here is your intro log for doing so! Hold up the mirror piece, introduce yourself and receive a broadcast from your fellow mages.

Because this is an open post, tag around like you would a typical log community post!]

This is the only demonstration I've seen.

[His end looks like bad watercolors now, and in fact is starting to swirl like them, too. He's doing his best! At doing his worst!]

[ as amusing as this is, the whirls are beginning to give her a headache, and when she's already concentrating this much just to be seen... ]

You really are bad at this, aren't you? [ a sigh. ] Listen, just relax and focus on yourself in the mirror. Don't think about anything else. Once you feel grounded, visualize yourself transmitting what you're seeing with your mind's eye.

Sorry. We don't have... telepathy where I'm from.

[It's hard to see, but he's scratching his head and trying his best to comply. To him, it just seems like he's staring really hard at a piece of mirror and the beach behind it, but maybe it's doing something...?

The image steadies, at least, and resolves into the sand behind him. It's still a little fuzzy around the edges of himself, because visualizing himself is a somewhat odd order, but he's no longer a swirly blob!]

Does that work?

[ex_tenzoku558]

[ talking inside of someone's head isn't quite the same, but still more akin to telepathy than what most have ever experienced. ]

Not great, but it's a start.

[ consider that encouragement. ]

[probablynoteren]

Thanks. You're good at this.

[It's possible he means her skill at telepathy, her skill at teaching, or... both? Still diligently fixing himself in the mirror over here. It would be easier if he could see himself, but that would actually defeat the purpose here. Confusing.

Basically he's a really slowly loading JPEG right now, bear with him.]
