ＭｏＭ; ᴛᴇʟᴇᴘᴀᴛʜʏ ᴘᴇʀᴍɪssɪᴏɴs

[shuckit]

Thomas has limited telepathy within canon, and in MoM that's getting flushed out to be a regular, all around power, so with the same sort general restrictions typical telepathy would have - talking in another person's mind, reading surface and deeper thoughts + memories, sending images or notions, etc. Last round in MoM, he did a lot of experimenting with trying out mental suggestion as well. So, with things like "my ID totally says I'm 18 and not 16" or "my tattoo totally says I'm Registered and not that I'm Unsettled", he ought to be good, and the more advanced things like actually making other people say and do things, he'll be working on now, and training to e better with.

Another thing that I played with back when he suuuper sucked was Thomas having moments of mental bleed over? Like, when talking to Grey in his head, he wasn't able to totally keep all of himself out of the mental link, and some thoughts and feelings and memories etc would transfer over. Since he no longer TOTALLY SUCKS at this, it doesn't really make a lot of sense for it to be happening a lot, BUT in really intense moments, or times that Thomas is really stressed/upset/freaking out, since his mental stabilty is so tenuous just by virtue of how deeply traumatized he is in general, this is still a possibility, if people want to play with it? Just be forewarned, Thomas's head is a mess of content warnings, so there can be some pretty intense stuff that comes through if Thomas is caught at a serious freak out moment.

FOR OTHER TELEPATHS LOOKING INTO HIS HEAD, Thomas DOES have mental defenses now, taught to him by Emma, and there's more about that in his general permissions that I'll link down before. However, if we do have your dude get into Thomas's head (which I'm up for working out), it's a really dark place with a lot of bad, bad memories, often pretty close to the surface. Suffice to say, there will be super spoilers for The Maze Runner novel series, and warnings for human/child experimentation, scary monsters, torture, death, sad stuff. As for Thomas's own mental informations, please check out his general permissions!

So, yeah, permissions! Please fill this stuff out for me!

<b>Character Name + Journal:</b> <b>Can Thomas talk/send images/send notions into your character's mind?:</b> <b>Does your character have any mental blocks?:</b> <b>Can Thomas poke around in your character's head/explore beyond just communication?:</b> <b>To what extent is it cool for Thomas to explore you dude's brainpan?:</b> From vague surface thoughts down into deeper thoughts and more buried things. <b>What kind of stuff would be cool to Thomas to dig up, if he spends more time snooping in your character's head?:</b> General mood, thought process, do they have like 8493048321 people talking in their head, etc, whatever you want to put here? <b>What stuff do you NOT want Thomas digging up in your character's head?</b> Stuff I will OOCly make sure is not touched on. <b>Can Thomas do any mental suggestion/mind control stuff with your dude?:</b> Anything from having your character see something that isn't there, or making them run and idk jump off a bridge (he will not make them run and jump off a bridge). I'll always contact you before I have him actually make your character physically do something, because I don't want to godmode anything, but yeah, this is just to get an idea of what you're up for. <b>Do you want to do any kind of bleed over thoughts/feelings/memories if Thomas is flipping his shit while mentally connected?:</b> As stated above, if Thomas is really upset/panicking/worked up, he can be prone to overshooting his telepathic brain-links and sending more of himself than he means to, without really realizing. So your dude might get some flashes of what Thomas is thinking of feeling or short images of memory that happen to be on his mind? Idk. This was fun to play with before, so keeping it a little bit for some stuff. <b>Contact?:</b> Preferred method of contact for me to hit up if I have a question about their mind chatter that I need to ask you before tagging o7 <b>Anything else?:</b> idek

If you answered yes, it's cool for Thomas to read your dude's mind, if you guys could do me a solid, and when it comes up in a thread, leave something in the small text/narrative stuff about their thoughts that Thomas is allowed/should be able to pick up on, that would be super fantastic. Just so I don't have to guess or go stalk you down oocly o7

If you guys need to reach me to go over some of this stuff in depth or if you have other questions idk, feel free to hit me up hurr:

Can Thomas talk/send images/send notions into your character's mind?
M'gann: Yes, yep. M'gann would love it.
Annie: Yep!

Can Thomas poke around in your character's head?
M'gann: He can try and stuff. M'gann's really good at only sharing what she likes- unless Thomas is like super serial good at his mind powers.
Annie: Sure. Although when her intangibility is in flux and she's 'ghosting', I'd say it would be really difficult to pick up try and get any sort of link with her mind.

To what extent is it cool for Thomas to explore you dude's brainpan?
M'gann: Surface thoughts, since that's all he'd canonly be able to get to (for now). Or whatever else she decides he can get to.
Annie: Surface thoughts are good! A few deeper thoughts are fine, too. She's basically fair game while she's corporeal.

What kind of stuff would be cool to Thomas to dig up, if he spends more time snooping in your character's head?
M'gann: General mood definitely; she's a walking feels bucket. Also she can be REALLY blunt and awkward with her thoughts, so don't blush or anything.
Annie: Anything about her death, most likely. Or being dead. Or Purgatory and how she's very recently thinking about crossing over- except now she's alive again and that's weird.

What stuff do you NOT want Thomas digging up in your character's head?
M'gann: Not sure how it would come up, but anything to do with her 'true form' and her being a white martian and stuff.
Annie: n/a for now. Fair game for anything.

Do you want to do any kind of bleed over stuff while Thomas still sucks at using this power?
M'gann: That would be super awesome. M'gann would be able to deal with it fairly well- although if it happened without warning she'd probably retaliate a little.
Annie: Yes pls.

Contact? PM on plurk! (@dorkwolf) is me.

Anything else? Can they be brain buddies???

[shuckit]

baw, they can totally be brain buddies man! 8D he'll be really hesistant to get into it, but once they're bros, he'd pretty much love being able to just think at her :'| he hates having to explain thoughts to people lmao he is such a social fail

[bioshift]

yes good think thoughts at her she will be so hideously relieved to have that sort of connection again okay people are so stingy about it.

and i mean in fairness shes kind of a social fail too. except she can be weirdly popular.

[shuckit]

awww ;; in canon thomas had a super limited telepathy that just let him talk with one other girl and so he's missing that connection now too ;; it'll be nice to have another.

fjdklsa this is...... also a thing that happens with him... sob.

[bioshift]

that is something i did not know about thomas! but also super cool. and yes that connection will be awesome s-sob

they can be weirdo uncomfortable popular kids together then yep

[shuckit]

yep! idk if you've seen the movie, but the telepathy stuff is only in the book. it would have been really hard to work into the film i think D:

fdhkj crying, right
