MoM; ᴛᴇʟᴇᴘᴀᴛʜʏ ᴘᴇʀᴍɪssɪᴏɴs



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!



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?: Yes.
Does your character have any mental blocks?: If possible, I'd like Hannibal's mysteriously unspecified traumatic past to be blocked. Also, thing related to the next question apply.
Can Thomas poke around in your character's head/explore beyond just communication?: Yes. Ask me what he will see and what things look like, please. I'll be happy to detail. It should all look like a literal memory palace with pretentious art and such everywhere. Also lots of religious symbols.
To what extent is it cool for Thomas to explore you dude's brainpan?: Bits of disconnected conversations. Memories that are in the form of still art and paintings, which if connected by chronological order as one might piece together a puzzle, you may find murder scenes, and a lot of his one-on-one patient sessions with people. More recent memories might be audible in the form of echoes, while wandering through the halls. Might be kind of like listening to an audio tape with fluctuating volume.
What kind of stuff would be cool to Thomas to dig up, if he spends more time snooping in your character's head?: The outrageous expanse of artistic crap he has e v e r y w h e r e would impress most people, in its vivid and accurate detail.
What stuff do you NOT want Thomas digging up in your character's head? His past, relating to his sister. This is something I've said is blocked, because he has it blocked himself. I would have it be accessible with digging, but I'd prefer to just keep it out since show canon never specified exactly what happened to him in his childhood regarding cannibalism and his sister. Maybe he'll see her name somewhere and bring that up and all he gets will be a cold glare.
Can Thomas do any mental suggestion/mind control stuff with your dude?: I'd prefer him not to, but I don't have a power-based, legitimate reason for why he wouldn't be able to. If you have some funny idea, let me know... I'm open to things. :)
Do you want to do any kind of bleed over thoughts/feelings/memories if Thomas is flipping his shit while mentally connected?: Sure!
