Ghostly Meetings

Kaitlyn had come to the library to find some new and interesting fiction books to read. She'd already chosen a couple, and was just doing a last scan to find anything else. Then she'd heard a voice that definitely was not her brother.

He'd seemed pretty shy, but also pretty friendly. He, too, seemed to be looking for some books.

"Hi!", Kaitlyn began. She couldn't really think of anything else to add besides a simple "I'm Kaitlyn!". She was pretty excited to have met a potential friend; he didn't seem too much older than her.

So, Michael was new to the island too, huh? It was nice to have met another newcomer, as they shared that. Someone else to talk to about it, though he probably couldn't answer any of her questions.

"Oh, really? You're new to the island? So am I!", Kaitlyn said with a small smile. She really was excited to talk to someone else New that was... aroundish her age? He did seem a bit older, though.

"Oh, thanks~", Kait said happily in response to the fact that she seemed nice, her own small smile expanding a bit.

Michael seemed to be adjusting much better than Kaitlyn. Her head was still spinning with all the information; all these supernatural creatures were REAL. Actual things here; not even fiction. It still dazzled her, but she'd have to make due.

"I know what you mean! I'm still getting used to everything, but it's all so cool.." she replied to Michael.

The 'good to read' part made her think. She was completely missing out on books about the island, missing out on actual info that could help her. She quickly scanned the shelves again for one such book, and found one that she may like on the different species on the island. She pulled it off the shelf telekinetically, and added it to her preexisting stack. "I kinda forgot they had books on that here", Kaitlyn admitted. "But I did find some other ones that I liked!", she said, gesturing to her other books.

She could relate to the piles of books, though. She had to resist the urge to check out the entire shelf, so she had limited herself to the few most interesting ones. She was looking forward to reading these ones, and would totally finish them in a flash.

Kait was happy she'd found someone with similar interests, and maintained her smile.

"Yup, I live in the dorms right now", Kait said. "It's a nice--" she began before Michael phased his hand through the book.

Kaitlyn was silent for about 10 seconds. She stared at the book with a blank expression. It must've been a trick, there's no way he could have done that. She reached to the book and tapped it. Solid. She was silent again for another 10 seconds.

She couldn't comprehend it, so it must have been something magical. It was either just his power, or he was a.. Kaitlyn shook her head a bit. Even with all the supernatural stuff, she was still doubtful that ghosts existed. It must have just been his power, like Kaitlyn had her telekinesis. She resumed a calmer expression and continued the conversation.

"Magic and potions shops, huh?", she asked. This actually made sense to her; it was a magical place, of course they would have magic shops.

The phasing thing still made her think, but she wouldn't let her distract her much.

@Saber

Well.. at least he was honest. But still.. people could 'live' after death. It was crazy to think, and Kaitlyn was, to be frank, a bit scared of it. Although, she'd have to go through with the conversation; she could have an existential crisis later. She did, though, stay quiet for a bit longer, contemplating if only just for a moment. She decided to focus on the other question.

Her power. Kaitlyn came here for her telekinesis, and partially her telepathy. Since Michael seemed quite curious, she decided to demonstrate for him. Her eyes focused, and she let go of her books. They remained there, in the air, seemingly suspended in time.

Kaitlyn put her hands under the pile, and relaxed. The books fell back into her hands. "Psychokinesis; or telekinesis" Kaitlyn explained telepathically. "And, as you could see, telepathy", she finished out loud.
