I'm scared to post lol.
I think it says no speed posting :((( *Cries*
Brookes sighed as he waited in line to get his schedule along with all of the other kids. This was all very overwhelming. But by now, he was used to that. He could feel all of their emotions. Every single person within a certain radius of him. And boy did it hurt. He couldn't really identify who's emotions were who's but it always seemed easier when he was closer to the person. For example. The student in front of him was completely and utterly pissed. He didn't even need empathy to know that by the way he looked. Behind him was a girl who was utterly nervous. It made his stomach hurt with all of the nervousness floating in the air. Luckily for Brookes, there weren't really any different emotions. People feeling nervous, confused, or angry. Normal emotions to be had during this time.
Due to the same emotions going on at the same time. Brookes felt very confident that he wasn't going to go completely lucid. But before he knew it, he already was. It's kind of like when you get tired and you are trying to stay awake but you fall asleep anyway. You never really notice it happening until you're woken up. Whenever this happened, the world got so fuzzy and disoriented for Brookes. The emotions all mixed together in some weird blur that he never really understood. He must have been standing still because the girl behind him angrily told him to move forward. Brookes' face contorted with rage and he balled his hand into a fist, forcing it behind him. He was about to punch the girl in the face when he realized he was going crazy again. He froze his hand and whispered under his breath as it fell back to his side. "Sorry."
After grabbing his schedule and noticing that the person handing out the forms was very annoyed and nervous about all of these new students, Brookes went and stood near a tree next to a girl in a wheelchair. He set his backpack down and leaned against it, studying her emotions like he usually did. It became sort of a hobby. Feeling the emotions of others. At first she seemed a little nervous like everybody else but he observed as she pulled out a laptop and began playing music, that she started to calm down. The music itself sounded fairly nice. But he was more interested in talking to her.
Brookes approached the girl and smiled at her. "I see that music calms you down. Do you like music?" He asked, completely forgetting to mention the fact that he was an empath. He always did that. Never taking into consideration that people probably don't know certain things. Probably just a bit of his old personality shining through.

INTERACTION TIME!
if you post first I will interact with Tris. Just sayin :P
Dreadpirate. :PP. Introductory posts make me cry. I'm so bad at them and I don't even have my classes. I wish they were just assigned lol.
I hope you don't mind but I was thinking of having fencing and when I saw you had fencing it was like fate so if you don't mind I'll put that in my class schedule as well.
Vantas is now my favorite person on this forum.
Name: Brookes Durrant
Age:14
Gender:Male
Grade: Ninth
Sexuality: Bi-Sexual
Ability: Enhanced emotional empathic nerves. Brookes' genes have been altered to allow him to sense and control others' feelings to a certain point. With most people, he is able to feel their emotions and that makes him uncomfortable in crowds because most of the time he can't control the ability and experiences too many emotions at once. During times when he feels extreme emotions Brookes is sometimes unable to cope with his emotions as he is used to others' emotions and not his own. This makes the emotion manifest and force it's way into others' minds making them experience the same emotion. Due to this fact, Brookes tries to control his emotions because most of these episodes consist of negative emotions and rarely positive ones. Also to an extent, Brookes is able to take in a single persons emotions so much that he can fully transfer them to himself. The only downside to this part of the ability is that the other person must be conscious of him taking their emotions and must fully agree. So in a way it works as a form of emotional healing for the person.
Mutation: Brookes' eye color tends to change with the dominant emotion he is taking in. And if two emotions are equally strong they split and color each eye differently.
Brief Personality: Brookes is often a very considerate and caring person due to the fact that he experiences the emotions of whoever is around him. Aside from that fact he is prone to psychotic episodes if there are too many people around with emotions that are very different. Also coming along, sometimes instead of a psychotic episode, as a way to cope. Brookes will become very distant and dreamy because the emotions are taking over his mind to a point where he is unable to be fully conscious.
History: Before he came to Darkwood, Brookes was a very uncaring person. Not to put it in a mean way but he wasn't aware of others' emotions. Completely and utterly unaware of social norms or signs. He never knew when somebody was sad until he accidentally said something that made them cry when he was simply trying to state something logical. Due to this, he became a social outcast in his school but he didn't care very much. All he ever needed was himself.
After his powers manifested, Brookes became very caring and empathetic towards anyone he met but it soon became too much for him. The crowded school often induced his dreamy trance state and when his friends asked him what was wrong, he freaked out on them and was soon sent to a mental hospital for his "condition". There, he became less prone to going crazy due to the nature of others around him, he learned how to control the psychotic rampages mostly. Although sometimes it still showed through. But before he could practice more, he was taken away from the hospital and brought to Darkwood to help him control his power even more.
Other Effects: As mentioned before hand. Psychotic episodes are prone to occur if people pester him whilst he is overloaded with emotions. Normally it happens when he is semi-conscious and somebody tries to talk to him too much. Then he gets irritated and the negative emotions overcome the happy ones which is what leads to the episodes.
Class Schedule: I'm bad at this so just give me a second. Sorry.
Other: My favorite color is Dave's writing because it tastes delicious. *Licks computer screen.* Also I'm completely fine with any edits you wish for me to make. I know this seems kind of powerful and also this isn't very well written. :(
