Subject: Your trip.



I emailed Doug and he explained about the field trip. He sent me a program to make sure email was safe but I do not know if that is just for his email or all emails.

I just wanted to let you know I was up and mostly headache-free now. I am still not sleeping as well as I could, but I am getting rest and not seeing ...

well, I am not seeing quite as much death. Things other than death, yes. But still some death. It is easier to seperate it from what is real now though. Much, much easier.

Angie

P.S. Oh. On the subject of things other than death? Congratulations are in order, I think?

Doug handed out the same little program to everyone when he got here. (Not that I didn't have my own email encryption, but the more the merrier.)

I'm glad you're feeling better. Charles is going to be keeping a close eye on you, so don't be taken aback by that. Keep up with the meditation? I think it might help.

I'll look after Doug for you, too. Don't worry.

Nathan

PS: Heh. Thank you. But keep it to yourself? Moira and I had decided not to share for a couple of weeks. I would ask you what precisely you'd seen, but... nah. I'm willing to be surprised.

Doug is so thoughtful that way. I imagine he was terribly pleased with himself, he usually is when a computer thing works out well.

I am supposed to meet with the Professor tommorow morning before classes. No driving for me until the headaches pass, so I am probably going to arrange to take my history final here instead of on the university campus.

The meditation helps a little so far. It at least makes some of the stranger visions less.. I think the word I want is disjointed?

I am fairly sure that Doug will return home safely. At the least, no visions of his death anymore, so I think that speaks well.

Yes, I will keep quiet about what I saw. Even if it is very, very difficult. And I promise not to use my powers for financial gain when Kitty opens the betting pool.

Just don't push yourself too hard, all right? I know finals are important, but you really need to be minimizing the stress you're under as much as possible.

If it's making your visions less disjointed, it's finally doing something approaching what it should be, then. Promise me you won't punch me the next time I tell you the meditation is worthwhile?

Betting pool. Should I take that to mean that you... no, I wasn't going to ask, was I?

It is a history final. I enjoy those, for the most part. My final papers are mostly done, and the exam itself should be - I believe the expression is 'a cakewalk'? I like history.

Punch you? I thought that was one of the visions I had seen. Damn. Oh blast. Nathan, I am so sorry about that. I was so horrible...

Even if you did ask I am not going to tell.

Re your enjoyment of history: I knew there was a reason I liked you.

No, you weren't horrible. You just weren't yourself. Remember, you're talking to someone who was basically crazed with his precog for months. You got feisty and decided to try and break my jaw. I used to fall apart sobbing on Moira every second day. Wild reactions are very definitely justified in situations like ours.

Speaking of... it is ours, now, by the way. I'm not sure if Moira's told you. Apparently, being in mental contact with you in the midst of all this caused my precog to fire back up. It was starting to head that way in any case - apparently burnout really isn't always permanent - but what happened sped things along. Pretty interesting, actually. It's not at all like it was.

Good. Some things should be a surprise.

I would think it comes with the precognition, the love of history, but I liked it before I knew about the precognition.

... though, that says something, I suppose. Doug tells me he has always liked languages as far as he can remember. Maybe there is something to that?

I tried to break your -jaw-? With my hand? Ow.

My broken precognition turned yours back on? At least something good came out of this I suppose. You are not going to have any more heart-stopping, are you?

You know, I wouldn't be too terribly surprised if there is some connection. But we really do need to sit down and talk some more when I get back. Charles may or may not tell you this himself, but he's figured out that your precog and mine are pretty much polar opposites, now that mine's functioning the way it should have been all along.

And yes, you did. I'm surprised you didn't hurt yourself, actually.

And no. No more heart-stopping.

Look, I've got to run... I'll try and email you back tomorrow, all right? Take care, get lots of rest, and I'll talk to you soon.
