Tara looked around before nodding uncertanaitly. She meant to pick up the first item, the pocketwatch, but before she could she flet something in her hand. i was warm and soft. She looked down in suorise. it was the teddy bear. She didn't conciously remember picking it up, but it already felt warm from being in her palm. She closed her eyes and opened the floodgates of her mind. After about a second she got something. not solid pictures or things, but emotions. they were scattered and confusing, but she could tell childish innocence and joy. Then the emotions changed. they were feelings of confusion and understanding, of frustration and growing, of that of a teenager. then she felt maturity and wisdom and once again the joy of small hands. and the cycle repeated itself. She opened her eyes and understood. The item had lived a long and full life, passed down from person to person in a family. She couldn't help but smile at the recolloection.

"Aha! Good!" Swoon exclamed seeing from her expression that she did, in fact, possess OER, "So, I guess we're done. I'm gonna go ahead and say you definitly have Empathy. However, I'm going to take this information and my department with look into the possibility of you having more than just your basic empathetic power. If anything else comes up please don't hesitate to let me know, the smallest change in your powers could mean the development of a new one!"
"Thanks doc" Cricket said.
"Anytime dear! Send Amelia over sometime. I have some new tests I would like to run on a proper subject." Swoon replied his mouth twisting into a creepy grin.
"Your one screwed up person doc. Will do."

"Thanks for your help," Tara said as she left. She was walking back with Cricket and Ananka. "I still can't believe i'm phsycic. it's all really weird." They got back to where the other Irregulars were and Tara walked over to Amelia. "You were in my dream," she said.

Amelia smiled kindly and nodded. Then she turned to Cricekt and gave her a penetrating stare.
"Yah yah ok. I don't have a problem with that. But you're gonna tell her and train her in most stuff."
Amelia sighed. She didn't usually speak without her brother joining her in unison, "You'll have to join us in our lessons. We usually meet in a booth at our cafe on tuesdays. Does that work for you?" She asked quietly.

"No problem," Tara said. "Did Kiki tell you everything you need to know about what you're doing here?"

"Yup" The twins said together.
"We're going to use my current house as the base for this experiment. Verushka and I are moving soon anyway. The place has privacy issues so it should be perfect for our little switch" Kiki said.

"Ok," Tara said. "What are we doing with Bethan and Ash during this?"

"Why don't we just do a direct switch?" Kiki asked.
"Would mom and dad be fooled though? Their both girls, can one of them pass as a guy?" Alistair asked.
"Well...Bethan could be Amelia cause she doesn't talk, Ash could probably pass as you for a while...but its gonna be difficult. What if we beg mom and dad to let us go on a camping trip of sorts. Rent out a hotel room, study, those excuses they would buy. Then by the end of our long weekend we'd be good to go. Ash and Bethan could just hang with me in the hotel room for a few days, use the pool and whatnot." Cricket said.

"That'd probably work," Kiki agreed. "Why don't you call your parents and ask?"

OOC: Just a note: Ash is twelve and Bethan is eight so there would be a height difference

OOC: We can fix that, the switching places thing on Ash and Bethans side, no prob. cause they won't even have to dress up like the twins. Then one of the twins can wear platform shoes.
IC: "Ok then. One of you has to wear heels" Betty said turning to the twins.
"Amelia's doing it. Theres no way I'm compromising my gender to that degree" Alistair said quickly, hands up as if fending off assult.
"Oh shut up. You've compromised your gender so many times your more girl than boy" Amelia whispered.
Cricket smacks both twins upside the head.
"Both of you pipe down. You'll do what works best."

"And maybe Bethan can where heels so that she's the same height as Ash, if she doesn't mind," Tara suggested.

"Good idea. They could be seen when we're getting them out of here." Kiki praised, "Ok, masters of disguise, do your worst....I mean, best"

"Best, worse, it's all the same, isn't it?" asked Betty. Half an hour later you never would have recognized them. It was kinda crazy. I can't believe I'm dressed like a boy Bethan signed. "Well believe it," Ash shot back at the strange looks she shrugged. "She was just commenting that she can't believe how much fun this is going to be."

"How are we going to keep your parents from noticing?" asked Ash "I mean we will have to take a bath at some point and then all this will get ruined" she indicated Betty's makeover "Just not take a bath. Ever" suggested Bethan completely serious
