I accept all those kind words though they are not often the ones I hear. Well, the last one anyway.

True. I will make sure it is known no bonking allowed.

I will keep that in mind. Is that another object you got lying around?

well THAT'S gonna have to change
because you're super cute
and someone i'm really happy to have in my life
just so you know ଘ(੭˃ᴗ˂)੭♡

in a locked safe, but otherwise yep!
they're called memory marbles
unlike a lot of the stuff here, where you get an outside perspective of a memory, or you see and hear it from one person's point of view
with these you get that person's thoughts, feelings, the sensations they were experiencing, everything

if that sounds like a lot it's because it is
it's A LOT
(luckily it seems like there's a buffer built in? it's immersive but the memory doesn't imprint as yours in the long term)
but in a pinch it can be really helpful

[dadbeatdad]

Very well. I guess I'll have to get used to it. Woe is me.

Those do sound handy and rather intense. But it could help get through to someone and break barriers of one person assuming they know the thoughts and feelings of another instead of listening to them and believing what they say their thoughts and feelings were.

I'll keep those little marbles in mind, definitely.

nefarious cackle •̀⩊•́

exactly.
i wouldn't recommend them or the rods as a first option for obvious reasons
but! there are use cases, like the one you suggested
they're an objective(-ish) snapshot into another person's subjective world; that's harder to argue with or dismiss than words alone.

and sometimes
SOMETIMES
they can be helpful when you really just can't describe or explain something in enough detail verbally. dad and red son and i used them as a diagnostic tool for a magic problem i had once

anyway!
if these things can make a positive difference in at least one person's life, they're worth sharing
( ˶ˆᗜˆ˵ )
thank you, you're the BEST
