Before his new powers Camilo used to be a social butterfly. Now he only talks to others when necessary.
He was walking around the less populated areas of the town hoping that his telepathy wouldn't pick up on too many people's thoughts. It was only 10 AM but he was already ready for the day to be over.
‘Man this must be what it feels like to be Dolores’ Camilo thought as he walked around the town. Hearing so many different voices in his head at the same time.
His telepathy was similar and completely different to Dolores’s power. While Dolores heard every sound in a mile radius. Camillo heard everyone's thoughts within a 200 meter radius and that's just clearly. He hears the thoughts of the entire town but outside of the radius it's like background noise.
He was so focused on the voices he was hearing he almost bumped into someone but was luckily able to dodge them. ‘Good grief, why are people always showing up when I don't want them to?’ Camilo thought.
He continued walking trying to avoid people and fly under the radar although that wasn't an easy task.
‘Why am I always getting attention? I don't want it anymore,’ Camilo complained internally. ‘I’ll find out why….. 90? Of course im a Madrigal and an Ex-Social butterfly’ The likeability meter showed
(Likeability meter is a telepathic ability that reads how much the people around you like you and sums it up in a number)
‘I can’t exactly bring it down that's around average for a Madrigal even before the collapse and rebuild of Casita Mirabel was probably around 75-85’ Camilo thought ‘Now my family is all probably around 90 like I am’
Then in the middle of his thoughts he heard a familiar voice. “What does she want?” Camilo thought as he turned to face Mirabel.
“Hey Camilo, I was hoping you would head to the town square with me,” Mirabel said. ‘“Why is she choosing me out of everyone?’”
“What for?” Camilo asked not wanting to do it. With as many people in that area as there is it would be awful for him there so now he avoids it as much as possible.
“To find my parents an anniversary gift for the day they got together it's next week” Mirabel replied. ‘I already got my gift for them a week ago. I'm not going there over this,’ Camilo thought.
“Do you need help finding them a gift or do you think I need to get them a gift?” Camilo said. “Because if you need a gift for them they need a new coffee machine”
“Hey thanks Camilo” Mirabel replied as she ran off. Camilo started going the other way to avoid his family, eventually ducking into an alleyway.
‘Where are they I need to know so I don't bump into them’ Camilo thought as he crossed his eyes. ‘Clairvoyance’
(By crossing his eyes he can remotely view a location)
‘As suspected Mirabel is in the town square………….Isabella is in a pottery shop………Dolores is at Casita……..Tio Bruno is a little too close though i'll have to avoid him’ Camilo thought.
He uncrossed his eyes and exited the alleyway making sure to dodge Bruno by any means.
He just didn't have it in him to talk to people today.
